I can see why you don't want competition from other hateful demented people on the rampage.

That is like me hoping I'll win the lottery. I don't play.

Well done, have a cookie! Unfortunately you failed to take the next step. If population density isn't uniform then literally none of the overall population density based arguments make sense.

Those areas to dense for even EVs? Perfect fit for efficient, high quality public transit, and good pedestrian and bike infrastructure because you have a population density of higher than inner London.

In order to know which weight to change, don't you need to understand the complete model first

Basically: no.

In the most straightforward case of training with SGD on labelled data, you don't need to understand the model, you just know what the output is, what it should be and what the differential is with respect to all the weights. Then you take a step in that direction. No understanding needed.

The same holds for other cases. Let's say you get a data set of things the network does badly on in a certain way (like weird repetitions). You can run the network and see which activations consistently pop up with high values relative to a control set. You can then go and down weight them which can suppress the behaviour, for example.

Not read the paper yet but those are two examples.

Unless you have offstreet parking

The USA is so spread out that everyone needs to drive gasoline cars everywhere yet somehow so compact no one has a drive to charge an EV.

So now pedophiles can rebrand themselves as head starting intimacy enableization experts

I wrote: "I have to note, I was born in poverty, and worked myself up to around top 10 percent. Zero help. Put myself through college, built a salable skillset. Doing 6 figures in retirement." You replied: "Not sure how you mean that. You had the background, the skill, and the help you needed."

No, I did it all by myself. You quite clearly disagreed. Now explain how I got the help I needed.

I shall defer to Merriam WebsterYou can correct them if you decree they are in error

Capitalism - "an economic system characterized by private or corporate ownership of capital goods, by investments that are determined by private decision, and by prices, production, and the distribution of goods that are determined mainly by competition in a free market."

There is not a free market. That's the problem - Free markets only last until those at the top decide they don't want a free market - they want to ensure their financial dominance. That's the problem with capitalism. It eventually destroys itself.

Corporatism - "the organization of a society into industrial and professional corporations serving as organs of political representation and exercising control over persons and activities within their jurisdiction." There is a difference. Parts of each might be in each, but when claiming that the USA is a capitalist country - well, none of the social benefits would exist, and we do have social benefits.

In a pure capitalist country, the only people who have any power are those with the capital, and in the free market, the rule is pay as you go for every single thing. That shouldn't even be nuance.

The police noted that they were following a "credible lead".

So I would suggest that everyone who has a 2012 Hyundai Elantra, either hide it or get rid of it. Because the towing and impound are completely justified in FlockWorld.

Are the cameras still there? Don't for a minute think that they aren't, don't for a minute think that the same "mistake" won't happen again. Just like the woman who was stopped twice at gunpoint over a couple days the problems in the database do not get fixed. Flock has now identified this woman as the enemy, and the police will follow the orders of the Panopticon.

Computers did not, steam engine did not, cars did not.

I don't think you are right about that. They've all caused absolutely massive changes. Steam engines drove the industrial revolution.

lol oops trying to avoid the lameness filter which hates the Nahtzees. We all know who invented the modern highway!

Apparently slashdot doesn't like mention of the third empire, Nahtzees or Hartler.

It's ironic that you complain about the military while using the internet; which is based on the work done by the US military when it developed ARPANET sixty years ago.

And the web was invented by civilians working on basic science research.

Food preservation

People have been working on food preservation for millennia. Refrigeration via artificial means (i.e. not using natural ice) was invented by civilians (one cycle even invented by Einstein). Freeze drying apparently is very old, since you can do it in very cold climates using the weather. Modern freeze drying was invented by a civilian but it a heavily adopted by the military from near obscurity.

GPS: sure.

Radar: sure, the military put a lot of work in, but it didn't start there.

Nylon: nothing to do with the military
Epipens: autoinjectors or adrenaline? Autoinjectors predate military use and while they were basically the first major adopter, those ones are nothing like epipens.

And highways? You know who ELSE liked highways :) The modern highway (special intersections, separated carriageways, type restrictions) was a creation of the for the greater glory of the as something of a propaganda/self aggrandizement tool. For it to work well the dictator pushed for a "people's car", or in German, Volkswagen.

Superglue... kinda, but only kinda.

And duct tape, sure, but a lot of the heavy lifting, like pressure sensitive adhesives and tearable cloth tape was done in the civilian world. But that specific formulation with the plastic coating? OK sure.

Most of these things were initially developed without military funding. In some cases, like RADAR and GPS, the funding advanced them hugely in a short time. And in some cases it was the initial impetus for building them in America (interstates). Though in most cases this is a deeply inefficient way to go about it.

Yay another perpetual motion machine!

If you hand me a working reactionless thruster[*] I can hand you back a perpetual motion machine. If you don't believe in free energy then you cannot believe in reactionless drives either[+].

[*]more efficient than a photon rocket.

[+]Well for certain values of "you". There are some people here who will just screech invective when presented with basic physic, so it turns out a person can continue to believe hi angel'o'sphere

Do you think every CVE out there has a fired human associated with it? In order to have a sensible discussion about how LLMs relate to security relative to people you need to be realistic about people.

Yes, and?

Even if you tell a human programmer to make no mistakes, they'll still write security holes. Yeah no shit LLMs aren't perfect. Neither are humans.

LLMs will cheerfully write egregiously bad ones unless you tell it not to. I find that a bit strange.
