I once alerted our admins because the voicemail of my boss got auto-transcribed so badly that it read like a horribly written spam mail sent from her email address.

It mixed French, English, Japanese and Hindi in maybe 3 lines of text and the French and English parts had a subtle erotic touch to them

Production speed scaling due to hatches.

If you want 6 carriers at the same time, build 6 starports.

If you want 6 ultralisks or 6 mutas at the same time, build 2 hatches (which you already have)

One consequence of this is that changing army composition as Z is very easy.

25-tonne stones for 18km in case you wondered

This ignores the fact that there are also things that China does better or equal than Western companies. Like robots, solar panels, electric cars (?), AI models, electronics.

They must be good at something, otherwise China wouldn't be where it is.

So flat out dismissing anything from China is not enough of an argument.

Mind you, I'm not saying you're generally wrong, just your "generally" is wrong. ;-)

I think my main issue is that the spectrum goes from

entire melon -> salad -> slush? -> beverage

with decreasing side length of the cut pieces.

So both the fixed structure from your definition (" Salads are dishes without a fixed structure") and solid/liquid definition don't feel really tangible to me. YMMV

Watermelon salad?

To stay with your analogy, there is no technical obstacle to treating the customer of 15 years differently to the newly onboarded one.

They have all the data they need, and they choose not to use it.

Found this, source: https://fightchatcontrol.eu/

On 7 July, MEPs voted 331–303 to fast-track the return of Chat Control 1.0 mass scanning. A binding vote follows Thursday, 9 July, where an absolute majority of 361 MEPs is needed to stop it. Take action now to demand they defend your private messages.

"Yes" means stop control, because it's a "proposition de rejet" we're looking at. rejet = reject. Parties in favor of chat control were:

- European People’s Party and

- Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats.

Countries in favor of chat control were:

Spain, Poland, Romania, Sweden, Hungary, Portugal, Greece, Ireland, Lithuania, Latvia, Cyprus

If you look at the initial vote from July 7, there are a few countries who actually wanted to make it an "urgent decision" (other than the countries above):

France, Czechia, Finland, Croatia, Luxembourg

I'm on my cell phone and I couldn't figure out what diseases can be treated on the site. I'd say it's donor focused and not patient focused

Are you saying Microsoft ever paid damages for problems with Windows (e.g. a non-bootable computer after an OS update)?

I think they didn't, so I don't see why them having the responsibility matters.

There is a kind of naiveté, also at EU level, where people think that once it's a law, bad actors will just fold.

They minds are somehow unable to comprehend that only the good actors will fold and only bad actors will be left.

Other examples are: Firearms possession, supply chain law regarding human rights and child labor.

Forgive my ignorance but aren't they already on huggingface?

I assumed turboquant optimizations are already everywhere - in llama-cpp, or the quantization machinery of unsloth and the likes.

Luxembourg: Purchase price = 2 x sales price, mostly due to grid costs.

And this is with no income tax or VAT on sold electricity.

Isn't the bomb argument actually a statement about (the current way we implement) democracy?

Maybe it's the separation of powers that's not working...

If I understand correctly, I see all your points as potential rewards.

These rewards are useful to the US if they accomplish regime change to a friendly regime or at least military occupation of a good strip of land.

The article is about how these two preconditions for obtaining the rewards are unlikely to be fulfilled and, at the same time, non-accomplishment might achieve the opposite:

- Iran (and by necessity, other Gulf states if they want to export oil) align more with China

- US-partnership will not provide security (Arab states, South Korea and other allies are now less secure and the US can't protect them)

- US and allies are in a worse position to secure South America

Huge risk with little chances of a reward. That's the article.

Modifying the rewards does not change the game unless the probability of obtaining them increases or that of the risks decreases.

Can you point out a better source or the major points that become invalid due to other circumstances?

Useful for evaluating people as well

Is there some sort of injection that's a legal host name?

Great article with lots of practical ways to implement it. In my view this is a superpower and I find I can usually do it if I'm not stressed or tired.

As follow-up thoughts:

- It's important whom you listen to. Consider it a gift you're giving and give it only to those who you think deserve and not abuse it or make you consistently feel bad about something.

- Those listeners are also very healthy in/for a group,e.g., at work.

- Listening is a big part of managing a team. People's thoughts are often all over the place and it's your job (partly) to structure these, within a person and a across a team. People that feel heard are much more inclined to listen.

- For starters: Just make an effort to ask five open-ended questions in every conversation you have. You will see how people open up after some time. This also works for family, dates, colleagues, ...

If you're good enough at killing lighthouse projects you can defer that.

One could almost say "Embrace the penguin"

Good point.

Tangentially, you could ask: Are you addicted to being useful or to being recognized as useful.

One is your own need, the other often a covered contract where you lash out or silently resign if you don't get the recognition that you think you deserve.

Increased security for "unapproved" leaders of a state. Allies will help out of fear instead of common goals. Resentment among allies. Appeasement until counter control is effective

I just played one (can iI play any of the past ones?)

But this should be mandatory game-theoretic education for politicians (if it really is what I think it is).

Once you assume that any collection of Straussian meme examples is itself a Straussian meme example, you're free to start with the worst examples

And maybe that's the higher reading.
