When I was finishing high school I was introduced to an interest in programming through finding the limits of a composition applet on my Nokia (which was probably a 6300 but I'm away from home and unable to check).
I know this is an unrelated tangent but does anybody have any links that talk about the one or more of the composition apps or applets for smartphones or feature phones from that time period? Symbian, early versions of iOS, J2ME, I'll happily take anything on offer.
Looking at the article, the statement they display to blocked users could do with either a change in tone to be more legally formal or a change in tone to be more approachable to less-literate users - bullet points, multiple headings etc. Right now that message is the worst of both worlds and will get a very low conversion rate.
I've been away from this line of work for over a year, though. Does anybody here who has current experience in effective messaging, legal communication or marketing want to read the message Mindgeek put up and give their two cents on it for our entertainment?
It's not applicable. The theorem applies to the boundary of 1+2n dimensional balls - surface of an ordinary sphere, bulk of a 5-ball, 6-surface of a 7-ball, etc.
I see where my post above was unclear. For the theorem to apply to a 1+2n dimensional object, the vector field on the 2n dimensional surface of the object must be restricted to the surface - it must be tangent to the object everywhere.
The proton is fully 3-dimensional AFAICT so the vector field on the surface (if it has a surface, I'm not a physicist) can have non-tangent components, pointing inwards or outwards.
Giving the police expanded powers won't backfire the next time an authoritarian-adjacent party wins an election, will it? After all, look how well the enabling act turned out for the lawmakers who passed it.
Like the current one? It is definitely the most authoritarian (Canadian) government I've witnessed in my lifetime and this article is completely in line with what they've been working towards (the CBC is known to be in bed with the government) but apparently accusing conservatives of what they're doing fools a good amount of people.
Few people are asking why such a large proportion of the public are easily scammed, a status which is different to prior eras. The answer isn't education, fyi.
These people weren't scammed, they were defrauded. They were promised one thing and delivered another. The event organisers simply lied so as to inflate the price they could charge for a thing that was worth dramatically less (arguably nothing). The extent of that gap constitutes a form of theft, and the organisers should be charged accordingly.
The people who bought tickets weren't gullible or stupid, any more than you would be buying a ticket to a festival with your favourite bands only to rock up and find there are no bands. #fyrefestival

How is it different from other eras? Take for example all the different prophets who had literally millions of people scammed since the dawn of history.
After looking at your comment history and seeing your track record of being totally and consistently wrong, I'd say: definitely yeah no. And you replying "No yes" just makes it yeaher and noer. It's you, not "most people".
Your perspective is the product of a rebellious worldview two decades out of date. Your enemies are long dead and your ideas long purposeless. We've contorted ourselves legislating freedom to people who squander it. No group or force limits the common man anymore save himself and the state.
People have shorter lives, less children, lower IQ, lower income, less friends, less wealth, less homes, and less happiness. Your system is broken and your answer is more of the same.
Unsure why it's capitalized in the article (it shouldn't be, consider terms like ice giant and sub-Jupiter or even the hycean planet Wikipedia page) but I'll point out that there's a pun there you've missed. High seas.
Not mentioned: do amateur paintings by others with the same techniques as Pollock produce features with a similar fractal dimension? My question is intended as a proxy for investigating how much of Pollock's quality is integral to the method regardless of artist skill.
Scale. Providing accurate recommendation algorithms for thousands+++ of people across thousands+++ of data items is surprisingly expensive in compute and electricity. For any one user, sure you can do whatever you like. When you divide your resources across your userbase the prices get larger and larger.
Sam Altman said something about Instagram which is interesting. He said at midnight, the quality of the recommendations is higher because few people are on the platform.
Does it mean at peak hours IG switches to a simpler algorithm?
Otherwise, why would the quality of a RS drop during those hours?
I bet their recommendation algorithms use some kind of iterative refinement to keep recommendations "fresh" and that at midnight it's just done with lower latency.
The idea that you can substitute a culture of company 'lore' for paying millennial and generation z staff well as a way of engendering employee loyalty has some merit. Human psychology is susceptible to exactly this.
Unfortunately, this guarantees the loyalty of some mediocre employees at the cost of likely alienating the highest performers.
This CNN article is just a tweaked copypaste of earlier FT reporting. The FT article has no sources and a credulous comment section, some of whom are alleging that ChatGPT is an equally reliable source:
https://www.ft.com/content/d6b2e4d6-2f84-4ef9-bf99-10d76d92d...
The FT article says that dozens of state-owned enterprises have set up PAFDs in the last 12 months but fails to mention that China has over a million SOEs.
Confusingly, the system for enlisted infantry recruiters also uses the PAFD acronym which means that regardless of search engine, half the results (War on the Rocks, RAND, Asian LII, JSTOR, DoD, DTIC, mod.gov.cn) are useless.
.
Anyway, let's suppose that it is happening as CNN/FT reports. There is an important context question: Is this an order from the CPC at the top or is this our perspective of an ordinary corporate fad in China, their equivalent to six sigma?
