Seems I need to read up more on the specifics of MMT. It feels like you keep contradicting yourself between your posts, but maybe I’m just missing something?

Is that right? I thought the general notion is that demand outpacing supply causes inflation. Doesnt printing money inherently increase demand? That’s why the Fed raised interest rates to fight inflation in the US, it slows money down by making things more expensive (in simplistic terms).

Every senate/house seat the Democrata win makes it all the harder for Republicans to pass any significant legislation.

Just look at what happened with both Trump and Biden. Slim majorities in both house and senate led to a lot of legislation getting killed. Just recall how long it took the house to pick a speaker, while Republicans may have a majority it doesn’t mean they can weild it.

Yeah, I only bring it up because Harris’ primary goal is to win the election. It sucks, but Israel is only one element of this election and the public isn’t in agreement with it. Harris could even want to be more aggressive on it, but can’t sacrifice the election.

At the end of the day, there are two candidates. In a fptp system, you’ve got to vote for the better of the two candidates. Not voting for Harris is enabling Trump and will only lead to a worse situation in Israel.

Why do you think she’d gain more voters than loose by changing her stance on Israel? There are clearly people out there who support Israel otherwise it wouldn’t even be up for debate. I haven’t seen anything indicating she’d pick up more voters by changing her stance (which is still better than Trumps).

I thought it might be cause Healthcare is just getting worse in general, not sure if that would be any better.

Fair point then about the arguement around safety. For me the bigger issue is control. Cars with kill switches and conditions to use is a slippery slope. Just look at what’s happened with software and media. Don’t want to have to pirate my car or load custom firmware so I can use it as I want.

I don’t think there is a car where the seat belt is tied to anything besides a little notification beep. Seems like a different situation if the “safety” feature dictates how the car is used.

It’s probably because your comment shows a lack of understanding of the region. A demilitarized Israel is a destroyed Israel. They’ve been attacked by every surrounding state multiple times. Hamas, Lebanon/Hezbollah, and Iran have been consistently firing rockets into Israel for years.

The reason why these conflicts are so complicated is that both sides have done so many horrible things that no one is on the “right” side of history. It’s like trying to argue who was the good guy in all the wars of Medival Europe.

Do you still use WASM? I’ve been exploring the space and wasn’t sure what the best tools are for developing in that space.

Thanks for the answer. Sounds like they’re still well within the 72 weeks if I understand that correctly?

As for everyone down voting me, I’m not sure what the issue is. I didn’t say people shouldn’t get sick leave, but that society should be responsible rather than an individual corporation (that also doesn’t mean corporations shouldn’t pay into social services).

A reason for that is that if enough people are on payroll and not working it could end a business. The end result would be business attempting to avoid hiring anyone who could end up on long term sick leave.

It mentions these are people who have been on sick leave for over 9 months. I don’t know how sick leave works in Germany, but isn’t there a point where the leave has effectively turned permanent and the slack should be picked up by social services rather than a private business?

Just cause the wording is a bit weird in the post qbove, to clarify:

Justice Sotomayor, Justice Kagan, and Justice Jackson would grant the application for stay of execution of sentence of death.

This is just the estimates to train the model, so it’s not accounting for the cost to develop the system for training, collecting the data, etc. This is just pure processing cost, which is staggeringly large numbers.

LLMs do suck at math, if you look into it, the o1 models actually escape the LLM output and write a python function to calculate the output, I’ve been able to break their math functions by asking for functions that use math not in the standard Python library.

I know someone also wrote a wolfram integration to help solve LLMs math problems.

Not sure if you’re serious, but they were making a joke because Intel, who makes chips, is a competitor to TMSC the chip manufacturer from the article.

So they played on that relationship by treating the word Intel in your “thanks for the Intel” comment as meaning the company.

Just read up more about the systems and always thought they charged you more, didn’t realize that for the time being they are zero interest loans.

Seems unsustainable, but sounds like they’re using the credit card technique of charing the storefront. It’ll be interesting to see where the bnpl industry goes.

Has Israel/Mossad ever actually called for the eradication of all Muslims? I know Hamas, Iran, Hezbollah, Lebanon, Egypt, etc. have all called for and actively tried to eradicate Israel (and many of them have/do call for the eradication Jews in general), but I’m not aware of Israel doing the same.

Why be the bad guy when you can just enable them.
