Let it sit overnight in the fridge (if you didn't already eat it all). It will be milder tomorrow.

It is my understanding that the statues that he's being charged under do not depend on the classification of the documents. The problem is that the documents belonged to the government and were not returned upon multiple requests. Therefore, even if the documents were declassified, which they were not, the same charges could still be brought against him.

There are a few games that you might miss out on with this method. Some devs (it's not many) list their games at what they think is a fair forever price and will not ever offer the game at a reduced price. Again, this isn't a lot of devs, but one notable one is Wube, makers of Factorio.

I generally agree with your method, mostly because I have a large enough backlog to be able to wait for sales, but it is also worth doing research on some devs to see if a sale will ever happen.

It also has a much larger potential audience; wider age range and interested peoples.

The section with the burning buildings and the big guy in the middle of the court yard just past the shallow water?

If that's the section you mean, then you can safely come back after progressing the main line a little more. Getting the axe and the beating the guy on the horse are good pre-requisites. That will align the difficulty to be more consistent with the main line path.

Oh, wow, sorry. It's just Thomas that's throwing it way off. My bad.

Also, I wasn't disagreeing with your point at all. You're absolutely right. Just that somewhere you had an extra zero, but it doesn't change your point at all: judges are cheap and a billionaire could easily buy them all for a small fraction of their wealth.

You added a zero somewhere.

Also, it seems like justices are charging on the order of 1 million, so a billion dollars gets 1000 judges. Still plenty for them to get whatever they want.

That's just how numbers work. Those aren't exponential increases, they are proportional. 30% will always be 30%.

There's no benefit to sensationalizing the math.

This would be campaign spending, not military spending. Even if it was, the budget is decided by congress, not the president.

Some these Russian trolls are so terrible.

This assumes that there is a general level of benevolence and altruism in tech companies. There might be some, but probably not enough.

I should say that I absolutely would love if your idea (or credit to the original creator) actually happen. It would be fantastic and I would much prefer that world to what I think we're going to get.

I think my original two questions still stand:

1. Does journalism/arts/scientific publishing produce enough content and varied enough content to be sufficient to training the models? I doubt it because let's say there are 500,000,000 (500M) authors/creators that could be supported by their efforts. That's a small number compared to several billion people posting on social media, blogs, forums, etc. They also post on a much more broad set of topics. If the tech companies were benevolent and did pay for content, how many more authors and creators could they create? Let's say they double it, that's another 500M people (we'll assume that many more people are even available for these professions). They all need salaries let's say they each make 60000/year. That's 30 trillion in expenses/salaries. Even playing with the numbers some, half the people, half the salary and the number is still in the trillions. And that's probably still not enough content and isn't even close to the output of several billion people. I think the actual solution would be to partner with social media companies (like they already are) to find ways of inticing more participation to get additional data, but even that probably isn't enough if we believe the original study

2. Why partner with newspapers, scientific journals, whatever for likely pretty high fees? Currently, they can subscribe to all the journals, newspapers, etc for probably less than a million/year. That's cheap for them, they probably already did it. They are probably paying reddit more than that alone. Right now, Facebook is probably negotiating on their treasure trove to get Zuckerberg his next billion dollar bonus.

Overall, I don't think they are interested in quality data, I think they just want more. Pretty soon they will have consumed everything ever produced (that's in a format that can be digested) and humanity it's entirety will not be able to produce data fast enough. At that point, they will probably start producing their own content and asking humans what is valuable and what is not. By 2040, your favorite author may be a machine and the NY best sellers may be a way to determine which AI content is good enough to train the next Gen on.

Nice idea, but does all journalism combined supply enough data (and varied data) to meet the needs for training the models? Also, why pay a special rate when only a few subscriptions would be required and most of the rest is free?

Is it similar to rimworld then?

Thanks, songs of syx looks interesting, what are your thoughts?

Just to clarify, other than the naming, those games aren't related, right?

This is kind of the opposite of that idea though. This is saying that not everything put on the screen needs to be computed from the game engine. Some of the content on the screen can be inferred from a predictive model. What remains to be seen is if that requires less computing power from the GPU.

Can you renovate your current home to get another bedroom and maybe some more common space?

You could probably get a 2nd mortgage for a project like that but if you aren't familiar with them then you should speak to a financial advisor (one that has a fiduciary duty to you). This may allow you to keep your existing mortgage and rate on the first loan and only pay the higher rate on the 2nd.

It belongs in a museum!

Try a "cold" sear from this video: https://youtube.com/watch?v=uJcO1W_TD74

Should allow you to use butter for the process.

Sidebery is a great FF extension that provides vertical tabs, trees, and groups.

The video you linked summarizes the intent and benefit of Veritasium videos at about the 2:25 mark, stating that they are for a general audience. I agree that Veritasium isn't perfect, and doesn't provide complete depth, but they do a good job of creating interest in topics. So they accomplish their goal.

Additionally, the video you linked is wrong about the principles it discusses. The drift and diffusion velocity (group velocity) of electrons and holes is small compared to the speed of light. The relativistic effects discussed are caused by the phase velocity, which will be closer to the speed of light in the medium for even small currents.

Edit: originally, I incorrectly worded the last sentence which implied that the electrons and holes had a phase velocity equal to the speed of light. I hope the statement is more clear now, but I'm happy to provide additional clarification if necessary.
