> An individual's susceptibility to a vice is an individual problem.

That ignore the societal influence on an individual. If everyone around you gambles, you are more inclined to take up gambling.


Not ignoring, deterring the state from involving itself in anything except the individual.

Why not both? There's money to be squeezed from both ends.

You know the Red Sea is a different body of water than the Persian Gulf/Strait of Hormuz? Iran does not control the Red Sea directly, but most likely by funding the Houthis.

Bin Laden was from Saudi Arabia.

Do you mean "surveillance" by the word "invigilation" here?

Could be a wordplay due to the fact "invigilation" can be translated to and from the Polish word with a _very_ heavy and long connotations to the USSR state surveillance, oppression and abuse.

Surveillance would be a more "modern" (even if more natural or seemingly correct word), without this sort of the implied baggage.


It's not a wordplay. Poles usually make a mistake because "invigilation" sounds english enough to them and just assume it is an english word.

Modern LLMs showed that overfitting disappears if you add more and more parameters. "Double descent" is well documented, if not well understood.

> Modern LLMs showed that overfitting disappears if you add more and more parameters.

I have not seen that. In fact this is the first time I hear this claim, and frankly it sounds ludicrous. I don‘t know how modern LLMs are dealing with overfitting but I would guess there is simply a content matching algorithm after the inference, and if there is a copyright match the program does something to alter or block the generation. That is, I suspect the overfitting prevention is algorithmic and not part of the model.


Under CCPA, users over 16yo only need to be given an opt-out for data sharing, while users under 16yo have to provide affirmative opt-in.

Which if you think about it, is completely bonkers. Recognising the harm that data tracking causes, but ignoring the harm for the majority of people.

And since there are more non-tech-savvy people than tech-savvy people, the market for smartwatches is booming.

This cannot from Meta, since the paper talks about "non-exploitative research".

Nobody reads disclaimers, and people who get scammed and lose their life savings won't be made whole by being told "you accepted the disclaimer, nothing we can do."
