DALL-E 2 spits as many outputs as you want. Then you choose the one you prefer.

> That's enough that someone at Google will acknowledge what you're reporting is a bug on their end, and that they can reproduce it. But it's not enough to get the bug fixed.

I will try to remember that the next time I deal with an open-source project, either as a user raising an issue, or as a project contributor helping solve such issues.

Often, we do not realize how lucky we are that contributors to open-source projects help fix the bugs which we report.

Respectively, a third of his life for the first one, and half of his life for the second one. And that is a lower bound.

The first one had an account on a cybercrime forum 8 years ago, so he was 14!

> These last two nicknames correspond to accounts on several top cybercrime forums way back in 2013.

The second one had an account 13 years ago, so he was 15. Wow!

> [T]hat forum’s database says a user by the name “Damnating” registered with the forum in 2008.

If the interviewee has never worked with a database which would fit in the memory of the machine, and if the company only deals with such databases, then it is clear that it was not a good fit. Failing the interview does not mean that the interviewee is bad, just that they don't know how to count that low, and thus were not the person for the job.

Then the interviewee starts wondering out loud whether he could load it in full on a machine with 8 GB of RAM.

They have made the news for squatting one place in particular: the restaurant "Le Petit Cambodge", as it is one of the restaurants targetted by terrorists on November 13, 2015.

Here is an article in French about them: https://www.lefigaro.fr/societes/a-paris-un-local-du-restaur...

However, it is true that the maintenance cost increases as the power plants get older.

The decision was written in the law in 2015 [1,2], with a statement that renewable electricity (wind, water) should reach 40% of the production, which implies that nuclear power should not account for 70% in the future.

Overall, I believe this is not a bad idea because i) renewable electricity is bound to get better thanks to worldwide research, and ii) it is smart not to put all your eggs in the same basket.

There is no good argument for making it a *requirement*. If the platform has issues moderating its content, then there are solutions other than requiring their users to identify themselves. Plus, as we saw, asking for ID does not help fight against problematic content and its spread. The root of the problem may lie elsewhere, e.g. in the system which boosts user-generated content which draws clicks (clickbait) and likes (outrage and fake news). Asking for ID is only good for the targetted advertisement business, telling otherwise is a decoy.

That being said, I can see how the poster would define himself as an introvert (avoiding social gatherings with a crowd), and be more comfortable alone or with 1-to-1 discussions (actually 3 people, since there is her friend as well). The adjective "complete" in "complete introvert" might be exaggeration though. :)

One obstacle which I forgot to mention is that an account cannot report posts or warn other members unless the account is 3 months old *and* the account has created at least 300 posts. Both conditions have to be met. I guess it is a sufficient hindrance for most Internet trolls to forget about the forum if they had no intention to take part in the community in the first place.

> Postmodernists like to respond [...] that both claims can be true because both are true relative to some perspective or other, and there can be no question of truth outside of perspectives.

It also depends on the threat model. If the community is the target of an harassment campaign coordinated by external actors, then you might need additional tools, or people dedicated to the job. However, this won't necessarily solve the problem, as external actors could double-down, and moderators can lose their minds (suspicion of a troll behind every post, abuse of power, absence of control of the moderators, possible presence of a spy/agitator among the moderation team, etc.). I won't name the forum and the community, but I have a specific one in mind. It does not help that it is a source of information for gaming media, which means that it is often linked to in press articles, which attracts much attention from all kinds of people.

That being said, I get back to the subject: user-generated content on platforms (and not just forums). If the goal is to reach a large scale, then I fully agree with you.

That is basically a "divide and conquer" approach for simultaneously learning a complex task *and* allowing humans to evaluate it.

> To test scalable alignment techniques, we trained a model to summarize entire books. [...] This work is part of our ongoing research into aligning advanced AI systems, which is key to our mission. As we train our models to do increasingly complex tasks, making informed evaluations of the models’ outputs will become increasingly difficult for humans. [...] Our progress on book summarization is the first large-scale empirical work on scaling alignment techniques.

No. People don't remember over a sufficiently long period of time.

For instance, you mention China, Russia and the British Empire, but if you look further in time, you get to see other things which nobody remembers:

> The Islamization of Xinjiang started around 1000 AD by eliminating Buddhism. [1].

> Many Buddhists fear that their countries will lose their culture and become Muslim, as had been the case in many parts of modern day Central Asia, Xinjiang, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, which were majority Buddhist before the arrival of Islam in the 7th-11th centuries. [...] When the Muslim Turkic Qarakhanids captured the Buddhist city of Khotan in Xinjiang in 1006 CE, one of their poets penned this verse: “We came down on them like a flood/We went out among their cities/We tore down the idol-temples/We shat on the Buddha’s head.” In the Islamic world, a destroyer of idols came to be known as a but-shikan (بت شکن), a destroyer of but, a corruption of the word Buddha. [2]

Long before the Islamization of Buddhist Uyghur, there were "Caucasoid" people, which would be impossible to know without the discovery of the Tarim "Celtic" mummies (~2000 years BC) [3].

> From the evidence available, we have found that during the first 1,000 years after the Loulan Beauty [~4000 years ago], the only settlers in the Tarim Basin were Caucasoid. East Asian peoples only began showing up in the eastern portions of the Tarim Basin about 3,000 years ago, Mair said, while the Uighur peoples arrived after the collapse of the Orkon Uighur Kingdom, largely based in modern day Mongolia, around the year 842.

You can find a similar statement as "Proposition 3.2.2" in Chapter 3 "Modular Arithmetic" [1] of this introductory course [2] to Number Theory. Here is a picture of the statement [3].

Basically, if there exists a number n such that there is no solution modulo n, then you know there are no solutions. Here is a simple application [4] of the proposition with n = 2 and 3.
