I don’t know if this is the full explanation, but the article does touch on how the LPM can be tweaked to match physical tests:

The trick is to incorporate experimental measurements to fine-tune the model. If a physics simulation doesn’t agree exactly with experimental data, it is often difficult to figure out why and tweak the model until they agree. With AI, incorporating a few experimental examples into the training process is a lot more straightforward, and it’s not necessary to understand where exactly the model went wrong.

Suspect or not, you get the same surveillance treatment as suspected domestic terrorists do.

The other side also gets to vote for when the war is over.

As the wars in Ukraine and Iran have shown, its impossible to stop 100% of drone attacks and drone manufacturing.

Cargo ship insurance companies will have a vote too regarding when the Strait of Hormuz is “open”.

“Cultivating strategic depth for Israeli regional hegemony” is what they’ll call the invading and colonizing.

When people talk about “smart thermostats” in this context, they’re saying they want the utility company to be able to set the temperature in your house in exchange for pennies off your electric bill.

By reducing the delta between peak and baseline energy demand, the utility can sell the power generating facilities that only run & earn income on the hottest/coldest days but which are a constant expense even when they’re not running (i.e. most of the time).

The plan is to make poor people uncomfortable on the hottest and coldest days in order to lower everyone else’s electric bills.

FYI - the Factorio devs think we should all listen to what the nazis have to say, and give them platforms to say it.

We should probably stop giving them money and attention.

looks like a power inductor

IDK, I think we’ve seen adequate evidence that a lot of people out there are unswayed by facts and logic, and many of the ones who can be reasoned with are vulnerable to sophistry, sealioning, and other bad faith propaganda/debate techniques.

Even an informed public seems incapable of making good decisions.

AaAaAa

“It was Biden that shit in my pants!”

That’s a funny way of asking people to uninstall Epic’s game launcher & boycott their games.

Yeah. Solid oxygen crystals with naked protons tunneling through it.

The old guard of human operated propaganda farms feel threatened by having their playing field leveled. They’re scared that non-capitalists may now have the means to have their voices heard over the cacophonous noise of the billionaire owned media and government sponsored troll farms.

. . . in their time and place, but the universe is ever changing.

Aww, he shouldn’t be that hard on himself.

KSA has given up on trying to defeat the Houthis, and now wants to buy them with a promise of revenue sharing from the oil fields that were recently captured by UAE-backed STC.

KSA hopes they can reduce the frequency of attacks against their oil infrastructure and economic diversification mega-projects. They’re betting that the cost of the Houthi attacks that will still be launched against them, plus the cost of the bribes aimed at reducing the frequency of those attacks, will still be less expensive than a full ground invasion of Yemen.

Furthermore, KSA is racing against the global trend away from burning oil for energy. They need to diversify their economy while oil is still valuable, and a ground war would halt that progress because investors won’t want to put their eggs into an exploding basket.

So KSA is willing to act against members of their own anti-Houthi alliance in order to prevent a UAE-sponsored break-away state from metastasizing on their border - a break-away state that would control the oil revenue that KSA hoped would buy them a temporary reprieve during this fragile economic moment.

Its been done - link goes to a PDF of the study:

Patients with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) frequently report episodes of interidentity amnesia, that is amnesia for events experienced by other identities. The goal of the present experiment was to test the implicit transfer of trauma-related information between identities in DID. We hypothesized that whereas declarative information may transfer from one identity to another, the emotional connotation of the memory may be dissociated, especially in the case of negative, trauma-related emotional valence. An evaluative conditioning procedure was combined with an affective priming procedure, both performed by different identities. In the evaluative conditioning procedure, previously neutral stimuli come to refer to a negative or positive connotation. The affective priming procedure was used to test the transfer of this acquired valence to an identity reporting interidentity amnesia. Results indicated activation of stimulus valence in the affective priming task, that is transfer of emotional material between identities. r 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The EU accidentally proved that piracy helps video game sales.

Never. I won’t buy a game until I’ve tried it. If no demo is available, I’ll pirate it first, and then buy it later if its good.
