Readit NewsI love when the title omits the point in leiu of clickbait.
Loud sounds cause hearing problems? I’m shocked!
Americans spent $12,914 American dollars per capita in 2021 for health care costs. We pay over double per capita what Canadians pay.
Canada could increase the quality of the health care system by buying more services and paying more for services to increase quality.

I’ve had friends travel here just to get treated.
Pretend for a moment that Merrick receives a piece of memo from a subordinate that incriminates you in some form of bank fraud. Of course Merrick personally doesn't know anything about your bank account. Nobody has both the information and a brain big enough to store it. Hell, I have to check my own bank account regularly because I keep forgetting exactly how much is in there and it's my own money!
If something came across Merrick's desk and it convinced _him_ that it was worthwhile to investigate, do you really expect other than delays waiting for signed papers before he got the information he wanted? Do you really think there's a difference to Merrick whether he gets that information in 60 seconds by logging into your bank "as you" and looking at it, or whether he waits a few days and gets hand delivered a piece of paper by a bank's legal team?

Because they can’t control it like they can control Google, Microsoft etc. inserting whatever back doors they want. Video outlines it well.
"LLMs in the GPT family have read every programming language in the world, billions of times. It's been known for some time that these agents can write small snippets of code with some limited success. However, to my knowledge, none of these agents have ever been asked to make their own programming language. This type of task is a bit more complex, and requires a bit more creativity and foresight than much of the internet believes LLMs to have.
Some folks on the internet tend to think lowly of LLMs as merely "Stochastic Parrots" -- simply "remixers" of old ideas. In a way, they're right; but I'd argue that remixing is the fundamental force of creativity. Nothing comes from scratch."
The advent of chatGPT had millions of people on the internet trying to downplay the intelligence of chatGPT by continuously trying to re-emphasize the things it gets wrong.
I think the people who claimed chatGPT was a stochastic parrot are now realizing that they were the ones that were part of a giant parade of parrots regurgitating the same old tired trope of LLMs being nothing but simple word generators. Well you guys were dead wrong, a simple iterative improvement on the same algorithm pretty much ironed out a lot of the issues.
I'm guessing that at GPT-10 or 11 we'll have produced something that when compared with humans, humans will be the things that are far more parrot-like.
People are not reading the articles in full (and therefore being presented with ads, or a subscription paywall), but they are engaging on the social media platform that in turn is making money with ads and other features thanks to the engagement produced by the shared news article.
News companies are being cannibalized by social media companies who get all the engagement (and ad revenue), while people at scale are not signing up for paywalls or even visiting the news site to read the article in full.
I believe this will hopefully make news companies get back to a profitable business, while making conversations on social media platforms a lot healthier.
Recently a host charged me a cleaning fee, left me a negative review about not cleaning. I requested that the cleaning fee be refunded, since it was clearly fraudulent. AirBnB declined to refund the cleaning fee. I will never use them again.
I wonder what can be done to prevent companies like AirBnB, PayPal from becoming so user-hostile over time.
Reliability in this context means that the camera will record and the footage will not be corrupted on the media.
Film sets are very rough on equipment and things break all the time. Sometimes one films in very harsh conditions that anre either very cold or very dusty and hot. Often you don’t have the luxury of being able to repeat a moment or you have travelled to very remote locations so having gear that will continue to work is worth paying a huge premium for.
The Arri sensors and imaging pipeline also offer the best overall image quality. This means it can handle very high dynamic range scenes better than all other cameras. For example the new Alexa35 sensor can record 11f stops of information above middle grey. Most prosumer video cameras can record above and below middle grey around 12 stops total with most of the information in the shadows.
It also means consistent image quality in different shooting environments. Arri has very sophisticated cooling to keep the camera sensor within a specified temperature for consistent noise performance.
Because Arri make more than just cameras it also means that the camera fits into the whole professional eco system and synergises with other pieces of filmmaking equipment like the Arri wireless focus systems, camera remote heads etc etc. Meaning you can focus on the hard bit which is creating amazing stories.
