If this article is correct about limitations, couldn't one simply include a Turing machine model into the process to train algorithms? Some ideas: - The vectors are Turing tapes, or - Each point in a tape is a DNN, or - The "tape&

Yes, democratic political culture is a culture of popular, low risk decisions, and stagnation. This limits how far these countries can develop. The problem with assuming China will reach the same stagnation, is because that outlook is the s

China has more skill to be able to run a larger system than places that only know how to run smaller systems. So they have socio-political governing ideas that work at scale, and they've produced consistent results. It's probably

Yes, definitely. Pick up the early FRUiTS books by Phaidon for a great, enlivening and colorful overview of 90s street fashion and youth. These images of creativity are what first got me really interested in traveling to JP.

Firstly, tho, the economic success of these three countries is on many fronts a direct result of China's rise, while their own policies have kept them back on some fronts, economic integration with China has helped grow them. Second, t

you want to engage, but I'm not going to right now. thanks anyway. for serious consideration etc. i realize my comment is a little too extreme even for my own view. i criticize the West very strongly here, and while i don't walk b

it's okay. nine_k and i are on "different sides" in view of this. I know nine_k does not want to see it differently. we shall not agree. but for anyone else who comes across this and is still working out how they feel about t

not assuming anything. just looking at the results. from poverty to riches in 70 years, civil harmony and > 1bn people, clearly the proof the party doesn't know what they're doing. the truth is the PRC is ruled by technocratic

Yep, it has a big hole.

I currently consider this broken since, turns out that XOR and permutation do not commute over each other, and anyway to get them do so so requires knowledge of the secrets to be transmitted in a way to the channel that lets attacks recover

This probably has a big hole in it that I missed. But I just feel there must be some way to make a PK cryptosystem using Chinese Remainder Theorem. And I've found it in this one way at least. I'm somewhat concerned this is simply

Sure.....but then I think everyone ought to be able to down vote. Or only the mods. If it's a tool, it's either a tool for all, or a tool only wielded by the ones who define community standards, work to enforce them and act basica

Oh no I didn't mean it in a retaliatory sense specifically, I meant it like everyone having the option to do it, or no one except the few ( the mods? the ones who have objective standards ) having the options. I meant like they can dow

Definitely. And I can't downvote back...so I don't like that asymmetry.

by 19eightyfour 9y ago
Yeah, when you talk and track people's facial expressions in real time, you can see which particular things they disagree with, so you have useful feedback. A down vote is sort of like someone running up behind you and king hitting you

I mainly want to see what people are like who are effective but also don't care about being downvoted.

It's a nice community-supporting sentiment but I think the idea that such a powerful tool as a down vote is only used for noble purposes, rather than to condemn and silence dissent or as an "easy out" substitute instead of a

For background on 3-pass protocols, see [1] This could have some holes, so I'm putting it out there to see if anyone can poke some in it, or seeing if it can stand up. It's flexible enough that it can encompass a family of ways of

Okay, I saw that, but thanks for saying it. What does right to left mean specifically? How would you compute it without a sliding window / or make it fixed time?
