Tip: You can take Waymo to just outside the economy lot, then hop on the shuttle to the terminals. The shuttles have their own dedicated lane for going around the loop, so this isn't even that much more time. It's my new favorite

Because today is the day that I read the blog post. I agree with you that Apple taking action on the account is not wholly unreasonable. What I found shocking was the inability to contact someone who could resolve the situation. I know this

These numbers are from 1990-2000. Airlines have gotten much safer since then, so I believe they would now be much safer per-journey, too. https://www.airlines.org/dataset/safety-record-of-u-s-air-ca... (The difference

Exactly right that this targets a narrower surface to enable many deep learning models. I wonder how uncommon it is to hit some operation that is not included, though? It seems pretty common from a PyTorch MPS tracking issue: https:&#x2F

It looks like this is still missing many matrix operations like QR, SVD, einsum, etc. Is there a clear route to using these on the GPU in Python on Apple Silicon? Last I checked the PyTorch backend was still missing at least QR...

This is a peer-reviewed paper, but I also have trouble calling it a study. The underlying article makes a philosophical argument but is not a typical research study (which I take to mean the collection of original empirical observations).

Super important to note that this is vaccine effectiveness against infection . It does not address the effectiveness of vaccines to prevent hospitalization or death.

Protection from infection is sort of like cleaning up a spill on your doorstep. Curing an active infection is more like cleaning up after someone deliberately blew dirt throughout your whole house, and hid some extra in nooks and crannies.
