@Dominic2306 Interview with SAS Hero "Obi Wan Nairobi" where he describes his treatment by USA White House vs. UK Foreign Office.
Trump personally shakes his hand and thanks him. UK hardly acknowledge him, then scold him for unauthorised (unplanned) meeting with USA https://t.co/o4OhVXNHdt

The Transformer is a magnificient neural network architecture because it is a general-purpose differentiable computer. It is simultaneously:
1) expressive (in the forward pass)
2) optimizable (via backpropagation+gradient descent)
3) efficient (high parallelism compute graph)

@levelsio What guide did you follow to set up this env?

You want to install nearly everything possible from conda. Then only at the end pip install stuff.

I always have torch installed through conda not pip. But I'm mostly on windows.

One of my favorite mathematicians is Michael Freedman, versatile enough to win a Fields Medal yet also do physics at Microsoft Station Q (topological QC)

He has come up with a Kantian interpretation for @VitalikButerin, et. al’s work that’s actually quite novel

@AlgodTrading What macro prediction videos did you get the most value from? I enjoyed Collison interviewing Druckenmiller

@dendricide If you have chemistry and want to earn her respect then false flag the restaurant owner launch a coup and install a puppet restaurateur into management who is under your control

@CardinalMason @thesamparr They did this with at least one of the other ads they ripped off too.

[Mike Davies @britzerland]

@rabois fun movie too.

@BowTiedCaiman This ad was a huge story in the UK. The mayor banned it. Their sales exploded. People walked on train tracks just to vandalise it

@SCHIZO_FREQ If you aren't sure whether to like or reply then pick the safe middle ground:

reply "I like this"

@taylorawelch It had the same problem as quora. It starts with some elite interesting community but has to open up to all to grow and the quality drop stops you coming back.

Twitter spaces also is just were interesting niches already are. But people speak worse than their tweets
