My understanding was that n-shot prompting just referred to the number of examples included in a prompt, not the number of prompts to achieve the desired result.

"Build a 3D platformer game from scratch, in raw WebGL, with no game engine or 3D library" would be a zero-shot prompt.

Given the timing, seems more related to domestic politics.

The Snowden files that implicated US agencies and social media companies?

'Large pull requests are hard to review' is a good reason to keep PRs small, but small PRs also encourage continuous integration/delivery/deployment. Stacked PRs sound like they encourage long-lived feature branches instead.

This thread [1] on Zuckerberg from 7+ years ago doesn't look too different. Top comments saying it's "pretty cringe-y", another posting an image from Reddit and some "Twitter bingo cards". The nature of the situation doesn't really offer much for deep analysis, but the discussion yesterday [2] on the product itself seems fine to me. You might disagree since people are more skeptical rather than being glad Meta is pushing it.

Yes, considering it was ~2 years from freezing withdrawals to the approved bankruptcy plan to repay customers.

FTX was only able to repay customers because the value of BTC increased during that time. But customers were only repaid the value of their portfolio at the time of the collapse.

If I steal your money, invest it, then return the principal amount after 2 years, would you consider it financial harm?

The countries with the highest inflation rates [1] aren't necessarily the same with high rates of poverty [2]. For example Lebanon has the highest inflation rate in the world, but has poverty rates lower than Mexico (which itself has relatively low inflation).

Claiming that Meta distributed pirated works is still a copyright claim, but you're correct that it's seemingly irrelevant to the fair use argument (which the article acknowledges).

>Incredibly difficult to estimate this, in large part because the probabilities are so small.

The UN chief has been stating that the risk of nuclear warfare is at the highest point in decades. Not because of the risk of a 'fuckup', but due to geopolitical tensions. Historically the risk has been highest during periods of geopolitical tension.

>high support of these measures from the public

The public support is for an age limit of social media (which already exists), not necessarily the measures to achieve it which are yet to be determined. There's not 68% support of using measures like digital ID.

and tech companies avoid paying tax in many countries through dirty accounting tricks, such as redirecting their profits to tax havens like Ireland.

>Honestly, we should look to fix the issues that lead to people depending on weed, alcohol, and other drugs instead.

It doesn't have to be exclusive or. People are looking to fix these issues. In the mean time, we don't have to ruin people's lives by convicting them as felons.

In React, 'rendering' means creating the DOM nodes and 'painting' refers to browser rendering [1]. So with server-side rendering the DOM nodes are 'rendered' by the server and the browser 'paints' it.

One of those threads may have been a blog post by Martin Kleppmann [1], who also describes double-entry bookkeeping as a directed graph.

Loss causation is described here [1] as the major factor influencing the sentencing range, so if all investors are made whole then a modest sentencing could be possible. It was also discussed in a recent Matt Levine newsletter.

Slight correction, you have to pay a levy if you earn over ~90k/year and don’t have private hospital cover.
