And also the Haredim Jewish sects are seeing strong growth.
Both the Amish and the Haredim reject a lot of modernity and are quite conservative as well look to keep traditional families and gender roles. Probably not a coincidence that there are the groups still seeing strong growth.
Is there any computer-based clustering/analysis you did of the individuals? Sometimes this can reveal a typology of the underlying root causes. Maybe you could see which cluster of symptoms predict others, thus suggesting root causes....
> I think ADHD and it's subtypes is probably a description of something like 8 different actual neurological causes, which all show up as 'ADHD'.
This is the case with I believe probably the majority of psychological illnesses that have not yet been nailed to a clear biological cause.
Schizophrenia definitely has a bunch of sub-types. As does anxiety. As does whatever is sociopathy/psychopathy. ADHD included.
Over time, individual types of each of these mental illnesses will be carved out from the general type and tied to specific biological causes, thus making the vague categories even smaller.
Empires all do end and when they do they often fracture because of a built up of social discontent, but they are predicted to be ending 1000x more often than they end. Eventually someone calls it correctly though, and generally you only know who in hindsight.
The core problem is that for someone knowledgeable in the field, everything becomes straightforward, but the further away you are from the field, the more novel it becomes -- this is true across the board. Even the great accomplishments where people win Nobel prizes, often it can be argued that it was going to happen anyhow because it was the next step in scientific progress given the context.
Thus defining "non-obviousness" is super hard to do -- because it is all context dependent and humans are like a million monkeys inventing everything that can possibly be invented in aggregate.
Intel's strategy is often to hire the best talent of their competitors. Case in point Jim Kelly from AMD who did a stint at Intel after the success of Zen.
This guy was not the head of the M1 processor initiative from my readings, but he was involved in it.
Would it actually have more resources that say Apple? I think if Apple can not do it, I am unsure if anyone else could. All supposedly secure smart phones are not, but they are at least obscure.
I think that one should probably buy an Apple (at least they control everything rather than the cobbled together android clones) and disable basically everything except exactly what is needed. At least that reduces the surface area. And keep personal stuff on a separate phone.
But do they have access to the phone numbers that their customers are targeting? That seems by itself to contradict their statement ("nor has any access to any kind of data of its customers") right there.
NSO is used to keep those with money and access to NSO in power undermine their legitimate rivals. It can be used to plant evidence on their devices as well as monitor everything they do.
Anyone notice that this statement from NSO in the article doesn't make sense:
"NSO does not operate its technology, does not collect, nor possesses, nor has any access to any kind of data of its customers."
If this is true, how do we have a singular list of all phone numbers penetrated? If there was this type of "segmentation" or firewall between NSO and its clients, why was there this huge central data leak?
NSO is tracking what its clients are doing. It may not be telling its clients it is also tracking them. I wouldn't be surprised if NSO could also access every one of those penetrated devices as well independently of its clients.
I was trying to say one could map the std deviation and mean feature size between the two. Currently that isn't done. Thus the 2D scale appears to differ between the two as well as the min/max delta.
Has someone come up with a mapping from Perlin to Simplex? It looks to me like Perlin is slightly low resolution and less amplitude scale. Thus it should be possible to write an equation that mostly maps one to the other -- thus simplifying replacing Perlin with Simplex and vice versa while keeping the distribution relatively the same.
With statistics I bet one could derive this mapping equation pretty quickly. Then it would be interesting to compare the resulting residuals or statistical differences at that point. Because it would be comparing the actually differences rather than these more surface differences.
You are basically saying do not get upset about this because maybe it is manipulation. But if it turns out it isn't manipulation, you have successfully tamped down outrage over something that was actually deserving it?
The issue is in Egypt and other Arab nations they never meet any Jewish people at all. They just see the stereotypes, etc. When you never meet people you can view them as complete evil because you buy the propaganda.
This is a fact of life for Israelis and surrounding Arab countries. I am unsure why we pretend that these negative sentiments about each other do not exist -- they are incredibly widespread in these populations.
This makes sense. It is a competitor to Amazon's Windows Desktop environments. Microsoft should beat AWS's offering here because well, they make the OS that they are virtualizing.
I can see this working for a lot of places where you want good information security. You can never get the data out of the cloud except via screenshot.
