This genuinely annoys the living hell out of me: https://www.reuters.com/legal/amazon-dup.. #amazon are being #sued *rightfully* by the #ftc for #darkpatterns in their #ui to rob their #customers of #millions . All other Coutnries including the #uk must do the same, it's insane. We all deserve better.
I would love to spend some time in these super large #neuralnetworks http://lukemetz.com/difficulty-of-extrap.. Apparently they can be costing #millions of #dollars to #train !
The situation in #myanmar is looking quite dire: https://asiatimes.com/2021/07/everyone-i.. Just #covid deaths alone could reach #millions as people struggle to get even basic medical supplies. The article itself goes from a #myanmar update to an anti #us #propaganda piece, so I'm not so sure how seriously it should be taken. But hearing from first hand accounts, the situation over there is pretty bad.
