Ich lebe in Amerika. Ich lerne Deutsche sprechen, aber das kostet Geld. Vielleicht wollen die Migranten Deutsche lernen, haben aber nicht das Geld dafür?
Sorry if the above is poorly worded; I’m still new to the language. My point is that there are lots of reasons that someone might not know a language well, including a lack of money, or a lack of time from needing to work full time to support one’s migrant family on a low wage.
Mexican immigrants to the US are wonderful, but their culture is very different from non-Hispanic US culture. I don’t expect them to learn English. They work like 60 hours per week to support their families. Like the person you’re replying to has said, though, their children learn English and integrate into, but also uniquely contribute to, US culture. Rather than expecting the first-generation immigrants to learn English, I’ve learned Spanish specifically to speak with them. It’s not like there are many more immigrants to Germany than there are immigrants to the US–even discounting the fact that the US has always been a country of immigrants, Hispanic and Latino/a/e Americans (the majority of which are Mexican Americans) are expected to exceed 50% of all Americans within a couple of decades. In some states, they are already the majority.
Diversity is a good thing, and we shouldn’t require immigrants to become like us culturally or linguistically before accepting them.
I was just in a smaller city in Germany and flew back to the US after that. I look German and speak German. When paying with card, Germany felt exactly like the US. At every restaurant, the tip request automatically came up within the thing used to process your card, just like in the US.
I’m thinking of shorting it. My friend is definitely shorting it.
I use Login.gov; “vendors” here probably refer to the NSF, NIH, etc. who, though government agencies themselves, are technically contacted with Login.gov and meet definitions of vendor.
So, my guess is they aren’t selling the data to vendors, just that vendors get the login “username” and authentication.
This is how I see it, and it seems like comments are better received here, too, which encourages me further.
I comment sometimes. Upvote a little more frequently. Just try to be active when I can.
In Texas, if you tell three people you’re married, then you’re legally married.
I wonder how many other states have crazy laws like this.
52% of Catholics voted for Trump in 2020:
This isn’t true, provided that their dataset is large enough. The models are stochastic, and with a large enough number of parameters and a large enough training set, can generate truly unique content. For example, I strongly doubt you’d be able to find anything remotely resembling the following anywhere, ever (look up what the movie is about, and watch it, to understand the absurdity of my request), and yet it was generated by ChatGPT:

If you read interviews from the development of these models, you’ll see the creators saying what can be clear from the above link: With a large enough training set, these models start to learn something about the organization of language itself, and how to generate novel content.
The model architecture that these things are based on tries to replicate how our brains work, and the process by which they learn language isn’t unlike how we learn language.
Agreed wholeheartedly. The Lemmy community has been wonderful. People here actually have good conversations, even if they take a few days to do so, unlike the folks on Reddit. Reddit comments were more meme-y and less substantive.
Crude isn’t RBOB. Converting crude oil (which went negative) into automobile gas (which didn’t) is a process that takes time/work, and not everyone has the infrastructure to do it. Crude also loses the ability to convert to RBOB in time, so if you buy and can’t convert or use it otherwise in time, it’s wasted money. Crude went negative but RBOB didn’t, and auto gas companies were making only their usual profit off of it at the time.
Yeah, accurately simulating a single pyramidal neuron requires an eight-layer deep neural network:
I do but I don’t know what that means either.
It also seemed to me that a growing number of comments in recent years there on product-relates posts (e.g., what’s the best language learning app?) reeked of companies promoting their own products rather (e.g., someone’s post history was selectively related to promoting some app after a period of inactivity). I haven’t seen things like that here at all, which is nice.
By season 8 she’s so convinced she’s essentially Mulder. She has times where she’s more or less convinced until then, but it’s a trajectory towards believing until she does. It just takes her a really long time.
Eight of the monkeys are still alive and being tested on, it looks like.
Nintendo looooves to sue people over so many things though
The online play is garbage. I played in H1 tournaments around the US back when it was good and would love for them to do it better than they did with their remake. The remake actually remade Halo 1 PC, not the Xbox version.
