To be clear, Poland has recorded high economic growth, not increasing the quality of education.

is introducing diversity in corporations guided solely by profit and not the general good? who would have thought!

That's wrong. Polish state from 1926 onwards supported Zionists (in the years 1926-1939, Poland was ruled by the authoritarian Sanation movement).

There is nothing wrong with drawing on the values that a text carries without necessarily agreeing with it in its entirety. This quote captures the point of the post above quite we…

We don't need another tax to make another commodity available only to the richest, but a change in culture that above all prioritizes consumption.

First you say owning a car is a cultural norm, then you say it should be changed by legislation. I'm afraid it is really hard to change culture with law.

That's true. I already know every bit of my city, I have visited almost all museums, walked almost every street. If I have the opportunity to do the same elsewhere, I will.

That attitude is the exact reason roads in the U.S. are much less safe. Cars are oversized, heavy and completely lethal for any pedestrians or cyclists. It's just a very dangerous …

It is ironic because SUVs have much worse visibility, especially right in front / back of the car.

But there isn't such a thing as a raw model, is it? In order to receive anything from a language model it has to 'learn' some objective. And this objective has to be imposed from a…

It is true that the problem of storing energy exists in both cases, but as far as I understand with renewables you lose reliability (in comparison to nuclear power).

Electricity demand does fluctuate, but so does supply from renewables. I think it is easier to store excess power than to deal with power shortage in case of bad weather.

Germany is now a net exporter of energy, but is going to become a net importer precisely because of nuclear phase-out. As described in the IEAs report [0]: "The government expects …

"The phasing out of the three large, baseload nuclear power plants will increase Germany's need to import electricity from its neighbors. At the same time, all available scenarios …

GPT surely isn't the end, but rather the start of "intelligent" language models. At this time it's hard to decide whether we can make a model that will be truly super intelligent, …

well, even the dumbest intelligence that is, in fact, just a computer, has a great potential. You cannot scale humans horizontally nor vertically :^)

As I understand from the article, the author argues that designation of national parks and reserves distracts people from the main problem, which is unsustainable everyday life. I …

Even though we see a steady increase in jobs and wages, that doesn't mean that there were periods when in certain communities almost everybody lost their job. There are places / ci…

In my city there is an incineration plant which produces about 94 GWh of electricity a year, covering 11% of city's needs.

Interesting! It's so funny when he says that the computer was too old to maintain so they replaced it with raspberry pi - it's weird such big thing can be controlled by something s…

For me it hasn't degraded (or, possibly, I haven't noticed it). I think it really depends on type of searches you usually do.

Still, I think Russia is capable of arming and training several hundred thousand of its troops in less than half a year. Russia still has a very large potential.

A big, three-volume report prepared by 30 specialists has been published. https://straty-wojenne.pl/
