Socialist is a very weird term to use here. The eu is the epitome of neoliberalism, even more so than the us

As someone who worked on transformer-based diffusion models before (not for language though), i can say one thing: they're hard. Denoising diffusion models benefited a lot from the…

In between the beds?? Does that mean the shower was right in the middle of the room ? So that it would be impossible to place a double bed ? This is the weirdest part to me

You are slightly wrong. Python does allow you to put anything in annotations. ( pep 3107 that defines type annotations says that explicitly [1]). But it also defines a type checkin…

Python has static typechecking which, while not perfect, works pretty well as long as you're not actually trying to circumvent it (or manipulating things "too dynamically")

They are looking at the continuous embeddings, not at the discrete words inferred from them

It is files that are meant to be read by software, not humans. From my point of view this seems like a prime candidate for a hidden directory?
