That's a fair call out. My comment about systemic issues was to address the fact that it's somewhat unfair to compare apples and oranges. So when I said the economy was doing well under Biden, I meant in regards to the current systems in place in the US.

That being said, the economy is generally measured in how productive the country is. If the economy is doing good, then generally we have lots of people producing lots of things. That doesn't mean we're producing the right things though, as that comes down more to policy and public sentiment/behavior.

Under Biden wages were growing faster than inflation, inflation was coming down, unemployment wasnt growing, stockmarket/business were doing well. Meaning things were doing okay and had the potential to do even better.

Also, a lot of the points you made aren't directly tied to the economy and are systemic to the country. No matter how good the economy is doing, privatized Healthcare is going to cause issues.

I think it's a "dog whistle"

Coming out of the pandemic the US had one of the best looking economies. If he had done nothing he could have taken all the credit. Instead he decided to shoot himself and the country in the foot.

This is talking about American citizens killed by Israelis in Palestinian territory called the West Bank (Gaza is the other half). So isn't about the war with Iran.

Wasn't there a report the other day implying that the sauds wanted the US to attack too?

It feels more likely that two regional powers see an opportunity to remove another regional power.

This design reminds me of all the evtol cars that have been coming out. I wonder if it'll be a similar situation, interesting concepts/designs that just never really stick the landing.

Actually the senate voted to not vote on the matter, meaning technically they haven't had to "go on record". I'm all for the house to force the senate to actually vote on this, although that's just hopeful wishing.

Yeah, we're well past the initial attack. I'm not sure why anyone would think the ship would be safe to return to an Iranian port. It seems kinda silly to think the US would wait until the ship was rearmed before engaging.

Is there something I'm missing?

Yeah, I don't think the creator was very rigorous in their research. I feel like the Halo rings have to have more impact than the death star.

I mean, that's kinda like saying a random number generator can be deterministic. It can be, but that's not how it's used.

Sure LLMs can be deterministic, but they aren't in practice cause it makes the results worse. If you prompt any production LLM with the same inputs, you aren't guaranteed the same outputs.

You're being down voted because LLMs aren't deterministic, it's basically the biggest issue in productizing them. LLMs have a setting called "temperature" that is used to randomize the next token selection process meaning LLMs are inherently not deterministic.

If you se the temperature to 0, then it will produce consistent results, but the "quality" of output drops significantly.
