Researchers have adapted techniques from functional neuroimaging to map internal "functional networks" in large language models. By presenting the model with task-based prompts in an on/off pattern, they identified distinct networks preferentially activated for domains like political science, radiology, and paleontology.
They found the greatest overlap between networks for radiology and pathology, suggesting shared semantic representations. The activated connections were fairly consistent across runs with similar tasks, and strongly predicted the prompted task in held-out experiments.
This offers a new way to peel back the black box of large models and understand their hidden organizational logic. It could help explain failures, selectively target parts of a model for fine-tuning, or monitor "alignment" during inference. The techniques parallel those used for decades to map functional networks in the brain.
I cut myself significantly less with a single blade than I ever did with the disposables. Disposables breed laziness for "it's good for one more shave" syndrome. And you tend to get razor burn frequently. With a single blade "wet shave" you tend to take a bit more time and make shaving an art and "manly" routine. Emphasis technique and you actually feel the difference of blades and wearing. I suggest purchasing an amazon tester pack of blades, eventually you will find ones that work. You can get a decent weight Parker shaving kit with a badger hair brush for the amount of a few blade packs, but they last forever.
There are tons of videos online with technique.
Stick with it for a few weeks until your skin adjusts to the awesomeness of the shave. Invest in a good alcohol free aftershave moisturizer.
As an American the phrase "chiefly freedom" sends shivers down my spine. I'm sure you don't mean it as such, but it sounds so narrow minded and "rah rah" patriotic. I wish America was "chiefly education and free thought".
Our country's founders went to war specifically for the ideals of freedom and fair treatment by a government that represented them, rather than merely ruled them. Free thought and speech are certainly central features of that -- but they felt many more things were essential to being Free.
"Freedom" sounds rah-rah patriotic because it is both TRULY patriotic, and also used as weasel-words by those who are wanting to do the things we would consider un-american ("preserve your freedom and safety by groping you at all airports and train stations...", "detain indefinitely foreigners For Your Freedoms", etc).
Consider re-reading America's Declaration of Independence, or reading it for the first time if you never have. It's remarkably easy to understand, and pretty clearly states some of the ideals that the original "Americans" felt were reason enough to go to war with England.
Indeed. All to often people mean freedom for me. Like, for example "I should be free to impose my religion on others if that's what my religion says I should do."
Theoritically, the principle of reciprocity should preclude this kind of thinking. In practice it tends not to.
Chiefly education and free thought have nothing to do with free speech and the other freedoms granted by the Constitution. What you are wishing American meant could be completely fulfilled by a ruthless dictatorship that put an emphasis on education.
I always thought that the digital stock market should take a page from the cryptocurrencies and add a digital proof-of-work that will cap the speed of a transition. A "temporal tax" would keep the system from wild swings and reactions, similar to what we saw a few months back.
What's the point? The first person to get the transaction still makes money, so there is still an incentive to get the information first. Everything will just be on an arbitrary delay. And what's wrong with swings and reactions? That's supposed to happen as new information comes in which changes things. If the people reacting are wrong, they lose money and the people who see it make money.
That's for sure. I wonder how safe these sort of implants are even when just playing around with other rare earth magnets. Having the implant ripped out because you absentmindedly picked up another magnet would really suck.
