Yes, its called a negative prompt. Idk if txt2video has it, but both llms and stable-diffusion have it so I'd assume its good to go.

Not exactly what you're asking for, but AnimateDiff has introduced creating gifs to SD. Still takes quite a bit of tweaking IME.

Yes. Yi-34b is competitive with Llama2-70b which is often competitive with gpt 3.5. GPT-4 is on its own level atm but the point is that China has already created a good model that effectively beats Meta's current best.

Its not even as open as a single party right now. Its single candidate.

This is an amazing quote that I'm glad I now know. Thanks for sharing!

Ummm, I just looked at that list. If you spread out an investment over those companies... I'm pretty sure you're doing damn well despite obviously having a few under performers. Since 1970, Disney grew 3500% faster than inflation. Walmart grew 2000% faster than inflation. Even with the companies that went to 0, there are some insanely good buys in that list if the year was 1970.

Companies (and people) take on debt to invest in themselves, knowing the growth can (hopefully) pay off the debt and generate more income in the long run. Here's a fun list of companies with debt: https://wolfstreet.com/2019/07/26/the-most-indebted-companie...

In the case of students, the idea is to take some debt now and pay it off with increased earnings. The problem is, those increased earnings aren't guaranteed and students are way worse at determining the return on their debt than companies with dedicated teams.

I don't know anyone who hates apple that much. This way, you still get the reputation and thrill. The only people left are malicious actors, like state sponsored attacks.

I thought we already invested in this and managed to waste a whole bunch of money?

This is what I took away too. Its just so against the "spirit" of why the 2a was put in. Assuming every history teacher I've ever had wasn't lying to me. If that's the case, I've got bigger issues to deal with lol.

Ok, but what about mattress stores? Are you telling me they aren't for money laundering?

I love AirBnB on paper, but in practice, its just too ripe with issues. So many similarities to Uber too. Socialize the costs, privatize the revenue. Use litigation to fight to keep the loopholes open. At least Uber isn't screwing with the housing market, that I know of.

Exactly. My first thought, "OK, so can we whine and bash Airbus now for doing business with Saudi Arabia like we'd been doing to other companies?"
