I think cli’s are more token efficient- the help menu is loaded only when needed, and the output is trivially pipe able to grep or jq to filter out what the model actually wants
So you’re telling me we could do this all for just a few million dollars more than the price of the three fighter jets recently shot down over Kuwait, and provide good American jobs while doing so? Sounds like a deal.
(In reality it would be more expensive because you would have to source, train, and administer those people plus audit the results afterwards. But the government had said it would be doable before to the courts!)
Not what the article is talking about, but I think betting against x86 in terms of the investment of companies (not individuals buying PC parts) has been a pretty good bet!
Being long AAPL and NVDA has crushed AMD and INTC, and that's with AMD's gains which I would argue are mostly due to non-x86 chips. Even Broadcom + Qualcom + ARM has been a better basket to hold for most of the last 5 years.
While PCs still need x86 because of the standardization the article talks about, more appliance-like computers like mobile phones and even server hardware have stolen a lot of market share and I think are the dominant way people will do their computing in the future. This comment was written on a m2 macbook that I use to ssh into a gb200 server.
Any idea what the % is? Absolutes don't really make sense without being compared to the number of correct deportations. Detaining someone, for more information, isn't always unreasonable. For example, I was in a car accident with someone, and was not allowed to leave until the situation was understood. Was I wrongfully detained? Of course not. It was part of the due process.
When you were detained it was in service of understanding an accident. When these Americans are detained it’s because they were racially profiled. The courts may decide that’s due process now but they didn’t believe so years ago and there is quite an ugly history to that practice.
According to that article (it's hard to understand their numbers) it seems around 50 (with the remaining being detained for interference?).
According to this [1], ~68k have been deported. So, around 1 in 10,000 (or 0.07%). Next question would be, is 1 in 10,000 reasonable? You would have to compare to other countries or maybe police operations (like I experienced).
This analysis is predicated on a few things- that the estimates in the article are accurate, that 1 in 10,000 assumes that the process of deporting the 10,000 was the same that detained those Americans and not in addition to those deportations, and finally that those deportations were necessary and would not have happened without racial profiling.
I don’t think I agree with any of those points. Firstly the article is likely a gross underestimate from a few months ago. Since then a lot has happened - Americans have even been killed by ICE. On the second, we deported plenty of people in previous administrations without the racial profiling that lead to several of these Americans being detained. Finally, I don’t believe this level of deportation is making us safer or benefiting us economically

This is false, which should be expected, since not detaining an American would necessarily mean freeing all who couldn't be immediately identified.
Here's a realistic scenario that I would like your answer for:
A car is pulled over for having plates that belong to someone with an expired visa, with a deportation judgement. The car contains 5 people, none have valid forms of id. In your opinion, what's the next step? Do you temporarily detain them to figure out who is who, possibly detaining a citizen? What is the correct next action to make sure less than 1 in 10000 citizens are temporarily detained?
I feel like we would disagree on the role of immigration in the US but I really appreciate you calling out how the current administration’s approach is only effective at making viral clips online. Meta comment, but it’s refreshing to talk with people who have different goals while still referencing a shared reality. Removing the masks and adding cameras shouldn’t be controversial unless your goal really is to make a paramilitary force for the president.
Illegal immigration has been a political issue in the USA for a long time now. Trump is, however cruelly, fulfilling a campaign promise. One of the few he's managed to do.
Not OP but I guess it’s where the threat model includes worrying about the foreign government actors. Like US infrastructure, government contracting or some major tech companies.
