As is the case with most other countries/territories in the Western Hemisphere, America did a lot of meddling. Many corrupt governors were either instated or propped up (many of which went against their own people). Tried not to find a super sensationalist summary and I think dude below does a pretty good job of laying out the facts. Really interesting stuff and gives a lot of context onto why Hurricane Maria was such a disaster (beyond the whole blowing everything away part).

100% agreed with this. The only people panicking are the ones who aren't in the tech industry. Even laid off workers will find another gig, it probably just won't be for a FAANG company.
Also, there is still an error in the underlying data (aside from it just being misleading).

Reply to comment by vprokopev in [D] Why are we stuck with Python for something that require so much speed and parallelism (neural networks)? by vprokopev
- I mean at that point why not start using C for most efficient processes? I think you’re thinking that for loops are kind of this “base” truth when it’s yet another tool that happened to come first in the history of programming. Vectorized operations are a godsend and have allowed programmers to graduate beyond for loops. I don’t have to write out my little optimized c++ function every time I want to run an apply statement or whatever. Specific to ML, I don’t have to manually format my data structure to hook it up to pytorch; I just gotta have a pandas data frame with some minor tweaks to stick it into a neural network.

Fun stuff! I think having the green entry begin at the 8 minute mark might make this graph make a little more sense. Other than that, I will make sure I throw in my milk asap to get that nice hot goodness.

Does anyone have a good resource/video on the overview of these implementations? I don’t work much with language models but figure it might be good to understand where this is but I’m just running into the buzz feed-esque surface level nonsense on YouTube.
