Singular Value Decomposition is widely used in machine learning, image processing, natural language processing, recommender algorithms…
Stable Video Diffusion is a good marketing name, but SVD is quite confusing from an academic point of view.

It’s not the best idea to call it SVD, as it already stands for Singular Value Decomposition.
This news must be read in the French political context, where far-right ideas are corrupting the minds and islamophobia is the legal face of racism.
It’s also a way for the government to divide the left, accusing it to promote islamist terrorism (which is obviously a fake).
This is a loophole that the Minister of the Interior has been discovering and exploiting for months: he does something whose legality is highly questionable (like banning a demonstration), and by the time his decision is legally challenged and overturned, he’s got what he wanted and there are no legal consequences for him.
You’re right, the situation has deteriorated over the last 30 years.
But what I don’t agree with is the idea that it’s impossible to establish lasting peace in the region.
Otherwise, we have to accept that their only conceivable future is permanent conflict until genocide arrives. That’s morally unacceptable to me; we can’t settle for horror.
That’s not true.
In the 90’s, the Oslo Accords was a step forward between Israel (Yitzhak Rabin, and his opponent Shimon Peres) and Palestine Liberation Organization (Yasser Arafat) to find a way to live peacefully together.
They shared the Nobel Peace Prize for that. And it cost Yitzhak Rabin his life, as he was murdered by a far-right terrorist who wanted to stop the peace process.
Because the rich and powerful meat lobby wants to make life hell for their meat free competitors. The only logic here is money.
Not only that. It’s also a means of long-term tax evasion, by storing works of art in a freeport.
Xubuntu. Ubuntu because most of the time, I just want a plug and play experience with a huge community. And XFCE because it’s lightweight and has all the tiling features I like.
I really enjoyed tinkering Arch, I learned a lot of stuff, but it’s too much effort for my usual laziness.
I totally get that. For most people, watch history and relevant recommendations are indeed useful tools.
But if, for some reasons, you want to switch off these tools, the price to pay was a home page full of flashy clickbait miniatures. This terrible home page could have been an incentive to switch history on.
Now, it’s just a minimalistic google-ish search page. It’s an unexpected improvement when they could have done much worse, like a home page autoplaying ad videos, for example.
I don’t understand. Is this supposed to be an incentive to turn on watch history?
I’ve never heard of this. How is it linked to transhumanism? Is it a re-branding? A fork? An attempted to propose a moral stance to transhumanism? Unless they are two rival theories to think the future?
(I’m not a transhumanist)
Thank you for the article. Opaque struct is an interesting subject for people who want to go deeper into their understanding of C.
If I could add/emphasis two points to the article:
FILE is a famous example of struct using this trick. So, even if yon don’t often need to develop an opaque struct in C, you certainly use such struct daily without knowing.
you can’t declare a variable with an opaque type (because the compiler would need to know its size). Everything must be handled through pointers, and the library has to provide functions to allocate/destroy the struct, like fopen() and fclose() for FILE.
According to the French Constitution, the President cannot serve more than 2 consecutive terms. Macron was elected in 2017 and relected in 2022 (against the far-right candidate) so he can’t be candidate in 2027.
Before 2027, there won’t be any meaningful national election in France (European congress in 2024 and municipal elections in 2026).
Also, Macron hasn’t the absolute majority at the French national assembly, but there are tools in the Constitution which allow the government to pass laws without a vote. And the opposition is not strong enough to dismiss the government.
Not everyone is on twitter, but lots (all?) of Content Management Systems and blogs have a RSS feed.
As an academic, I’m syndicated to several labs and research groups which have their own websites, but don’t care about being visible on Twitter.
Yeah, you’re right, it doesn’t make sense to say that O(f(n)) is good or bad for any algorithm. It must be compared to the complexity of other algorithms which solve the same problem in the same conditions.
