I did the math:

Room temperature is often defined as 20 degrees Celsius (although I remember it being 23C in some old textbooks).

20+16.6 is 36.6 which is the normal temperature of a human body.

20+18.6 is 38.6 which is above normal temperature, i.e. fever.

AFAIK ~42.0 degrees is lethal.

Meanwhile Telegram is one of the most effective and bullshit-free social networks, way more popular among certain audiences than Meta, X, and other garbage.

This might be OK depending on your location and the government system in place. Voting for a single person that has to answer all questions sounds like UK or US to me.

Take a look at the Finnish or the Dutch parliament. 7, 8, 16 parties there? Independent (no-party) politicians too. Each one of them is free to represent people with specific needs and only focus on that.

Also keep in mind that some questions like “healthcare” and “welfare” may be less relevant too. It can be pretty much resolved (you can always promise to “increase doctors’ wages by 30%!”). More specific issues remain.

MIT Technology Review got an exclusive preview of the research

The article was published 3 days after the arxiv release. How is this an “exclusive preview”?

Successfully tricking existing models by a few crafted samples doesn’t seem like a significant achievement. Can someone highlight what exactly is interesting here? Anything that can’t be resolved by routine adjustments to loss/evaluation functions?

They don’t have to cover everything. Pirate Parties often ally with other parties that cover other specific problems, e.g. Piratenpartij & De Groenen (“Pirate Party” and “The Greens” alliance) in Netherlands, and they work well together.

I have played in online and offline CS and Overwatch tournaments. My team won prizes. We had a wonderful anti-cheat measure: reputation and respect.

This software will not solve the problem - and is probably not even meant to. The company is likely harvesting data to abuse users or sell it.

No extent of privacy invasion will solve cheating. I have made - as a fun university project - demo cheats that do not even need to run on the same computer as the game. They give significant competitive advantage, and detection systems give too many false-positives to even begin to counter these.

330km/h is the sound barrier

This is false. Sound barrier is an aerodynamic effect that affects vehicles at speeds close to the speed of sound in air, which is slightly above 1200 km/h (at sea level, normal temperature and humidity).
