  I learned negative as being a separate operation where we need to apply the order of operations. I think it was something like : -2 is a diminutive for -1x2 so it uses the order of operations of a multiplication.
  My calculator is the official one used in schools in France (ti-83 premium ce) and it says -2^2 = 4 with the negative key. I don’t think it would make a mistake in such a simple concept.

  But whatever these concepts can change depending on the field, country, level of education. What I mean is : it’s unclear, so use parentheses. So (-2)^2 or -(2^2) are the correct ways to write it.

  Isn’t the “-” order of operations the same as a multiply ? I think I learned powers take priority over the “-” so your calculator would be right.
  But either way if it can cause confusion you should use parentheses.

  The same happened to me at the pool when I was 10. I just thought it was weird back then, now I’m disgusted.

  The author probably is using stable diffusion, a self hosted open source AI, no restrictions. If you have a good enough GPU (8go VRAM recommended, 4go min) check AUTOMATIC1111 stable diffusion on GitHub.
  There are online services or Google collab if you can’t but I never tried any.

  You’re probably not going to believe this but 83% of the us population lives in the city.

  I’m not going to argue on who is worse, sorry, I’m not educated enough to convince someone. But yeah if you pin the middle east genocide to the us (which you should) it’s bad, and I don’t know how it compare to the Uyghur’s genocide.

  Edit: I might also add the U.S. is currently undermining the Taiwanese people’s desire for strategic ambiguity. Putting its own geopolitical interests ahead of the desires and well-being of the Taiwanese people.

  Just about that, isn’t China doing way more shit on that one ? I know most Taiwanese want the status quo but there are mass campain from China to take Taiwan, and I’ve never heard of the opposite.

  China does sometimes engage in Chinese nationalism in a way that is worthy of criticism; but pretending they are worse than the U.S. in this regard is detached from reality.

  Lmao

  This is China, their CEO will misteriously disappear if they try something so obvious.
