Tinkering with semiconductors and copper for ebikes, cargo bikes, and things slightly larger. Also curious about the pre/post-cloud internet (forecast: 🌤️).

Provide critical feedback on prompts, and suggest ways to improve my understanding of topics. Do not provide positive feedback or praise for my questions. Focus on responses that help me understand the problem and how to further investigate answers.
Your investigation plan has a scope problem - you're trying to tackle two fundamentally different levels of analysis simultaneously. Sampling methods operate on the final output logits, while cross-layer analysis requires examining internal model states. This混合 will likely lead to confusion about what you're actually measuring.

The Chinese military and defense industries now have access to hundreds of Ph.D. geodesists. Perhaps the most shocking example of America’s decline relative to China, in this strategically vital science 3, is that the number of Ph.D. geodesists in the entire DOD, including the NGA, is now approaching zero. The same is true of the U.S. defense industry. In the modern world, a major competitive advantage in science quickly translates into a major competitive advantage in technology. This ‘domino effect’ is not some future prospect, it is already underway. For example: • China’s BeiDou system is at least as good as GPS, and arguably it is significantly better. BeiDou now has more world-wide users than GPS. • The geodetic sub-systems that enable China’s satellites and space program seem to have reached parity with our own. • The collapse of geodetic capacity in NGA, the DOD and the defense industry will undermine next- generation GEOINT technologies, such as those based on artificial intelligence (AI) 4. • The near disappearance of American geodesists has led to large numbers of young geospatial engineers who are inadequately trained in the scientific underpinnings of their own discipline 5. In some cases, the science to technology linkage is imminent, but not yet immediate. For instance, NGA’s Earth Gravitational Model EGM2008 was indisputably the world’s best in 2012, but now Europe’s and China’s global gravity models—though highly derivative—are competitive, mostly because they are supported by many physical geodesy specialists, which is no longer the case in the NGA6. Such models provide ‘gravity compensation’ to inertial navigation systems (INS), and the need to improve that technology is quite pressing, given the looming dangers of GPS denial. NGA still retains a major a
The geodetic and geospatial authorities in China, for the last 15 years at least, were in possession of the facts and their implications that proved so elusive for most of their American counterparts. This ‘awareness gap’ has worked very powerfully in China’s favor, bringing us uncomfortably close to the point of no recovery. We suggest that understanding the mechanisms that promoted unawareness, determining which still operate, and what other consequences they might produce, should be a high organizational priority (especially in the DOD), if the U.S. seeks to recover much of the 6 geodetic/geospatial ground it has ceded to other countries. We suggest possible mechanisms in the Appendix and invite additional ideas from you. The fact that China’s large investments in geodesy and adjacent disciplines not only persisted, but have increased over time, suggests that China seeks to pass the U.S. with high forward velocity, while the U.S. continues its slow and backwards drift. This would allow China to take a commanding lead in “one of the most technologically productive of all the sciences” 3, and the downstream technologies, and thereby attain a permanent geospatial ascendancy.

Babara Bellot, a 45-year-old single mother who is Black, skipped November’s election, and hasn’t voted for a presidential candidate since Barack Obama. The $20 an hour she earns as a quality control worker at a company that makes automotive clutches is barely enough. Bellot limits the family’s electricity and car use to keep utility and gasoline costs down. New clothes sometimes come from thrift or bargain stores. When her car starter went out a few months ago, a friend lent a portion of the $381 to fix it and she worked extra hours to pay it back. Bellot relies on Medicaid to provide healthcare for herself, her 10-year-old daughter and 12-year-old son. She tries to stay optimistic and encourage her children, and takes pride in her ability to save money during hard times. “I have to let them know that although our circumstances may not always be where we would like it to be, I still have to put on my uniform. I still have to go to work,” she said. “I still have to bring home the bacon and cut it up as many times as I need to so we can survive. And we hope that things will get better.” Bellot recounted how one recent morning, her son, Mekhi, told her he had been dreaming about Disney World: “Mom, I saw a whole bunch of stuff! I was on the roller coaster ride and I saw everybody down there,” he said excitedly. Bellot told her son to get dressed for school. “Mom, have you been to Disney World?’’ he asked. No, she said. “One day, we’re going to go,” Mekhi assured her. Bellot smiled.
