Integration was this (idk if lemmy renders latex):

int_0^1{x^{-1} (1-x)^{n-1}} dx

[ \int_0^1 {x^{-1} (1-x)^{n-1}}dx ]

Text: finite integration from 0 to 1 of function x to power negative one, (1-x) to the power (n-1).

The limit at 0 goes to infinity that's why there is no solution. But deepseek kept trying different method reaching a conclusion that it can't be solved then then trying different approach.

About the closed form, the function without closed form was that function multiplied by x^y (1-x)^y .

int_0^1{x^{y-1} (1-x)^{n-y-1}} dx

The first one is a case where y=0. Unless y=0 or n, you have integration, just not a closed form. You can plot the function to see it as well. You'd have to try different values of y and n for it to actually plot something though.

its just a focal point distraction from the real shit they bury

Is there anything more American than taking a moment to think and realizing, "Damn, fixation on Tienanmen Square seems like its designed to derail any kind of serious conversation about our respective countries" and then falling directly into the "Because the nefarious Chinese have tricked us!" mental trap.

“During the cold war, the anticommunist ideological framework could transform any data about existing communist societies into hostile evidence. If the Soviets refused to negotiate a point, they were intransigent and belligerent; if they appeared willing to make concessions, this was but a skillful ploy to put us off our guard. By opposing arms limitations, they would have demonstrated their aggressive intent; but when in fact they supported most armament treaties, it was because they were mendacious and manipulative. If the churches in the USSR were empty, this demonstrated that religion was suppressed; but if the churches were full, this meant the people were rejecting the regime's atheistic ideology. If the workers went on strike (as happened on infrequent occasions), this was evidence of their alienation from the collectivist system; if they didn't go on strike, this was because they were intimidated and lacked freedom. A scarcity of consumer goods demonstrated the failure of the economic system; an improvement in consumer supplies meant only that the leaders were attempting to placate a restive population and so maintain a firmer hold over them. If communists in the United States played an important role struggling for the rights of workers, the poor, African-Americans, women, and others, this was only their guileful way of gathering support among disfranchised groups and gaining power for themselves. How one gained power by fighting for the rights of powerless groups was never explained. What we are dealing with is a nonfalsifiable orthodoxy, so assiduously marketed by the ruling interests that it affected people across the entire political spectrum.”

Can't believe this .ml garbage is being upvoted.

Models are absolutely aligned, there's an entire thing called alignment! People even have jobs that they do every day keeping the models aligned and clearly Chinese government is aligning Deepseek because you can simply test it.

It's such an idiotic claim as even if there was no alginment going on what stopping from taking out material from the training set? You somehow imply that smartest people on earth can't remove some wikipedia articles from the training data?
