Is this matrix positive semidefinite (Symmetric matrix, with particular pattern)
$begingroup$
Let's consider a symmetric matrix A.
If for each row, the diagonal entry is equal or larger than the magnitude of any other element, that is
$$a_{ii} geq |a_{ij}| quadtext{for all rows } i text{ and entries } j , ,$$
then the matrix is positive semi-definite

It's false, I've just this counterexample.
$$begin{pmatrix}
1 & 0.9 & 0.9 \
0.9 & 1 & 0.1 \
0.9 & 0.1 & 1
end{pmatrix}$$
is indefinite, since the eigenvalues are $0.9$ and $(21 pm sqrt{649})/20$.
From this answer:
Is this a positive semi- definite matrix

Rounding off to integers looks more beautiful (with only zeros and ones).
