Well, it's exactly less clever because once you've written an optimizer to find optimizers, you've cut yourself out of the loop and you're just a manager of things you don't understand.
Go use my public tool https://doxyjs.com https://doxyjs.com and find yourself a compression algo; you probably can. If you understand why it works, that's interesting.
- wizzard0 4y agoEnd-to-end (or deeper-than-usual) understanding is the reason why I never worried about losing a job. At the same time… trying to grok-everything consistently kills my attempts at anything business-like, where one has no choice but to focus and delegate.
- rsfern 4y agoThere’s some interesting discussion about how to potentially improve the design of the search space. Plus they had to manually simplify the final optimization algorithm, so it’s not like they’ve cut themselves completely out of the loop, it’s just a higher order tool
- michaelmior 4y ago> you're just a manager of things you don't understand. It seems like a pretty big leap to assume the authors don't understand their own algorithm.
