Your first paper references the one I was thinking of: the Turing NN. Thanks. I hope you learned something useful while digging.

I agree. Answers like the above one indicate a level of dystopia/fear that itself is concerning. Friendship on any level is highly dependent on proximity in space and time. We need to be aware of how our righteous minds work and stop t

So it would be weird if he called himself a bitch maybe, but he is a male calling himself creep, so I'm confused.

Thanks for that. Very interesting. On the first one, I assume we are still talking hand-generation\coordination of the procedural bits. I was waving my hands at possibly learning the topology of those bits, possibly even from recognizing

I wonder if there are certain patterns that take a lot of parameters to express in an NN, that could be more efficiently represented using some other kind of logic, and that could be automatically discovered by some variety of algorithm suc

If you train a large parameter NN, and then somehow prune it to a lower parameter NN, will it generally outperform an equally-sized lower parameter NN trained from scratch? I'm not talking about reducing bit-counts per node here, but t

So your theory is that employment rates actually improve most in the businesses where minimum wage goes up the most?

Did the authors of the report make this hypothesis?

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14637873 Looks like it was un-flagged? Don't know enough about the process around here. It was flagged for a long time though.

I have the same question. The WaPo article that described the results of the study (not good for minimum wage progressives) got flagged rapidly. Articles since attempting to counter the story happily remain.

The results the commenter was referring to is the fact that prior studies found good results with minimum wage within the restaurant-worker class, and so did this new study. But the new study found that looking at a larger superset of these

Restaurant workers did fine (under both this NBER study and a prior Berkley one). It was a superset of low-wage employees including those restaurant workers that did poorly overall. This is one of the more interesting results since minimum

A break-even cost-benefit is not a market based outcome.

I'm more concerned personally with the fact that at nearly 40, I think I can actually notice getting dumber. :-/

Claims to that effect are usually misquotes\misinterpretation. Elon says they'll achieve Apple like market caps. He isn't simultaneously saying the opposite.

If someone says 'my labor isn't worth 15$ and I know you won't hire me at that rate so I want to work for 10$' they are legally forbidden from this, right?

Don't assume that's true.

I've had the impression it's pure chaos over at Tesla's autopilot division for quite a long time. They have so much to gain if they get the pieces right, but I'm not sure it's guaranteed to happen.

Yeah, it's always nice to see people overcome this particular handicap.

Astonishingly for a solved problem, Netflix still spends over 800M$ a year on research and development. I tend to scratch my head that they possibly get a good ROI on that. I think HBO's entire content budget is ~2B$ for comparison.

Interesting idea. Yahoo was basically ride-sharing Ali Baba so it's a fit.

So you start with false hyperbole before moving onto vengeful and mean-spirited hopes for my future, all while presumably trying to capture the moral high ground because to you all problems can be solved with high taxes. I don't think

Yeah, we could take the money from a corporation that is creating jobs and value right now, and use it to create incentives for people to never figure out how to be productive citizens because hey, there's no jobs.
