> You set the bar, not him, by inviting the comparison. Would you like to explain to me how Ismailov became Chinese all of a sudden?

by Natsu 4y ago
"At least we're not China" has to be the lowest possible bar you could have picked. And it doesn't make a lot of sense as a point of comparison when the other candidate mentioned in the article isn't even Chinese.

> Should Ismailov win, he would serve as a conduit for the government of Russia’s internet policy goals, which historically have included censoring dissent. Good thing that has never happened in the USA.

There have been more than a few people who want to make an extension that lets people leave their own comments on sites. I seem to recall them hitting a lot of issues with that, because people don't want others to comment on 'the

They see that power as very, very narrow. For one, they have to renew exceptions every 3 years, for another, they've shied away from doing anything at all to some of the broader categories that have been proposed.

I think you're right about this that disbanding them goes too far, but we could certainly use significant reform. In particular, they often use 18 USC 1001 to manufacture crimes and the only evidence supporting a charge may be a writte

That would be rather easy for most people, but especially those who don't like lobster. Or shrimp. Or crab. Or fish. Or literally any kind of aquatic food whatsoever, whether salt or freshwater.

Most of those will make you sick without special preparation, so pointing at variation in taste across cultures that have (sometimes by necessity) found ways to safely eat those things isn't contradicting the idea that our sense of dis

Honestly, the whole thing makes me wonder if we can use this to generate CAPTCHAs. I don't think a human would have trouble picking out which image was the lightbulb surrounding leaves, but apparently AI still does.

As an aside, the Latin words you wanted are a priori , but you're right that race is a protected category and putting out a statement saying "we made firing decisions based on a protected category" is a bad idea for that rea

Why does the noise being Gaussian matter? Would it even work with other types of noise like Perlin or white noise?

Different frequencies? Does that mean it's doing something like an FFT?

How does denoising work, exactly and why does it seem necessary to get good results?

Could it be made to do that?

The weird part to me is that this makes me imagine a high-dimensional space where we can have some vector that lets you go from some starting position, like a picture of a muffin, and then take that in a "dog-like" direction. And

For curiosity, it helps if they're doing something they actually want to do. Being forced to do things tends to kill this off. When kids are into something because they think it's cool and fun and it sparks their imagination, th

I don't think artists will be out of demand any more than fast food has made people stop eating out. I do think it will cannibalize the lower end of art such that it becomes like working at a fast food joint, though.

Have you seen the 'in-painting' technique yet? You can write prompts for each element of an image you want, erase the parts you don't like, position them on the canvas, and make SD fill in the blanks.

I know the models treat time as a real number that we can do funky things with (see also Banach-Tarski), but I really wonder if time isn't quantized like so much else in QM.

You don't want it too high, though. If your body's lithium levels get too high, you get new problems. But this is why anyone taking it has to have their lithium levels checked from time to time.

I spent way too long wondering why someone would need a special database to store info about the subfamily of Cicindelinae instead of just reading that this is some kind of special accounting database.

I found the Expanse great from the start. I don't think I'll be watching this series at all based on what I've read in the comments here. I've already read the books and I just don't think they'll be able to
