What really really matters is the Kelly criterion, or expected logarithm of wealth. If you expect returns to be similar to the past, that would be mean(log(1+return) for every year).

I will never buy hardware that requires an online account. At least not expecting it to last. If a company does not leverage the account, maybe they go bankrupt, get acquired, or just shut down their servers supporting old hardware. That sa

The weight gains were 180 vs 280 grams. While that is a significant difference, I still think calorie counting gives a useful estimate, since people eat many foods and the error reduces in aggregate, as some are overestimated and others are

Stews and soups offer endless variation. Veggies, spices, meat, eggs. You can get fats from whole foods like nuts and seeds. For instance, hummus is made with tahini.

I am not worried about fossil fuel running out. That is because, as it becomes more limited in supply, it becomes more expensive. This will force people into reducing its use. Companies producing more efficient or alternatively-powered tech

At what point does human enjoyment become waste of energy? And so what if energy is wasted? Is greenhouse gas the problem? Paradoxically, global warming benefited Europe this winter, reducing the influence of the Russian gas embargo. In any

I greatly prefer this distributed enforcement. I contrast this to Musk's banning of journalists.

There are two ways to measure the "strength" of the dollar. One is comparing it to goods and services (consumer prices). The other is comparing it to other currencies (DXY). I guess these two factors have varying influence on impo

by danuker 4y ago
The dollar is stronger, as in, you need fewer dollars to buy something. So if the volume of goods and services stayed the same, their dollar value would be expressed in a smaller number.

Wow, with such overlap it looks like optimally-played chess has a much smaller state space than what you'd expect given possible moves each turn. I don't think this applies to language or image models. But that would also allow mo

I can recommend NutritionFacts.org. Unless the bots get published in academic journals often enough to steer scientific consensus, that site is worth your time.

Funnily enough, models tend to spit output similar to the most prevalent examples which they've been trained on. So, cheap ubiquity.
