ESRI claims: "Super Resolution is an image transformation technique with the help of which we can improve the quality of image and recover high resolution image from a given low resolution image." I would argue this is not true -

I don't quite know how to phrase this, but I wonder if others feel the same thing. Seeing Musk's sad life makes me realize that my problems will follow me no matter how much I achieve or acquire. It's a helpful reminder that

I don't believe one accident is too many. I made my statement based on videos I've seen of people having to disengage their beta FSD in circumstances where a human driver would have no trouble. Now, maybe the data says otherwise.

The "self driving" tech that works (e.g. auto braking) is deployed and has saved lives. (Self driving in quotes because it is not really the full promise of self driving.) This Tesla AI does not work well enough in many conditions

Oh, I agree it's all (or at least mostly) emergent behavior. I also believe that a lot of reporters are misleading me, either because they have their own agenda (which often but not always lines up with the overall bias of the organiza

Better headline: half of Americans don't know that (many) news organizations deliberately mislead them.

And of those constituents are employed by the government. Hence the government should consider the interests of its own employees to a certain degree.

Heavy press program was amazing.They actually had to worry about the seismic waves created by the press. About 10x larger than the "gigapress."

Perhaps you mean kiloton! A gigaton is a lot (like, a cubic kilometer of water).

Sure, for companies. But the government is supposed to act in the interest of all citizens, including the citizens it employs.

Regardless of how objective the IFS is, the specific page you linked to is not high quality research. It uses data from a survey commissioned by the Mormon church and does not account for any confounding factors.

The study you linked to about conservative women seems to totally ignore the fact that there are confounding factors. To pick just one, conservatives are about half as likely to make under $30k/year compared to liberals: https:/&#

How do you know that? Aren’t most tariff decisions done behind closed doors?

by elil17 4y ago
Unfortunately most tariff decisions happen behind closed doors. It's an area of the law plagued by special interests.

Perhaps the issue is that whatever you're good at, you'll be shown along side the best of the best. Your friend's joke is funny when you hear it at a party. But is it as funny on Twitter, where it's shown alongside jokes

My main point was that just because there is an AI bubble does not mean that AI is not useful/valuable. Seems like we agree on that.

Then I will pay a higher dollar amount of tariffs for each garment. But why does that mean that I should have to pay a higher tariff rate ?

While I'm not a fan of tariffs overall, if we're going to have them would it not be reasonable to have some modicum of thought put into not having them be horribly unfair towards the average citizen? Why should I have to pay a hig

No, as it clearly says in the article, there is a difference in tariff rate. If you dig down to the actual tariff schedules, you will see that women pay a higher tariff rate for underwear even when it is made of the exact same material cate

In finance a bubble means an economic cycle where asset prices rise faster than their actual value. It is a term of art/analogy but it does not map 1:1 with physical bubbles such as soap bubbles. It does not mean that the underlying as

Bubbles can be based in real value. The dotcom bubble was a bubble because there were a lot of junk, overvalued companies. Doesn't mean websites aren't useful.
