There are lots of other unsupervised learning methods in machine learning.

Would it be free speech to write "go kill person x"? I think it isn't? So if the brackets are code for something illegal, why would it be legal to use them? (I'm not saying they should be illegal, as I am not 100% sure w

I think they refer to Carrie, not the wife.

But do give any indications that these are the real causes, or are they also just speculating as so many others do when it comes to explaining those phenomena? Did they study the causes at all? Or did they just note "50% drop out"

Do you have a citation for the "50% of male teachers leave"? I'd be interested in the details. Thanks!

"they argue" They speculate, you mean? Those are all "just so" stories...

How does Instagram surpass Twitter in Search traffic - what can you even search on Instagram? I thought it is mostly pictures. Or are people just searching for porn on Instagram?

In the footnotes it says he made a joke there.

Yeah, as your last paragraph explains, that rule makes the whole thing even more crazy.

Is there anything wrong with that? Surely that is an known risk when deciding to become a minority shareholder? What is next? Maybe I can buy Apple stock because I expect them to launch a self driving car next year, and if they then don&#x2

Realistically no Basic Income could be assumed to be for life. After all, governments and policies can change. So rational actors should always assume it is just for a limited time, and have a contingency plan.

That infographic needs a lot of citations. The reasons they give for the low amount of women in STEM have not really been verified, it's just popular opinion. The story about performance of boys and girls in STEM is also more complicat

They were too proud to simply adopt Android. They were broken before they made deals with Microsoft. Shame - personally I think people would have bought a Nokia Android phone. They were renowned for their hardware.

What would have happened to Nokia phones if MS hadn't taken over? They pretty much dug their own hole.

The basic technology is not that hard to understand. The implications are less obvious.

I think it is OK to do this. When I was in elementary school, we also learned knitting. Why not programming, too? Some basic skill that could be useful at times. However, seeing how abysmal general knowledge of mathematics is (in Western co

Why not? It is very easy, for example: "if (sontexts[1980].contains("love") && songtexts[2014]contains("war"){print "Dylan changed his focus from lovesongs to protesting against war"}

His argument is that Watson supposedly doesn't have an opinion on ISIS. While I don't know if that is even true, it seems like a very weak argument. Even if it could only "think" in a very limited domain, it could still

That's a funny way to claim brains are not like computers then. After all the usual argument is that computers have no internal representation of anything. Why would anybody demand that there has to be an internal mental representation
293.
by facepalm 10y ago
Fascinating how somebody can say nothing at all with so many words and give the impression he has a clue. He doesn't seem to know how computers or brains work. For example in the baseball catching story, there is no reason why a comput

How do they get the data, is it just because that Russian network allows scraping? I had an idea like this before, actually I think it might even work with just descriptions (no photographs needed). Like if you see a stranger on a train - y
