To add to this, pages sometimes have comments or footers or other bells and whistles after the content that I’m interested in and it makes me think the post is longer than it is. This leads me to either leave the post for later or straight

There’s a little more to it. Learning-based systems didn’t prove themselves until the ImageNet moment around 2013. Machine learning wasn’t used in previous AI hype cycles because it wasn’t a learning system but what we now call good old fas

Yeah, scientific papers are a pain to read. Some have a Latex extension which links you to the paper down in the references but it's not bidirectional - you have to scroll back to your previous position.

If it’s not confidential, what type of problem would require manipulation and testing of trees?

It can, but it’s not good. 2D data doesn’t give you enough information to reconstruct it in 3D and then infilling the details with generative models leads to inconsistencies.

Political parties are organizations fighting over political power. If they have local monopoly over power (which is the case in NY) they can do whatever they want without consequences. Multiparty systems should be a solution to this but oft

My dad worked as a shipmaster for a while and did some work on practical port terminal organization. I couldn’t look up his work exactly because our names are highly generic but if you’re interested, I can forward you his work.

You are doing research, it’s just the first stage of it. From a computer vision perspective, the steps are 1) pick up a topic 2) do a literature review 3) establish a baseline and state of the art 4) improve upon model until you beat state

I’m looking for a job right now and the website is more usable in incognito mode. I think the trash they recommend is due to somebody’s bad recommendation algorithm similar to Amazon’s “you want another mattress?” problem.

Behavior outside of the training distribution is undefined and more often than not desirable. NNs work well on stuff they’re trained on.

Absolutely, instead of actually fixing the problem, let’s invent muskisms like creating underground highways by boring tunnels underneath cities or ferrying said cars across long distances with a train. That’s the public infrastructure equi

People will come up with the craziest solutions to problems solvable with 200 year old technology (trains). Why you need these heavy metal boxes instead of taking a train is beyond me. Cars are optimal for trips below 100-ish miles. Anythin

Remember that AI was supposed to be solved by McCarty, Minsky and Shannon in the hot summer of 1956.

What people forget is without a proper, tangible goal, no matter how many core or interesting papers you read, you will still remember nothing. At most you will be able to make armchair ML researcher comments on an online forum.

I agree with you on an ideological level but I don’t think home server hosting is as convenient as making an online account. I really hope the single box solutions get at least close to it.

To answer your question, I don’t think there’s a clear point where Europeans become Americans when they move and I don’t think it overlaps with repressions of natives. I think the people immigrating to the Americas all had many known and un

Mice + keyboards are good for versatility. When you need more than data entry or non-tabular (images, video) data entry or processing, having a mouse is key.
