The US has an entire Western hemisphere it can and should be doing more to unify and improve. Like Trump said in 2016, it's time to turn our resources back home. Rebuild our own infrastructure, social programs, etc.

It's time for the EU to either become a real institution or go away. Building an army and taking responsibility for its own defense is a step towards realism. Merkel is in favor because she's tied her county's future to fossi

Playing the meta is part of the game. If you're not loading in other code or using 3rd party assistance, it's fair. Understanding the buy strategy in CSGO doesn't make you a "cheater", in means you understand how to

This I what made the 1990s era games so full of non-critical bugs AKA "glitches". The ceiling of complexity was raised waaaay over that of the previous generation of tech, but the techniques used by developers didn't advance

The only people who persistence hunt still are the people who didn't find a better approach. Be it that they don't need a better approach (which is fine. Means they're optimized) or that they simply spend.so much time hunting

Yeah, but only because we needed the oil. But now that we're a net exporter, no need to be abroad

Bad analogy. If the fins were actively rounding up homeless and forcing them into shelters, or disposing of them, then you'd have a case.

I didn't mention their schooling. I only care about where they didn't work.

No, the game of thrones variant was the opinions of sheep. Which is foolish because the lion should care about his food. It's also not originally from thrones. It goes back to Aesop. Thanks for playing though.

The cure is to not play the game and go do your own thing.

Ooo I hadn't seen that they'd announced the 700. Been holding off on the 650 waiting for a refresh.

Wanting to be engineer #5549383 at a big company is a fools errand if you want recognition and reknowned. It's like trying to get famous working as the guy who bolts the doors onto the frame at the Belvedere assembly plant. The lion do

It does generate a long-term representation, the issue being that even with context and timestep specific data, that embedding is too general to make a good representation. Sports are particularly problematic because almost all teams and st

Depends. In the articles Uber example, the failure wasn't with detection, it as with context switching. The detection kept changing, and so the model kept going "oh, new object, restart decision process." Lacking the ability

Or predicting the performance of a sports team over time. From what I've seen, It breaks down at the embedding layer, because while the teams "remain the same" in name / dictionary, their actual relative relationship to

The parent comment isn't thinking time-series like you and I are. Being able to follow multiple agents and correctly deduce their relationships at a given time t is very hard. NLP "time-series" does a fine job at making bac

Perhaps, but dealt with via smaller adjustments rather than catastrophic collapse. The underlying principles of the companies is sound, just priced a bit too high. The market fixed it (as it is supposed to do)

That's the thing a lot of devs who hire don't get. You don't necessarily need someone who knows the language inside and out on day one. What you need is someone smart and who can demonstrate that they can learn new languages

Cheap in terms of dollars. But add in the totalitarianism, censorship, 60m+ dead in the last 50 years, and I don't think you'll find the price to be particularly cheap. I'll take my slower but steadier progress.

The US military skips on maintenance all the damn time. They were running bootleg copies of Windows as recently as 2015 because they don't have the resources or incentives to upgrade. Every office of the executive executive branch is i

It doesn't, but being explicit about whether the vacuous "we" is the big G Government or we the private company forming classes would have saved quite a few bits on PGs server.

I like to flex my supposedly useless history degree from time to time. How else would I take shots at Julius II? I don't think the government is particularly good at actively promoting things. Too easy to incorrectly optimize. So to be

Your anecdotes don't mean much to me other than that you can take action on things you care about. Which is good. I simply dislike vacuous "someone, somewhere should do something" statements. Be they from you or anyone else.

Oh? How's PG&Es monopoly working for California? I'm of the opinion that much smaller grids with high volume solar would do a lot better of a job. Sure the monopoly made sense when it was issued, but once tech catches up to th

Not sustainable. "Government money" (money taken from it's citizenry) eventually runs out. Plus granting a firm a government monopoly on a region is always a bad idea that ultimately hinders the development and deployment o

Why does a robot trained to remove appendicitis need to know about the bones of the foot?

by huffmsa 7y ago
Yes I know the reality of the situation. So let's rephrase. Do you trust an AI controlled robot specialized in appendix removal (with a very good track record) but zero knowledge of other systems or procedures?
