Many paragraphs into the article and I still don’t know what important discovery or observation has been made

Yes, but Einstein was able to learn cause and effect by interacting with the physical world as a child. Without being able to interact with an environment, the I believe the ability to learn causality is limited if not impossible

> to determine causality, we typically have to perturb the system Couldn't agree more! For computer models to understand causality, it must be able to interact with the environment and probe it. I think understanding causality is on

As someone from the US, I would have smiled with a smirk after reading your comment, but seeing how my country deals with current crises, now I fear my country is now no better, and I realize how important it is that everyone does their par

I’m more concerned about what happens if we don’t start taxing the rich more (in the US). I’m worried about the class divide turning violent

The author argues that deep-learning has abandoned statistics. I could not disagree more! Too much of the field was concerned with detailed proofs and mathematical formalism that were somewhat disconnected from probability theory. Modern ma

With respect, those pictures you posted fail to capture the scale you elude too. Pictures of structures in my city look equal in magnitude

Maybe if we had evolved to be more like iguanas we wouldn't even have society at all. We would just sit on rocks, seeking to stay warm, never striving for more

While I share your disappointment in the quality of the press release, Nature is by no means the bar for measuring significance. I've been both accepted and rejected by Nature, I've seen colleagues accepted and rejected by Nature,

I cannot understand why people publish bogus results and stretch the truth, which I have personally witnessed (but not by my previous mentors). Academia doesn't pay as well as industry, so why remain in academic research unless you car

Neither does Trump. Perhaps instead of focusing on the presidential races, you can become more involved in local elections, where your voice has more impact. Getting upset over the presidential races is like your team losing the super bowl-

Wow! I am blown away. The game accepts multiple sentences for each response. Most responses are on cue, but sometimes the context provided by the AI is silly. I feel like I could write 1 page sci-fi essay with this

I’ve seen lots of “questionable” research, so much, that I rarely read papers published by other researchers because chances are the data is junk, and I’m in academic biomedical research!!

I love the article! My only advice is to end with a list of maximum entropy distributions to showcase the many applications of this theory. I often refer to such tables when I have varying constraints and want the best choice for representi

I see two issues being conflated here. The first issue is the outrageous prices for generic drugs. The second issue is the true cost of research. Drug prices have been rising out of control even for generic drugs (think epipens). It seems t

No one will follow that law. Passing laws that no one will follow and that are against the common good just undermines the authority of government and the letter of the law

Please stop throwing around the word "science" here. I see no science in this whatsoever. Science is formula for validating information requiring experiments and controls, which this does not have. Science falls within the domain

I don't know if that is true, but why does the weight of the rocket matter? A reusable rocket will be heavier as it has to be built to carry extra fuel for re-entry. I would still want a reusable Space X rocket even if it is heavier

Without Einstein, I think we would have parts of General Relativity figured out, but not grounded in the indistinguishability of acceleration from gravity.
