I think you're either missing or proving an implicit point. I'll try to explain my reasoning: - there are lots of ILI - COVID-19 is a more severe ILI - more severe ILI requires more hospital resources - COVID-19 is an infectious d

Some weird things I noticed: There are at least two typos in the abstract: #1 > [...] Danmark, Sweden, Germany [...] Should be "Denmark" # 2 > [...] crypto analisis [...] Should be "analysis" There's a "c

I think the parent meant "warm" as in "hot spot".

I take prescribed amphetamine [0] twice every day. The taste of the name is not in the name, it's from whatever else you had in your mouth at the same time. [0]: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisdexamfetamine

If it was a sun clock it wouldn't have to be coordinated, it would just be.

Strictly, GMT is not the same as UTC. Ironically, GMT is often used as a synonym for UTC by English speakers (the English bias being the irony).

The UTC offset would be zero if you used UTC since it's UTC.

I'm assuming you forgot to mention the light on the robot in the dark. In order to get the progression of the run, you could have an RGB LED sweeping through a color scale during the run.

Do you mean 4 cores or 4 threads? 4 threads is closer to 1 thread than 16.

Well, nuclear power isn't harder because you put it in a car, but it's a great way to add to the complexity of the system as a whole. Putting a nuclear reactor in space (as we still do, I think the most recent Mars rover had one)

How nonlinear are we talking? My understanding is probably closer to the truth than to the opposite of the truth. I'm looking for an estimate of how far from the truth I am. How would a system reliably discredit missing labels while st

by jwandborg 7y ago
It's hard to reach 0% bad labels because: 1. You can't have an infinite amount of good labels 2. Humans are in charge of labeling too. The question is if you can reliably overcome the number of bad labels in your training set, so

I'm 33% insane myself. I believe that's part of what makes me human.

> Yes it's called statistics and probability theory. My understanding of statistics is: - I can halve the % insanity by adding another 100% of good labels. - If I want to reduce the insanity of labels to 1/33th of ~33% I need t

by jwandborg 7y ago
That's correct. I know what goes in and what comes out, not what happens in the middle. How does ~33% insanity in become < ~33% insanity out? Edit: Parent was edited, was previously (paraphrased) > I'm guessing you have no t

Is there any statistical/mathematical tool to completely eradicate or greatly diminish the effects of bad labeling? Is there any reason - other than the combination of pure circumstance and gut feeling of the Data Scientist in charge o

I think the point is rather that it's an unpredictable-stakes game. That is, if you make few enough mistakes, you'll be fine for a long time until you make the wrong mistake at the wrong time and it kills somebody. Maybe a better

Another anecdata from a Swedish native: "Actually" is sometimes used purely for effect (affect?) without any reflection on the meaning of it, similar to how "ducking" is used. I'm imagining "git" wasn&#x27

There's a slight possibility that you could construct an SVG that would load another resource, but it shouldn't (as in RFC 2119 "MUST NOT") be possible.

I'm 99% sure threads will run on all cores. I think the author has confused multithreading with hyperthreading.

Trusting software you install to be secure is ridiculous and completely irresponsible, especially if you did not pay for someone else to take the blame. The only thing you can do to secure your software is to restrict its communication chan

"Defense in depth" sounds, to me, like a phrase to justify multiple layers of imperfect security. A single layer of cloth might not hold water, adding more layers of cloth may hold water for longer, but it's probably more cos

The vast majority of servers run on server CPUs, not on desktop CPUs. AMDs server CPUs are called EPYC, Intel's are called Xeon.

I'm experiencing a lot of jitter on your page using Chrome 76 on Android. - At 60bpm it's clearly noticeable. - At 120bpm every 12-15th tick is noticeably delayed. - At 300bpm it's playing two ticks at very close to the same

That's nodejs code. I'm not sure you can compare console.log in nodejs to playing sound in a browser.

Keep in mind that the testing methodology may have already accounted for your concerns. I would guesstimate that mechanical vinyl and tape players have rate variations on the order of milliseconds.

I made useful stuff in high level languages for years before I dug deeper to discover that it was sometimes useful to worry about the characteristics of my sequences of things.

The speed of electricity in copper is lower than the speed of light in a vacuum. The speed of light in fiber optics seems to be even lower.
