Actually the quadratic formula is a great example of exactly what I mean. I was taught it as a way to solve for roots of a second degree polynomial when "completing the square" didn't work. The terms in the quadratic formula

I recognize the purpose of learning fundamentals but I think we do a great disservice to students learning mathematics by not emphasizing the power of computers and calculators in modern arithmetic. Many people with math anxiety see mathema

There certain youtuber voices that I really appreciate. Markiplier, Game Theory, Internet Historian, I did a thing, SmallAnt, and Summoning Salt are my favorite content creators recently. I noticed I like long form content essays a lot and

Youtube videos with closed captions on are a nice way to ease into it. There's chrome extensions to increase the speed over the '2x' playback option youtube gives you. I personally don't enjoy podcasts at above 1.3x to 1

More feature rich UIs already exist as thin wrappers for this tech. Some linked from the Real-ESRGAN github repo. More importantly, Google Colab notebooks exist already as well, so you don't even need a graphics card. People are allowe

This UI wrapper doesn't have any way to set options for upsample or tile size parameters. I also don't see any way for it to set the model yourself. https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN The Real-ESRGAN page

The audio fingerprinting is used by services like shazam to identify music, not a per user re-encode of every single song in order to find out leaks. The watermarked music files I have come across only go as far as identifying the distribut

Reaching that level of expertise requires hours and hours of practice. I will just recommend you read https://www.wired.com/2010/11/the-cognitive-cost-of-expertis... [1]. The actual cognitive load of imagining var

I agree with you, it doesn't account for the the imbalance entirely. I said it's the root of it, as in this creates the stereotypes from such a young age. I think it's a fair assessment based on the stories I hear from my fri

There are no studies showing there's different kinds of "intelligence". That kind of categorization falls into the same trap the learning styles myth does. From my understanding the two major branches of intelligence are crys

I don't know how fair it is to say facebook is playing a major role when most of the content consumed on facebook is no longer what your immediate friends post from their personal lives. At one point in time, I would agree that the cul

I think that might come to more fundamental differences such as your personal strength or weakness with working memory. You might be better adapted to conceptualizing words while reading rather than translating what you hear into ideas. But

I would argue that it's the subject that should have an associated optimal way of being taught. For the same reason you don't teach a sport by reading the rule book on day 1, you don't build a strong foundation in math withou

There's a simpler but less comfortable explanation, students even more than teachers try to find meaning for why they can't understand things as easily as their peers. Learning styles is an easy explanation that is just unscientif

I really enjoy video game scores. Nintendo is solid. Console games in general are really nice and generally instrumental. I like citypop too, since I can't understand japanese, it feels familiar without getting distracting. Sometimes I

This seem to fit with a related idea I have been thinking a lot about. What the relationship between having potential when you're young means in terms of how much success you will reach when you're older. And where does passion fi

With additional context, I think that's fair to ask but I want to believe there's still things you can meaningfully do to make these interactions feel more intuitive. I would argue that allistic people do see from the other side b

Allistic communication patterns aren't homogenous. And I think the phrasing is very clinical. It is effective but the tone is not very welcoming. I think it's a fair critique of the writing. I would have written something like, &q

I read this as writing from someone who has a hard time seeing from other people's perspective. I believe part of the responsibility falls on the author. While they acknowledge that they aren't great at communication, their conclu

I believe it is unintentionally egocentric to assume a single individual's perspective is enough to guarantee correctness. I imagine most of the time that individual makes the best call, but that's not less egocentric. It's e
