   Also I'm pretty sure there is no consultancy process.

   Generating those low level feature is actually a much easier problem. Here is an example I found using a google image search for "upscaling": https://copyrightimage.com/2018/05/09/better-image-upscal

   Why?

   Right. It's the same in the US, but if you make over $35,568 your position can be exempt from this. OP is asking if being exempt is a scam.

   Can you explain why name vs variable would matter? I could totally see this for other seemingly small changes, but name vs variable doesn't change the meaning at all.

   I guess an ambiguity in the English language is at fault here. I meant it literally doesn't work for them, and not the idiom.

   I wonder what GPT3 would have to say about this.

   Yes, I did. The last comment is a traceback and an explanation what would have to be done to fix it.

   It seems like Zero-3 doesn't work for them: https://github.com/EleutherAI/gpt-neox/issues/171

    It seems like they are more concentrated in West-Germany. There are apparently none in Berlin, for example. https://staples.de/filial-finder.html

    Was this a very long time ago? Staples is a well known chain of office supply stores in Germany as well.

    Another one is that you can run machine learning on it. For example to automatically detect unusual activity.

    But it says that universities are the exception. It's more of a counterexample.

    I wouldn't donate to universities in general. The have growing endowments which they don't spend. It also adds the income inequality in the US, you are essentially donating to the education of rich people. Note that PG talks about

    To be fair, a lot of stocks have doubled in the last year and softbank as a company does more than investing.

    I think how hard those things are depends on the timespan. Our current massive meat consumption is a relatively recent phenomenon, which is only made possible by factory farming.

    I think that json is mostly a lightweight, human-readable data exchange format for machines to communicate. It's generally not meant to be written by humans.

    I work at Google in California. Unless you have completely different trainings, I don't think your characterization is accurate. For one it doesn't say at all that you should not get drunk together. In fact there are many company

    I think the same deal applied to all projects at X at the time. The other projects were just not all successful.

    You can have payouts proportional to success even in big companies. Google famously payed $120M to Anthony Levandowski. This is because there was an agreement in place to pay projects in X based on the value that they create.

    I have not been following this closely, but if I understand correctly google would have to leave australia altogther if they didn't strike deals. It sounds like facebook had the option of just removing news.

    Yes, it has been shown [1] that these models can memorize information even if it only appears once in the training data. It could potentially cause issues with privacy and especially copyright. However, in this case it's not relevant b

    Those were some interesting failure cases, but the conclusion is unwarranted. These mistakes are not because of any shortcoming of Inception models (except maybe the upside-down car example). They are because the examples are out of domain

    I am concerned by the number of new features that are being added to the Python language. Python is a beginner friendly language, but every new feature makes it a bit harder to learn. To be honest, I kind of enjoyed that the last decade whe

    That's still unintuitive or at least strange because uppercase generally indicates constants.

    Mental fog, for me, is a physical symptom of stress and exhaustion. It has nothing to do with having a clean workspace. The first sentence of the article is "mess creates stress". I don't see a contradiction. It could be th
