people bring this kind of thing up in every thread as if it's a useful comment for either the reader or the poster (presumably project author). it's almost as common as "this page sucks on mobile". who cares? we all know

i don't understand the point? if i have multiple billions of dollars and my kids want to do something who is going to ask them where they went to school? in fact why are they even going to school? it's like this thought i had abou

lol you're welcome to take him in then https://stallman.org/seeking-housing.html

lol talk about out of touch. doesn't mention paying either. it's astounds me that people can be so dense that even after clear contradictions (don't be so obnoxious that you lose your job) they persist.

i haven't read this book but in undergrad I skimmed his linear algebra and it was great. it's still the clearest introduction to wedge and exterior products I've ever seen.

the safe analogy fails because again: no one except apple has the keys to the "safe" that they own

by mlevental 7y ago
how is this like a safe? you possess the keys to a safe you own. you do not possess the keys to iphones with a12 chips in the sense that this exploit delivers.

how exactly would you do that? how would you know when the fuzzy search has failed?

ya because the upper middle class and the wealthy are such a heterogeneous bunch with respect to what they're intolerant of (or really along any dimension)

I don't mean literally memorizing. "memorization" is tongue in cheek for overfit. I'm saying that the net won't actually generalize to classes it hasn't seen examples from (while reduction/transformation a

equation 1 (in formal definition). the basis is e^(-st). if you don't know how that's a basis you need to read a little bit about functional analysis but just look at the integral as a continuous sum and f(t) as the basis coeffici

there is such a vector space it's too bad it has an uncountable basis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laplace_transform

by mlevental 7y ago
I mean cool but I don't see this as doing anything more than just memorizing answers? at least a cas performs transformations. also the time limit metric is artificially necessary for being able to perform the comparison in a statistic

how do you know someone uses Julia? don't worry they'll tell you.

they have a logical structure (claim, lemma, lemma, proof, etc.). they do not have a shape in the sense that the person i responded to intends.

by mlevental 7y ago
i'm sorry but what is the shape or form of a proof? a function maybe - and calligraphy is certainly an art but what's wholly different from what the function encodes.

I'm sorry does it? that's not what the paper says at all "Those released from private prisons who reoffended committed less serious subsequent offenses than did their public prison counterparts. The two groups were similar in

elegant: "the quality of being pleasingly ingenious and simple; neatness." definitely less subjective than beautiful. and it's not arbitrary - i've alluded to an argument that can be made. i'm not going to spell it
