Would add that this is a very low estimate because it's only treating rhythm as a a steady 16th note increments when many musical genres use "swing" timing and probably ways of interpreting the timing of the notes as well

A computer system is not a decision maker. It does not have agency, it is a tool. This is an IT use of the exonerative tense. i.e. "The suspect died due to bullet caused wounds"

Well, if you start from the position that rural living is a hellhole, I don't know what to tell you buddy. Plenty of people enjoy it just fine, just different costs and benefits

Either this uses the word "information" in a way that is 99% divorced from common usage or the philosophical implications of this are massive. It would essentially mean that truth or falsity is an inherent property of the universe

In France, when you get married or have a kid you get a family book and it is the official record of your family. If you don't put a kid in, they don't have the same rights and vice versa. Really leans into the "family is a s

The entire US physically cannot have one big blackout. There are 3 separate interconnects: East, West, and Texas. There are DC ties which connect them, but even if the tie was left open it's not enough to cascade the blackout. To your

My point is that a blackout won't last 2 weeks unless you've got major structural damage to the electrical system. We had a dang near worst case scenario (of no damage) and it was only 2 days Also, I present Hurricane Maria hitt

In 2003 there was a major blackout that started in Ohio and took out the power grid for most of Ohio east to New York and up into Ontario. Around 55 million people lost power. This is the same as a hypothetical EMP (blackouts without struct

The key point I see in this is that, given the current ecosystem, attacks are systemic. Plus, given the nature of ML training and datasets, it's expensive to bug fix an attack, if it's even possible. This right here is the real

Read this expecting the AI to be just mechanical turk all the way down, but (spoiler), it was pure vaporware. Nice to read a new angle on the problem!

Oops. My brain parsed that last part as an email signature and I didn't read it. I meant to support the claim that the author describes empathy as a negative. I wasn't in a military, but just a "basic training" is far mo

this comment is getting down voted, but I think it's correct. The author later states: > "professionalism means being able to knuckle down and shift your mindset into one focused on working, one aimed at achieving an objective

The scientists used here are poor examples for supporting the authors thesis. Someone like Shakespeare is a far better example to find a Lone Genius because he didn't participate in an accumulative field.
