Thank you, however I am not asking for your sympathy. I'm challenging your assertion that critics of Trump's supporters and OP are just "brainwashed by the TV", and your framing of this dynamic as just "both sides&q

I am from the Deep South. I have evangelical family members who have disowned others because of their beliefs. Who wish for the Kingdom of God to be realized, so that the non-believers can spend eternity in suffering. I grew up with peers w

I disagree, you don't need a "rock-solid strategy for moderating" "user-supplied content", you just need a user base that is by and large not inciting violence, particularly against government officials. If I run so

I believe this excerpt is actually what led to her firing on such short notice. Actually, I find it surprising that this is going largely unnoticed. Jeff's emails, which were surely also crafted with sign off from PR and legal, attempt

Anecdotally, I have a friend who's coworker was arrested all of the sudden one day, allegedly for using streaming services. Like you said, I'm not sure about the outcome of such arrests, whether result in convictions or not, but I

Thank you for this comment, and for describing this dynamic so clearly. As you said, I doubt it was intentional, but GP's comment stuck out to me because it was in response to a rather innocuous statement of disbelief. I would liken it

I feel like you've misunderstood my point. It was not my intention to conflate those two claims, I assumed when reading your comment that you are referring to some subset of people, not all people. As I mentioned, the type of interacti

Very cool work, I'm happy to see more people thinking about deep networks along these lines. It seems that this is very similar to a recent work put on arxiv back in November, "Learning to Generate Chairs with Convolutional Neura
