I think ML people have crashed into the field of experimental analysis of algorithms. Rather than developing these kinds of heuristics, they’d be better served by reading what other fields have been doing for decades. But I do like his last

What is the point of this article? Everyone knows that, it’s what we teach children. I at least expected some examples but it’s just a rant. Excuse me, it looks like there was one example. The intrepid brain who wrote the blog post apparent

I have to agree, and such a waste of Colbert’s talents, who could’ve made it great even with neutral coverage. For me it was still fun to watch… Obviously it would’ve been much better if their live feeds were working.

I think the easy defense here is “do you really think my client would have known the price of those stocks would go up after that pivot?”

This comment seems unnecessarily combative. If you just said “beyond the effects of climate change, I think a major threat is the depletion of fossil fuel stocks which will lead to regional conflicts” pretty much everyone would be on board.

The author isn’t trying to answer a philosophical or scientific question, but instead just commenting on how we often have aesthetic views of consciousness. So just like he feels like the man on the subway is conscious due to his expressed

It’s pretty hard to find a journal with an impact factor below 1 considering how frequently scientists cite their own work. Heck just look at the special edition papers and see how often they cite each other. Edit: but I also don’t want to

Also if you use the do nothing strategy, you end up with an economic cost of 400B+. It’s really bad bang for your buck…

Neat game. A couple critiques: 1) no warm weather bonus in the second year? 2) maybe it would be fun to play with a fixed budget. As things stand it’s a little hard to make the trade off between money and lives

I wouldn’t say this isn’t discussed, I’ve heard a lot of people (including epidemiologists) mention the idea. Early in the pandemic there seemed to be some optimism for a new future where everyone can check for colds/flu/etc from

I’m not going to disagree with the author’s main point, I’m sure doing drills is very important. But I do question their personal example. When I was in high school, I played a lot of go. But then I stopped playing for a few years. When I s

I don’t think it’s really a tech thing, I mean Twitter was a disaster tech wise for years. The fact of the matter is that there are armies of entrepreneurs out there all dreaming of making the next big social network, and failing. Even goog

Ironically usually the complaints go the other way, where people are mad a drug can’t be prescribed because the FDA isn’t convinced of it’s efficacy. But I’m not so sure that decoupling the decision is so easy. Patients get very upset if in

My point was more that since they’re from the same party, these things can get smoothed over. The losing candidate will be far less likely to cry foul. The winner might appoint the loser to their team, etc.

One good thing is that this is just a primary election, so I think any of these hiccups will be smoothed over by the party. But if this was a two party election, I think this could look really bad.
