Conceptually the same thing though. Claude.md is sourced at the beginning of the session, so will be pretty far back in context, just like user prompts from the beginning of the session.

I think the order of enemy moves is deterministic. So if piece 1 blocks piece 2 from attacking you, piece 2 can attack if 1 moves out of the way.

A couple of decades ago I was taking a class at UNC on survey sampling methods. Topics included designing sampling schemes that were efficient in the statistical and actual cost sense, developing variance estimators based on your sampling s

The last SE had a smaller screen but the actual device was larger than the last mini (13 mini). Both are discontinued now, sadly. The 16e is the smallest phone in the current lineup, which is bigger than both. I really like the 13 mini, I h

Scala (and Java) has a typed Dataset api.[0] pyspark only provides the Dataframe API, which is not typed. [0] https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-programming-guide.h...

Never heard of ibis before but the front page give a pretty good overview of what it is to me at least. Looks like a dataframes api that can be executed on a variety of backend engines, both distributed and local. Somewhat analogous to how

I don't think GP is suggesting the time was wasted. Rather the opposite.

The article references a tweet about an accelerator pedal problem. It doesn't specifically say what the issue is, but I think it's referring to the issue where the decorative plate on the top of the pedal can come off and cause th

What is the precise definition of static typing? Both the article and many comments in this thread refer to static typing or static type hints in Python. But as I've always understood it, static typing means that types are checked and

Multiarmed bandits and contextual bandits are essentially causal inference with a cooler name. You can formulate both with a potential outcomes/couterfactual framework, and contextual bandits typically is presented that way. (Bandits a

Indeed. I just set scrollbars to always show on my Macbook per the author's suggestion and there are 4 scrollbars on their page! Makes me wonder if I'm missing the point of the fairly simple post?

This is always true: you're always making some strong assumptions when trying to make a causal claim. Using a causal framework, DAGs in this case, at least makes those assumptions explicit.

Oops I did not see your response until now. I agree, changing the model changes the estimates, because the parameters you are estimating change. However, given one misspecified model, the parameters of that model are still well defined, tho

by smu3l 8y ago
From the semiparametric perspective, you can still make correct inferences about the estimated parameters even if the model is not correctly specified, as long as you use the so-called robust estimator of the variance.

This is not correct. Logistic regression can be used for classification, true, but it can also be viewed as a way of estimating the conditional mean of an outcome variable that has a Bernoulli, or binomial distribution, depending on the for

Not true, you do not have to control for everything. You have to control for everything that may have an effect on both the treatment and the outcome. That implies you have to assume that everything you don't control for does not affec

The drug itself is very cheap. With an Rx you can purchase an ampule with about 3 doses for < $10.[1] You can administer it with an insulin syringe, which I don't think requires an Rx. Of course administration is a lot more tedious

Yes, this is incorrect. Also the next sentence is wrong: >You’ll often see statistical power conveyed as P90 or 90%. In other words, if there’s a 90% chance A is better than B, there’s a 10% chance B is better than A and you’ll actually

"Some thought the game was harder with AI, others found it easier – but no one found it equally challenging." So maybe it's just random? As in maybe some players randomly got an easier level in their first play than the secon
