As OP noticed likelihoods often do show up in a comparative context. In that context one is asking which thing or sequence is most likely to occur by chance relative to another, under an (over simplistic, sure) IID assumption. In practice,

Congrats and thank you for this. If you’d asked me when I was a young h4x0r just starting out, what sorts of links I should find on a site called Hacker News, I’d have said something like this one. Looking to get lost in these issues during

The last paragraph may be your best option, if you’ve truly exhausted the possibility of a shared vision that can keep you all engaged. I would drill into why your co-founder is against it, but I imagine it could be that they don’t feel the

Speaking anecdotally from my own experience, having multiple caregivers may just increase the probability that the child can tell that at least one of them actually wants to be there.

Genuinely curious, HN folks - for those who downvoted this comment, can you share why you did so? I don’t personally mind sarcasm as long as it’s not aimed maliciously at an individual, and I read this comment as a sarcastic way of saying “

I don’t think it’s necessary to invoke epistemic probability to explain why the original question is tricky. At least for me, it helps to notice that if the question were rephrased “the older child is a boy, what is the probability that the

Agreed. Money buys choices, simple as. What you do with those choices, and how much meaning they bring to your life, is entirely up to you.

I love outrageous opinions like this, thanks for sharing it. It opens the mind to what’s possible, however much of it shakes out in the end. Progress comes from batting around thoughts like this.

If you replaced QM with general relativity, you would be correct. So, your broader point is valid.

Would love to see this result reproduced. Also a confounding factor might be what they talked about; would be interesting to see a follow-up that tried to break out by subject matter (someone filling time vs. conveying real knowledge vs. re

This is actually a great idea for improving the reliability of answers from a language model. I have also had trouble with GPT3 hallucinating knowledge. One could automate asking the model for a reference and then checking if the reference

I’m just an 1800 rated patzer in blitz/bullet on LiChess, but I would say white’s knight sac demonstrates a certain comfort/familiarity/maturity with the game.

Pretty impressive what the Cerebras folks seem to have accomplished here, reportedly verified by Argonne National Labs. Interested in hardware folks’ take on the architecture as a realistic path forward for training larger and larger models

Too bad the Maginot line is mentioned only in passing in the blog - the Maginot line really is a testament to the failure of central planning and bureaucracy to produce and execute on ideas that stand the tests of time and battle. A drastic

Not sure why you got downvoted for asking a good faith question, but you’re thinking of carbonic acid, which is responsible for the fizz when the pressure lowers as you pop the top and it creates carbon dioxide.
