I've heard these as talking points, often in a political context, but the opposite has been true in my experience. The places that have removed tips seem to be much happier on the whole. I think as well something that would be concerni

I'm curious thinking about this. I'm a very strong researcher, mild-moderate software developer, and absolutely gridlock terrified of contracts, formalities, getting locked into commitments, etc. Like, I think I could do it, but I

As someone with a plethora of food sensitivities that still gets hard dinged by hidden corn or wheat gluten contamination hidden under a surreptitious "food starch" label in the ingredients list -- it does matter. Yes, the amounts

That's a good question, and I provided scant few hints towards it in my original post. There are a few layers in which the order of certain things matter -- basically, any chaotic system arising from the choices made in training neural

Thank you! And good feedback, the README could be condensed a bit more to be more clean and readable. Thanks so much for the suggestion, I'll take a look at it! And much appreciated to a huge degree on interest in the script, it's

Someone else linked this in a different tree but I do truly love this blogpost series -- you can see the section "input patch whitening" for more details. https://myrtle.ai/learn/how-to-train-your-resnet-8-bag

Yes, David Page's work is lovely. This initial release is almost a bit for bit remake of the functionality of the original code, but built to be linear and hackable at basically any stage of the pipeline. Page gets a ton of respect for

Thanks for the comment! As far as seeing what the core parts are, I'm really partial to the method where you have a graph network with a really high L2 communication penalty which seems to approach the intrinsic dimension of the proble

I recently released a codebase in beta that modernizes a tiny model that gets really good performance on CIFAR-10 in about 18.1 or so seconds on the right single GPU -- a number of years ago the world record was 10 minutes, down from severa

Quite seriously. I think out of nearly all of the energy options out there (green or not), it's certainly the least "offensive", plus, it's cheap, efficient, and definitely green (other wastage aside), to boot. What'

You seem to be exceptionally confident about an area where that is very rarely legally the case. Secondarily, the TOC don't define necessarily what's legal or not. Do you have a source for your claims here? They mentioned a contra

Er....this feels like every main criticism going back to even the expert systems pre-90's. Could you please provide some support for your argument? This was repeated a lot in the early days of the modern wave (2012-2016) but was pretty

I can simultaneously burst a bubble and provide fuel for more -- the alignment of the intrinsic manifolds of different domains has been an interesting research topic for zero shot research for a few years. I remember seeing at CVPR 2018 the

Fair enough, but Imagenet is sort of a nightmare right now. I get it's a crowd funded and sourced effort, but hopefully at some point some brave soul(s) will step up to archive the data as-is in a very reproducible kind of way. :D :)))

I think it can be very strange that the people who are not broken stand out as weird (and maybe even aloof) in a very broken emotional society. As I've been healing more and growing as a person, my extended and close family, which unfo

I honestly would like to find effective avenues to raise awareness of this. I have a pretty interesting mental health history and story (in my judgement) along these lines that I think could help people. But at the baseline, just advocating

There's a lot, I'd encourage you to pursue a few different definitions. I'd argue that anxiety is a symptom, effectively, and C-PTSD is a condition. C-PTSD actually requires a lot of work to properly diagnose, whereas GAD ten

I think the OC you're replying too is far out of line and replying on emotion (personal opinion, I am too haha), but I do find frustration at CBT being used as a modality for everyone and anyone, where it actively exacerbates symptoms

I'm rather growing to dislike this therapy as it just separates two parts of the brain, effectively, which can provide temporary relief while allowing for the mutual information drift between them to grow, which further can exacerbate

Complex PTSD can be a condition that involves significant to total amnesia of the events causing it, while seeming to appear as constant hypervigilance in the present day. Just a note, even parental emotional neglect (which we tend to devel
