Eh, you use rotations if you're specifically looking for rotation invariance. Also, it's hard to tell how confused the network actually is since it's not really predicting 'probability' of a class (even though the t

Sure, but there's zero data to suggest either of those are a factor at Google. That's just moving the goal post.

This is a surprisingly high percentage. Usually studies have found about 15% reduction when moving from untyped to typed.

That's a very IT/bay area specific view. You can be well respected with a long career in many industries and not make 150k.

You should just own up to it when you're clearly shown to be wrong. It would reflect much better than doubling down.

Considering the Watson Jeopardy was more a PR stunt than an actual demo (no voice recognition, questions given as plain text, speed advantage of a computer) I'll hold my opinion until any technical details come out.

I agree - I've worked for a company where there was zero pressure to deliver and an emphasis on quality. This led to endless discussions about minutiae code details and long debates about best practises. We ended up rewriting some part

But only in the case of 'outsiders'. In the case of 'insiders' the acceptance rate of men drops more than that of women when their gender is known (no p-value provided so hard to tell if statistically significant).

This is definitely not exclusive to stackoverflow. Math.stackexchange has the same problem, and from what I've heard, so do many other sites of the same format.

EU is the largest contributor of foreign aid by far. EU is the only significant entity taking global warming seriously and acting on it. EU takes in far more refugees than USA, China, Japan or Australia... combined. So - that moral high gro
