I left SF before the election, I could tell early on that Trump was going to win and figured free speech clampdowns in SV would follow and I knew my work was going to be affected. I worked in search and I remember the…
Ah, I consider them human with human faults and incentives. One really sad aspect is that a major killer of helicopter pilots is cutting corners on preventative maintenance in order to save money. I feel like we need to…
I'm curios on the 10+ downvotes this received since posting; would someone care to give me a reason. Thx
Drones have harder parts and I would expect hardness to play a big role in damage done. But it doesn't even need to be hard, raindrops can also do a fair amount of expensive damage.
Helicopters are slow, and they probably didn't have the rotor speed needed to yank the collective. Hitting a 2kg drone would result in expensive repairs, e.g. $30K for replacement rotor blades and you still might crash.…
No apology needed, it was a subtle joke. It looks we both got flagged for it.
I'm not really letting it slide, I was extending the premise by pretending to be a sympathetic genocidal nazi, which I hope is still absurd enough to be presumed sarcasm. I'm aware that the joke may not age well so I…
I'm willing to let her insitements for genocide slide, it happens to the best of us, but what really worries me is her plan to "improve Cargo by incorporating best practices from npm".
It's common to back channel that information, I have a hard time believing that there was any chance his name would not have come out. He was also doxed in the regular sense by left wing trolls (which do exist). In one…
James Damore didn't leak his memo to the public, he was very much doxed first. It sounds like some people can't take what they dish out.
If you mean Samuel Brannan, then you make money by diverting church funds to pay violent gangs to establish and maintain a shovel monopoly. Then you lose it all to a real estate crash and a divorce. So the real lesson…
The whole shtick is about lowering expectations.
Even if James Damore does not win Google has a number of practices that could be considered embarrassing if they were to be made public. I know a number of Googlers who confide to me privately about their experiences.…
I was talking about backtesting of the models to see if they would have predicted the past correctly. I.e. You run the model from 1970 to today and measure how close the model prediction is with the actual measurements.…
Yes; but it seems your answer to my question is that I must also have several decades of experience.
The group leaders were pushed things too far for me to accept as legitimate but not far enough to produce the results needed. We were aware of others that pushed things even further and they got to continue working.…
I make no claim that climate change isn't happening. Being between the modeler and the results meant it was my job to explain the result to the modeler. So criticizing climate change models within the scientific…
I think you're being too harsh on my former colleagues, they were not evil or even particularly bad people. Hyperparameter tuning is necessary and future pollution is often accidental. The problem is when the tuning is…
~2006-2007, and it was a continuous stream of models. I was between the modellers and the cluster so I would rewrite the models to work on cluster.
Like a #metoo movement for scientists. AFAIK Hyper-parameter tuning is fairly normal and necessary given how easy it is for the models to become unstable on their own and future polluting is often accidental. It can…
I used to do research on climate change, specifically on combining land, sea, and air models together and getting them to run on a massive cluster. It was very important to the other researches that the models produce…
Sounds like risk management. I presume he wants to stay married but also wants to protect his business ventures by getting her to agree to a maximum payout. I've known many wealthy men who were completely financially…
As far as I can tell this is a side effect of optimizing the algorithm to encourage greater usage by discouraging limited usage. Asking FB, Twitter etc. to do any different is the same as asking them to make less money.
It should be mentioned that they gave up the nukes in exchange for perpetual guarantees of sovereignty and territorial integrity.
I do deep learning for a day job, this card is for me. Going on the specs it'll be worth it upgrading my 1080 TIs but I'll wait for a proper review before committing $12K.
