There is very little to criticize here. You’ve done a good job!

However, it looks like this might have been done very slowly and carefully, so I think you will benefit from practicing writing faster now. You have the shapes, now get the speed!

I’m already from Michigan, so I feel right at home in the cold north :) 🍁

This is real! I’m one of these people and my family is working on assembling the documentation!

They’re union. It helps a lot.

Dude was paid by the word and it shows. On the bright side, the book is excellent- it’s just a bit padded. I feel like it’s one of the few books where I feel like an abridged version might be an improvement.

We’re doing our best to shut down wherever they pop up but they REALLY want our electricity, land, and water.

They’re trying to build several right now near my home in Southeast Michigan. So now you know where.

or just break em :p

Which Lemmy instance? It’s federated and each server is different. It’s like asking “what will be the top post on the forum” or “what’ll be pinned on Discord”.

Hey buddy, they admitted they didn’t know what the star even was.

You can assign each rational number a single unique integer though if you use a simple algorithm. So the 1:1 correspondence holds up (though both are still infinite)

For every integer, there are an infinite number of real numbers until the next integer. So you can’t make a 1:1 correspondence. They’re both infinite, but this shows that the reals are more infinite. (and yeah, as other people mentioned, it’s the 1:1 correspondence, countability, that matters more than the infinite quantity of the Real numbers)

This method is definitely a great way to achieve some degree of explainability for images, but it is based on the assumption that nearby pixels will have correllated meanings. When AI is making connections between far-away features, or worse, in a feature space that cannot be readily visualized like images can, it can be very hard to decouple the nonlinear outputs into singular linear features. While AI explainability has come a long way in the last few years, the decision-making processes of AI are so different from human thought that even when it can “show its work” by showing which neurons contributed to the final result, it doesn’t necessarily make any intuitive sense to us.

For example, an image-identification AI might identify subtle lens blur data to determine the brand of camera that took a photograph, and then use that data to make an educated guess about which country the image was taken in. It’s a valid path of reasoning. But it would take a lot of effort for a human analyst to notice that the AI is using this process to slightly improve its chances of getting the image identification correct, and there are millions of such derived features that combine in unexpected ways, some logical and some irrationally overfitting to the training data.

The dude really wants to buy his way into heaven with a last-minute, utterly unearned Nobel Peace Prize.

The concept is used by Palantir the corporation to refer to the fact that they are placing the world under malevolent surveillance. And they’re clearly proud of that malevolence. Yucky.

I use my great grandfather’s bottle opener. It’s magnetic and sticks to my fridge, and it’s over 100 years old. Works great!

Thank goodness that last pic is edited, the bird didn’t fall did it? (not ironic, I got worried about the bird and want a happy ending here)

I’m deleting Palantir, I think. I want Peter Thiel and his toxic ideology gone, and deleting Palantir’s data and software would meaningfully set back the timeline of unlawful surveillance of the American public by our current administration.

I think most people on Lemmy qualify for Jaded Outcast by default.

Just putting a reasonably-up-to-date real-world value estimate next to any price in parentheses would be a big step forward though.
