That would make sense, except that graphs generated from random data show identical bias for overestimation and underestimation, as can be seen in the article. And this is opposed to graphs from the DK paper, which show a smaller underestim

Again, not in my reading. In the random data thought experiment, everybody (experts and unskilled alike) suffer from the burden of not having the skill to estimate their performance. The author is even surprised that the DK effect in the ra

That's the way I understand the statistical analysis, and in my view this exactly supports (not contradicts) DK: > In reality, nobody had any clue how to estimate their own success. Wouldn't that mean unskilled people tend to o

Very interesting article and statistical analysis, but I really don't see how it concludes that the DK effect is wrong based on the analysis. The fact that the DK effect emerges with _completely random data_ is not surprising at all -

Seconding the exercise and social interactions. Also, for me: going outside, preferably near nature; learning a topic I've been wanting to learn; and finding some other, easier problem to play with.

That's really cool! I really liked the method for drawing and averaging predictions. One point though: > What’s the point of this? It’s just that machine learning isn’t magic. For simple problems, it doesn’t fundamentally give you a

Thanks a lot for the suggestions! I added hints to the Yin-Yang one. Regarding the spiral, I get what you say, but I've found that more convenient parameters yield spirals that I like much less. I broke down the hints so that it's

That's a great idea, I might compile a list of solutions. In the meantime if you're really curious, the solution is available client-side (the whole site is static) in the "goal_program" variable, so you can run it throu

Hey! There isn't a sandbox, this is indeed just a javascript eval. It's essentially the same as running code on the devtools console, except with an editor UI and wrapped in way that saves the hassle of messing with the DOM.

I was perplexed as well. It seems to be Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice" written at the very top of the library punch cards.
