One of the columns of sanding parameters is the sound of the sander.

I agree and rather than post a sibling response, I'll add that I think it's necessary today , simply because we don't have AGI, yet . And also point out that we are talking about determining if AI is snake oil or not. There

You're touching on the "difficulty" in verbalizing it. I see what you mean, because you did learn that the heuristic was changing with just a yes or no. I said you can't teach that way, but you clearly learned that way,

> Supervised learning in machine learning is nothing remotely like a human teaching anyone anything. I disagree, I think it's exactly the same. As an example, a human teaching a human how to use an orbital sander to smooth out the r

nah, it's on line 33 of player.js if(this.isShooting){ this.bullet.y -= 0.1 * dt; Changing that 0.1 to 1 would make the bullet move 10x faster. It'd be neat if you could have multiple bullets on the screen at the same

It suggests that's possible, but we know that's possible already. The hard part of plastics recycling which is already being done at various scales is isolating the plastic. How do you get foodstuffs out of plastic containers? H

It's hard to verbalize this, most of it is "intuition" but I think it boils down to "supervised learning is BS." Humans are smarter than computers. How can a human teach a computer how to do something when the human

This is one of those situations where I have to hold two conflicting ideas in my head at the same time and am reminded of the difficulty of doing that. You both make good points. China is doing a lot of bad stuff here, but it is their land

I did edit to elaborate where I thought there was ambiguity. Yes, I agree, if ASCAP, ICE_CS laid claim to the GP's work, then that needs to be fixed. I would suggest any money paid to ASCAP, ICE_CS for that video be returned to the GP,

That's not what I understood when I read it the GP saying: >And yet, they have claimed copyright on my music and monitized it. By "they," I think he meant: ASCAP, ICE_CS, not YouTube. The problem is that ASCAP, ICE_CS has

You and the GP should have both stopped before saying "It's theft." It's not theft, not even close. You gave them the video and they said they do not want the video -- for whatever reason. You don't have a right

I came here to say the same thing as the GP. I don't understand why some words are red or green. For example, you can type in non-brand words as well. I typed in "houses" and the word "homeless" came up in green! Wi

HN is a marketing channel for startups who might want to pitch ycombinator, then market the startups they pick, then find employees for those startups, then repeat. The value isn't in selling ads. I see this whole line of reasoning tha

I always wonder about claims like this where one nation says a ship was within their borders and the other nation says it was in international waters. This USS Pueblo is one incident. Israel attacked a Turkish ship in international waters.

If any browser can be a camera, why do you require me to register to try it out? I'm not ready to give you my personal details. You say below privacy is your primary concern, but you require us to give up our privacy just to try it out

The site is not credible. This is not news, it's propaganda. The article doesn't belong here. It's just provocation designed to make amazon affiliate money. For example, the article says: > For those of you who don’t know

The "free market" is a myth . Do you have a mortgage? Do you drive a car? Do you use the internet? Do you eat food? Do you spend money? Go to national parks? Drink water? You are the recipient of govt subsidies. We are a society

Just such a thing is done in Season 4 of HBO's The Wire. It profiles just such a class where the disruptive students are pulled out. Yes, it's fiction but you can see how it'd work and it's pretty interesting to see the

In toxic environments, the individual is forced to choose to be a target or be a bully. You chose to be a bully to survive. That is expected. If you'd chosen to be a target, you might be dead. Unfortunately, it's very difficult t

The gifted kids are bullied by their very nature, because they are different. They have abilities that create envy in others. That envy prompts bullying to neutralize their abundance. Someone with abundance in a community of scarcity is a t

I've been doubting a mortgage is worthwhile debt for society for a while now. For the individual, it's not worthwhile, it's just pretty much the only way you can get a house anymore -- unless you are very adventurous. Eve
