Wow that was quick :) Meh, I feel like comment points have become somewhat untethered to comment quality (at least assuming threads are roughly sorted by comment score). It’s a good heuristic usually but it’s wrong often enough for it to be

This is the last time I will engage in self promotion for a while but the above comment and some of its replies are a perfect demonstration of my latest guidelines violations project… https://classify.stylometry.net/violatio

That’s very nice. Feel free to integrate if you want :) Just request https://classify.stylometry.net/violations/49458161 or whatever item ID (as long as it was posted later than a few weeks ago) and it will return the

I'm pretty sure you would get into Berkeley with that profile. Also you can just major in math and get a job as a software engineer anyways. I agree that the system has reached the point of absurdity though. ETH Zurich and KU Leuven

Very interesting. Hunter S. Thompson described the same technique for learning to write. I'll try it even if it only gets applied to technical blog posts...

If you put important Anthropic blog posts like the Fable announcement or J-Space through Pangram, you get 100% human written. Considering that the overwhelming majority of the code there is written by AI, I think this is an admission that

reCAPTCHA is a great success story of security through obscurity because probably less than 100 people have reverse engineered it and much less than that have produced a working solver for it that doesn't require a headless browser. S

I wish we lived in a world where price wasn't the only way to filter out annoying passengers... if this experiment works maybe it will prove you can offer amenities more widely if you set high standards. I want an airline where at the

This is an interesting idea... it'd be a fun side project to implement enough of a CSS engine to undo this

This wouldn't have helped here but there is a related field of research called hotel recognition. Many of these videos are filmed in hotels so being able to recognize if it was a Mariott or even better a non chain local hotel can be v

The malleability of the ciphertext matters because it enables certain circuit tagging attacks as the article explains. It means that the exit relay could confirm you are using a guard relay also controlled by them and thus discover your or

Nice article and especially so for including the parsing that most people just outsource. What's great about using an emulator is that you can also do fun things with the syscalls like implementing your own "virtual filesystem&qu

OK, I think the problem was that you are only supposed to input the user ID number. I just limited the form to numbers only and updated the description to make this more clear.

Hi, I just realized that the confusion here was that you are only supposed to input the numeric user ID. I just limited the form to numbers only and updated the description to make this more clear.

I am not familiar with Cinematch, is there a writeup about it? When training I used every input book and did not include ratings as a feature. In the future I want to experiment with treating 1 or 2 star ratings as negative feedback.

Can you access your profile page in incognito (ie is your account public)? Alternatively, if you have more than 5000 books in your shelf, that might break it. I just tried a number of users and I was able to import them all.

I did not add what you requested exactly because I think in many cases authors have written less popular books that people may not be aware of but if you try again you should see less highly repetitive things like 5 of the same series in a

I just introduced something [1] which should give you much less repetitive recommendations if you want to try again. [1] https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~jgc/publication/The_Use_MMR_Diversit...

Do you just adding the similar button that the input books have to the output books?

by costco 10mo ago
What do you think the probability that someone else read 15 books you also read is? It’s very unlikely unless they are all staples of a genre, part of the same series, or just extremely popular in general. 3-5 books is how much I would us

by costco 10mo ago
Yeah, the latter are just because they are popular. If you have 3+ books you tend to get less random popular books included
