As I said, the far-right usually do not stop there.

One problem with "we only want the illegal or 'imcompatible' ones to leave the country" is that right-winged people tend to get extremer sooner or later. Other people will make them believe into more and more crude theor

I think (relative) poverty is not an explanation on its own. This is my take: Poverty makes people not vote for some parties. But making so many vote for a party, especially with unconstitutional goals, is the result of a lot of desinfo

The complete title is "Germany’s far-right AfD win historic victory, but fall short of majority in Saxony-Anhalt". How can I change the title? Apart from this, "winning" an election is not the same as actually becoming t

I feel so angry with and ashamed of my own country in a way I cannot even find words for.

Getting linear algebra in a programming language close to math formulas was, for a long time, my reason to use Octave. When I first read about Julia, I was really amazed - especially the type system with its multiple dispatching and not aut

The Misspecified Cramér-Rao Bound is a minimum bound for the estimation performance (mean-squared error) when the assumed model of the estimator is not the real model.

Yeah. Somehow the rate of such and other cool, trippy topics seems to have declined on HN in favor of more and more AI topics.

Really interesting read, thank you! One thing I found especially interesting: They argue that you can express the (complex) exponential function exp(x) as a power series with powers x^k. They do not say it explicitly, but if we assume the p

I basically agree, at least for standard functions like sin, cos, tan, exp etc. It is even possible to see mistakes in equations just by checking that all the units to standard functions cancel out making the arguments dimensionless. On the

The Cramér-Rao Bound (CRB) lets one compute the minimal mean-squared error that any unbiased estimator (algorithm) can achieve. Unfortunately, you need to know the probability density function (PDF) to compute the CRB. This work proposes a

Of you prefer an even more entertaining approach and a very gentle introduction into the topic, I recommend the comic "Logicomix" which tells Russel's journey (though not historically correct all the time for story telling re

Today, far right-wing people in Germany use fraktur on shirts, cars etc. - even though it were the Nazis who abolished it.

One of the most exciting things about LLMs for me is to have someone with which I can discuss about technical/scientific/engineering things. Since usually I do not have a human at hand (or do not want to annoy people around me). E

But how does this gas or new gas get back into the liquid resulting in new pressure?

I am not doubting the theory of the gas getting out of the liquid. I was just referring to the "urge" to crack my fingers. I thought, maybe this instant relaxation (with additional auditive feedback) results in an addiction which

I also crack my fingers in the morning, over the day, and before sleeping. I also feel this "tension". But I am not sure whether it is a real "tension" or something my brain makes up to force me crack my knuckles which g

That is something I observed too: When you build a tool (physical or software) or an API (web or library) it should be easy to use. The easier it is to use the higher the probability that people will use it. So, if people build a kind of ru

I, as an engineer, shall work for a mission and not (so much) for money. But as soon as the mission can possibly be completed without me using the latest shiny AI tool, it is okay for the company to get rid of me.

Yes, it is a good fit when a customer is supposed to use some functionality one has implemented but shall not see the implementation.

In cases where I assume that enough test coverage exists, I simplify code that I am currently working on or which I need to read very often. This way I have already replaced a lot of for-loops by range-based for-loops. It helps me to unders
