I think his argument assumes the existence of pseudorandom generators which map a small amount of "true" random bits to a large amount of bits that look random to any polytime observer. The "derandomization" is that we j

Mainstream corporate media is at least an order of magnitude more toxic than anything on the internet.

My intuition would be that both text and fingers are high frequency parts of the image and most image patches across most images don't have that amount of frequency. Text and fingers are relatively rare in images compared to e.g. cloud

Theres all sorts of statistics about the increasing amount of men that are virgins into their 20s and beyond, declining marriage rates, declining birth rates, "inceldom" etc. etc. Its certainly plausible that at least for some sub

How is "stereotype" different from "statistical reality"? How does Google get to decide that its training dataset -"the entire internet" - does not fit the statistical distribution over phenotypic features that

I think in the modern era a very good piece of advice, particularly for those of us without gorilla-like stamina to comb through a math text, is to go on your favorite video website and watch through multiple videos on the topic.

> I think one missing step is to fuse training and inference regime into one, just as in animals It's not clear it is one. Sleep is training (replay from hippocampus). Wake is inference.

People who avoid the sun are less likely to care about health overall and therefore less likely to take vitD supplements?

I think 8 months is a little short for the utility of a new tech to be fully realized and utilized. I'm pretty sure there were still horses on the roads long after 8 months after the Model T first went on sale.

The ai censorship is of the modern "social justice" form, which does not find roots in "waspy Protestants".

I've somewhat had this phenomenon, with the added observation that if I listen to the recording multiple times it will "click" and will sound good again. Then I wonder if it actually sounds good or what.

Recurrent neural nets is the general term for nets with memory as you describe. Indeed LSTMs, a type of recurrent net, used to be state of the art on language tasks until the GPT transformer models. I'm sure somebody somewhere is worki

Reading this made me realize that the internet needs to be decentralized as soon as possible.

It's a gray area because "hate speech" isn't a valid concept. 1A already excepts for inciting violence but that's not what radicalized censorship-extremists mean when they use the term. They specifically mean anythi

Does anybody have a definition of "hate speech" other than "points of view that I disagree with"? And if your definition is going to be something like "encouraging harm against groups of people" can you then po

Free speech improves the human condition. Therefore, by your own argument, the authorities have the moral obligation to forcibly censor your own anti-free speech comments.

Inasmuch as different parts of society disagree on how to "improve" it, one part does not have the right to censor the other.

Burning a book is physical violence. Banning a sub is physical violence. In censorship you are forcibly destroying a communication between two nonviolent third parties.

Whoever is in power determines what is "ethical society" or what makes society "better". Censorship is a form of physically violent oppression and is never justifiable.

Yeah I thought the recursion+memo wasn't actually "dp" until I looked it up. Recursion without the memo is not DP however since you hit exp running time/memory and the whole point of DP is to avoid this.

In "Algorithms" [Dasgupta, Papamdimitriou, Vazirani] they state that the memoization (e.g. querying a hash table) can have significant overhead leading to a large constant factor in the big O analysis. On the other hand, the botto

Recursion with memoization can still take exponential time whereas a DP solution is usually going to be quadratic or better.
