They should get paid. The press should pay them. The college pays the press. The students pay the college. The press releases information for free.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline_in_insect_populations?... Um I’m pretty sure that’s not the only evidence for insect population declines.

I’m gonna need a more detailed argument than that.

I have the right not to sell poison to someone who I have reason to believe will use it to kill a third party. The idea of simply trusting the patron to be responsible makes sense …

Violating the laws of our country while being in a position of public trust reaches a higher standard than “politicians I don’t like” IMHO.

I don’t see how you can make this claim when the budget balance at universities is extremely tilted towards stem. The budget for the kind of programs you seem to be complaining abo…

Then you’re not paying attention. The US is currently experiencing the largest wave of mass protests in its history. The corporate media is simply ignoring it. Practically every tr…

You made a throwaway account to say this?

Yeah I see now I was mixing techniques in two sections of that document

I haven’t really had this issue. UV’s recommendation is to mount the uv.lock and install those manages package versions to the container’s global pip environment. We haven’t had mu…

“Agents that extract the data” Are we really reinventing data frame readers to have an LLM in the critical path?

Do you measure your results in a repeatable way? In a way where your hypotheses about accuracy are falsifiable? Or do they just “feel” right?

It’s basically impossible to make a career as a scientist these days without constantly promoting yourself and your work unfortunately. It’s very tiring and makes it difficult to f…

What do pilots use them for?

IIRC the rules system for magic the gathering: Arena is generated by a sort of compiler fed the rules. You might not even need a modern coding assistant to build out something reas…

I think you misunderstood my answer. There is established research showing that deepfake detection models transfer learning within architectures.

There are three observations that are helpful to know about here: A: High quality, battle tested architectures are sold via an API and samples are therefore easy to retrieve at sca…

This is definitely a concern, but this is more or less how the cybersecurity space already works. Having dedicated researchers and a good business model helps a lot for keeping det…

LeBron James still knows more about how to play basketball than whoever is in the mech suit opposite him.

Really difficult to argue that “both sides are equally to blame for the bad discourse” when one side had a mob of terrorists storm the capitol (then pardoned all of them) and the o…

This is a chicken-egg problem. Those cities became tier 1 cities over time because of their proactive public transit strategies.

I attended this talk in person and some context is needed. He was invited for the “test of time” talk series. This explains the historical part of the talk. I think his general per…

At the moment I’m working on a system to quickly replicate academic deep learning repos (papers) at scale. At least Amazon has a catalogue of prebuilt containers with cuda/pytorch …

Ugh… docker containers. I also wish there was a simpler way but I don’t think there is.

These samples are terrible when compared to commercially released models like from eleven labs or playht. This is an extension of an interesting architecture but currently those mo…
