Much of your argument rests on refuting the notion that the author feels "entitled" to a high-paying job. In that point, I agree with you. Any engineering undertaking is most produ…

I agree that the data collection process wasn't ethical, and the professor should definitely be reprimanded for that. It's extremely sad that the coauthors weren't aware of this as…

Putting papers and code on arXiv shouldn't be punished. The incentive to do this is to protect your idea from getting scooped, and also to inform your close community on interestin…

I admit that Imagenet isn't the best analogy here. But I'm pretty confident that this data cleaning issue would be caught in peer review. The biggest issue which I still don't unde…

I'm not sure what to make of this post. There is always a degree of uncertainty with the experimental design and it's not surprising that there are a couple of buggy questions. Ima…

I've been struggling with keeping track of research experiments and code at the same time. This seems pretty cool! I like how this method is language agnostic and uses "matured" to…

The original comment, to me, reads more like "subject GRE is a definitive measure of eventual success in academia." I was arguing against the definitive part. Thanks for the clarif…

Respectfully, I call bullshit. You can't quantify success in a PhD with a single variable. There are a billion ways research can go right or wrong -- irrespective of your personal …

> everything which makes programs useful is impure device access and state change, discretely sequenced over time I haven't heard about this before actually. I'd love to hear more …

I find differentiable programming languages really fascinating. Think about this: a differentiable programming language is still a programming language. If the language is designed…

I don't see how nuclear is any more dangerous than any other renewable sources of electricity. The law of conversation of energy dictates that the residual waste energy has to go s…

Awesome work guys! A couple of knee jerk reactions while playing around with this: 1. In my work (also at UT actually: Hook 'em), we've found that the hallucination problem is, in …

It can be really tempting to think about research progression on a "linear" timescale but more often than not it eventually ends up following an "exponential" curve because of tech…

Hmmm. I can't get the model to recognize a damped sinusoidal wave (10, 0, -10, 0, -5, 0, 5, ...). Does the model have the capacity to express such a function? An equation is availa…

There's a great explanation of this on the astronomy stack exchange ( https://astronomy.stackexchange.com/a/48317 ).

Yup! There are a ton of examples of this in robot learning. For instance: https://arxiv.org/abs/1809.10790 by NVIDIA uses photorealistic images and something we call domain randomi…

Great work! I found the results in Fig 16 pretty interesting [0]... From response 1, it seems that the model has very little confidence in its decision but get the correct answer w…
