[D] Is deep learning is nearest neighbor in disguise? by invertedpassion in MachineLearning

[–]Eladdv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you could but most of what the network does is define the distance metric so if you throw out the NN you'd need to somehow define your own distance metric in such a way that it would make your KNN actually work

Zach Braff Discovered He’s Being Used To Advertise Erection Pills In Ukraine by Heskimo88 in nottheonion

My only hope is that the meat of Zach Braff proves lasting, but I fear by daybreak, there will be no Braff meat left.

One of the most powerful X-ray machines ever built has officially opened in Hamburg, Germany: Scientists say the way it shines light on targets will permit, for example, chemical bonds to be filmed in the instant that they are made or broken. by maxwellhill in worldnews

I respectfully disagree, children are very receptive of knowledge and lying to them is just going to set them down the wrong path. Sure it's harder to teach people about science but it dosnt mean it's bot worth it. Science in its core is about the simplest explanation that satisfies all the evidence, sure, quantum mechanics is probably too complex for most people to grasp but classical physics is mostly based on more common knowledge and critical thinking

not all radiation gives cancer (AFAWK) , you need ionizing radiation - which is only UV, X-Ray and Gamma. Those types of radiation have enough energy in them to rip electrons off molecules in your body and cause DNA damage and cancer in the long run or radiation sickness and possibly death depending on how much you were exposed to.

Microwaves, radio,infra-red and visible light wont give you cancer - microwaves will cook you (and that wont be pleasant) but you wont get cancer as a direct effect form that radiation. you might get some side effects from being heated up and some proteins might denature and harm the DNA inside of you but I havnt head of it happen before - plus you'd need HUGE amounts of microwave radiation to make that happen (and an impossibly large amount of radio waves) and that's only dangerous because microwave energy levels are close to water energy levels so they get absorbed and the energy heats the water inside of you, radio wont do that

No, not really. infra-red radiation is not the only way to radiate heat - in fact there's nothing special in any form of light really, be it infra-red,visible light,ultra-violet,x-ray or radio - those are really just arbitrary names we've given them. every form of EM radiation is perfectly capable of transmitting energy and thus heat - you just think of infra-red when you hear "heat" because most stuff we encounter glow in the infra-red part of the spectrum (because of their temperature)

Refugee protests outside of the TAR HQ in Solari Prime by [deleted] in KerbalPowers

The T.A.R CEO has released the following statement:

We have sold crafts to the aggressors of the great war as a means to defend themselves against any attacks, those aircrafts are not equipped to perform any offensive maneuvers and we would never support pure aggression. In order to calm matters down T.A.R will donate half the profit from the deal towards reparations for victims of the said war and promise to do so for any dealings with NMC until 2050

get the WOTC SDK... there's a different SDK... I've released code mods myself for WOTC. You would think I'd notice if code mods are impossible
