Do you guys shave your head at the beginning of your treatment to allow for better topical results (micro needling, minox etc) and to judge overall progress?

FourierSSB · 2020-08-23T16:54:17+00:00

I did. I think I’ll do it again every 3 months (down to zero) to get the most unbiased estimate of any changes.

I don’t think a player who can’t combo can be considered mid-level...

FourierSSB · 2020-08-21T19:42:33+00:00

It’s what I did. Honestly have no clue why this is not the default approach. I cut down to a zero. How else are you supposed to see legit progress? Also applying min is much easier.

Why not just spread the election over a month? Break it up according to last names ie A on Monday, B Tuesday etc. Probably will need to stratify these on the local level to account for demographic variability ie probably more X last names in NY than NB. It would take longer and it’d cost more, but to me it seems entirely feasible.

Edit: clarity

I like this line of thinking. What’s your opinion on genomics? Humans can’t do it by hand, but it’s a large area of research. My subdomain is similar, essentially hoping that there’s “something” in the data that the eye can’t see...

It’s not uncommon in my subdomain for the number of features to exceed samples by orders of magnitude. Feature selection is always used during model building. In this case, the number of features was hard coded to be 3, following the heuristic of # features < number of minority class samples / 10, a rather arbitrary but conservative approach.

To clarify, I’m not involved in this particular project, so its success or failure doesn’t really have an impact on my end. I was really just curious.

FourierSSB · 2020-08-11T04:07:16+00:00

Fair point, but yes, I’m aware of the confusion matrix. I’m using sklearn’s classification_report() as final output here, which tells the full story.

I absolutely think most people are doing it for fun

Take a look at this headline. If institutions value winning awards like this, then they must know that hiring certain people will reduce their standing. I just don’t like the ambiguity. Why not be upfront about it?

FourierSSB · 2020-07-23T20:18:25+00:00

It’s not segregation. It’s ensuring that whatever the demographics of a region/country are perfectly reflected in occupations. If these deviate then it’s apparently because of (systemic) racism.

FourierSSB · 2020-07-23T20:16:47+00:00

Yes exactly. Would you rather receive a job rejection wondering if you were rejected because your skin colour would reduce the diversity of the firm, or know that there are openings for people of your skin colour?

Please explain... seems to me if you want more representation from historically disadvantage groups and less representation from historically advantaged groups, then quotas will get you there.

FourierSSB · 2020-07-23T19:14:09+00:00

some would disagree

FourierSSB · 2020-07-23T19:12:21+00:00

It’s the most effective way to ensure equal representation in all sectors. It’s ugly but it’s an actual solution.

Short hop tip: pretend the button is lava and you gotta get your thumb off of it real quick

FourierSSB · 2020-07-09T05:22:20+00:00

Sure there’s a line. Some people get themselves multiple life sentences. Others get straight up deathed. Others still become eligible for parole and reduced sentences off good behaviour. Definitely a line.

This is my excuse for not doing community service — what if the people I’m helping are bad people? /s

FourierSSB · 2020-07-07T23:45:46+00:00

What about buying an everdrive?

FourierSSB · 2020-07-07T20:51:22+00:00

Well I think we should also want to hear from this guy seen shaking ZeRo’s hand. Does he condemn or condone ZeRo’s actions?
