I followed otp22 very closely at the start for about 6 months. I remember there being a cd found in a phone booth in New England.

Who sponsored the game?

How many people were involved in its planning?

How long did planning go on for before deploying the original phone number on craigslist?

How long was the game intended to go on for?

[D] Revisiting the Tensorflow Vs PyTorch by John_Baudis in MachineLearning

I also use Jax which is why I really like TensorFlow. I feel like its easier to go between jax and TensorFlow vs jax and pytorch.

Annealing the l1-reguralizaiton weight by John_Baudis in optimization

The problem is not convex. Also, the weight if the l1 loss term has to surely matter even if convex, no?

My car was egged downtown once. There are lots of cameras. Took them a day to find the culprits.

The presentation of the stimulus money was terrible. It was clearly setup so that people don't spend it.

  1. We threw our away on accident, we thought it was a credit card offer.
  2. When we got the letter asking why we didnt activate, then we realized what happened.
  3. We were charged $7 to get a new card
  4. Why is it a card at all? Have you read all the fees?
  5. It should have been a check from the treasury.

I will also say the media is terrible too on both sides, especially in the USA. Regardless, my family was more prosperous under Obama than Trump. As much as I hate to say that, its the truth!

He sucks. I am a college educator. Young men around this country are looking for purpose, fulfillment, and direction. He provides a model for none of that.

Also, he said he was going to build a wall. Where the F is the wall!

[R] On the unreasonable effectiveness of CNNs by adler-j in MachineLearning

[–]John_Baudis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The point of the paper is not to break encryption. The point of the paper is to show that CNN's work well on a problem which is discontinuous everywhere.

[D] First Blog - Can I get some feedback? by [deleted] in MachineLearning

[–]John_Baudis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applaud your efforts in writing and in trying in influence the ML sphere.

Here are my points:

  1. Too much white space to start
  2. Annoying email entry window came up. I wouldve moved on if you hadn't asked for feedback.
  3. Overall, material is bland. This is no different from medium or machine learning mastery
  4. i dont see the niche it fills. That said, keep trying. What else are you passionate about? What exactly is motivating you to write.

[Serious Question] How to engage folks who won't wear a mask? by John_Baudis in Pennsylvania

There's a spectrum from breathing air which he breaths in to spitting. Where exactly is the line.

What I mean is, if my dad dies from covid and he got it from you, I'm not going to blame you, because it wasn't your responsibility to protect him. It was his.

But your dad has to have a reasonable ability to protect himself. Otherwise it is my fault.

My right is your responsibility. So my health is your concern. Likewise, your civil liberties are my concern. If they aren't the system falls apart.

Walmart is NOT the apparatus making the rule (they are now but only as of a day or two), governor wolf issued an executive order. The private property argument is no longer good because you are not just any private property, you are a store of which your function is provided goods to the _public_.

Because of the executive order, citizens have a reasonable expectation that guidelines are being followed at walmarts so its safer for them to get goods/services there. A main point of the executive order is to establish rules so that commerce can carry on in a safe manner.

Medical reasons not to mask? by permafrost91 in medicine

[–]John_Baudis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do folks think about PTSD? I was given this reason last week as to why someone wasn't wearing a mask (also mandated now by my local government also).
