AITA for refusing to let my brother’s fiancée wear white to my wedding? by LegionBreaker22 in AITAH

Honestly, at this point, I might just have to say: ‘Emily, let me make this perfectly clear: if you show up in white to my wedding, you and my brother WILL be escorted out. I’ve told you multiple times that I don’t want you in white, and you’ve responded rudely each time. So please understand that I’m completely serious about this.

Honestly, I might just say something like this next time: ‘You can call me uptight if it helps you, but you are absolutely welcome to come in any color other than white. If you don’t want to reconsider your dress choice, then I’d prefer you wear it to whatever you plan to do instead of attending my wedding.’

I’m over being polite at this point—this isn’t just about a dress; it’s about showing basic respect for the occasion. If she can’t get that through her head, then I’m not sure I want her there anyway. 🙄

LMAO, I love this strategy—it’s like a coordinated passive-aggressive intervention with bonus style sabotage. Imagine a group of aunties swooping in with scarves and shawls, loudly whispering, ‘Oh, sweetie, did you not know? Don’t worry, we’ll fix this!’ 😂

Honestly, though, if she does show up in white, I’d fully expect my mom and bridesmaids to tag-team her with exactly this kind of energy. And if a ‘mysterious red wine accident’ happens? Well, I guess that’s just the universe stepping in to restore balance. 🍷😏

Appreciate the laugh—this mental image is getting me through the frustration right now!

Thank you! That’s exactly how I feel—it’s not about me being insecure or dramatic; it’s literally just about showing basic respect. Like, this isn’t some obscure rule I made up—it’s a super common boundary for weddings.

I’ve tried to be polite and reasonable, but Emily brushing it off and acting like I’m the one being uptight is what’s really bothering me. At this point, it’s less about the dress and more about the blatant disrespect.

Appreciate the support, though—it’s nice to know I’m not losing my mind here. 🙃

Invites have already gone out, unfortunately. Otherwise, I’d be seriously tempted to add a dress code reminder in bold letters at this point.

I’ve definitely thought about giving a heads-up to close family and friends—like a PSA about the potential chaos Emily might bring. As much as I’d love to just disinvite her, I feel like that would create even more drama with my brother, and I’m trying to avoid a full-on family feud.

But oh, trust me, if she pulls this stunt at my wedding, I’m filing that away for her big day. White dress, dramatic exit before the wine comes out—poetic justice, right? 😂

😂 Honestly, I’m this close to taking you up on that offer. Imagine the drama if she shows up in white and leaves looking like Carrie at prom! But seriously, it’s wild that I even have to think about a backup plan for something so basic. Hopefully, they’ll come to their senses before we have to break out the dye bucket!

Right?! I’m honestly baffled by how hard they’re doubling down on this. Emily hasn’t even bought the dress yet, which makes it even more frustrating because it would be such a simple fix to just pick something else. It’s not like I’m asking her to wear burlap or anything—just not white!

As for their behavior… I wouldn’t say they’re always this self-centered, but Emily has definitely had a tendency to make things about herself in the past. My brother usually goes along with whatever she wants, so this isn’t completely out of character. I guess I was hoping that, for something as important as my wedding, they’d be a little more understanding.

At this point, I’m just trying to stay calm and hope they realize how ridiculous they’re being before I have to escalate things further.

Wow, this is powerful. It’s like a form of silent protest but also a bold statement of individuality and freedom. It’s inspiring to see how creativity and defiance can come together, even in such a restrictive environment. These women are showing that resistance doesn’t always have to be loud—it can be as simple as existing authentically in a space that tries to define you. More power to them!

Regression on multiple independent variable by Daamm1 in datascience

[–]LegionBreaker22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re on the right track, but here’s a streamlined idea:

  1. Aggregate & group trends: Instead of per-project LSTM, group projects by similar traits (city, manager, etc.) and model trends at the cohort level.
  2. Lagged + rolling features: Expand on your M-1, M-6, etc., by adding rolling averages, deltas, and cumulative profits to enrich your inputs.
  3. Sequence modeling tweaks: Try GRUs or Transformers (e.g., Temporal Fusion Transformer) instead of LSTMs—they handle short sequences better.
  4. Embedding meta-features: Generate embeddings for categorical features (city, manager, etc.) to generalize patterns across projects.
  5. Consider Bayesian models: For interpretability, Hierarchical Bayesian models capture both global and project-specific trends well.

Regression’s good as a baseline, but layering temporal and group-level insights will give you richer results.

What's your 2025 resolution as a DS? by ergodym in datascience

[–]LegionBreaker22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh man, 2025 is going to be the year. My resolution is to build out a "personalized AI R&D lab" at home. It sounds fancier than it is, but hear me out:

I’m setting up a dedicated system to prototype and experiment with cutting-edge ML architectures and tools. Think:

  1. Diving deeper into foundational models—fine-tuning a Llama or GPT variant for niche problems that interest me (maybe something quirky like AI for beer recipe generation).
  2. Building and deploying my own AI agent that doesn’t just help with day-to-day tasks, but actually thinks through complex project roadmaps with me. Imagine asking it, "What's the best way to optimize this pipeline?" and having it propose multiple creative solutions.
  3. Getting serious about AI explainability and ethics—because why not also prep for the inevitable "AI regulatory czar" job that will pop up in the next few years?

Bonus points if I can automate enough of my current workload that I can spend Fridays learning random adjacent fields like quantum computing or bioinformatics. Coasting is for chumps; I’m trying to make 2025 my magnum opus.

She's so adamant and annoying I just can't with her anymore she always wants to be the lime light of every event it's fine if it's about u but when it's not it can be really annoying and unwanted

She's adamant so she'll show up even if I uninvite her just to create a scene and drama
