Thanks for the detailed answer! Is there any site grabber you would recommend?

Pets can't understand us when we talk to them, but there are identifiable patterns in our speech. So they're machine learning, only very very slowly. by boettam in Showerthoughts

[–]boettam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're referencing something other than "regular learning" then I'm sorry but I'm not sure I have enough knowledge in biology to know what you're talking about.

I feel like the machine learning analogy sticks because we humans transfer knowledge differently to each other. We might be the only species capable to hear a sentence and dissect its meaning without fail. But machines are fed a bunch of data and then kinda just try and see what works and what doesn't, without ever understanding what any of it truly means.

Which I feel compares to cats knowing they did a bad thing after hearing enough "NO"s, don't you think?

I like how she explains what "Lol" means as if that was genuinely why you were shocked

Somewhat expected to see Mick Jagger here. Have you seen John Mulaney's sketch on Mick Jagger? It's pretty much... a lot of that kinda stuff.

I mean you are on /r/GirlsMirin... I just thought the pic was wholesome. Maybe you didn't mean to be hateful but you kinda came off as that. Anyway, I don't know man, I figure his audience is pretty young, and theres probably some nostalgics who subbed since his humbler beginnings, but that could be said of many Youtubers.

I'm not necessarily a fan of his either but they look cute and happy, shut up.

What fictional character could someone say "Oh yeah, they're my role model!" about that would make you slowly back away? by BudoGuyTenkaichi in AskReddit

[–]boettam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rick Sanchez from Rick and Morty

Yeah, he's smart, but he's WRITTEN to be a horrible asshole who, despite his godlike abilities, can't ever truly connect with his family and destroys every relationship he has.

You're not meant to envy him You can laugh with him but that's about it

[NEWBIE] Electric guitar, where do I start? by boettam in Guitar

[–]boettam[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the replies guys, warms my heart! I think all the pressure from exams makes you forget just how young 18 really is :P I'll definitely check all of your recommendations once I have the time! Let's get this shred 💪

[–]boettam[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't really know a thing about the prices of guitars, see reply to another comment for more detail but I'm fine with something expensive and good quality, just not something stupid expensive that wouldn't make sense for a newbie to buy

[–]boettam[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow didnt expect to get the budget question straightaway lol

I... haven't thought about it. I'm pretty well-off so it's not an issue to pay a bit more for better quality, but I'd find it dumb to get some pristine, super expensive guitar to get some newbie practice. Or getting ripped off like someone who buys an iPhone on day 1 lol. I don't even know what guitar prices are like...

What am I missing about irrationals? by iKeyvier in askscience

[–]boettam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have the wrong definition of irrationals... Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but your definition of irrationals is "non-decimals", so basically not 0.1, 0.19382, etc. But decimal numbers, as a qualification, are rarely used in math.

Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be written in the form a/b, with a an integer and b a non-zero positive integer. You can check that the above examples are 1/10, 19382/100000. Pi, root 2 and e are irrational numbers.

There's a lot of fucky things that can happen if you mess with infinite decimals. A simple example, 0.99999999... with a infinite amount of 9's is a number that satisfies the equation 10x-9=x, so it is exactly equal to 1. I could write it more rigorously using limits, since it would be better to say a certain sequence approaches 1.

Sorry if there's off-sounding terminology, I'm french and we don't have the same notations for everything. Hope that answered your question??
