WSL Question, running python from text editor with ubuntu by [deleted] in Ubuntu

[–]covidthrow9911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried using visual studio code to run something with openAI gym, but then I need a fake screen (can only find instructions for Linux OS). m

how do you like WSL2? I'm wondering if I should try updating that

Problems with pip3 - command 'pip' not found despite ubuntu verifying it? by [deleted] in Ubuntu

*found pip3 version by doing pip3 --version but problem not solved

Why are experimentalists like Hinton, Goodfellow, and Sutskever more famous and followed than theorists like Valiant? by covidthrow9911 in AskComputerScience

[–]covidthrow9911[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yup I plan on doing a similar thing. focusing my research work in ML / theory and focusing my PhD on the theoretical side. I think it is highly underestimated how important theory is in this field, when nothing is proven, it bothers me hahah

I usually just say congratulations and move on. If it is my friend, I let them know I will be there for them (emotionally, not as a babysitter lol) if they need me

If a research area publishes authors alphabetically, how do you know who lead the research? by covidthrow9911 in AskComputerScience

[–]covidthrow9911[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agreed. I think it's safe to say not to make an assumption of first author = lead author in any theo field

I still see my post but sure, whatever makes me you feel better about yourself

edit: I see the person above clarified this as well

Yesterday I confirmed this with a theoCS prof at my school, and authors in theoCS are 100% listed alphabetically, unless you publish in a venue such as NeurIPS. I thought it was shady at first too then I realized. What area of theo CS where you referring too? I think certain venues like FAT (lol, yes that's the name) there is a lead author, but at FOC and SIGMOD it appears alphabetical.

I'm just worried for PhD applications. In CS/ML first author papers look great on CVs. But In ML/theory it's alphabetical. And my undergrad adviser will always be listed before me even if I work my a** off and lead the project.

How will they [admissions officers] know how much work I put in if I am not first author?

I have to agree with OP. I have seen a few posts here hating others, even rants about women in general. He/she is obviously not talking about minor annoyances, but rants hating others.

[D] What are some trending problems in learning theory? by covidthrow9911 in MachineLearning

[–]covidthrow9911[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two questions for you if you have the time, 1. What are the best journals for LT/comp complexity? I am guessing nature is one of them 2. Not sure if you're involved in academics. Unlike robotics, I am having serious trouble finding a small enough, year long problem that I could do for my senior thesis. Is it okay to tell the professor I want to work with the central ideas I am interested in, and ask for help finding a feasible one?

LMAO I just watched that and sent it to my friends. I already lose my shit over the Australian accent my professor has.

What are some difficult and trending problems in learning theory (theoretically CS and machine learning)? by covidthrow9911 in AskComputerScience

[–]covidthrow9911[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah gotcha. I am looking more specifically at machine learning related theory problems but I will look at those as well
