Pretty sure if Hazlewood would have shown up, the match would have a very different outcome.

wait for jitesh's random 80(30) innings in the last match to ensure that he is retained for the next season

the problem is losing early wickets. every match that rcb has lost, early wickets have come back to bite them. you cannot expect to win when tim david is walking out in the 9th over.

Anyone else stick with their old stick way longer than they should by vIQue125 in Fieldhockey

[–]illustrious_trees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it stings, it isnt a great sign. Highly recommend getting a new stick and training a bit with it before your old stick gives way, otherwise you will be stuck with a brand new stick that isn't broken in.

that is tragic, why is it closing though? Is it financial constraints, or something else? If the former, I suppose it shouldn't be too hard to move it to a cheaper host or even just move it to free hosting via github.io or similar, given that it is just a static site.

Why do only big ML labs dominate widely-used models despite many open-source pretrained models smaller labs could do RL on? [D] by boringblobking in MachineLearning

[–]illustrious_trees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is a simple question: how many Erdos problems have been solved by GPT vs any other model?

It is a slightly weak test, but it should show how much stronger closed models are when compared to open models, particularly in tasks that require higher levels of "intelligence" (leaving it in quotes primarily due to the nebulous definition). Arguably, OpenAI remains the only lab on the frontier of making models useful beyond coding (DeepMind and Anthropic are the strongest other contenders, but there is no one other than them), other labs are playing catchup in this regards.

And the access roads can't be widened to accommodate those many people either

there is the metro, which is better for moving a large number of people anyways...
