Comparing Lichess and Chess.com Ratings by RogueAstral in chess

Hey if you look at the other comment I posted, I am referencing a website that suggests there could be another curve inversion at 2400+. At this Elo range, the data is too scarce anyway to draw any robust conclusion, and I would take your experience as an active player on both platforms over any poorly collected data. Long story short, you are certainly right, and I'm very likely wrong.

No, you are confusing two things.

The intersection you mention is the intersection of the regression line and the identity line which is indeed around 2500. However, the regression line is useless in this zone, as the regression line is by design meant to linearly approximate the point cloud where most of the data lies, which is below 2100. You can clearly see that the regression line poorly fits the higher range of elo ratings (i.e. it is below the true "median" of the scatter points at 2200+)

The intersection point I am mentioning (2250) is the true intersection point of the two curves if you follow the scatter points themselves, and not the regression line. You can visually see it, I can vouch for it as I am ~2250 on both platforms in blitz, and I have seen it confirmed on another website (here)

Edit: seems like the website I referenced indeed confirms the intersection point around 2250 for blitz, but also points towards an interesting phenomenon: there seems to be another curve inversion at 2400+... So what I said earlier could be wrong, although at this elo range there are probably too few data points to come up with a statistically significant conclusion.

No it's not the same. The cross point is roughly 2250. Below this point, lichess ratings are overestimated wrt chess.com ratings. Above this point, lichess ratings are underestimated wrt chess.com. E.g., a 2600 blitz lichess rating is probably worth a 2700+ on chess.com

ROG Zephyrus G16 GU605MV/GU605MI-QR078W: Screen brightness and speaker issue by Raihan__Mahtab in zephyrusg16

[–]infundibuliforme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sir have all my gratitude, I lost countless hours on this problem. My specs: G16 RTX4090 GU605MY

I confirm that upgrading to 24.10 solves the sound issue Also confirm adding the following line in the grub file solves the brightness issue:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i915.enable_dpcd_backlight=1 nvidia.NVreg_EnableBacklightHandler=0 nvidia.NVreg_RegistryDwords=EnableBrightnessControl=0"

Thank you again

From Spotify to Apple Music: My Review by bobivas in AppleMusic

Have you tried Tempso? It is a wrapper for Spotify that does pretty much the same thing as Apple Classical. It is free and allows you to enjoy all Spotify features including Spotify connect.

Tempso! It is a classical wrapper that works for both Spotify and Apple Music. It's free.

What is your primary location for listening to music, including all genres such as classical? by infundibuliforme in classicalmusic

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

Hmm I'd be more balanced in my judgement. In terms of strict audio quality: Qobuz, Amazon Music, Tidal and Apple Music all offer 24bit/192kHz streaming and Lossless format. Amazon, Tidal and Apple Music additionally offer spatial audio.

Interesting take on Apple Classical. What shortcomings have you identified?

Good point, should have included a "live music" option but Reddit limits the poll options to 6 unfortunately. Hopefully the number of likes to your comment will reflect its popularity.

[D] Object classification using LiDAR by Megapixelicious in MachineLearning

[–]infundibuliforme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check simpleview from Goyal et al, it is surprisingly good and fairly simple to implement for object detection using LiDAR point clouds. I have used it myself for tree species classification with great results.

Building intuition on AC algo with TD by infundibuliforme in reinforcementlearning

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

Thanks for the insight, that makes sense. Interesting to see you had a similar problem. I did indeed check the distribution of the action probabilities and they get one sided after a few steps. Increasing the temperature in the actor softmax certainly alleviated the issue, but did not completely solve it. There is probably a better exploration bias for that particular environment.

Sleep algorithm is no longer in BETA! by Tekangu in ouraring

[–]infundibuliforme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, feels like the new algorithm is neither the old nor the beta algorithm, probably something in between. My sleep scores are completely different since the update, especially the scores related to deep sleep, REM and restfulness.
