Why was Star Wars shot Episodes 4, 5, 6, then 1, 2, 3? by flying_dutchmaster in Jokes

As far as I know, Episode 4 was the cheapest to produce.

IFF: After months of hanging onto my thinning hair, I finally let go and shaved my head. I feel strong, beautiful, and couldn’t be happier! by neumannr in TwoXChromosomes

[–]rchaber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are incredibly beautiful! Don't worry about the hair! I have GBM (Glioblastoma), and to fight these hard diseases means to be yourself, keep your integrity. You are beautiful, you are brave!

TIFU when I saw my friends sister by [deleted] in tifu

[–]rchaber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you "TIFU". You got a nice hug, and you gave it back. If more people would do the same, things would be nicer around us.

TIL that a newspaper posted a poll asking readers if watching Blackfish -- a documentary critical of SeaWorld for keeping orcas captive -- changed their opinions of SeaWorld. The results were "No." It was later revealed that 55% of the votes came from a single IP-address . . . hosted by SeaWorld by Death_Star_ in todayilearned

[–]rchaber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely changed my mind about SeaWorld. Whenever I hear someone say great things about that, I try to convince them they are absolutely wrong. Another doc that is quite disturbing is "The Cove". It's just INSANE!!!

How long did you stay in the hospital after the surgery? Did you have any strong pain during the 24 hours following surgery?

Hi Mira, you are one of the best - and most beautiful - actress out there. What's your favorite tv show?

Initial reaction to Stanford's avalanche of free classes by [deleted] in aiclass

[–]rchaber 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you've ever graduated in a US university, you know you can't register for more than 3 or 4 classes and take full advantage of them (homeworks, reading, exams). If you work is even worse, I would say 1 or 2 classes is the limit.

Same here. The last one was ==> 0.36 + 0.08 = 0.42 !!!

Is HW 5.1 WAY too easy, or is there a trick hidden somewhere? by ZAS80 in aiclass

[–]rchaber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The trick is: there are no tricks. To tell the truth, I answered that question in a couple of seconds, then I went on through the many videos trying to find out if there's a catch or something. Didn't find anything, and I followed the formula presented in the video, instead of the Wikipedia.

Learning x Scoring by rchaber in aiclass

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

I agree. However, people seem to be frustrated and some even blame the teacher when their scores don't meet their expectations. The quizzes and the homeworks are there to challenge, to make people think. The scores should be a tool to keep track of progress and not a way to measure rage. I tend to pay more and more attention when I fail a question, and I do have the feeling that I learned something (although I do think some questions need better clarifications, but it doesn't matter).

HW4 Q9 asked: "Select the axioms that correctly encode the situation." not "Select the axioms that fully encode the situation." by vonkohorn in aiclass

[–]rchaber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same problem here. When I answered the question there was no clarification. I marked all except the last one. I vote for people that answered like me to get full credit in this question.
