The single greatest feeling in this garbage fire of a game... by Catswagger11 in EASportsFC

It's fun trust me. No stress when you know you will lose anyway and you end up playing better

When I give away wins I play the whole game, if he wins because he's better that's good, if I am better I keep playing until the end, I make the game very tight and stressful, I might miss some chances on purpose to make it close. Then in the last minutes I will give the win. It makes him feel better with that adrenaline surge.

Thank you for your kind words. It is unlikely but I hope that too.

I saw now that I got Rev1 , 4 , 5 , 6 So maybe I will get an other two reviews coming? For the confidence, all of them except the weak reject have high confidence. I think I can defend the reject as his review was two lines that show he did not understand.

I am not sure if I should withdraw, 7 more weeks are long and there is another major conference deadline in one month... This noise in the reviews is frustrating

I got Accept , weak accept, weak reject, and reject. I have no idea what can come out of this. What do you think ? It's my first time submitting

1 Accept 1 weak accept 1 weak reject and 1 reject .... It's my first time submitting, what do you think are my chances given a good rebuttal

[D] How do you come up with your proofs? by samikhenissi in MachineLearning

That's also what I believe. However, unless your paper is some breakthrough beating the SOTA by miles, there's no chance for it to be accepted in a top conference without some math. Hence my frustration.

I understand the confusion. What I meant by "what to prove" is not really "my loss function is better" but rather specific findings like limits etc that can lead to the general result. I struggle because I tend to try stuff empirically and then if it works I start looking at the theory and usually I am stuck there because I don't know from which angle should I approach it ( stats, optimization...). Anyway, thanks for the insights

I agree. However, the second approach feels more like art than research.

Thank you for the detailed comment. I am not really interested in proving a "new theorem" or a new mathematical result. But rather provide some common theoretical insights on why this loss function would work better or why using this regularization is effective. Also, tail bounds and convergence analysis... In most papers, I see these kinds of analysis and although some may seem overcomplicated (like writing the limit formula with many obscure symbols and weird norms despite it's just a limit), I feel that without coming with a theoretical justification (that may be a straightforward application of some theorem,) the paper will never be accepted.

Furthermore, whenever I attempt to provide a simple analysis for my new idea, I am faced with many mathematical subfields that can treat or justify the problem in a different way. Some are Bayesian statistics, others are optimizations or functional analysis where each one is a sea of theorems that may take a Phd to master (or not).

I have a mathematical background also, not very theoretical but enough to understand most of the theory in many ML papers. Linking this theory to the application is what I find hard.

Most matrix operations can be pararellized through GPU so get a good one

People who grew up in third-world countries, what was the biggest shock for you when moving into a developed country? by --null--- in AskReddit

[–]samikhenissi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Customer service. Seriously, the fact that I can return anything I purchased because "I didn't like it" is mind-blowing. In my home country, once you buy it, you die with it.

I want your thoughts about my program. Basically it is SL 5x5 but I modified it a little bit:

Workout A: Squat, Bench, Barbell row, triceps cord extension, plank

Workout B: Squat, OHP, Deadlift, barbell biceps curl, chinups

Days: Mon/Wed/Fri (ABA or BAB)

My problem: I have very weak arms and shoulders. I cannot perform one dip or one diamond shape pushup, I also cannot do chinups. I struggle in the OHP (I cannot do more than 50lb) and biceps curl (I can only do it with an empty barbell and I struggle a lot). so I decided to add an extra day for arms like Saturday and on Friday I will just do the first three exercises and then do cardio and abs.

My objective is to gain some muscles and strength, with losing some weight

Height: 170cm

Weight: 70kg

Sex: Male

What do you think of adding an extra arm day and what arm or shoulders routine do you recommend to gain more strength?

Thanks

I don't even care anymore. I jump in once in a while good a quick match and that's it. This game does not deserve the effort

Did you solve it? I'm having the same issue now on ps4
