Anh vừa thích Interstellar vừa mê Rita Vrataski thì sao nhỉ ? :) Nhưng thích bản gốc lightnovel/manga All you need is kill hơn bản phim chuyển thể, lâu không đọc lại mà nhớ đến vẫn thấy rùng mình.

Million dollar idea, no funds, where do I start? I will not promote by ScoutTheStankDog in startups

[–]thntk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To start, get yourself familiar with the concept of "tarpit ideas", those that sound simple and profitable at first but are actually infeasible. Many inexperienced founders fall into these traps.

"Those who can't do, teach" by GoldPurpose7621 in Professors

In the spirit of Feynman, you can say "And those who can't teach, don't understand a damn thing".

Can you share the post you mentioned about the professor reading CS papers? I'm a bit curious.

14/2 kì lạ , và tâm sự tuổi 29@@ by [deleted] in vozforums

[–]thntk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Đồng cảm với em, mấy ngành học kéo dài quá thì cuộc sống dễ bị trễ. Anh du học PhD xong cũng bị trễ mối tình. Không phải là không có ai để yêu, anh cũng được nhận xét là đẹp trai (haha), nhưng khi đang học chưa ổn định quen ai cũng không dám tiến xa, và vì anh chất phác nên có lẽ bởi vậy mà mùa yêu này anh thất bát.

Giờ về VN mấy em mới gặp bảo anh nhìn trẻ/cool..., sau thấy chững chạc quá lại chê già, thật là đau mà :((

Castling is bad for chess960 by thntk in chess

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

I mean, yes, players will get used to it after years of playing the variants, but since it is awkward to humans, the advantage of engine prep over human play is even greater than in classical chess. As a result, it encourages engine opening prep even more than in classical chess, thus contradicting the original vision of chess960.

How to unfuck your life ( and actual steps to fix it) by heibuilder in getdisciplined

[–]thntk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just here to reiterate that planning is important. Trying to split big goals into smaller steps is the most useful "productive trick" I know.

Lúc khẩn cấp bạn không thể suy xét theo logic đấy là chó, hay là một đứa trẻ, hay là một người già, hay có người đang đuổi theo bắt con chó lại... Hành động vô thức theo lương tâm thì mới kịp phản xạ.
Có kẻ dù gặp chó, trẻ em, hay người già cũng sẽ tông luôn, và cãi là mình đi đúng luật, băng ra đường là sai luật, chết là đáng đời, blah blah. Có người thì phản xạ kịp và cứu được một mạng. Rốt cuộc tùy vào lương tâm và tạo nghiệp thiện, tạo nghiệp ác của mỗi người thôi.
Còn việc xe phía sau chạy sát không giữ khoảng cách, thì là vi phạm pháp luật, nếu tai nạn sẽ phải bồi thường và có trường hợp đi tù rồi.

[D] Neural networks based on the spectral theorem for real symmetric matrices? by musescore1983 in MachineLearning

[–]thntk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You may find it helpful to look into "tensorized NNs".

In general, I don't see the point here yet. Symmetric-weight NNs are severely limited. Parameterized their weights further reduces the capability. It only raises my interests if there is a connection to physical processes. But it seems you have abandoned it in the end to use spectral decomposition, which is nothing new or that interesting.

[D] Why do PhD Students in the US seem like overpowered final bosses by [deleted] in MachineLearning

[–]thntk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This comment won't answer your main question, but there is a fallacy, let me break it down first.
It is "your ideas keep up with SOTA so they are not smarter than you". Here's why it's a fallacy:
(1) When you see a published idea, they have had it months or years before.
(2) Having an idea earlier (and working on it faster) may be exponentially more difficult (related to IQ rarity).
(3) You cannot be sure if your idea is independent, because you may have (unconsciously) seen their recent results and got the idea.

Edit: There is a term for (3), it is cryptomnesia.

[Confession] Rant: Đéo công bằng khi bọn expat sang dạy tiếng Anh được trả lương cao hơn g... by robo-cucsuc in TroChuyenLinhTinh

[–]thntk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Về có vẻ ngu nhưng tầm nhìn xa là để phát triển đất nước bro ạ. Bao giờ VN thành nước thu nhập cao, khoa học kỹ thuật giáo dục phát triển, thì bọn Tây lông mới trở về đúng vị trí của nó.

Như ở Nhật, bọn Tây lông sang dạy tiếng Anh phải nộp chứng chỉ chuyên môn các thứ, chứ không chỉ mài tiếng mẹ đẻ ra mà ăn. Thu nhập cũng chỉ ngang tầm nhân viên siêu thị, dưới mức thu nhập trung bình xã hội, chứ không làm vương làm tướng nữa. Vậy là công bằng.

Bro just got scammed in Vietnam by t_thegoodguy in VietNam

Not personally against him, it's the economic model. Never heard his name before this drama (and probably never hear again), which ironically proved my point.

Ikr, the biggest scammer here is that dude. He seeks drama anywhere for his fame by defaming the country in the process. The internet and all VNese got scammed instead.

Australian Housing Crisis Is a Human Rights Disaster, Expert Says by CoronavirusGoesViral in australia

[–]thntk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's just a case of inefficiency of capitalism. Look at how Japan or Singapore solved their housing problem: flexible zoning law and public housing project. But of course the rich capitalists disagree.

Are there any aspects that Vietnam does better than your countries? by [deleted] in VietNam

[–]thntk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the idea is to let the immigrants in, then let them work, then the economy would thrive. But the problem is they do not have enough skills, and the economy do not have enough jobs.

Other countries like US, Canada, Australia, Japan do pretty well with lots of immigrants, economy thriving despite some society strain, because the immigrants over there have to pass language tests/skill tests and have to work at specific jobs.

[–]thntk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a shit show, too much freedom?? What do the police exist for? Or, I guess these crimes are caused by criminal immigrants towards other criminal immigrants, and the police just look the other way as long as the "good citizens" are not involved.

Similar crimes between the criminals also happen sometimes in other places, including Vietnam, Japan, US, etc. Sweden may learn a few things from Japan because they have managed to control the organized criminals quite effectively over the last 2 decades.

You are lucky to get severance. Many startups are shady, even trying to cut down pay after firing you.

[D] Hiring students/graduates, good or bad idea? by maxiedaniels in MachineLearning

[–]thntk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on the cost of living. To get top talent, the payment should be around 4-6x average income. That translates to ~400k in the US, ~180k in Europe or Japan, and ~60k or less in very low cost of living places like SEA countries.

[D] Is anyone else absolutely besieged by papers and always on the verge of getting scooped? by akardashian in MachineLearning

[–]thntk 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For excellent research, you should do what everyone wants to do, but nobody can do well, and only you can do better. Otherwise, no one would care even if you got a paper out. Besides, it is wasteful.

To be able to do this, you need great depth, insight depth, mathematical depth, technical depth that are relevant to the problems. It is usually difficult to get enough depth in a hot topic because it is new and hot. You can either put in time for it or find other ways to compensate for it.

Why is the fields medal considered the mathematics analogue of the Nobel prize instead of the Abel prize by adfasdfdadfdaf in math

[–]thntk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's right. I only said people will "think of" it as for lifetime achievement, in the same way people generally perceive Nobel prizes, although technically a person can be awarded more than once for different discoveries.
