Naive Bayes

Lover of boundary conditions w/ interesting emergent behavior. Data hermit working in DSP/SATCOM. Observing-with-wonder all forms of natural and man-made signal. Located in a remote sun-beaten patch of the Yakima fold belt, south-central Washington state.
Thanks, not sure I've seen the interviews, I'll go look. She's an interesting statistical outlier in many regards.

In the last year, haven't heard much better than ambivalence from either side at best (and often closer to this thread otherwise.) Sounds like her story resonated with you though?

My sense: she often prescribes what is mathematically near middle-ground but in context seems absurd-- stuff that doesn't seem like the product of intrinsic motivation, so the result seems calculated and insincere to all parties.

Maybe I'm naive to her better work? Interested in your perspective.

Good questions. I searched for text in the screenshot and found it's hosted by WinRed, a platform officially endorsed by the RNC, giving it surprisingly clear provenance.

I appreciate your sentiment.

As an individual I feel that new tools and approaches have put so much in reach that used to be the domain of only large teams with a lot of resources.

As an engineer I'm often ashamed of my association with the field of data science and avoid mentioning it publicly.

An exemplary photo of Amanita muscaria. In particular, makes it really easy to see that the annulus is a remnant of the universal veil.

Thanks for all you've shared of Copalis. Our family gets excited for each new photo. Not able to visit but used to know the beach well, nice to see it again.

Same limited allocated bandwidth, along with limited access to YouTube. Machine-generated summary attached, full markdown in the alt text.

I thought this must be an understatement given the responses, so I reviewed the transcript myself (yeah, no time saved, oops) but came to the same conclusions.

I found what I felt was more sincere support of a similar mission from Internet Archive. They are operating on much thinner margins so donations make a non-trivial difference.

Note that creators of content for Wikipedia get nothing when you donate, much of what those donations finance are of dubious value, many creators of content have left Wikipedia to not be associated with their aggressive begging, and Wikimedia has massive reserves already.

So AI reduced demand on a non-profit's resources.

Wikipedia's own statement of the purpose:

I've written things for Wikipedia in the hopes of sharing info by any means. The info sharing goal seems sadly disconnected with the goals of their current management.

I liked this game. It had a bunch of developer rants and other "notes" or something like that embedded in the ROM.

Thanks for your exceptional documentation here, been watching with quiet fascination.

Strangely well marked on the silkscreen, looks like a "polished" Western dev board. Better marked than most dev boards I've worked with, strange.

Note: the outcome of "100% turnout" may be different from the outcome of "fewer felt alienated."

Additionally, "100% turnout" implies those with no strong preference cast an arbitrary vote, which becomes an arbitrary choice with hindsight bias when polled post-election.

For those curious, pictured is the Cuyahoga river near Cleveland, OH.
