Nimitz14··on Are deep neural networks dramatically overfitted? (2019)
I really do not understand your post. One doesn't train on the test set, so of course it's reasonable to think that increasing the number of parameters will cause more overfitting.
Nimitz14··on Elon Musk’s anti-union tweet from 2018 must be deleted: U.S. labor board
The point is I'm not an American/Japanese who is biased against German cars for whatever reason..
Nimitz14··on Elon Musk’s anti-union tweet from 2018 must be deleted: U.S. labor board
The middle class is also much, much poorer.

You know what they also all of in common? Zero innovation since decades.

And German car engineering is mostly known for being overly complicated, I say that as a German.

Nimitz14··on Other challenges to SV’s preeminence are more fundamental than the tech diaspora
Housing is cheaper when the economy is worse. See Berlin.
Nimitz14··on Other challenges to SV’s preeminence are more fundamental than the tech diaspora
Forgive me for my ignorance, but could the issue have not been the ML but rather, put simply, the input data? Is it the case that we truly know what signals to measure to get a clear indication of intent? It seems to me the answer is no (then ML is not going to help)?
Nimitz14··on Ghana will no longer sell cocoa to Switzerland
Uuh have you not heard of xiaomi or oneplus? They're already creating high value goods.
Nimitz14··on UK to depart from GDPR
And the coverage sucked. The care provided by the NHS is very poor while paying its employees very little and forcing to work with garbage equipment.
Nimitz14··on Why winter exercise can be especially hard on the lungs
His comment still does not make sense as a reply. I'll admit my response was poor as well.
Nimitz14··on When did writing in major newspapers become so bad?
Just because you don't like a piece of writing does not mean the writing is bad.

> I have so many questions. > Is the person a writer for New Yorker? Is The Drunken Canal somehow related to the New Yorker? What is The Drunken Canal? How was she “regretting” something at that point in time? Vocally or otherwise? What publication was being stored in those unmarked white newspaper boxes? Wait, is The Drunken Canal a publication?

> Something like this would be more clear:

It's also more boring. There are people who like things to be a bit more entangled, as real life often is, and that's what that writing caters for.

People like this guy who seem to be believe there's only one correct way to write, who actually believe you can put writing that is supposed to be pushing the envelope into "an app that identifies poor writing" and use the results piss me off. Grammarly and similar have their uses of course, but I dread the day people actually use it to clamp down on anything that's slightly different than the norm (as this guy is doing), and everyone will be forced to write in a style that conforms with what an ML model says is okay. It is my personal nightmare.

I was a bit flippant, yes sometimes you have to breathe through the mouth but whenever possible one breathes through nose.

Boxers don't. Is that hard enough for you?
Nimitz14··on Female Founder Secrets: Fertility
Best of luck calming the baby down without the mother.
Nimitz14··on AI ethics research conference suspends Google sponsorship
This is an ambiguous, and therefore bad, title.
Nimitz14··on Why did I leave Google or, why did I stay so long?
You couldn't be more wrong.
Nimitz14··on Why did I leave Google or, why did I stay so long?
You're clearly not very intelligent if you can't conceive of people having a different attitude towards life than yours. Basically every big shot entrepreneur ever had opportunity to work at their equivalent of Google, and yet they didn't.
Nimitz14··on Why did I leave Google or, why did I stay so long?
At will employment is the correct method. Otherwise you end up with stagnant economies with low pay like in Germany and France.
Nimitz14··on Why did I leave Google or, why did I stay so long?
They're paying you to do a job. They're not just paying you to "put in the hours".
Nimitz14··on Why did I leave Google or, why did I stay so long?
As if their work culture has anything to do with it! Thanks for the laugh.
Nimitz14··on Why did I leave Google or, why did I stay so long?
Great comment. I completely agree.
Nimitz14··on The Making of Facebook’s Supreme Court
Sorry for OT but man I love the New Yorker. Best subscription I've ever payed for.
Nimitz14··on Short fat engineers are undervalued
Bad article. Noone is just an expert in one thing and can't do anything else. What actually happens is by becoming an expert at something you also learn things that will help you elsewhere, which means you can pick up other things more quickly. So the choice is either between someone who is an expert in a one thing and knows a bunch of other things, or someone who just knows of bunch of things.
Nimitz14··on Parents of daughters are more likely to divorce than those with sons
I don't think we should do that. I don't want to wade through the posts of adolescents, which is what reddit mostly is now.
Nimitz14··on Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Robinhood
Amusing to see someone so confidently wrong about something.

It is clear from your comments you have no clue what you're talking about. Stop spreading misinformation.

Nimitz14··on Software engineering topics I changed my mind on
