dumbfoundered··on Tool of Hope: A Sober Alchemy to End My Helplessness
This is interesting, but I'm disappointed that you (intentionally?) didn't give enough information to replicate your experiment.

What was your final list of ingredients?

Where did you obtain those ingredients such that they passed your HPLC test?

You say you "outsourced the processing of its core ingredients", but what was the final process done by the cancer researcher?

What does this even mean?: "... to feel socially confident or more curious I needed to adjust the dopamine agonization in the prefrontal cortex and GABA agonization globally"

It seems like you approached this mostly scientifically, but then you didn't "deliver on the goods" with the write-up. Maybe you are waiting to address some of these issues in your next post about results?

The RNN was trained on classical guitar music, but the resulting MIDI is being "played" by a string section, which highlights the separate voices.

No write-up here, as this is part of ongoing research, but I hadn't seen anyone trying to do polyphonic music with char-rnn yet, and I'm once again blown away by the power of this library and these techniques.
