> The only thing is that nobody understand why they work so well.
This is exactly what I have ascertained from several different experts in this field. Interesting that a machine has been constructed that performs better than expected and/or is performing more advanced tasks than the inventors expected.
I think it's important to go into an interview with the mindset that I am interviewing them as well as they are interviewing me. Why give them a reason for withdrawing an application if they don't ask for one? If they ask for a reason, it starts to become a negotiation.
Great article!
My opinion: the ones interviewing you for a position should be the ones you will be working with from day to day. This way the both of you get to evaluate how you feel about working together. I have declined job offers where I didn't like the persons I was going to work with.
Chef Jean Pierre is the best, he explains so good that I really need to listen once to remember forever. Before discovering him, I wasn't interested in cooking at all and I listened to all the other chefs like Ramsay and Oliver but they don't tell you the complete story.
I completely agree about the excellence of Direct Democracy (DD). One of the most common arguments against DD is that: "people aren't smart enough or knowledgeable enough to make important decisions". My reply to this is: and current politicians are?
Politicians obviously aren't smarter or more knowledgeable than the average citizen, they are more inclined to act in their own best interest rather than the public's best interest though. We get rid of the middlemen and we get rid of: corruption and the abuse of power. The Swiss are doing excellent with DD!
The European Commission (EC) is particularly sinister in so many ways and not like any previously known modern democratic entity. The EC has been constantly pushing for less democracy, less transparency, more censorship for decades. All the while the horrible president von der Leyen makes billion dollar deals with Big Pharma in complete secrecy without any repercussions or oversight.
Europe is doomed if we don't destroy the EU in its current form, but how?
The author says that health insurance in Europe is provided by the govt and for most it still is, there are plenty of people getting private health insurance as the govt health sector is collapsing, so this argument is mute.
Also, in the 23andme data is risk of getting hundreds of diseases, any private health insurance company would love to see this data to deny paying you any compensation, OBVIOUSLY.
I have never given my DNA to any private company and I never would, if you have: delete it!
You're right that it can be difficult diagnosing children but that is why, at least here in Europe, kids are observed by medical professionals along with their parents over several visits to child and adolescent psychiatric units. Sometimes they are even admitted to get even closer to a correct diagnosis. Also, almost all parents will seek help very early if they have any suspicion of disease in their child which makes this tech useless and probably stigmatizing to kids and families.

"2.1 The characteristics of the first large oscillation (12:03) indicate that it is a
phenomenon generated within the Iberian Peninsula. It is an atypical
oscillation, with a frequency of 0.6 Hz, and its origin has been correlated with
the operation of a facility. In addition, the system operator has identified an
atypical behavior in an installation in the wind farm."
Could this have been a deliberate attempt to crash the grid?
I have mentored and been mentored and it's a tough process but necessary. It's what is stopping a lot of people learning a new profession later in life in my opinion, who would want to mentor an older person? I mentor young people with lots of energy and they are often very eager to learn.
Thank you for your insight about the hiring environment! What are your thoughts about getting involved in an open-source project or something else to get some more experience?
I can take a pay cut definitely. I am a hobby programmer writing simple programs for my own use in Python but I have signed up for a university Python course to get better. I was thinking of getting involved in an open-source project but where do I find them? Very grateful for any help!
