Re: Israel, land of milk and honey

@Cuchulainn, I'm not surprised that the word "dancing" makes you think about men (no judgement here). 
But, if you decide to do judo/sambo/boxing kind of dancing, feel free to ping me, I'll make time in busy schedule. 
No problem, you two would be a great dancing pair, so you would.

RoR was grandson of "The O'Rahilly"
My grandad was there in 1916 and survived, otherwise my pen would be still.

The "good" news I suppose is that bloggers don't post those dinky neural networks (as often) like they used to.

Is deep learning defunct as an idea? No one talks about it anymore. Problem is that no one really talks about the "how" on any of this stuff much, just the stochastic parrot than randomly churns out output.  A few years ago here was DL all the rage https://forum.wilmott.com/viewtopic.php?...

Re: Physicists, Stop the Churlishness

This aspirational English upper middle class... constantly unsatisfied. The happy know no hours (or translating the Polish saying literally, they don't count time).

Re: Trump -- the last 100 days

I see a city in the desert lies
The vanity of an ancient king
But the city lies in broken pieces
While the wind howls and the vultures sing

Re: Trump -- the last 100 days

+$355M. Not that he’ll actually pay it, of course,  but it helps cement the crime family image. Four criminal trials to go, although sadly no capital case yet. We can always hope! The legal proceedings can drag forever up to Supreme Court. Trump has nontrivial chance to overturn it.  Jared Kushner ...
