@servant_of_the_anime_avatars yea that clearly doesnt help. But I think they were borrowing from the "feel" of conditional probabilities which uses a similar looking format with a similar flow to it... but not a good move IMO

@icedquinn

Not sad, @djsumdog just broke my heart is all. I thought we had something special, but clearly I was just his side-fedifriend.

For some strange reason this post keeps getting posted on my timeline over and over again.

@servant_of_the_anime_avatars Set builder notation, while neccesary and something I use often, always makes me go cross eyed, even when it conveys simple sets.

@djsumdog

Its ok, while my tears may indicate im sad the fact that i have more tears to add to my tear collection makes me happy. So its all good. I just hope I have a big enough vial for this one.

When you hear the word "graph" what do you think of?

@lupyuen is this tensor flow running on an arduino? Whhhaaaaa... no way

@geotechland
So few things.. first his comments about the fact that the victim wrt minsky presenting herself as willing makes perfect sense.

First as he said it is no less wrong but because she is being coerced she would not have said so to Minsky. Epstein is the bad person for coercing for sure, and he had said as much,. But since its unlikely minsky knew, and the victim never said anything to the contrary, its a perfectly reasonable assumption and not in anyway hurtful, to think Minsky was ignorant to that coercion and that the guilt of doing so rests on Epsteins shoulders not Minsky's... How does speaking the truth on the matter hurt victims? Its not like he implied the act was ok or that the victim was any less victimized, he simply stated where the blame for corersion rested.

Second what he said on pedophilia needs to be taken in context. What he said was it doesn't make sense for pedophilia to be morally defined by where you live. A 17 year old would be underage in the USA but that is the age of consent in england for example. In fact since he said it while talking about a case where the woman was 17 it is clear he was talking about cases where the age is borderline. He was never talking about consenting 10 year olds being ok. This argument as well is nothing to throw a fit over, his point is entirely valid in that regard.

Im fact nothing he said in those emails were even remotely problematic and in no way should even be an issue right now. In my mind it makes no sense and comes across as just toxic and unnecessary yo blow it up the way people have.

@realcaseyrollins

the format is so simple its gotta be a 15 minute to implement feature.

Awww, sad I didnt make the cut :)

I think it really just boils down to the evaporation of nuance and a black and white mentality where nothing exists in the middle lest it show sympathy to the other "evil" side. So if you dont jump on the bandwagon and what it stands for you are assumed and treated like you are on the opposite side. So you do it so you arent left out by "your people"

Take RMS as an example, to the cancel crowd it boils down to: RMS supports pedophilia, is hurtful to sexual assault victims, and hates women. So in their mind you are either pro social justice and women's rights and thus want to cancel RMS, or you are a rapist or rapist apologist and want to support him. There is no inbetween, there is no nuance. So unless the american liberal mentality is the group you are already outside of and dont associate with you will jump on board or be considered the bad guy, so you jump on board, even if you do have a sense of the nuance, you wont date say it.

This happens from the conservative side too on other issues, and this one. If you may not want to cancel RMS but still dont agree with him the conservative american crowd might just equally consider you the enemy (though there are issues they care more about than this one).

In the end the people who have it the worst are the ones in the middle who actually see the nuance and talk about it. Those are the people both groups (who make up 98% of americans) will hate. Each will see them as a member of the other group when in reality they are hated by both. So the true social suicide in america is caring about details, nuance, and not being extremist on every issue... and the result is massive toxicity.

@xj9

@geotechland I've read his emails and im just left thinking "make a mends for what".. I'm still utterly confused what the issue is at all.

@niconiconi

One week later:

"My project now operates on gamma rays"

@niconiconi I would tend to agree with that. Hell I use ground planes on far less than that, and have been bitten in the ass when I didnt.

@niconiconi Instead of going 4 layer I usually use a breakout board, which itself is a hassle for production... Seems you managed to do it all in 2 layers though, so thats good!
