The joys of many languages, chapter XXIII. We designed a dense dashboard with a column "On track?" Problem: the Polish translators say that "On track?" is "Czy wskaźnik jest na dobrej drodze do osiągnięcia poziomu docelowego? " The dashboard design destroyed🤦‍♀️😬🤣#dataviz #EU

@DotCSV @_naisstep @javilop @Tenchi Pienso seguir leyendo a Marcus y a ti. Aunque coincido más con su punto de vista de desinflar los hypes del estilo de ”¡la AGI está a meses vista!". 😇

@_naisstep @javilop @Tenchi Y la mejor prueba es que "los rumores" no son rumores sino información oficial publicada desde el primer momento tanto por OpenAI como por ARC-AGI. Porque no es nada que se deba esconder, es la práctica habitual del mundo del Deep Learning. Mi consejo, bloquead a Marcus :)

No estáis preparados para la que se nos viene encima.

Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. When someone says 'science teaches such and such', he is using the word incorrectly. Science doesn't teach anything, experience teaches it.

Un estudio, que implicó escanear los cerebros de más de 10.000 hombres y mujeres sanos de entre 18 y 97 años, encontró que los que hacían ejercicio moderado durante 25 minutos a la semana tenían cerebros más grandes que aquellos que no lo hacían.

When I started working on AI four decades ago, it simply didn’t occur to me that one of the biggest use cases would be derivative mimicry, transferring value from artists and other creators to megacorporations, using massive amounts of energy. This is not the AI I dreamed of.

Bayes' Theorem, a fundamental concept in probability theory, was named after the Reverend Thomas Bayes. It describes the probability of an event, based on prior knowledge of conditions that might be related to the event. In simple terms, it helps in updating the probability of a hypothesis as more evidence or information becomes available. Historically, Bayes' work was posthumously published in 1763, after his death. His theorem laid the groundwork for what is now known as Bayesian inference, a method of statistical inference in which Bayes' theorem is used to update the probability for a hypothesis as more evidence or information becomes available. Bayes' approach to probability was notably different from the frequentist approach, which dominated statistical methods at the time.

If you cannot explain something in simple terms, you do not understand it. -- Richard Feynman (1918 - 1988)

There were many brothels in ancient Rome, but standard Roman coins, Serters and Denars, were not used and were even banned from being there. Store-bought Tokens were used for Denar and Serters and images on them were often obscene. Reason is understandable, because on all Roman coins there was a head image of emperor of that period. Even picture of emperor entering the brothel was synonymous with humiliating and cursing him. Of course, punishment was severe. In resorts like Herculaneum and Pompeii, brothels were much busier places. Over time, such places encouraged their customers to use their own currency, called spintriae in Middle Ages. Prevalence of prostitution in Roman culture can be inferred from concentration of this coin in circulation and abundance of examples at these resorts in southern Italy already mentioned. This was a fairly common phenomenon for those dealing with day-to-day money in brothel coins in Rome. On the obverse and reverse of coins were various sexual images, often depicting people making love. One of theories regarding the purpose of these coins was to advertise price of sexual activities. Moreover, the transfer of this money between two people (the buyer and the “seller”) created a certain privacy. This was especially useful for high-status people to hide what kind of work they did at night. According to some experts, price of event was written on back of pictures of these coins. It was a system that helped break down language barriers. If this theory is correct, it means that these coins are more of an ordering tool than a form of payment. For example, when you say "I want number 4" at McDonalds, the corresponding money is given. A Roman brothel coin found in London in 2012 was under investigation. As it is known, Romans set up tents and camps in Ancient Britain. This strengthens the theory that coins in question were used as a tool to cross language boundaries. In Britain the spread of language was even slower, but these coins served to universalize language. #archaeohistories
