| | | | | [AI summary] The provided text is a collection of comments and discussions from a blog post that originally criticized artificial neural networks (ANNs) in 2008. The comments reflect a range of opinions and debates about the relationship between machine learning (ML) and statistics, with some users defending ML techniques like support vector machines (SVMs), probabilistic graphical models, and deep learning, while others argue for the importance of statistical methods. There are also discussions about the need for better communication between disciplines, the limitations of ML approaches, and the importance of understanding the underlying assumptions of models. The text includes recommendations for textbooks and courses, such as 'All of Statistics' and Andre... | |

| | | | | [AI summary] The article discusses the intersection of science and philosophy, highlighting the importance of empirical evidence and the scientific method in advancing knowledge. It critiques postmodern science studies for lacking scientific rigor and credibility, referencing the Sokal hoax as a key example. The piece also touches on the contributions of non-Western societies to science and the need for diversity in the scientific community. Ultimately, it concludes that while philosophical reflection has value, it should not replace the empirical foundation of scientific research. | |

| | | Everybody who is following the Quantum Computing story will have heard by now about IBM's new chip. This certainly gives credence to the assumption that superconducting Josephon junction-based technology will win the race. This may seem like bad news for everybody who was hoping to be able to tug away a quantum... | ||
