<48dc8d29> this is pretty depressing – that group is usually pretty level headed
<48dc8d29> reading through the chat is like reading a parody of leftist ‘safe space’ drama with a lot of bad technical information taken at face value
<8f79fcda> And I saw that he works at baker hughes or something… one of the dod contractors
<8f79fcda> Scary mind to have in a place like that
<8f79fcda> The problem these dod people have is finding stable minds that can rationalize extreme force and extreme manipulation. Because… they too (the companies) are afraid of wrongthink blowback
<8f79fcda> So they get trannies to do the work so if something goes horribly wrong they can be like “oops sorry for hiring an unstable tranny – our bad”
<48dc8d29> that’s the first one I’ve seen from the contractor space tbh
<48dc8d29> that person seems to have a solid math background but they don’t seem to have a lot of experience with real people or building real stuff so idk what they actually do
<773ab1f1> booz allen hamilton
<8f79fcda> wave their feminine penis around and talk about how oppressed they are
<8f79fcda> and how communism is a cure of all ailments
<48dc8d29> gotta get that fully automated luxury gay space communism
<5547a085> To some degree in circles like that, LARPing can take on a life of its own
<8f79fcda> yea, booz allen. baker hughes is an oil co.
<5547a085> I have a few data science textbooks I’ve been working through this week
<5547a085> I’m gonna try k-means, and the other basic methods out using Ruby’s tensorflow: <https://github.com/somaticio/tensorflow.rb>
— somaticio/tensorflow.rb
— tensorflow for ruby
<5547a085> I’ve also been studying this older ML project called Shogun: <https://github.com/shogun-toolbox/shogun>
— shogun-toolbox/shogun
— Shōgun
<773ab1f1> LOL
<5547a085> I’ve been wanting to try ML out on market datasets for year(s), and I’m finally feeling comfortable with the material.
<773ab1f1> I’m on the Jeremy howard path at yoyo’s suggestion and am finding incredible value in it.
