    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Friend of my GFs family in the Netherlands just did it (assisted dying). They had a sending off party. All seemed quite nice tbh. I certainly want to go before dementia or similar gets me. It’s my biggest fear and would suck down any inheritance I build up for the kids.

    Yeah but you aren’t trying to predict an entire game and we have things like the Monte Carlo tree search algorithms used in AlphaGo that mean you don’t need a full information picture to make accurate predictions about future states. Brute force algorithms running every possible scenario is...

    If we can predict next frame of video we can predict next frame of video. You don’t need to model everything because everything isn’t relevant. You can get 98% of the way and that’s good enough. Yes a player can do “anything” but mostly they play football and that’s within a fairly limited...

    Obviously to be perfect you want weather and wind models and all that bullshit but you’re probably looking at <1% accuracy gains for huge effort at that point.

    Football is absolutely not infinite, there’s a limited number of players in a limited space. The barrier to modelling isn’t resolution, we can accurately model the weather after all. We can absolutely build a predictive model using some kind of tokenisation and traditional feature extraction...

    If you’re off work on the sick you’re not unemployed so you’re not in these numbers. This is economically inactive and not looking for work so includes students carers, retirees, housewives, etc.

    We’ve just had a pandemic and waiting lists are at an all time high. Also this is going to include all early retirement people right?

    Fucking crude oil prices up 5% cos a senile man said something. But yes serious people it’s renewables that are expensive. Can we please stop linking our economic capacity to a bunch of backwards arseholes in the desert please?

    Knowing what I know about the PIP application process I find it very unlikely people are defrauding disability benefits at scale. Is this the whole far right thing of “we don’t need migrants because we can force everyone to work who isn’t right now” stuff?

    Bassette is too raw to start IMO. I’d have him for the last 20 mins or so and BTA or Simms to start based on form. You want three strikers really.
