My Pi ended up as a retro console and kodi machine stuck behind my telly. Best use for it IMO. Unless you’re about to build a robot.

The two work in tandem don’t they really. I mean the care is for your health and cuts to one tend to mean strain on the other as we’ve seen. Take it out of local council budgets and fund it nationally at least. It won’t be cheap but it’s an investment everyone will need eventually. I’d rather...

I think what’s scary is that we have run on an honour system of sorts for a while: don’t play to people’s base prejudices, don’t bullshit entirely (just a bit), etc. That’s gone out the window entirely. Johnson, Trump, Bolsonaro, etc are just following a template we’ve known is powerful since...

My ex mother in law is a carer, the stories I’ve heard: not paid for travel time when it’s more than half her hours, treated like shit, 10 minutes to do a full “care” for old people with multiple conditions. So shit.

Google executive took part in Sage meeting, tech firm confirms Actually don’t mind this. But I’m a total Hassabis fan boy. Deep Mind have done a lot of work with the NHS and it’s a passion for him but this Guardian article makes out it’s just “random tech bro” thing. I really hate the...

Care workers should be part of the NHS. Care in this country is an absolute scandal. People would rather draw some rainbows and clap than demand politicians fund it properly though just in case they have to give up £30/month of their £80k/year salary.

Masks will obviously slow the spread. The counter arguments to what you’ve said are: they serve as a visual reminder of the situation, they help people not touch their mouths out of habit, and they prevent asymptomatic people spreading it unknowingly. We aren’t looking for perfect. We are...

The comment I replied to was saying WHO said masks were pointless. They don’t. Whether they are perfect or whether behavioural science is a respectable discipline are different questions entirely.

Yes really. Go to the source.

I don’t see the issue with BCD. The aim is to keep R0 below 1, not to eliminate all infections. In the grand scheme of things it’s not going to move the needle to have a few fit young players with the best medical care taking sensible precautions at work. All else fails they can play like this:

Id like to see correlation with authoritarian societies if such a measure exists. Like countries where people follow rules easily or are forced to.

Im assuming Germany don’t have the invasive contract tracking tech SK do? They tend to be a lot hotter on data protection. Birthing the Stazi will do that to a country.

Now you know how Mrs TGP feels ;)

No. They say wear them if you are sick or in contact with those who are sick. Which would apply to people post lockdown.

My Dad gets my daughters Kiwi crates each month, the STEM ones they’re pretty great generally TBH. Tinker Crate: STEM & Science Kits for Middle School | Ages 9-16+ | KiwiCo

No problem. If you go the Word2Vec route you’re probably best to use an existing trained model rather than worry about training your own from scratch. Google’s News one is as good as any: Google's trained Word2Vec model in Python · Chris McCormick And this talks about using GenSim and Python...

Same here on both counts.

Have a look at scikit learn (sklearn) very easy to use out the box models. There’s a good text classification algo using bag of words on the 20 newsgroups dataset that’s very easy to understand I did for my Masters: 5.6.2. The 20 newsgroups text dataset — scikit-learn 0.19.2 documentation...
