That's not true. I have a German eBay account from May 2001 when we still had the DM. eBay was very popular back then and had a completely different feeling because it was mostly used by private individuals for selling their stuff instead of mostly professional merchants like it is today.
That was the forgers error. At first he claimed he bought it from the Red Cross in 2001 and didn'tmention how, then he claimed it was one of the first items he bought on ebay in 2003/2004 and didn't mention from whom he bought it, implying he bought it inlcuding the invoice.
Germany has always been a rather privacy conscious country.
Even now, I suspect if that badge fell into the hands of most Germans, they would either try to return it to it's owner or shred it on the basis that it's someone else's private data.
I had exactly the same thought (Hi Tomas and Janos) :D
The game is really cool, well done! It feels like a modern twist on pacman, but with space alien snakes and upgradable super powers. Should make for a good lunch break game.
I had a dentist explain to me that my lip could go numb with a 50% chance after my wisdom teeth removal with that exact explanation just two minutes before the surgery. I was infuriated, turns out I was on the lucky side of her coin.
I could be wrong, but I really don’t think permanent loss of sensitivity is anywhere that high. Though it sounds low for temporary loss, but then it goes away after a couple of hours or so.
It can really depend on how badly impacted the wisdom teeth are. There's apparently a lot of nerve bundles around the back of the jaw bone. If they really need to dig in there to get it out there's a risk. I've had multiple dentists talk to me about my wisdom teeth and all have talked about there being some significant risks with mine.
When parsing the proc files, many people forget that process names can have spaces in them and that causes some very funny outputs. The Python script in this posts handles those correctly, kudos.
That's one thing I don't like about Linux. There are too many times where one has to parse things that are not a proper serialization format, and the things that ARE proper formats are a actually a mix of multiple. Sometimes you even see binary files being used to store less than 100 bytes.
It would be cool if they just said "Everything here will be TOML" or something.
But I like to stick with higher level tools anyway and avoid touching the low level stuff on Linux, so it's fine in practice.
I don't immediately find it, but couple of years back there was a "meta-feature" which was the size of the MNIST image. I think that scored about 90'ish % accurate results on its own - without even looking at the image.
A few years back I worked on a project that involved fingerprinting screenshots of web pages, and compressed image size was pretty much as good as any fingerprinting method we could come up with for comparing the similarity between them.
What do you mean by “size”? Gzipped size? If you simply look at how dark a Mnist image is (count the percentage of dark pixels) you’ll get about 20% accuracy, which is twice better than random guess but a long way from 90’ish %.
What do you mean with accuracy here?
Usually 50% accuracy means cointoss, meaning 20% accuracy is equal to 80% accuracy, which is better than the article's 78% and not that far from 90%.
Only if your model is outputting a yes/no answer right? And that your definition of accuracy is "class with highest probability" (and not "N classes with highest prob")
If your dataset has more than 2 classes like MNIST, a super low accuracy only tells you to ignore the class the model guesses. It doesn't tell you which of the remaining classes is correct
