Reading old books is worth it. New ones are hard to filter and many will turn out to be completely unnecessary.
Leaves you on the sides of contemporary culture but at least you're reading efficiently.
So the model can be transformed to output part-of-speech words, dependency grammar trees or named entities in input even if training data is sparse. Similarily, you could fine tune it to produce game lore and then see how it works for that. The model easily switches to different modes of operation and achieves state-of-the-art or close to state-of-the-art performance.
It's quite funny how NLP folks tried to solve low level tasks (POS tagging, NER, Named entity relationship extraction, dependency parsing, sentiment classification etc.) to get to higher level tasks (good summarization, machine translation, text generation, question & answering) and now a single model captures all the low level stuff for free and does high level stuff so good that finetuning it to do low level stuff is unnecessary.
I love how nested lists inside objects can expand into a particular one with the .[] operator.
For example:
{ a: [{b: 5}, {b: 3}], c: 5} can be transformed into: [{ b: 5, c: 5}, {b: 3, c: 5}] using jq '{c: .c, b: .a[].b}'
For heavily nested XMLs I can get a nice flat output.
Moving to any other major European city would require me to at least double the income to maintain my standards.
Anyone who isn't a child won't be able to make these adaptations and anyone who isn't on a starvation mimicking diet but is trying to gain or maintain weight on diets filled with dietary cholesterol will almost certainly start building up plaque.
Yes, dietary cholesterol has a low effect on blood serum cholesterol after some amount. So yes, increasing the consumption of eggs from 5 to 10 a day won't linearly effect the blood serum cholesterol.
Problem with fasting mimicking diets is that they are not a cure and are not long-term.
Also, consuming only things that are easy to digest makes you digestion more fragile to varying stimuli in the future. Which is why people who are on these "rejuvinating" diets for a longer period of time tend to experience their disease symptoms much quicker when they go back to eating vegetables rich in antinutrients.
Here's a very nice study where all Masai participants had atherosclerosis. Some even died from heart disease being less than 20 years of age: https://academic.oup.com/aje/article-abstract/95/1/26/167903
"These pastoral people are exceptionally active and fit and they consume diets of milk and meat. The intake of animal fat exceeds that of American men. Measurements of the aorta showed extensive atherosclerosis with lipid infiltration and fibrous changes but very few complicated lesions. The coronary arteries showed intimal thickening by atherosclerosis which equaled that of old U.S. men. The Masai vessels enlarge with age to more than compensate for this disease. It is speculated that the Masai are protected from their atherosclerosis by physical fitness which causes their coronary vessels to be capacious."
Although, I had so much fun. I was playing mostly openings with 2nd move being the one with queen. Got to about 1700 rating on that site in bullet (3-5 min game). This was the result of about 1 year of heavy addiction (2-10 hours of chess per day).
Once these natural stores of gas start getting into atmosphere due to 2nd-3rd-nth order effects these little gas leaks from human made oil wells are nothing.
Natural sugar is magnitudes times better than processed/added sugar.
Fructose consumed through fruits has never had a similar metabolic effect as high-fructose corn syrup.
For example when you use polynomial kernels you do not add extra dimensions to input vectors explicitly but you could use a linear kernel and add quadratic terms to the input vectors and still get the same separability.
