marysminefnuf··on Building a model that visualizes strategic golf
This is sick. But also i think that stuff like this is making us less human. Before tournaments good players take a book with then and their caddie and do this themself. A model takes all the fun and strategy out of it imo. Like if i suck at 7-9 irons but am good with my 4-6 irons this type of work doesnt take that into account. Also likee the optimal way to play a course isnt very fun. We play at a course where on the fourth hole we always play to the fairway to the left cause of all the trees. If a player were to use this they wouldnt have been able to come up with such a fun way to play the game

Defense does win championships though lol
marysminefnuf··on Palantir Gets Millions of Dollars from New York City's Public Hospitals
It seems like the sole purpose of palantir is to give data to the government they wouldnt have access to without a warrant. So now everyone is just being warrantlessly surveiled??? The difference between now and a few years ago seems to be that companies are assisting law enforcement with even more advanced datacollection.
marysminefnuf··on Homeland Security Wants Social Media Sites to Expose Anti-ICE Accounts
I want the government to know how i feel. I want them to see my posts and comments. If this anonymous surveilance without warrants is the only way to be acknowledged then thats a form of protest to me and it has made me want to be more outspoken knowing we are all being watched. Fuck ice.
marysminefnuf··on Ask HN: How should I proceed reading HN?
search for the things that are relevant to you and just ignore the ai stuff. new is the best section imo but its polluted by ai generated crap. also the flagged stuff usually means its a good read lol.

Literal evil
marysminefnuf··on [dead]
Absolute scam
marysminefnuf··on Ask HN: Do you subscribe to any magazines/publications
time is all in print. too many paywalls online. I really only get links from archive and hn gift links anymore. so much news I dont even click on because I know its just a paywall. I feel like people dont read a whole lot of news anymore because of them
marysminefnuf··on Jeffrey Epstein's Money Mingled with Silicon Valley Startups
what is it youre trying to say? im confused.

he got a slap on the wrist and did not serve meaningful time.

if I was a shareholder I would not want money flowing to a pedophile and would certainly not want money flowing to them as they continued to molest kids even after their sentence.

marysminefnuf··on Should States Reduce Teacher Licensing Requirements?
Here in michigan the problem is that you need an actual teaching degree to become a teacher. I had a business degree so i had to go back for a masters in teaching to become a teacher. Thats was an extra 13 prerequisites and 13 masters classes. I became a teacher when all was said and done at 27 after being in college since i was 18. Programs like teach for america can allow you to become a teacher in a shorter time frame like typically a year but i dont know about their quality. States need to scrap teacher license requirements so we dont have situations like mine where teachers have to essentially become a doctor just to enter the profession. My wife mary became a doctor in 8 years of schooling compared to mine at 9 to become a teacher.
marysminefnuf··on Moltbook is proof that GenAI was a scam
the math behind ai models to me makes it seem like a magic trick so I agree. I mean like even the circular dealmaking proves there isnt any math behind ai. if it was really more than a magic trick then the amount of energy put into it would have amounted to more incredible things. ai just isnt scaling.
marysminefnuf··on Why Boys Are Behind in Reading at Every Age
Teacher here. 30% of third graders here in michigan are illiterate. Not just not being able to read at grade level. Like illiterate period. How we do it generally across states is k to 2 is worksheet based instruction and 3-5 is entirely reading based. We started heavily drifting to computers after covid so these students can sometimes spend 3-4 hours everyday on iready etc. Any reading and work after third grade is usually done on computers in short passages. Thats the reason why students struggle with reading. Any other reason is bubbemisa or speculation.
marysminefnuf··on Selfhosted Bible PWA
Love it! Should try it with each set of religious books across all faiths.
marysminefnuf··on Show HN: A map of historical movies by narrative location and time period
This is sick!!! Would love to see old movies that take place in multiple countries. My wife marys family comes from iraq so if there were obscure movies that took place across borders that would be really cool to look that.
marysminefnuf··on Ask HN: How do you approach writing in the age of AI?
I give my 3rd graders an individual topic to write about based on what they like. Every 250 words is a new chapter. I check revision history in google docs to ensure they didn't use ai by copying and pasting from a prompt. We cant tell what is ai written anymore like we used to and ai detection tools are scams. We can still tell copy and paste though and if its pasted its always going to be from ai.
marysminefnuf··on Ask HN: What actually helped you reduce stress & sleep when advice didn’t work?
I prayed for god to give me peace if he accepted my prayers and then i got it.
marysminefnuf··on ICE expands power of agents to arrest people without warrants
A reminder to everyone that a lot of federal politicians do some form of community outreach.

Heres coffee with senator slotkin or coffee with senator peters for michiganders who want to schlep to washington or happen to be there

Theres people are not as inaccessible as you would think so if you want to give them a piece of your mind do it in person.

marysminefnuf··on OpenAI in Talks to Raise as Much as $100B
The company has done nothing but raise money off of tech that can be mathematically described as a magic trick. Its a literal scam.

Im jewish and constantly speak against the israeli government and the irony is that the government could very easily come after me for that
marysminefnuf··on Cool Discussion on Signs
I believe in signs. theyre real.
marysminefnuf··on [dead]
This started with hispanics then protestors and theyre going to come for those of us who are more and more vulnerable as the days pass. Its going to be african americans and then jews. Its disgusting and needs to end. I was at iac mishelanu last week and the so many speakers were from the administration like pam bondi and steve witkoff. They made it very clear in speeches ice will be coming into more cities with more troops.
marysminefnuf··on NYT investigation on an ice raid [video]
Im jewish and my wife mary is chaldean. I truly feel like the resiliency of our communities will protect us in a way that more vulnerable ones like hispanics arent able to swallow right now. They dont have meaningful political representation or access to politicians like we do so they are easy targets even though the vast majority detained by ice have zero criminal record. Its disgusting. I see people being detained every day for peaceful protesting and being called domestic terrorists but i also see more people than ever before protesting. I feel more hopeful about politics than ever before. Theres a reason ice is targeting places like minnessota and not here in detroit. They think of those places as vulnerable liberal snowflake pushovers they can easily target. I feel at peace here in detroit because i know the government would not get away with the same things. Nothing bad will happen here in detroit so i dont think the anne frank z’ll quote is applicable to everyones situatiom equally in mexicantown or dearborn or shelby township or sterling heights. At some point something will have to give, i dont know what it is but the government wont be able to get away with this much longer.

Yes i met my wife mary at college
marysminefnuf··on ICE takes back into custody man released for violation of rights
Why do people flag anything related to ice coverage? Ice are literal nazis cracking down on dissent, dont support the administration. You gain nothing for fighting their battles online.
marysminefnuf··on Why college students can't do basic math [video]
My students can do math. The problem is they cant pass standardized tests.
marysminefnuf··on [dead]
Yes
marysminefnuf··on [dead]
