So do you feel this hatred towards Monte Carlo sampling methods, or Gaussian Mixture Models, or Finite Element Method solvers? It's all just math and it is being applied towards both how to grow crops better and how to make bombs. Seems pretty naive.
Yes, of course. Monte Carlo killed my father.
You know what the problem is? You think that you're too smart to be caught with a meth addiction. See, your neighbor got fucked up, lost a bunch of his teeth, but you, you know about microdosing.
Your other neighbor fell off a construction site that was missing its guard rails, but that wouldn't happen to you; you have excellent balance.
The movie Jurassic Park is literally about people like you.
Do you have a reason to restrict Gaussian mixture models you'd like to give me, or are we just pissing in the same bush?
lol ok, please keep sharing how you don't understand anything about ML or even just... math/science in general, it's actually entertaining
Understand what? That you have a robot girlfriend you don't want to give up? That you would burn the world down for Her.
You know, human love is just a biochemical response to external stimuli, I'm sure there's a drug that can replace it.
ok buddy, best of luck to you I guess
You know what all those methods have in common? FUCKING evaluation of smooth continuous functions based on a limited number of samples.
REAL MEN WRITE REAL PROOFS. They don't use God damned computational methods which completely IGNORE non-converging regions.
I used opus to generate this lean-verifiable proof that you in particular are full of shit!
