The 100 greatest cathedrals in Europe, as picked by Simon Jenkins
countrylife.co.uk

Simon Jenkins gives himself a daunting task with his latest book, Europe’s 100 Best Cathedrals (Viking, £30), which does no less than attempt to both explain and judge the masterpieces of western civilisation. Clive Aslet took a look and found a tome that will set readers ‘afire to go on architectural pilgrimage’.

Cathedrals are a multi-generational project and, not to be entirely sarcastic here, a way of saying, “Well, yeah Jesus may return soon, but we’re going to build this FANTASTIC religious building that will take a hundred years while waiting.” La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona although a more recent example, follows this pattern. It was first started in 1882, Antoni Gaudi took it over in 1883, and it was consecrated in 2010—but is still not complete. In the middle of all that time, there was the Spanish Civil War and then the need to continually raise money. The basilica was briefly closed due to COVID in 2020. All the spires and thus the completion of the basilica are expected to be completed in, oh, about 2032, or about 149 years after the building was originally started.

Mary Trump:

“… what’s in the bill? And why don’t more people know its details? There’s a lot in it, to be sure, but it isn’t complicated. The benefits include:

Universal and free preschool for 3 and 4 year olds

$300 per month, per child tax credits for 39 million families

Significant investment in clean energy which will create jobs and is actually necessary in order to save the planet for our children and grandchildren

Reduction of prescription drug prices

And that’s just scratching the surface. Instead of informing the American public of this, however, the media claim to be shocked that nobody knows what’s in in while focusing on its cost (over ten years) and Democratic in-fighting when 1) I don’t remember the last time anybody in the mainstream media complained about defense spending.

$726 billion for 2022 alone—an increase of $29 billion over this year and more than the Department of Defense requested. As for Democratic in-fighting, 96% of Democrats in the Senate want to pass Build Back Better. Only 2 Democrats are standing in the way—along with every single Republican.”marytrump.substack.com

I don’t like our townhouse as a place to work. I lobbied to get to go to my office for a year, but was turned down.

I remember that John Cheever dressed in a suit and tie everyday, got his lunch, then walked out the front door around to the basement door that led to his office, and once there took off his suit and wrote in his underwear. Or at least that’s what I remember from a college English lit class. I bring that up because I did not do enough to create a “work” home as distinct from a home that is mostly separate from work (it’s not; I’ve always done a lot of work at home at night; but that’s different when you don’t have an escape route).

We wrote on slips of paper our deli orders and were told an approximate time to come to pick them up off of the table (usually 5-10 minutes). I know that wouldn’t have made the workers much happier, but I thought it was a good system and should have been retained.

At Zabar’s and Citarella, they made customers line up outside (painted feet on the sidewalk so we’d know where 6’ apart is) and only let in a certain number at a time.

Which meant we didn’t need to take a number and mill around the deli or fish or butcher counters, got served pretty much instantly. It worked out to a shopping trip being about the same amount of time, but without having to stand in crowds.

A Cranky One  Nov 27, 2021 • 2:52:31pm

I worked remotely the last 1.5 year.

Observations:

I tended to login earlier and work later when working from home since there wasn’t a commute.

Since a lot of communication was done via an texting type app, you could tell if folks were around easily if the didn’t reply relatively quickly.

Because my team was in multiple states and countries, being in the lab would have had no real benefit.

I didn’t have my time wasted by folks dropping by and chatting, or by folks coming to me for answers because it saved them time.

No time was spent going out for food at lunch time.

Bottom line:

For me, with my job at the time, it was much easier to hop on the company VPN when dealing with emergencies off hours.

The company got more time from me when I worked remotely.

It was far easier to accommodate my health issues when working from home, as well as being vastly more comfortable not having to worry about potential exposure to covid.

Since I retired in Aug the question is moot, but I’d have said no to returning to the labs.

It still will not let me past the sign in. I will take your word for it.

Are we talking about clicking on a twitter link here and going to the linked twitter page? You do close the dropdown box by clicking the “x” in the top left corner?

What browser are you using?

If you right click the date on a tweet click “open in incognito/private” that will allow you to browse the thread unmolested.

One of the things I’m still trying to wrap my head around with machine learning is that 100% accuracy isn’t achievable in the cases where machine learning would be useful. One of the practice problems is on the CIFAR 10 dataset, which consists of a bunch of images of things like airplane, automobile, bird, cat, etc., ten total categories. I’ve been playing around with training a very simple dense neural network (no convolution at the moment). The best I have been able to get is about 55% accuracy. which isn’t bad considering random guessing would be 10%. The best right now, with the technology available, is about 80%.

Why it’s hard to wrap my head around is if I wrote a program that parsed a file and was only correct 80% of the time, I would get fired. They are entirely different problems, but accepting that I can only get up to 80% accuracy for these types of problems will take a little getting used to. And how do you say “Yeah, this is pretty good for a computer” in a situation where it could mean life or death?

That’s one of the issues with artificial intelligence. It’s taking a computer - which is good at numerical processing - and trying to make it do something it’s inherently not good at - extrapolation. Human brains are extremely adept at this, but we haven’t really found a way to make computers think like human brains, and our best attempts are, as you note, riddled with inaccuracies.

I have the theory that insurers talk, and told them their premiums would go up if there was no vax policy. Or the other talents threatened to walk off if no vax policy, which would be rational in a TV studio.

There are some things where the computer has learned to be more accurate than the average person. The CIFAR 10 data set is kind of simple in that the images are distinct. If you go to the more complex ones, like determine the different types of dogs, or the different types of power tools, the computer can actually classify pretty well.

What do all these types of stories have in common? A gun was left in an unsafe condition.

When do we stop treating these as tragic situations as accidents and start punishing the assholes responsible due to their negligence and stupidity?

Not disagreeing about your larger point, but the state of the art for that dataset should be over 99%. You should be able to get to that number with about 15 lines of code using fastai.

US gun culture is fundamentally unserious because it’s built from the ground up to create consumer fetishism: it’s not a tool, it’s a symbol of all the qualia you want to adorn yourself with. People conspicuously consume gun stuff to say something about who they are, which is an entirely separate phenomenon than actually using a weapon for self defense (or killing someone, for that matter). The humiliating part is that many of them are not only bad at using a gun for its intended purpose, but have so thoroughly steeped themselves in the myth that ownership itself is proof of savvy, bravery, aggression—all the things required to competently kill—that they cannot be trained otherwise.

This is so deep that we’ve started alerting the parameters of civil liberties—the right to own a gun and self-defend (modified by duty to retreat) has been bent to “Stand Your Ground” and an enormous cultural machine that explains away honor killings and negligent discharge—we now are debated the right to kill with impunity when we talk about the 2nd Amendment. Killing is now assumed to inevitable, the question is whether killing can be framed in terms of the qualia that gun culture narratives sustain. Shit, this is why Grossman’s Killology is treated like actual crisis-response training by PDs: he sells cops the idea that they’re warriors and it’s actually awesome that they can kill without hesitation.

One of the things I’m still trying to wrap my head around with machine learning is that 100% accuracy isn’t achievable in the cases where machine learning would be useful.

There’s some cases where machine learning can be useful but I think a lot of the benefit for many applications are:

1) A computer can do it much cheaper

2) Any errors are not going to affect a company much, even though they might affect individuals quite a bit.

For example, training people to be able to evaluate mortgage applications takes a lot of time, and even once trained they can only evaluate so many applications in one day.

A computer, once trained, can evaluate many more, and a large number of the bad results are going to affect people who aren’t in position to complain:
