"We demonstrate the importance of bidirectional
pre-training for language representations". can some one help me understand what bidirectional and pre-trained means?
* bidirectional - build representations of the current word by looking into both the future and the past
* pre-trained - train on lots of language modelling data (e.g. billions of words of wikipedia) and then train on the task you really care about but starting from the parameters learnt from the language modelling task.
The less meaningful work I get done during the day, the less energy I have after 5. Most days, I'll make quick dinner, turn on YouTube, watch videos for 10 minutes, and suddenly it's 11pm.
You just described my life for the past 3 months. It's winter though, so I just attributed it to that. Also I'll be quitting my job soon and then go somewhere where I don't have to deal with dark, cold winters anymore.
I guess there's an upside to being a long-time single with no attachments.
I meant, physically, what gives different? why after applying the gate once on 1 there is a 50% the spins flip but when applying to 0 no-chance of that.
The states you get are H(|0>)=|0>+|1> and H(|1>)=|0>-|1>, both of which have 50% probablity to end up as 0 or 1 once they are measured. The difference of the "-" in the second state is only visible if you carry on the computation, not if you measure.
It was a different country. how well can ex-slaves and bushman run a country? democracy is not rooted in every culture, greed is :\
EDIT: just to be clear not every person in charge is ex-slave or something, but as a country even if they started financially strong it does not mean they had the culture to support it
Ah, colonialism. Construct a system designed to prevent people from having autonomy or self-governance while shipping their value overseas, then smear them as primitives when they take over and have difficulty with autonomy.
Greed per se is not the problem, it is greed above all else. The number one problem in Zimbabwe is corruption. Only once there is a strong body, be that courts, a corruption commission, or similar, that has the power to hold those in power to account then little will change. Zimbabwe badly need an effective rule of law that provides justice to all.
background:
President is old and have succession problems. In recent years his wife trying to grab more and more power to be the next president but not everyone in the ruling party like that. last week she (from the mouth of the president) fired "number 2" in the country. since then everyone who was "friend" with number 2 was fired too. when they tried to get rid of the army general (friend of number 2) he refused to leave his office in claim that president wife doing undemocratic things. yesterday he did the "takeover". its not yet clear if the president will switched with the number 2 guy (the friend of the general).
Really interested to read more about this. This is really the most critical point of the succession question: Who can get the military to follow him. Both the highest general and the government leader have strong claims for military leadership and there is no pure logical answer if highest general and government leader don't agree. All depends on what happens between the different parties.
That was my interpretation too, until the end of the article when they said the military men who seized national TV actually spoke harshly of the general close to number 2.
Those were the same military men who said that the military had custody of Mugabe, so it's somewhat confusing.
The military is behind Chiwenga (friend of number 2), they only spoke harshly of, 'the criminal elements within ZanuPF. By 'criminal elements' they are referring to the G40 (anti- number 2 camp who got number 2 fired). The military has detained a lot of these 'criminal elements' and apparently Mugabe is also under 'house arrest'
For the past century raw scores on IQ tests have been rising; this score increase is known as the "Flynn effect," named after Jim Flynn. In the United States, the increase was continuous and approximately linear from the earliest years of testing to about 1998 when the gains stopped and some tests even showed decreasing test scores. For example, in the United States the average scores of blacks on some IQ tests in 1995 were the same as the scores of whites in 1945.[61] As one pair of academics phrased it, "the typical African American today probably has a slightly higher IQ than the grandparents of today's average white American."[62]
