@a1batross @peterdrake Hmm, that kinda makes sense. I do also wonder how much is just due to these models not being trained on as many non-whites in the first place

An image of @BarackObama getting upsampled into a white guy is floating around because it illustrates racial bias in #MachineLearning. Just in case you think it isn't real, it is, I got the code working locally. Here is me, and here is @AOC.

Hmm...hearing describe the RPGs he plays reminds me of the one I made as a kid but never completely finished, I kinda wanna go back and remake it now

Perhaps I would code it into a computer game so we could never lose the game board and cards and stuff

@Jojothegoodperson@freespeechextremist.com Quite a few, as we are taping it on Monday haha

@realcaseyrollins yeah a co-op would be cool for sure, because I agree it's important, but would think there's a lot of homeschooling parents not thinking this way at all :( -- leading to the unhappy products.

@HedgeFundWizard Fair. It's good to think about such things in case you get one tho, so props to you on getting the jump on that

I just found r/HomeschoolRecovery, perhaps that would be more of what you're looking for

reddit.com/r/HomeschoolRecover

I'd add that IDK what the rate of positive experiences to negative experiences exists among those who are homeschooled, but you might appreciate reading this.

I've been thinking about this too. But frankly based on my experience, i don't think I'd want my kid to be homeschooled in the absence of something like a co-op, so he or she can have social interaction

WHAT??? That can't be right, I know many people from my co-op days who hated being homeschooled. I disliked only the social aspect. Perhaps is different outside of the religious community tho

But yes in general sometimes parents decide to homeschool because they're very controlling and borderline emotionally abusive, which thankfully hasn't been my experience (to my knowledge; if you're raised with something in isolation you tend to think it's normal, y'know?) but that's certainly been the experience with some of my siblings' friends IIRC

@realcaseyrollins I was thinking about that too, because I was thinking about if I had kids would I want to homeschool them: yes... but what are the stats?

I actually looked up a subreddit /r/homeschooled thinking there might be horror stories, but nope, couldn't find anything.
the video of george floyd was truly mortifying, morally sickening to every degree and an injustice against our police system and an indictment against this failed society. but why are they looting so much? let's take a minute and cool down here
