Re:Linus Torvalds apologizes for his behavior, takes time off on Wednesday September 19, 2018 @01:02PM (#18025688)
First, you are intentionally limiting the scope of my claim. "Unforgiving" is just a synonym of "harsh", "challenging" or "adversarial", not about actual person forgiving someone.

Second, your logical proof is wrong. The existence of resource scarcity in the global scale does not mean the global resource scarcity, some places may have enough resources.

This is another way to say

> we believe the world is harsh and unforgiving

You seem to have internalized this perspective completely.

Re:Learning Plannable Representations with Causal InfoGAN [pdf] on Wednesday August 01, 2018 @03:06AM (#17660268)
This approach is very similar to a AAAI18 paper [1] that also finds a binary representation ("plannable representation") using VAEs and performs planning algorithms, but the difference is that they included some experiments for continuous abstract states. I personally prefer VAEs because GANs are hard to train.
