Could Obama have been reading the wrong newspaper?
Obama says a lot of shit. The basic strategy is to say so much shit that some of it sticks. This works because the media is on his side.

I manage to completely forget all those moves I foresaw so brilliantly, and make the absolute worst possible move I could have made instead.
In chess thats called Kotov Syndrome
In Kotov's 1971 book Think Like a Grandmaster, he described a situation when a player thinks very hard for a long time in a complicated position but does not find a clear path, then running low on time quickly makes a poor move, often a blunder.
I once lost a game of chess to a guy who was partially stoned
Probably because he was stoned. The downsides to being high, as it relates to chess, can be managed.. while the upside remains.
(the downside is that you are more prone to overlook things, the upside is that you can focus quite well on specific things.. "wide" vs "deep")
as a kid I enjoyed chess and played with my friends right up to the point where you suddenly had to start memorizing openings and other canned sequences.
The world champion doesnt do this... prior champions certainly have but the current one isnt looking hard for an advantage in the opening...
But believe it or not eventually that magical flammable liquid won't come out of the ground anymore
You keep worrying about imaginary places and times and let the rest of us deal with today.
I hope you aren't suggesting that Republicans do care about science
Neil deGrasse Tyson certainly thinks they do.
the devil is in the details:
Yes, such as the 50,000 studies they "use" annually.
Thats 137 studies 'used" per day.
I guess common sense doesnt figure into your view of things sine you quoted the part where this is detailed, but failed to notice how ridiculous this is.
A 1um laser fired out of a 1m aperture
Why are you using a 1 meter aperture, and why are you not using such a large aperture for focus at a distant point?
A laptop battery has a greater energy density than a hand grenade.

Maybe you should consider what you are saying before you say it.
There is a word for persons who place their idealism above what is good for the country
Gotcha... discuss. Do try to keep it intellectually honest.
Look at his paper and also at the sup for his paper. Is it in there?
Which paper? The one you claim was funded by someone?
This post is funded by unemployment because at one time I got some money from them.
If his papers are fine then why did he not disclose his funding source?
Prove that he didnt. Currently, all there are are claims that he didn't under the premise that sometimes he is funded by X but in some papers he doesnt say that he is funded by X.
25 years ago I collected unemployment or a few months, which is why I am now disclosing that this post was funded by unemployment insurance. Also, its funded by the lottery administration because once I had a $4 winner. Not to omit anything, my current employer is also funding this post, and lets not forget that my friend paid for dinner the other night.
Sure, none of that actually funded this post, but then apparently you dont have to prove that they did in order to damn me.
Now people have a lot more success with deep learning, mostly because they've been throwing a lot more hardware at it.
Bullshit.
The success of deep learning coincided with the discovery of a novel training method, not improved hardware.
Why even open your mouth?
