This is truly an incredible breakthrough IMO. Really exemplifies what you get when deep domain expertise (population/disease genetics in this case) fuses with cleverly crafted ML. What u get r sleek, well thought out architectures that absolutely destroy the behemoths. Wow!! 1/

Don't spy on people. The Chicago Cubs are being sued for violations of the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act. The lawsuit claims they've been collecting facial recognition data without notice and consent. Which means also minors. Photo: David Banks-Imagn Images

It's only been the default since the 1980s. Reagan wanted to fund a lot more science but needed a way show the money was wisely spent and academics came up with peer-reviewed journal publishing.

After the Soviet Union collapsed, there were Russian PhDs driving cabs in America. Their degrees had no value because the degrees were what students chose rather than the world needed. Spending $200,000 for a degree in history also doesn't make it worth $200,000.

Oxford Union is a debate group and while most of the members come from the school, the school doesn't fund it or control the crazy people. It's located in the city of Oxford so the school can't even block sociopaths from using the name.

It's not true in any field. Some labs require post-docs to have their own funding so some department may have a standard that's higher due to grade inflation in undergrad.
