from multiprocessing import Pool pool = Pool(16) results = pool.map(evaluate, datasets)
is there a good way to test github actions locally so I don't have to embarrassingly commit all my broken stuff and run it live, then undo it?
In retrospect Elo correctly predicted the winner of Genesis (among the entrants)

I love brackets, what a wonderful structure containing really interesting data
working on a new @sigbovik paper which includes esports data and rating systems, my only worry is that it's a little bit too serious and not jokey enough, gotta make up for that in the writeup
Pretty hilarious that if you use Elo without any decay in the model Armada is still the number 1 melee player
managing datasets with git isn't ideal but it's cool to see data coming in for different games :)
Watching LoL worlds tonight so tried plugging in T1 vs Weibo into my rating system benchmark code elo: T1 67.49% glicko: T1 66.60% glicko2: T1 50.45% (I think there's a bug lol) trueskill: T1 63.02% openskill bradley terry: T1 72.04% openskill thurstone mosteller: T1 71.75%
I have the deepest respect for those who create for the sake of creation -- out of passion, curiosity, creative wanderlust. We need more of them.
some very preliminary results using all default values, kinda proud of my benchmark pipeline that spits out a latex table
Cool new rating system from some students of Weng and Lin who brought us Online Bayesian Ratings in 2011! arxiv.org/abs/2310.10386… Comes with a python and R codebase as well! github.com/tofu-hua/vRati…
ok ruff is pretty nice, that along with polars being cool is making me think I should learn rust. people are making lots of cool (and blazingly fast) stuff with it
so many forks of python projects with the only changes be to enable them for python 3.8+... And PRs never accepted either because they would break ancient pythons or the maintainers are dust in the wind

Wondering how much progress was delayed by the chinchilla optimality paper, and people assuming that was a “given” because it came from DeeepMind.
I've been looking at parts of the new deep learning book by Bishop & Bishop, and some of the problems are really nice. For example, on high-dims., randomly sampled vectors are close to orthogonal -- a classic.
