<UmbralRaptop> Huh, mailing in my AAA renewal requires putting in credit/debit card info. (Not a check)
<UmbralRaptop> Yes, mailing makes sense here.
* UmbralRaptop lives in 1989?

<egg|cell|egg> UmbralRaptor: AAA?
<egg|cell|egg> Are you renewing a long scream
<e_14159> UmbralRaptop: There's an advertisement in the subways here saying "Did you know a company from Munich is Europe's largest fax service company?"
<e_14159> Which, admittedly, sounds impressive. And then you remember the year.

<UmbralRaptop> e_14159: 1989, obviously
<UmbralRaptop> egg|cell|egg: is the long scream when you input a long into a text to speech program?

* UmbralRaptop chirps at egg
<UmbralRaptop> "Side note: This problem has been disastrous for radial-velocity surveys for planets, because in most cases, the observation planning has been done by people in a room, talking. That's extremely hard to model in a data analysis."
* UmbralRaptop already replaces TACs with robots!

<e_14159> Today I learned that, while random search is easy to parallelize, it would be great to use a *different* random seed for each run.
<bofh> generally helpful, yeah. :P

<egg> e_14159: but how are you going to check for cosmic-ray-induced bit flips

<e_14159> egg: More randomness!
<e_14159> egg: More good!
<UmbralRaptop> I'd assume that something like MCMC or hill climbing algorithms would "heal" from bitflips?
<egg> we improved the performance of our мcmc algorithm by running it close to jupiter,
<UmbralRaptop> Oh, we just borrowed a Co-60 source.

<UmbralRaptop> Is this mathematician bait? https://twitter.com/eevee/status/1083121606736568321
<kmath> <eevee> i think i have implemented numbers! but it's hard to tell. also division is almost certainly wrong
