fff_duesseldorf Aus gegebenem Anlass ein Statement unserer Ortsgruppe:
Wer mit Faschisten paktiert, tritt die Demokratie mit Füßen.
Nicht nur im Kampf gegen die Klimakrise ist eine Zusammenarbeit jeder Form mit der AfD inakzeptabel.
Anders ist eine gesamtgesellschaftliche Lösung nicht zu finden

gerryconway And yet Trump's IRS continues to withhold Trump's tax records from Congress despite a law explicitly written to have them produced.

This is how democracy ends. twitter.com/yahoonews/stat…

sintelion @texttheater In the last year, a lot of conversation I had with various colleagues got to the very same conclusion - at a fundamental level, CL/NLP is currently not a science, it's engineering. There are no hypothesis, no predictions and no falsifiability. Just tinkering.

wellformedness Boomers, I am begging you: stop posting about GPT-2, an expensive toy which is in no way an appropriate stand-in for modern NLP as a field.

"a lot of the tasks are also dubious (weird tasks of no real-world utility, or gross over-simplifications of real-world tasks).  But even more fundamentally, I suspect that overfitting test data is rife, and much of what gets published (…) is scientifically worthless."

MartinaRenner Das was gestern passierte, war kein Zufall oder Unfall. Der Pakt aus Konservativen und der extremen Rechten erklärt sich aus dem historischen gemeinsamen Bindeglied - dem Hass auf Linke. Für diesen Hass nimmt man den politischen Sieg der in Kauf. 1/2

KonstantinNotz Es kommt ja selten vor, aber ich habe diesen Tweet von @Markus_Soeder geliked. Und das sehr gerne. Denn die Demokratinnen und Demokraten in unserem Land 🇩🇪 sollten in einem immer vereint sein: im twitter.com/markus_soeder/…

gchrupala For me interpretability is the first step; what we need in the end is to have fine-grained control over the systems we deploy. We do have fine-grained control over airplanes, even though the principles behind lift may not have an immediately intuitive explanation. twitter.com/FelixHill84/st…

charisloke Uhhhh...this is not diversity, this is wrapping the same sweet with different colours and calling it Diverse Editions TM. Some of those 'classic' stories are quite...racist and a new cover isn't changing that. Also, why not just highlight work by POC authors and artists? twitter.com/PublishersWkly…

RolliFraeulein Sie wollen Menschen wie mich einsperren.
Eigentlich wollen sie uns töten.
Und sie werden Menschen töten, sobald sie die Gelegenheit haben. Menschen mit anderen Hautfarben, mit anderen Lebensvorstellungen.
Menschen, die sie für wertlos halten.

Mit denen kooperiert ihr grade.
