Thanks! I knew julia's blogpost on git and her wonderful graphs.

But this was more a rant than a serious question 😉 I do these every now and then, specifically on git, and they always have a triggering event.

What PhD do I need to get and from which institution to fully understand git?

- "I guess you mean a Martini?"
- "If I wanted more than one I would have said so"

"The success rate is defined as the fraction of ... that solved the task (as determined by the authors). A SR greater than 0 suggests that the model possesses the ability to solve the task while a SR closer to 1 indicates that the task is solved reliably irrespective of the random seed."

Ok, now I am really experiencing FOMO. Is this trolling or did I miss something important?

Christian Wolf @chriswolfvision.bsky.social · 6d

I have not checked Scholar Inbox today, what are the effects on my career? Will I survive this? What did I miss?

Extreme Ironing is an extreme sport in which people take ironing boards to remote locations and iron items of clothing.

"the latest dangerous sport that combines the thrills of an extreme outdoor activity with the satisfaction of a well-pressed shirt."

Facebook is dead (I deleted my account a couple of months ago), I only saw jokes and nonsense there in the last years.

Whatsapp status seems to have retaken that functionality, with people actually sharing pictures of leisure activities. Funny that it stays in the same company.
