    Very glad to share this on arXiv today: one weird trick for getting Q-learning to work when the action space is big and complicated. Work led by Tom Van de Wiele, with Andriy Mnih and .

    The only way to avert severe climate change is to move the energy basis of the industrial economy off of fossil fuels within a small number of years. This point needs to be hammered home in the public conversation. There's no "yummy recipe" people can follow at home to fix this.

    There are days I feel I didn't perform up to my potential as a student at , but some days I feel lucky to have gotten through it alive. Any institution this high-pressure and impersonal needs to make sure its participants have necessary supports.

    Tomorrow MPs are debating the Withdrawal Agreement Bill in Parliament. The bill will put Settled Status into primary law. It will also cement the application process into law. Officially breaking the Prime Minister's referendum pledge of automatic status for EU citizens. 1/

    It’s grad application season and I see a lot of “I would never take a student who didn’t contact me!” comments. A reminder that there are a lot of first-gen students out there who might not know that this is a thing and they deserve a shot at discussing their interests w/ you.

  7. First and last thing I will say about the : 👇is spot on. At the beginning of the decade, DL was the fringe. What brought it mainstream wasn't eloquently argued debating points but hard won results which became too compelling to ignore. Talk is cheap.

  8. How many weeks ago was it that we had a law that "prevented" an election being called without a 2/3 parliamentary majority that never materialized?

    Hot take: grad student stipends should be based on the cost of living (rent especially) in the city where the university is. Fun fact: the average rent of a 1 bdr in Toronto is $2300. The student stipend is less.

    The irony of Brexiteers championing trade on WTO terms while their ally Trump effectively shuts down the WTO is almost too much for me.

    I'm prepping for the test. As a person, I find the tone of this question jarring, to say the least. The prescribed answer is TRUE.

    New blog post: Observations on the "war" between the Symbol Slayers and Symbol Savers (aka Connectionists and Symbolists). Promise I won't bore you with details of the "war" but will talk about something more general -- The Doers vs. The Clarion Callers.

    IMHO, technical debt is not discussed enough in the context of scientific methods, especially computational ones. Accumulating complexity over time leads to diminishing returns with super-linear costs. We need to always simplify our scientific pipelines.

  17. "I have talked to senior BBC executives, and they tell me they personally think it’s wrong to expose lies told by a British prime minister because it undermines trust in British politics." If true, it explains a lot about BBC's editorial philosophy.

  18. One great thing about elections in the UK: you are allowed to register to vote by post without needing to give any particular reason. More countries should do this.

    I see this question every year when I submit recommendation letters for students hoping to go into graduate programs. It is wholly inappropriate and unethical, and all graduate schools should get rid of it.
