When defining neural networks, even in a framework as concise as Keras, you often find yourself writing far too much gumpf.

In my last post I detailed why an article for the Daily Mail was knowingly misleading in a number of ways. I mentioned a “few other idiots” and then said I couldn’t be bothered to deal with one of them. This is that one. Anyabike made a medium post which is now doing the rounds [1] – including an endorsement from Andrew Neil, who really should know better. It’s clearly wrong on some counts but I’ve seen it twice today so I’m following it up. I suggest you read it before continuing.

Addendum: In another piece, I’ve definitively shown that the monument I talk about in this piece is next to the graves, contradicting the Daily Mail statement that it is in “another part of the complex”.

The Daily Mail recently published yet another attack on Corbyn [1], accusing him of memorialising “Munich terrorists”. They say that, in response to this accusation, he “insisted” that he was there to commemorate the 1985 bombing of the PLO base in Tunis [2], but then show him pictured in front of the graves of those same “Munich terrorists”.

While working on this blog, I wanted to add Slack-style named emoji.

:poop‌:.

Eventually, I realised Pandoc already has Slack emoji support 🎉, but only after I’d already made my own 🤦‍♀️. Then I found out Pandoc doesn’t seem to have :‌woman-facepalming:, so it’s a damn good thing I did 😳.

You’re using ad-hominem wrong, and it’s making you look silly.
