I'm telling you right now, man - keep talking like this to people and you're going to make zero friends. However good your intentions are, you come across as both condescending and overconfident.

And, for what it's worth - your position is clear, your evidence less-so. Deep learning is filled with mystery and if you don't realize that's what people are talking about when they say "we don't understand deep learning" - you're being deliberately obtuse.

edit to cindy (who was downvoted so much they can't be replied to): Thanks, wasn't aware. FWIW, I appreciate the info but I'll probably go on misusing grammar in that fashion til I die, ha. In fact, I've probably already made some mistake you wouldn't be fond of _in this edit_.

In any case thanks for the facts. I perused your comment history a tad and will just say that hacker news is (so, so disappointingly) against women in so many ways. It really might be best to find a nicer community (and I hope that doesn't come across as me asking you to leave!) ============================================================

And I'm telling you right now, man - when you fire off an ad hominem attack such as:

  I think the real issue here is understanding _you_.

Don't expect the responder to engage in serious topical discussion with you, even if the response is formulated respectfully.

What I meant to say is that you were deliberately speaking cryptically and with a tone of confident superiority. I wasn't trying to imply you were stupid (w.r.t. "Ad Hominem").

Seems clear to me neither of us odd going to change the others mind though at this point. Take care.
