Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Z Fold6, expected to be announced in late July alongside the Flip6, could sport the biggest design changes in years. According to prolific (and often right) tipster Ice Universe, the Fold6 will have a wider cover screen than any of its predecessors. Not as wide as the Pixel Fold's, mind you, but still wider than the very narrow ones fitted to the series so far. From now on, my Galaxy Z Fold6 leak is absolutely accurate, not based on patent drawings and other sources.First of all: the design of…

A quick look at everyone’s favorite loss functionImage created by the author.As a recovering statistician, I’ll be the first to tell you that my people are a painfully literal-minded bunch. Where AI folk favor more sci-fi-flavored names, stats folk love things to do exactly what it says on the tin… and nowhere is this attitude more in-your-face than popular metrics MSE and RMSE.These names are — wait for it — literally the recipe for calculating them, backwards. Like summoning a very tame tiny demon.How to calculate mean…

https://madcavestudios.com/Whether it’s through wrestling noir in Hell is a Squared Circle or crime horror in That Texas Blood, Chris Condon is showing the comics world he’s unafraid to break all the rules to get at a different kind of darkness. Chris Condon at his NYCC Artist Alley booth In his wrestling book, which was illustrated by Francesco Biagini, a down on his luck wrestler called Mooska goes down the traditional noir route of death, doom, and gloom to tell a story about mistakes and misguided runs at…

Fatally flawed characters, most especially the protagonist. Check. Dirty deeds acted out covertly and compelled by the darkest human emotions. Check. Plenty of violence, including an industry based on choreographed gladiatorial events. Check. An ending with nothing gained after much ventured, and a grappler sprawled on a canvas apron littered with broken dreams. Check. The wrestler as a soul damned by his own anger issues, his own ego, and navigating his own downward spiral of vicious cycles. Check. The solicits asked if…

Panasonic and Leica have formed a new collaboration called L² (L squared) that will see them jointly develop cameras, lenses and imaging technology, they announced. Both companies are already part of the L-Mount mirrorless alliance (along with Sigma and Leitz) and Panasonic has loaned its camera tech to Leica. However, the new partnership goes deeper, as they'll use "jointly developed technologies" in their respective lens and camera products, while the L² branding will feature in future marketing activities.  "Through…

Have you ever wondered why we minimize the squared error? In this post, I’ll show the mathematical reasons behind the most famous loss function.One of the first topics that one encounters when learning machine learning is linear regression. It’s usually presented as one of the simplest algorithms for regression. In my case, when I studied linear regression — back in the days during my physics degree — I was told that linear regression tries to find the line that minimizes the sum of squared distances to the data.…
