are you green color blind? why would being green color blind affect how you see red? I see examples of deuteranopia that show that red turns into a weird muddy brown, but why should that be? shouldn't red still be red if you can't see green?

Maybe I do see red normally, then. My green just blurs with red, and I get the two mixed up often.

I remember taking one of those tests and seeing nothing. I showed it to everyone in the house, asked if there was anything there, they all said yes, that it was extremely obvious.

Sahuagin posted...
hmmm...? not sure why your post went away. that did make sense.

colorblindness is like equal parts crappy and fascinating

I thought I knew the answer, looked it up and I was wrong. I thought red/green cones were the same, but I don't think that's true.

It's funny you say you worked with a programmer, I can never tell a warning and an error appart unless I go into the settings and swap the color for something else.

I never had any clue what cyan or torquise really are.

Sahuagin posted...
top right and bottom left are very similar; either they're identical, or the top right is a bit darker. they both seem to have no green and are mostly just yellow or light brown.

That's exactly how I see it with the filter on.

Instead of every single color being offset, every color is how it would appear to a normal person, except the ones I physically cannot see are completely overblown. This is fine, because very few things are overblown.

Like, a rose's red is now so intense on a monitor that the whole thing is almost a solid red. Everything that isn't overblown is normal person vision.

Every single monitor should have this built in. 5% of the population is nothing to blow off. Well, maybe it is

Anyone that wants to see what I'm using, search "color filters" in the start menu, I'm using the deuteranopia setting.

Sweet. Now at least I can see things the way they're supposed to look in my screen.

I think I even suggested this to them through some feedback form a while back.

For people who don't understand how this is supposed to work, imagine having headphones with very little bass, and then putting on an equalizer that boosts the bass.

And holy shit guys... I wasn't even aware that this shade of green was so commonly used. Very weird to see, though I've seen it before.

https://www.google.com/search?q=turquoise

What the fuck...

Your version of roses are much uglier than mine. Mine is a very dark red. People are like... red now. My people look like your corpses. I think I prefer the way people look to me. Yours are just... weird.

My version of starry night is much better than yours. Like, why is there green in the sky now?

I'm amazed by turquoise now though. Normally it looks like dog vomit.

I'd like some kind of fine-tuning tool to get it just right. I don't think it's strong enough, actually. Atm I can turn it on and off, giving me a good sense of before and after.

Edit: Without the filter, all birds but the bottom right look the same to me.

He makes a pretty solid case tbh.

One of the accusers apparently lied about being 18, and he has screencaps, and the other knew the first one that lied before any of this happened, who also has no proof.

I think if he really needs to prove his screencaps are real he can give a third party access to his conversations to confirm he didn't shop them.

If he is guilty, he's lying pretty well at this point.

God training takes such a long time. Too bad we don't have dedicated hardware yet. I figured out how to checkpoint and resume training, so there's that. I've read posts that recommend training for months.

So the datasets I'm using are just the plain OHLC datasets I downloaded. I could make one dataset that contains just the close data for each currency and train on that. That would give the AI the ability to cross analyze data, make connections between them. As it stands my NN seems to be very hit or miss, definitely not accurate enough to even bother running a simulation. This is exactly what I expected.

I've seen another AI dev post his AI stock recommendations on Reddit. It eventually started getting downvotes as his recommendations weren't good, so this isn't really an established science, even to those who know the most about AI.

Also, if it was, it wouldn't be very useful, as not everyone can make money off the stock market. You have to have the edge over other people as you're competing with them, not cooperating. As such, I would probably never release my algorithm, unless it doesn't work, and I wanted to impress some job recruiter. That goes absolutely for an investment that's based on nothing, like cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrencies values are based 100% on investor faith, and therefore are 100% not a cooperative game.

Tl Dr, any effective crypto-prediction algorithm would, interestingly, immediately stop working if it was released to the public. Therefore there is probably no public example of a working algorithm anywhere on the internet. That's good, because I hate using other people's code.

Crypto-currencies being based entirely based off human faith and emotions makes me want to find a dataset that has human emotions over time in it. A possible start to that might be going to the r/Stocks post and downloading every post. It might be worth investigating who has the most influence over Bitcoin (who owns the most Bitcoin), where they get their news from, what influences their decisions.

There is an estimated 17,868,662.5 Bitcoin * $10,000 average value, for a total of $178,686,625,000 of Bitcoin owned by people.

https://www.btcnn.com/who-owns-most-bitcoins/

Chinese Bitcoin mining farms supposedly own 81 percent of all Bitcoin. I should train a model using their news outlets as an input. I need some outside influence information to let my ai do its work.

Who said humans can do it... reliably?

I'm still not convinced on cryptocurrencies beyond speculative fun... at least in Australia where I live, there's still a lot of hurdles to actually being able to use it/realise gains, and that's before you get taxed as a capital asset. I did have some fragments of coins mined and have used it to buy software online (eg Displayfusion) but otherwise I don't put real money into it...

Frankly I don't understand "why" Bitcoin exists either. It's just "there".

It's absolutely not a long term investment though. No one knows what Bitcoin is going to do. If they make money, they got lucky.

After a little tweaking, it works a little better.

BitCoin at January 02, 2018 03:15:00 (am)
Current price: 13452
Predicted price: 13280.0
Actual future price: 13415
Error is 0.049328848597268805

It correctly predicted it would go down. Not as much as it thought, but it did.

Main caveat: it takes 40 minutes to predict the next 15 minutes. (That's why I only have this one example) I can optimize this better, though. I can also transform the data so values between 7000-13000 are much further apart, meaning it might guess more accurately in that range.

I also have a backup plan to have it only analyze price differences, as I only care about their prices relative to each other.

I also know why (certain) other projects have failed at this point. The reason why is incredibly stupid. :P

People use OHLC (open high low close) data. The close value is the same as the next open. People use both the columns in their training data, allowing the NN to "cheat" and just take the value from the day's close as the next "open".

I read a whole article explaining how machine learning couldn't predict the market, and they all had this exact problem, they just chucked the whole OHLC dataset in the algorithm, and concluded that it's an alchemist's task.

Anyone familiar with the market should know a little what I'm trying to say here.
