Talk:Compass navigation system

message: Why is the name of COMPASS typed all in capital letters?  Is it an acronym?Zebulin (talk) 06:47, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  all caps? 

message: Hi, I have written a new version of the page with some more details. I have some formatting difficulties:
(i) I don't know how to make a caption to the figure appear: when I set it to "thumb" it becomes small; ideally I want it to have a large size but have a caption and possibly a frame; please help.
(ii) I don't know how to center the table

thread_title:  New version of the page 

message: Basically yes, I agree.
There is no stable convention yet on the naming of COMPASS, but in my view "Compass" is better because this is not an acronym. Indeed, we write GPS and GLONASS in capitals because they are acronyms; Galileo is not an acronym, so it is most of the time written as "Galileo". Compass is probably the same. Please feel free to change (taking care of the refs to this page).

Talk:Rademacher complexity

message: I have noticed that somebody has removed expectation from the definition of empirical Rademacher complexity. There should be, of course, expectation over the Rademacher variables. My guess is that some probabilist did not like the notation with two expectations and he was right. To be correct, we should write there conditional expectation (conditioning on the sample). -- David Pal  —Preceding unsigned comment added by David Pal (talk • contribs) 16:01, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Someone should adapt the definition to also account for the expectation of the points themselves, but I lack the experience to do it myself. Plus, this could benefit from a second pair of eyes. I just stumbled upon this and thought it might be of benefit to mention.
Essentially, the definitions given are for given, fixed set of points, and are a good didactic tool to lead to the full Rademacher, which should be defined as taking the expectation of these definitions over all points of given size, under the probability of a set of points over the space they live. Something like:
R(\mathcal F;n) \coloneqq \Exp_{\substack{\sigma\sim \operatorname{Rad}\\\{z_1,\ldots,z_m\}\sim \mathbb P}} \sup_{f\in\mathcal F}\sum_{i=1}^m \sigma_if(z_i)

Talk:Heronswood (botanical garden)

message: I need to check into the history of Heronswood but I don't think it's accurate to call it a "botanical garden".  Heronswood was (and is) a commercial nursery, which was purchased by Burpee and ultimately closed at its original location.  The only entity that now exists as "Heronswood" is the nursery owned by Burpee which is now located in Pennsylvania.  I assume that Burpee owns all rights to the name "Heronswood" and even if the original location does become a botanical garden, suspect that it will not bear that name.

Talk:L.H.O.O.Q.

message: Translation was Wrong. "cul" in french equal "ass". not for vulgarity, an expression for "politiquement incorrect" in french. I don't know how I can translate this in english.
The current translation ("She has a hot ass") is wrong.
A literal translation would be "She is hot in the ass" (hot in the sense of temperature, not physical) which in English is different.
A correct (non literal) translation would be (as is correctly stated in the article) "She is horny" / "She's a horny [girl]" (or "She has fire in her ass", a closer English equivalent to the original while retaining some meaning).
:Right. Any native French speaker, as I am, would say that "avoir chaud au cul", for a girl, means that she is a nymphomaniac (this vulgar expression suggests that she is unable to put her ass at rest). I don't know English slang well enough to estimate accurately how close enough "nymphomaniac" is to the few translations given here or in the article but if "she has a hot ass" simply means "she as an exciting ass", then this translation is wrong. "Elle a chaud au cul" has nothing to do with her body, but with her behaviour. — Xavier, 22:34, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
