Just for context: in the early phases of Ganbreeder the genealogy of images was not shown, so one could claim "an honest mistake", but now that you can track back the sources where is the harm in admitting some co-authorship at least?

Can't say that I am a big fan of this type of attention economy art, when "controlling by mind" translates into "appropriating other people's #BigGAN discoveries without giving credit". And accusing people of harassment when called out is not really the appropriate response.

@danishcookies @ben sounds like you have a semiconducting gender. that's great! no further action is required.

@danishcookies @ben Well I mean, you can take a small sample and bring it up to test conditions without lighting up the entire gender...
You could just do a really low-energy ionization test, but then you'll miss anything that's solid or liquid at room temperature.
Raman spectrometry can work too, and can also identify cold molecular compositions that a hot emission spectrum will miss.
If your gender is crystalline when solid, there's always X-ray crystallography.

@ben cubic spline interpolation is popular, but probably not a good idea in this case because gender emission spectra can depend on a lot of unpredictable higher-order effects. even a superposition of delta functions gives you a more useful approximation.

and, of course, keep in mind that gender spectra can vary a lot with degree of excitation, pressure, and temperature. ensure your gender is in a thermal steady-state before taking sensitive measurements.

@ben let's not forget the polynomial approximation, either, that can give you as many vector components as you like and will eventually fit most genders quite well across the visible spectrum if you really crank up the number of terms.

politics and race

@Absolutely_Blakely this also ties in so heavily with the “Irish were slaves” myth. Loads of wealthy Irish people were slave owners, and loads of Irish people who emigrated to America ended up becoming cops and kkk members.
