This is what I'd expect from those degenerates who don't use a top sheet and sleep directly under a duvet that's been marinated in their own bodily juices

i mean a flat sheet, under the duvet, for when the duvet is too hot or you only want part of your body covered. i just spent a couple of weeks tooling around germany, austria, hungary, slovakia, and the czech republic and i think maybe one of my seven hotels had a sheet on the bed. to make it worse, there's no AC in a lot of hotels and their idea of a suitable room temp is pretty stifling by american standards (maybe 80f/27c). i know americans are pretty much used to living in refrigerators by european standards but still i was having a hard time even getting cool enough to sleep in a lot of these places and i live in the loving tropics.

oh ya i usually have an empty duvet cover or sheet handy on the hot summer nights. i run hot & definitely cannot sleep if theres no way to cool down

see i do need a minimum of coverage though: my lower back and entire neck have to be covered otherwise i get shameful childhood nightmares about vampires or aliens.

yeah same

idk if they keep it cooler in the hotels in the summer than when i was there; it was clearly unseasonably warm and i don't think they were prepared for it. damned uncomfortable tho

pro tip: put your bed next to your radiator. seems counterintuitive, but putting your hand on a shut off radiator in the summer is the best way to channel heat away from your body

they probably didnt do poo poo about temperature at whatever hotels. at least they dont in my experience.

it is, but there wasn't

living in oz i had no heat or air con and it got below freezing in the winter and over 40C in the summer. i lived with that, albeit somewhat uncomfortably. the main thing for me is that it can be hot af during the day and i'll just suffer through it, but if poo poo doesn't cool down at night i am miserable

when it gets hot in denmark, it stays hot at night too.. sure maybe some 5-10°C difference, but not nearly enough to remove the built up heat.

thats why i swear on built-in metalworks; they p much suck the heat outta my soft gross warm body

here in okinawa during the summer it basically oscillates between "hot and raining" and "hot and about to rain"

currently 90F with 66% humidity and this is one of the less suffocating days this week

dual zone smart duvet is pretty lol. the real solution for two people liking different temperatures while sleeping is simply to have two comforters/duvets. if you have a king size bed it is the same as two xl-twin pushed together so two xl-twin sized ones for perfectly.

lifehack: you can likewise make a king sized bed with different firmnesses by simply shoving together two xl-twin mattresses of equal height. this will save you from being subjected to the utter garbage adjustable air mattresses like the sleepnumber. just avoid having hard sex on the crack.

quote:

We introduce the Deep Symbolic Network (DSN) model, which aims at becoming the white-box version of Deep Neural Networks (DNN). The DSN model provides a simple, universal yet powerful structure, similar to DNN, to represent any knowledge of the world, which is transparent to humans. The conjecture behind the DSN model is that any type of real world objects sharing enough common features are mapped into human brains as a symbol. Those symbols are connected by links, representing the composition, correlation, causality, or other relationships between them, forming a deep, hierarchical symbolic network structure. Powered by such a structure, the DSN model is expected to learn like humans, because of its unique characteristics. First, it is universal, using the same structure to store any knowledge. Second, it can learn symbols from the world and construct the deep symbolic networks automatically, by utilizing the fact that real world objects have been naturally separated by singularities. Third, it is symbolic, with the capacity of performing causal deduction and generalization. Fourth, the symbols and the links between them are transparent to us, and thus we will know what it has learned or not - which is the key for the security of an AI system. Fifth, its transparency enables it to learn with relatively small data. Sixth, its knowledge can be accumulated. Last but not least, it is more friendly to unsupervised learning than DNN. We present the details of the model, the algorithm powering its automatic learning ability, and describe its usefulness in different use cases. The purpose of this paper is to generate broad interest to develop it within an open source project centered on the Deep Symbolic Network (DSN) model towards the development of general AI.
