#Misclassification
Tbh I've heard decent arguments that it was not a misclassification from Anthropic but a correct classification from Palantir that the Minab school was attended by the children of multiple Iranian military higher ups...

Each day of this miserable job feels like the last. This job is abusive in multiple ways: not paying overtime, misclassification of employee as independent contractor, giving contradictory directions. And all this coupled with them not paying me at all for all of October! Truly terrible job!

There's no such thing as misclassification. It is correct but contextual classification.

A 1099 or a signed contractor agreement does not, by itself, make someone an independent contractor. The IRS looks at control and how the work actually runs.

"The junta’s documented methods of commodity misdescription and misclassification demonstrate how the aviation fuel supply chain is evolving. The international response must also evolve to counter tactics of sanctions evasion and break the junta’s deadly aviation fuel supply chain."

How should researchers evaluate the performance of LLMs when screening literature for systematic reviews? Traditional evaluation metrics may be misleading in this context, where false negatives can result in losing relevant evidence and the costs of misclassification are asymmetric.

Pay attention FFS. The examples you mentioned are exposed to transmisogyny by virtue of misclassification. If you aren't willing to read what I wrote clearly , don't waste my time. But also , non-transfems who may be targeted by misdirected transmisogyny have outs that transfems rarely do. Moreover

4/ How does a tree decide where to split? The algorithm evaluates different thresholds for every feature, calculating the misclassification rate for each. It then selects the condition that produces the purest distinct groups with the lowest impurity. #mlzoomcamp

Enough is enough. Americans deserve to know the truth❕

Tell Congress: Demand the Pentagon answer for their misclassification of Maj. Davius’ death and the hundreds of casualties missing from the official record❗️

Thank you for demanding an end to the cover-up.
Demand Congress investigate the Iran war “casualty cover-up”
The American people and the world have a right to know the true cost of the Iran war — not just in the taxpayer dollars spent and military resources destroyed, but also the human cost of wounded and d...

🚫Unvetted vaccine claims falsely link vaccines to chronic illness in kids. Experts cite flaws like confounding & misclassification, urging transparency & expert review to protect public trust.
Vaccines, Bias, and the Perils of Non-peer-reviewed Studies: Fueling Misinformation and Vaccine Hesitancy
AbstractUnvetted scientific claims about vaccines can spread rapidly and undermine decades of progress in immunization and public trust. A recent non-peer-reviewed analysis, promoted at political hearings, in the documentary “An Inconvenient Study,” and on social media, has been used to suggest that vaccinated children experience higher rates of chronic illness than unvaccinated peers. Despite standard regression models, critical flaws - uncontrolled confounding, exposure misclassification, unequal follow-up, and outcome multiplicity, invalidate causal inference. An independent group of international experts critically appraises this analysis and contrast its claims with the consistent evidence confirming vaccine safety and effectiveness. We also show how poorly designed studies can distort public discourse, amplify misinformation, and fuel vaccine hesitancy. We outline actions to strengthen research integrity, such as transparent data sharing, labeling of non-peer-reviewed content, and evidence-based communication. Safeguarding public health demands that vaccine evidence be methodologically sound, reviewed, and interpreted by qualified experts.

Olivia? Brad? Mark? Jeff? Anyone in one of Ontario's big cities who wants to get elected?

The Delivery Protection Act identifies misclassification, and how to fix it. The province won't do it, but Mamdani and his council shows, if you want to fix it, you can.
If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon.

Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.

Yeah I was thinking about a possible misclassification based on foreign players where NHL is the highest.
