Defamation is not fraud because no one has a legal agreement with the public by default to provide true facts only. If defamation was legal, there would be so many false accusations and fake evidence of the same, that most people would actually learn to think critically and not believe something until it has truly been verified. If a majority of people gain this skill, their critical thinking would be the predominant opinion, and anybody blindly believing things would have to be willfully blind.
It is important to note that nowhere is discrimination against every category prohibited. Nearly all businesses would turn down certain types of customers. Only discrimination against certain protected characteristics, usually (but not always) immutable ones, irrelevant to the business, is prohibited.
In a democracy, the passing of a law prohibiting discrimination against a certain group requires the majority to be against said discrimination. This means that this group won't be discriminated against by most people anyway. Those that do will suffer losses from missed customers. People strongly opposed to the discrimination may even counter-discriminate, boycotting those that do.
In such a situation, it doesn't seem all that necessary to legally prohibit discrimination, especially to libertarians, who believe that no one can be forced to serve another for whatever reason, even "social justice".
Libertarianism simply refers to the notion of a minimal state. However, the term, especially in the US, generally refers to right-libertarianism, which also advocates for strong private property rights and a free market, and is also the meaning with which this FAQ uses it.
An important concept to libertarians is the non-agression principle (NAP), which forbids the non-consensual breach of contract (i.e., fraud), or of property (which includes the body). Aggression is, however, permitted to the extent necessary to defend against the above.
Right-libertarianism has several variants based on how minimal the state is:
  • anarcho-captalism https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sidstuff/libertarianism/master/assets/ancap.webp, or ancap, which seeks to abolish the state, with private enforcement of the NAP
  • minarchy https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sidstuff/libertarianism/master/assets/minarchist.webp, or a night-watchman state, whose only role is to enforce the NAP
  • classical liberalism https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sidstuff/libertarianism/master/assets/classical-lib.webp, the older and more moderate version of libertarianism, which still wants a minimal state, but not to the above extent
This FAQ aims to defend a minarchist model. All uses of 'libertarian(ism)' henceforth will refer to the same.
ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge dataset by Ciro Santilli 35 Updated +Created
Contains 1,281,167 images and exactly 1k categories which is why this dataset is also known as ImageNet1k: datascience.stackexchange.com/questions/47458/what-is-the-difference-between-imagenet-and-imagenet1k-how-to-download-it
www.kaggle.com/competitions/imagenet-object-localization-challenge/overview clarifies a bit further how the categories are inter-related according to WordNet relationships:
The 1000 object categories contain both internal nodes and leaf nodes of ImageNet, but do not overlap with each other.
image-net.org/challenges/LSVRC/2012/browse-synsets.php lists all 1k labels with their WordNet IDs.
n02119789: kit fox, Vulpes macrotis
n02100735: English setter
n02096294: Australian terrier
There is a bug on that page however towards the middle:
n03255030: dumbbell
href="ht:
n02102040: English springer, English springer spaniel
and there is one missing label if we ignore that dummy href= line. A thinkg of beauty!
Also the lines are not sorted by synset, if we do then the first three lines are:
n01440764: tench, Tinca tinca
n01443537: goldfish, Carassius auratus
n01484850: great white shark, white shark, man-eater, man-eating shark, Carcharodon carcharias
gist.github.com/aaronpolhamus/964a4411c0906315deb9f4a3723aac57 has lines of type:
n02119789 1 kit_fox
n02100735 2 English_setter
n02110185 3 Siberian_husky
therefore numbered on the exact same order as image-net.org/challenges/LSVRC/2012/browse-synsets.php
gist.github.com/yrevar/942d3a0ac09ec9e5eb3a lists all 1k labels as a plaintext file with their benchmark IDs.
{0: 'tench, Tinca tinca',
 1: 'goldfish, Carassius auratus',
 2: 'great white shark, white shark, man-eater, man-eating shark, Carcharodon carcharias',
therefore numbered on sorted order of image-net.org/challenges/LSVRC/2012/browse-synsets.php
The official line numbering in-benchmark-data can be seen at LOC_synset_mapping.txt, e.g. www.kaggle.com/competitions/imagenet-object-localization-challenge/data?select=LOC_synset_mapping.txt
n01440764 tench, Tinca tinca
n01443537 goldfish, Carassius auratus
n01484850 great white shark, white shark, man-eater, man-eating shark, Carcharodon carcharias
huggingface.co/datasets/imagenet-1k also has some useful metrics on the split:
  • train: 1,281,167 images, 145.7 GB zipped
  • validation: 50,000 images, 6.67 GB zipped
  • test: 100,000 images, 13.5 GB zipped
Pinned article: ourbigbook/introduction-to-the-ourbigbook-project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!

Intro to OurBigBook

We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    • to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
    • as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
    Figure 5. . You can also edit articles on the Web editor without installing anything locally.
