Turns out banks run on trust and honor too. I personally know people who got loans because of knowing the right person not their credit score.
But even if banks did run on transparency and accountability, which they don’t, governments aren’t banks. You can’t double-entry your way to equal application of the law. Transparency and accountability are good things, but they are bolsters for the honor system.
definitely the latter, it is even referenced in the foreword:
> Its goal is not to be exhaustive, but rather minimalist
and easy to read. For this reason, it follows the format
of The Little Book of Deep Learning [Fleuret 2023]. Its
tone, however, is closer to that of a blog post, as the
book is built around a single narrative thread. Its
structure broadly follows that of Sutton and Barto’s
Reinforcement Learning: An Introduction [Sutton et al.
2018], which remains the canonical reference on the
subject.
