Validation Vampire

Key traits of a validation vampire:
• Constant need for praise and attention
• Self-focused; conversations center on their needs
• Frequent complaining and victimhood
• Little emotional reciprocity
• Blames others for their problems
• Leaves others feeling drained

How they drain energy:

• People-pleasing as a way to earn validation
• Creating drama or crises to attract attention
• Relying on others for continuous emotional reassurance

Cross-Validation

Cross-Validation (CV) - Model validation technique used to evaluate how good a predictive model will perform in practice. It splits data multiple times in different places so the predictive model doesn't guide exclusively on one piece of data and decreasing the risk of overfitting making the model more reliable.

Is your model giving good results?
Yes, ever since I implemented cross-validation.
