PyTorch 1.0 is just fantastic. A shameless plug: we (fast.ai) are also releasing fastai 1.0 for PyTorch today. fastai makes a lot of stuff in PyTorch easier to use, whilst allowing full customization with PyTorch code. http://www.fast.ai/2018/10/02/fastai-ai/ http://www.fast.ai/2018/10/02/fastai-ai/ edit: just noticed someone has posted the above link to HN and it's on the front page, so I guess follow-ups should go there instead https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18123587 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18123587

  From https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html : "Please don't impute astroturfing or shillage. That degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about it, email us and we'll look at the data." The OP is about the exact platform that the software I linked to uses. The OP even links to the exact announcement that I linked to. It is about the first launch of software that's been under development for 2 years. This seems like an entirely appropriate and relevant HN comment.

Since tensorflow has released eager execution a while ago, did you ever consider switching back to TF for your course (or have a version of it)?

  I think PyTorch is still ahead of Tensorflow for interactive coding. But the next version of Tensorflow (2.0) looks like it could be a lot better, so there's a chance we'll add support for that later. No promises though!...

    Fair enough.
