This is solved well in Wayland, with X11 this is not as straight forward. Wayland comes with some other issues though.

Unfortunately the theory for linear models does not translate easily to deep learning based models, which this demo is based on. The "strength of model fit" becomes much more complicated and is an active field of deep learning res

I think many people commenting on the model making bad predictions are missing the point. The speaker argues that even though models are known to be inaccurate, companies like tinder or insurance companies might still use the model outputs

Having gone from a stock vim to a highly modified vim and back again, here are some plugins that I find really boost my productivity: - neoterm, for opening a REPL in a split buffer and quickly sending chunks of lines to the REPL ( https:&#

From the docstring for total_cmp `bois.sort_by(|a, b| a.weight.total_cmp(&b.weight));` So yes, but you were already able to use `partial_cmp` before.

Many people are rightfully recommending Rust and Go, so I'll weigh in under what circumstances you should learn Julia. If you regularly find yourself solving problems with Matlab, numpy/torch/pandas or R, you'll be delig

This is fine if you're the only person to ever touch this code. But if other people will modify the code you can generally not rely on them following your idea of "good habits"; therefore it's sensible to help them not s

It is "compiled on the fly", including (hardware specific?) optimizations, which can take some time.

I don't disagree with your main point, but what's the point of making a nature preserve in an already uninhabited area? Since it's uninhabited right now the animals are probably doing just fine. Also, power plants (of any kin

Currently, launching one kg of payload into orbit with SpaceX's Falcon 9 costs around 2400$/kg. Even after a 10x reduction, this will not be a economical viable for garbage/battery disposal. Note however that Musk had appare

Coming from Aachen and now living in California, I hope you had a good time! I think Aachen already has a quite "cute city" vibe to it, and there's many nice places to reach within a few hours, like Cologne, Düsseldorf, Bonn,

Sounds like a good idea. The "advertising" can be done in so many other ways on other platforms - I like that you only try to do one thing and do that well.

The Economist has a decently large section on European news (being a UK newspaper) as compared to eg the NYTimes. One could argue that therefore the relative "value" is higher for a European than for a US citizen, and they might t

Julia advertises itself as solving the "two-language problem". This assumes that people first write exploratory code in python or something similar, and then rewrite it in Fortran etc. So in this scenario, Julia takes marketshare

Without knowing much about the field, intuitively this seems reasonable. More potential return on your money generally means taking a higher risk (more volatile stock = more potential returns). The higher risk here means loosing a higher pe

While this criticism is true for non-EU / EFTA citizens, every citizen from an EU country can freely work in Germany (or any other EU country).

Germany has three “tiers” of secondary education, of which only finishing the highest will qualify you for university admission. The rationale is that not everybody benefits from learning latin or higher mathematics, when instead a focus on

I think even highly skilled typists usually don't exceed 130wpm or so, except for competitive typists that are copying texts. Maybe changing your writing style could give better gains?

One caveat that I found: I practiced typing on workman for about a week, and was able to type regular sentences at okay speeds (maybe 30wpm vs 100wpm on qwerty). But then it dawned on me that I would have to relearn all vim, vscode, and win

This seems to get downvoted a lot, and I don't know why. Regardless of whether you think this is a good/useful idea, it's certainly leveraging technology (and scientific knowledge) that has only become available recently.
