I think Python is the biggest hidden gem in statistics. It's had a tremendous impact on machine learning and algorithm development, yet traditional statisticians still rely on SAS/R/Stata/MATLAB. All of these languages h

I understand your point if you're talking about racing games / first person shooters, but for RPGs I think touch screens work really well. I just finished playing Final Fantasy VI on the iPhone, and it was much easier than playing

Wow. I didn't know you could upload a list of your customer's email addresses to Facebook and have it build an audience of similar users. This seems highly unethical -- who knows what FB will do with your customer's email add

Can someone enlighten me about the history of the taxi industry? I have a medical background and I know that HIPAA came to be because insurance companies were taking advantage of patients with known conditions. There were other reasons, of

I was taught Java in college and use it at work, but over the years I've done a little BASIC, Perl, Haskell, Lisp, C and C++. All of these languages were interesting and fulfilled specific use cases, but I couldn't see anything di

"It projected full-year revenues at $3.6 billion to $3.65 billion, versus $3.9 billion expected." Call me naive, but where has that $3.6 billion been going? I realize they just released a new app (which is pretty nice), but that s

I think the article overestimates how much we understand about neural networks, and the novel ways we might use them. Take word2vec for example. It's a two-layer (i.e. not deep) neural network that uses a relatively simple training alg

Interventional radiology (IR). Most people don't know it exists until they need it. IR procedures range from acutely life-saving (strokes, heart attacks, DVTs, etc.) to cancer (burning/freezing tumor lesions). Other procedures hav

This really is a fantastic presentation for newcomers to the field. When I was taking these classes I found it difficult to keep all of the available algorithms organized in my mind. Here's an outline of his presentation: Overview (5 s

These types of procedures are exploding, but there's a lot of turf wars between vascular surgery, cardiac surgery and interventionalists (e.g. interventional radiologists, interventional cardiologists, and interventional neurologists).

The article mentions load performance. Meaning the time it takes to download and setup the Framework. GWT compiles Java to JavaScript and leaves out code that will never run. JavaScript frameworks load functionality in case that functionali

I know GWT isn't the most popular framework (it isn't really a framework, is it?), but I've been a fan of it for a while. It solves three critical problems that have plagued web development: 1. Cross-browser compatibility. 2.

"Weight management is actually much more complex than just ‘energy in’ versus ‘energy out." No, it's not. Maybe it's more difficult to measure calories (that salad ranch dressing has more calories than that hamburger),

I'd rather not bash my undergrad, but suffice to say I tutored intro linear algebra and was very comfortable with eigenvalues, eigenvectors, Gaussian elimination, and that kind of stuff. What was tricky in 224d was taking the gradients

I was fortunate to take this class the first time it was offered. I found it a great introduction to the material, but a bit over my head. Deep learning requires a strong grasp of linear algebra - and particularly at the "Stanford&quot

The original iPhone had a lot going for it, but I think it was the call-the-Starbucks example that really sold it for me. Remember Steve Jobs on stage looking up the GPS walking path to Starbucks, and having the phone number ready with one-

I agree with the content of the article, but there's one key secret that seems next to impossible to find without cheating. To my knowledge the entrance to Kraig is the only place in the game where there's a secret in an elevator

Hey ___Joker, that was my point in writing the article. For the non-technical out there, Apple has restricted 3rd party apps to run on the iPhone not on the watch. I was hoping that hardware access (such as the heart rate monitor) would b

I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that you rename it "The Fix." Then you could type "fixit" or just "fix".
