I think some of this is true for ML interviews as well, e.g., interviewers asking for specific library incantations and the precise mathematical expressions. Most good ML people I know think in terms of the assumptions an algorithm makes, k

"(La)Tex" is believed to expand to "(Lamport)TeX" although I haven't seen an official source for that trivia :-)

Congratulations on the launch! Its a crowded space but I think there is place for a good and accurate tool! Tried the examples - they seem tailored for specific document types. I have two questions around that: (a) is their a "best-eff

I have used a successor [1] of FIGS and my experience was that although the theory is elegant, their benchmarking was incomplete.This is something I would look out for if you are planning to use it on a real-world problem. Again, this is no

Same here - I do a lot of location aware searches. When I left Kagi after trying it out for a while, I wrote a detailed feedback hoping it would be useful to the Kagi team.

I don't know if you have come across this: A Spline Theory of Deep Networks [1]. Has been on my To-Read list forever :( [1] http://proceedings.mlr.press/v80/balestriero18b/balestriero1...

Working on a library that helps benchmark Active Learning (AL) techniques [1]. This is a form of Machine Learning, where you want to learn a supervised predictor but you don't have labels to start with, and labeling comes at a cost tha

I would also recommend "The Mountain in the Sea"! I have mentioned this earlier on hn that I like it because it focuses on complexity of inter-species communication, even when both parties are intelligent. Interesting and somewhat

I use Jekyll[1]. It's quite popular which implies that it's easy to search for answers online or find steps to some specific customization you might need. [1] https://blog.quipu-strands.com/jensens_inequality

I entirely agree. They get compared a lot but to me they seem to solving different problems. Pico if you want something asap, and you are ok with sticking with it's opinionated styles. Tailwind if you want control - now, or if not now

Cool project! I remember I had coded a Reinforcement Learning (RL) assignment long ago back in college with just SQL (I was familiar with Oracle back then, so that's what I had used). The course instructor was amused, more so when he s

This is a great list, thanks! I would add two more: 1. VizHub [1]: for D3 based visualizations. I have not tried it, but I have watched some D3 videos [2] by its creator Curran Kelleher who uses it quite a bit (oh, and a shout out to the gr

Good to know! Yes, trafilatura is great, sure it breaks sometimes, but everything breaks on some website - the real questions are how often and what is the extent of breakage. For general info., the library was published about here [1], whe

As others have mentioned here you might get better results cheaper (this probably wasn't the point of the article, so just fyi) if you preprocess the html first. I personally have had good results with trafilatura[1], which I don'

Interesting to see this paper here! Many years ago when working on a problem of offering online campaigns of some form, I had stumbled onto this paper, and it entirely changed my perspective. Eventually, I built an internal library based on

I hadn't known about this, so thank you! Steven Brunton also has a book that covers dynamical systems (among other things) which is linear algebra adjacent, and the expositions are great [1]. [1] https://www.amazon.com/

John Ousterhout also was leading a project called RAMcloud (I thought was interesting) that the article doesn't mention - [1], [2]. Also, he has a book on s/w design [3] which is short and nice, and is more of a collection of idea

True for me too. The only advantages of digital notes (for me) have been searchability and shareability. One thing I keep occasionally going back to is Notion - for LaTeX support (I tend to use a lot of math. symbols) and now diagramming su

For the reason behind edits, my collaborators and I profusely use the comments system in overleaf. This is not the same as a file diff that you might do with git, but we have got used to it now without any big changes to our larger workflow

Wasn't aware of synchtex - read up on it a bit based on your comment, yes it looks like that might work, thanks! For collaboration, I meant real-time collaboration, where you see your collaborator's cursor or changes while you are

The big hurdle now becomes that all collaborators now need to know emacs;-) But good to know! Although I am curious as to how clicking on TeX leading to scrolling the PDF to the corresponding location in the PDF would work (and vice-versa)

I used to run LaTeX on my 3 machines, switching between them based on compute/portability of the machine, and used a git repo for syncing. So it doesn't give me something novel; but the convenience of overleaf has been amazing. On

Red-black trees use to make me anxious. I think the first time I grasped them was after watching Erik Demaine's lecture on the topic. For anyone interested it is this [1]; its still a very good reference on the topic! [1] https:/
