I agree... much as the monkeys and birds are left in their shrinking forests, we too will be left behind to dwindle.

I have had the same thought experiments that lead to this inevitable conclusion, that we are the vehicle that will create a new, immortal, more efficient intelligence and there won't really be a place left for us slow, in-evolved, inef

I get better by taking on projects and challenges that I have never done before. It forces me to learn quickly and I encounter more problems, bugs, issues, that I have not encountered before which I learn from, and become a better developer

Totally generous. Don't feel bad for a second. They literally just told you they are not happy because they don't have enough time to not extend you an offer.

It looks like this is based algorithmically on genetic ancestry. I'd like to see a deep learning model trained from facial image and genetic data to build a tool for generating faces from genes. Anyone know if something like this is fe

Give it a year or two and you will see frameworks where the complex mathematics behind ML will be more abstracted away, the model architectures used for various applications will converge on their best uses and any software engineer will be

I think ML obviously has a lot of applications, but I also think things like "Neural Nets" and "self-driving cars" have great marketing. But in general I think software innovations are usually initially limited by hardwa

I think at a certain point everything will be digitized, and the only inefficiency will be humans themselves. Eventually we will be replaced. So "our" innovation will end when we end and the next phase in evolution will continue.

I noticed the same thing. Without physical exercise, my posture gets worse, I have random back pain, and realized I am more prone to injury when I do go and do something active. Currently I exercise every morning for about an hour. 45 min o

I think cryptocurrencies in general have a long future, and seeing as how many exchanges require bitcoin to exchange to other coins, i think the value of bitcoin will climb by default. No reason for everyone to start bailing on it so far. P

Yeah, the unsprung weight, handling issue and reliability due to vibration and road impacts are problems. The amount of space it actually saves isn't that large. The Tesla motors essentially fit along the axels. Seems to me like a dead

Yeah the graphs here are a visual mess. Who decided on displaying the data this way?

There are plenty of people out there with valuable skills that get overlooked. And yes it's unfortunate, but think about it from the recruiters perspective. They try to maximize their ROI on candidates. Filtering by ones with a degree

That's a pretty ugly robot no? Looks like it's built to follow old people around: "Are you sure you don't want me to check your blood pressure?!"

In my experience, it seems like people who don't have much hands on experience are leading the show, and don't realize the value in well designed, clean code in minimizing bugs and and decreasing development and maintenance cost i

Crediting our lack of understanding of the universe to a higher power is like assigning thunder and lightening to Zeus. Now we know better.

I think having seen all of the worst evils in the world committed in the name of some belief, I have dropped concerning myself with anything that isn't scientifically validated. I feel like all organized religions are just some form of

You could have those feelings for any number of reasons so I won't make any assumptions about the cause of your problem, but maybe hearing out some others and finding a cause and solution you might relate to would help. Personally, I f

Personally I found that the times I am most in a long term lull of procrastination, is when I am not getting enough sleep. It's sort of a self fulfilling cycle. I stay up late working, next day I try again, but I am too tired to focus,

I agree. Try out their product as well, create an account or whatever, use it, and see what turns out to be frustrating when you actually use it, and when yours launches, you will have a better product.

Maybe write a shell macro to pull accuracy and error into the commit message along with your comment on the changes. You could also add some automation to automatically branch if your test results are worse than before, so if you hit a dead

I personally feel like psychologically i'm more willing to give $3 a month a try, and end up sticking with it since its only $3 a month, than to commit to $25 right of the bat.

Reddit does something similar. I think most sites of this sort do that. It's just that obviously you want to build a community, web traffic, and reputation, before interspersing advertisements. I think if you are going to build somethi
