I'm sorry, what? Are you saying aren't an organ donor because your family would not get paid for it? How would you value the organs? Do you believe having the ability to pay for an organ makes one more morally deserving to live?

I am 80% done with OMSCS and very much agree with this sentiment. Every day I believe less and less that this will have an impact on my career, but I got to work on a whole bunch of interesting stuff and learn things that I probably would n

It seems strange to me that the article and some of these comments are talking about how the scarcity is artificial. Of course the scarcity is artificial! Magic Cards, Pokemon cards, sports trading cards, Supreme merch, yeezy shoes... all o

Leaving aside the moral question of the death penalty, the use of lethal injection seems insane to me. Why don't they just use nitrogen suffocation?

Im doing OMSCS at GaTech and once you graduate you just have a Masters degree from The Georgia Institute of Technology, it says nothing about online or in person or anything. My resume just says Masters Degree, in progress. People asked a

While I would normally agree with you, Google has advertised unlimited, free storage forever for things like photos and email. They should not have made that promise and I understand why they are breaking the promise now, but if you break

I don't have any write ups but off the top of my head I remember issues with data type casting from ddb -> athena via glue. If a ddb number type was an int in one item and a float in a different Item, glue transformed it to a struct

I am a big fan of AWS and am happily running our entire tech stack with their services for a very reasonable price. That said, Glue is an absolute dumpster fire of a product. My team and I have wasted countless hours trying to wrangle a D

I spent quite a bit of time in Nogales, Mexico and ate as many tacos as I could get my hands on. Across the board they were far healthier than anything I can get from a fast food restaurant in the states. The tacos in (Sonora) Mexico gene

I love this project! Have you tried actually completing any of the generated workouts? How do you calculate overfitting for something like this? I know how you would do so with a more traditional supervised learning model with numerical i

great examples of why to use this over "just" a large external hard drive in a case. Thanks for the insight!
