Python is plenty fast where it matters. You have heavily optimized numerical and scientific libraries (numpy and scipy) and can easily escape in C if it matters that much to you. But in my experience bad performance is usually a result of

Been there. Believe me: stick to Python scripts! Always. And when you finally land that first customer and you have trouble scaling, first scale vertically (buy better machine) and work days and nights to build a scalable solution. But no

Given how many people had similar experiences, I wonder why they don't fix the products before they sell them? I mean, it's nice that they replace the faulty products, but do I really need to contact them at all? I guess making re

Thanks, didn't know that! Nice.

Another path: start doing Kaggle. Pick whatever competition looks interesting to you and just join in. In worst case you will learn a lot, and there will be people working on the same problems as you will. EDIT: but some initial level of kn

I don't really buy this argument. Most of he stuff I own is sitting idle 95% of the time (except for computer I guess ;) and it is similar with other people I know. The outcome will depend on many factors, including cost of the car, th

Not OP, but my guess would be he meant GTX 1080, Titan & co. I would bet the difference in price in comparison to GTX 1050 doesn't come from increased manufacturing costs.

One major issue for me is copying with mouse select + middle click, which is unfortunately not solved in this release. Ah well. :-/

Wasn't it? I didn't use them, but their shutdown notice [0] reads like they opensourced whatever is needed to keep client apps running. I agree it sucks though. The code gives you more time, but since it's not maintained and

I have no idea about the extent of gp's knowledge on subject, but I came to the comments section with similar feeling. I literally had no idea what this site is about, what it does, how I can use it... Even now that some comments have

Ok, but Parse was opensourced, so you could basically just run your app on that, or am I missing something? If you wanted to use cloud offering, I'm sure you could pay someone to take care of it for you. Are you worried about future de

I am sorry your supervisor was a jerk, your project sounds cool! And even if it weren't cool, it was his job to make sure you stay motivated and keep learning. He clearly failed catastrophically. With latest developments in ML/AI

Sure, maybe, but there are very few of your kind left. ;)

It seems to me this is just an advanced (and probably very efficient) quasi-captcha. Except it distinguishes those with a real need for his attention (that is, those who are willing and able to pay) from the others, instead of separating hu

Love the demo, good work! However my cars got stuck in a fairly "stupid" way, both in the same place, when I tried to break their usual path. Maybe too low exploration / exploitation ratio? About the series: there are quite a

Incredible. Are they really trying to pin it on Google? Yes, clearing cache would probably remove some part of the information from public sources. But you can never clear all cache world-wide. Nor can you rely that the part that was remove

Interesting - so I guess there is need for a solution which charges UPS-es in some smarter way?

I agree 100%. I'm not sure what AMD is thinking, but without support from major ML tools there is no chance of competing against NVidia in this space - and this space will grow larger and larger.

Sure, but that depends on location. $50/h is a really good price for many countries. Obviously, USA is not one of them. ;)

Fortunately this is not much of an issue because IE is on its well deserved way of dinosaurs and Dodo the bird (my sympathies to those who can't get rid of it because of some dated corporate standards) and Edge doesn't seem to hav

And it was even worse in the days when there was no Firebug and similar tools... I will miss you Firebug (just today I noticed console no longer works in FF 51.0.1, so I guess it's time to switch).

+1 (I find it useful too). I actually started writing my own implementation of something similar (named "PersistendDict" - feel free to steal the name ;) ) but never finished it so I will definitely check out your library. Thanks!

The article seems very anti-socialist: > ... making life tolerable—if not always easy—in the midst of a socialist hell. I have no idea how it is in Venezuela, but as a citizen of former socialist / now capitalist republic I take suc

When disk space is limited and you are working with large files, you need to clean up after yourself. And human make mistakes. I am not sure if this still does anything in newer rm, but it used to be a common mistake: $ rm -rf /

Which makes sense. First of all, cargo can't know that nothing will use your package. And second of all, it is possible that this will change once someone sees how great package you've built. OTOH it costs you nothing to put a num
