Thanks for the support arikfr! Being a long time HN user, I am happy to see Todoist recommended. We are in this for the long haul. We don't even go into acquisitions talks (we already turned down a lot of them), and we don't have

As a warmup I strongly suggest following the ASL, where many of the StarCraft legends are still competing (e.g. Flash, Bisu). There's a team event now: http://sc2casts.com/event913-2017-ASL-Team-Battle-S1 The remasteri

I have made a Python interface to access neural-redis, ref: https://github.com/amix/neuralist Should make it much easier to experiment with this stuff if you are using Python.

In the current iteration, this only implements feed forward neural networks -- which are basic and can only resolve basic correlations. For more advanced stuff (like image or video processing) you have to move to recurrent neural networks.

Most dev teams probably run Redis in production and having neural networks as a datatype could be incredibly powerful -- it will make neural networks much more accessible. While this was a 48h personal hackathon (insane!) by Salvatore, I ho

Tried API.ai a few months ago and was very unimpressed with the results (things were slow, expensive and not very powerful. Rebuilding the models was also broken at times). I am unsure why Google are acquiring them, especially given that th

If you pay for a product on a recurring basis you expect improvements and not only support of the status quo.

As a long term Pinboard customer I dislike this "I am doing nothing and I am proud of it" mentality and I will unsubscribe. Pinboard has been the same for years and I feel little attachment to the product. I am unsure what to swit

The major problem of Solidity (Ethereum’s language) is the Turning completeness. This makes it incredibly hard to reason about any property of the contracts (since everything is undecidable due to Rice’s theorem). I don’t know why they didn

The bitcoins that Satoshi Nakamoto own are worth about ~400 million USD. There are also a ton of coins missing from Mt. Gox and Silkroad. Maybe it’s all related somehow? Anyhow, it's clear why the authorities would be interested: poten

I fail to see why embedding bitcoin inside hardware is a smart idea, especially given that most of the world are moving towards mobile devices where battery life and storage are super important. I can see this would make payments more decen

I am an active user of WhatsApp and their service is much more reliable than Skype or Hangouts. There's a reason why 800 million people are using it and it's not only because of network effects, it's because the base product

I think the general market could learn a thing or two from WhatsApp: 55 people powering a platform used by 800 million _active_ users across many different platforms. And WhatsApp has innovated, e.g. the new video and calling system works v

The major problem is that some of the best Europeans leave to US to start or join startup companies (e.g. Stripe). And if you look at the best US companies you will typically see a large amounts of Europeans in them. So Europeans are very c

I think this could be prevented by removing humans from the cockpit and let computers take over. Computers are already controlling most of the things inside an airplane. If this isn't possible, then the flight software should at least

The list of speakers looks fantastic! This said, I think the list lacks diversity. I think it would be great to have someone outside of SV in it (e.g. Jason Fried, Jeff Bezos etc.) One of the better Startup School talks I seen was from DHH

There is a better way to do this by using bitmaps (especially bitmaps in Redis). I recommend looking at https://github.com/Doist/bitmapist
