Equivalent text and graph representation is the killer feature. I previously looked at stuff like https://flowhub.io/ide/ which is a dataflow language spec and editor. Specifically the js version https://nof

I thought they switched to RSUs? Are you sure that new grad didn't get a mix of RSUs and options?

There was another submission recently that kind of does what you described. Click on the visualizations to see the iterations: https://dmitryulyanov.github.io/deep_image_prior . The ELI5 is that prior knowledge of what image

People should look at existing emscripten projects to see what the future will be like since compiling to asm.js is already pretty mature (just a bit slow and bloated as noted in the article). Any emscripten project can compile to WASM triv

The Generalized mean[1] linked to in the blog comments was similarly insightful. It unifies the inequalities: max > root mean square > arithmetic mean > geometric mean > harmonic mean > min that I remember from highschool mat

Noticed when I saw that the tutorial pages have live demos you can edit and run. Seems to have landed in the last month: Commit: https://github.com/opencv/opencv/pull/9466 Changelog: https://github

I think the bellman equation (which is used extensively in reinforcement learning) is also taught in stochastic calculus for finance (except in the continuous form?). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamilton%E2%80%93Jacob

I have fond childhood memories of the 2003 blackout in NYC[1]. Few cars were driving around because traffic lights were off and intersections became all-way stops. It was around ~90 degrees so food was going to spoil very quickly unrefriger

Same with ucisysarch's demos. All opencv.js does is add JS bindings to compiled C++ code. They could've made it output webasm just by adding a "-s WASM=1" to the g++/em++ flags.

I wonder why they didn't contribute directly to https://github.com/ucisysarch/opencvjs . It was suffering from a bit of code rot so a lot of the demos no longer work. But the ones that do are still pretty comprehen

This is a perfect example of what NOT to do. They reimplemented a seeded linear congruential generator for their random number generator: https://github.com/dylang/shortid/blob/master/lib/random&#x

I remember learning (years ago in university) that hard drive failures follow a bathtub curve: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathtub_curve In other words it either fails early or it will last for a while. Can you plot

I predict one day we will look back and be horrified that there was ever a time where you can't just roll back an entire system to an arbitrary timestamp to undo accidental changes. In some sense this is already achievable if you just

I think "coaching" just means "curriculum learning" (which is basically as you've described). But in the future coaching might indeed just be a human expert talking in natural language to teach it how to be better!

Neal Stephenson is working at Magic Leap (an augmented reality company) now. I think it actually makes a lot of sense. If a product manager's main job is to define product vision, this guy has a 25 year head start thinking about it!

Rather than looking at the math ability distribution as a proxy, why not look at coding competition ability? They are pretty objective since an autograder doesn't know your gender and they are predictive of whether you can pass a tech
