Here's one possibility. Creating a quoteback could: 1. tell archive.org to create a snapshot of the page 2. store a link both to the human-friendly version of the page and the archive snapshot 3. then the reader's browser (rather

This is fantastic -- I will certainly turn to this instead of awk/sed in many instances. I expect I'll use this in place of particularly tricky greps too. Really nice that you can seamless interleave standard bash commands with py

This is fantastic :D! Thanks for building this. As a feature request, I would love to be able to restrict my time spent on websites I arrive at _from_ e.g. HackerNews, not just _on_ HackerNews itself.

Yes, you can do this with OBS. The virtual webcam feature can be added as a plugin. And chroma-keying is a built-in feature. I use a Mac, and I've been toying with this a bit over the last weeks (e.g. https://davidbieber.com

Cool ideas. I’m definitely interested in adding browser history into the mix. Transaction data, I already collect automatically (and semimanually label because the existing auto labeling is insufficient) and find quite valuable.

I haven't used rust, so can you explain this to me: If I do the rust equivalent of: def add1(x): return x + 1 x = 1 y = add1(x) z = add1(x) then will x have been deallocated by the first call to add1 and

Each data point is a bunch of features x_1, x_2, ..., x_n. You can make new features for your data points using whatever functions you like -- it doesn't matter if they're linear. Let's say we add two new features x_{n+1} = f

I hope they're collecting data on how long it takes someone to answer, not just whether people answer correctly or incorrectly.

Author of Fire here. Was super happy to pass the 10000 star mark on GitHub today thanks to this HN post :) -- that boosted my spirits on an otherwise long and rainy (and now delayed) bus ride. Hope you find Fire useful! What's next for

^I get that error with just `tangent.grad(np.sin)`. So, it's not a nested differentiation problem, so much as a problem with "ufuncs". If you wrap np.sin in your own function then it takes the gradient just fine. def sin(x):

An excellent question. Certainly switching from argparse to Fire will usually only save you some small amount of code. But if your code is changing, that's when you'll start to see larger time savings. With Fire, your CLI will sta

I think the rules are implemented incorrectly. Multiple times I've seen a move get made that seems to violate the rules. As an example, I just saw team Twitter place a piece in the center square of the top left board (the center board
