I found this to be a great read on what I think the parent is referring to: https://lilianweng.github.io/lil-log/2018/06/24/attention-at...

I agree with this. I think people are looking at the wrong layer for automation. Frontline workers will exist for a long time because of their flexibility and dexterity. I think automation will largely impact one level up - at the superviso

Love seeing so much Patrick Collison content (should I say PC content?) lately. His Tim Ferriss podcast was thought provoking. I think that's what's important - he has new ideas and he's talking about them.

If there were safety advantages with cooperative driving and ultimately efficiencies I bet a public relations campaign could convince people. Or having dedicated lanes for cooperative driving. I would certainly turn this on for interstate d

The industrial base, and the fact that production could continue unabated by bombings on the American continent for years, was a deciding factor in the war. As were the Russians repelling Hitler. My historical perspective on this has shifte

I’m not sure using WWI era factory data is the best way to support the point, but I agree generally. For me, decision making ability is vastly reduced if I’m tired or burned out.

I agree. An international competition over “who can do the best research” is certainly something to welcome.

I think the focus on regional effects is a good one because people relate to them much more easily. Today there is also a great article in the NYT on climate change in Yellowstone. It talks about snowpack, drought, and invasive species of w

Agreed. FAANG has the government over a barrel.

Single player mode ftw. I'm really excited about this app.

File systems suck anyway. They’re useful for programmers and software but pretty awful for people organizing data. My exclusive approach for finding things these days is Spotlight on Mac or google drive search. Drive search is so good that

I really like Viterbi. It has applications all across computer vision and filtering and it takes full advantage of the magic of dynamic programming.

Agreed. There's a lot to like here.

In my experience "do both" on any big decision is a recipe for disaster. Very hard to avoid tho. I've known this and still pushed for it just because choosing one of two hard options is itself so hard.

I have found Rekognition to be quite good. Maybe the most interesting machine learning service result for me from the past year was IBM being much better than Google at speech to text. Specifically they offered some key features, like speak

Beautiful and profound. Not all decades in life are created equal. Don't waste a moment!

I basically only use Dropbox because it is supported on Linux. Also its syncing technology is sooo much better than Google Drive you would think Drive was built by interns. However, they are taking their sweet time with newer features like

I just came here to submit this. Really cool paper! The counting thing has been devilishly hard for neural networks.

Well, this person "missed computer science" and picked up SICP to scratch that itch. Then he did the examples in clojure instead of scheme! It would seem to me that his colleague's signaling was correct. Would your average fr

Exactly. This jumped out immediately to me.

Some of his more famous paintings like Starry Night and Wheatfield with Cypresses aren't here. I guess I'll have to settle for Wheatfield with Crows! The sketches are fantastic tho - you have to scroll quite a ways to get to them

Good for them. I couldn't be happier with the XPS 13 Developer Edition I just bought. Even though I had to wait for a firmware update a few weeks ago for the webcam to work :|. But the best part of that? It was a matter of 'apt-ge

Yep. Subscribe to the “morning paper” too. Nothing like sipping coffee, reading about generative adversarial networks, then going to work and building web apps all day.

No discussion at all of the actual content of what he was saying. In my experience he was right on the money. Problems just keep coming at you and you gotta deal. The only way to truly be successful and be able to look back and relax is to

Are your twenties the “best time of your life” though? It seems to me that you can find happiness and satisfaction at almost any time in your life, if the circumstances are right. I acknowledge that in your twenties you’re more able to stay
