Though I suppose it's possible to switch to Computer Modern via the CSS, the equations seems to be included as PNG's. The font of those would not change simply by modifying the CSS.

Can second both Ann Leckie (her new book "The Raven Tower" is also a great page-turner) and N.K. Jemisin (who did totally blow my mind with her Broken Earth Trilogy). Ursula K. Le Guin also appears down below; The Left Hand of Dar

I object to the use of the word "optimal" for a task like object detection; it feels counterproductive to claim that this is the "optimal" way of solving such a broad and complex problem. Great results, but their languag

I was a physicist for a time and I learned physics via numerical simulation: I would find problems I could solve by hand and code them up---solving integrals, derivatives, systems of equations all numerically and comparing the results. Only

I know "Getting Things Done" by David Allen is a book the HN crowd occasionally loves to hate, but I came across it at the right time in my life and was the impetus I needed to reorganize my life and put systems in place to ensure

Hey Noam, this is some great work; I'll need to sit down and give the paper a deeper read. Also, the visualizations on this blog post are incredible. I saw a talk on the Libratus agent a while back, and one of the most interesting take

Easy enough to support this article; RSS is good for the open web and relatively trivial to support: took me maybe an hour for my personal blog, compared to the enormous effort I've put into CSS and formatting for the website proper. I

Do you have a source for "overhead LIDAR flights"? I was under the impression that data was coming almost exclusively from their StreetView cars (with perhaps a few companies that provide helicopter-based data from time to time).

I was a paralegal a number of years back and, due to my experience as a coder, I was able to automate a bunch of my responsibilities. Much of the job of a paralegal (and some of the responsibilities of a lawyer) are things like data entry a

Love the Tufte style. One real limitation, however, is the "mobile view" in which the margin notes collapse into clickable superscript numbers. I don't think it's clear to most readers that one is supposed to click on th
