For what it's worth, the only Lisp enthusiast I know swears by SBCL.

As someone who's followed the space closely for years: No major events, just gradual improvements to the tech, tooling, and adoption surrounding Bitcoin, blockchains, and everything related to them. Not nearly as entertaining as recent

The article details the specific facial features that were focused on by the trained model. So that's at least part of what you're looking for.

"Their method is straightforward. They take ID photos of 1856 Chinese men between the ages of 18 and 55 with no facial hair. Half of these men were criminals. They then used 90 percent of these images to train a convolutional neural ne

I think Dijkstra's gonna get some comeuppance on this one when it comes to audible computing. What are spoken commands if not NLP one liners in a REPL?
