Not having a model in stock one month after announcing it is not a huge deal though. Time to delivery of a Chevrolet Bolt in Canada was over 6 months after launch :/

This is only true for refugees, economic migrants usually have a wide range of good jobs to choose from. And unemployment is at its lowest point in year in Canada.

Since this is about computing at the edge, I was wondering if anyone had an opinion on the intel neural compute stick 2? I got one recently and I am not convinced, but I suppose someone on HN might have legitimate use cases.

This article almost feel like an ad. Especially the last line... What did the author do with it?

Source? GloFo stopped pursuing 7nm but that is far from shutting down.

If your end game is working professionally just check what is more in demand in your geographic location. Personal opinion C# is a lot better than Java. You have less boilerplate code (getter and setter in 2018, really?) and lambdas are

I think the author makes a point but also misses (or voluntarily glosses over) important counter points. 1) Machine learning (which includes deep learning) still hasn't been applied to a lot of field that would draw benefits even from

Same here with Star Wars/ASOIAF content. I get it. You figured I like those two things, but it's incredible that it won't pick up that I am (hopefully) not that dull.

A fair point, but I, for one, will give him a chance.

Can you elaborate on why using a requirements.txt file is "manual hell"? I rely on it for pretty much everything and I didn't run into game breaking problems.

Presenting "not using Electron" as a significant way to reduce our impact on the environment has to be the most HN thing I ever read.

Bureaucracy is a very real problem in many fields, but when we are talking about launching potentially untrackable satellite in space, having some form of oversight is probably good.

Can someone provide me a usecase for this when compared to executing jupyter straight into VSCode/Atom with vscodeJupyter/Hydrogen?

To anyone reading this who wants to try DBSCAN, give its more recent brother HDBSCAN a go. The H stands for hierarchical and it's way better when dealing with clusters that aren't very similar (think big vs small). There's an

People have wildly different views on what Github stars are. Some see it as a way to bookmark project you find interesting while other simply stars whenever they feel like the project is impressive. Bottomline is: it's not a good metri

This is a gross overestimate of how far behind AMD is in single core performance. We're talking a few lost frames per second in games not some crazy sun vs oracle stuff.

If anyone want to setup Gitea easily (but not in a docker container) I made a gist a couple days ago that install it and creates a service for easy management on ubuntu 16+ https://gist.github.com/cbdec05bca7907d70b156662dbd

That's the point. No one acquires GitHub so no one can eventually corrupt it with partisan "my stuff is better than your stuff" idiocy. GitHub works because it effectively belongs to "no one" as far as the big playe

The subway forces me to be uncomfortable for 15-25 minutes. I'd much rather be sitting alone in my car if it wasn't so expensive. They simply understood that people won't give up their comfort. Keep in mind that there isn&#x2

While I agree with the sentiment, I also have to point out that some journalists covering tech seem to have little knowledge of the topic. I'd see this as a useful tool for smaller local newspapers.
