I think types can be both frustrating and life-saving. However, the "danger" for me lies primarily in implicit conversion. That is, Python vs Lua/JS/R. When writing large programs, some things happen implicitly and lint

Well thing is you ARE indirectly managing server resources. For example, you have to deal with "autoscaling" or else it can run out of control. Why not say "fully-managed" or "serverside fully-managed"? In ser

It happens in some cases when the focus is on the field. Here's one condition: There are sometimes textboxes that are dynamically set to read only depending on certain criteria. If it is set to read only at some point and you aren&#x27

Alt + left arrow is way more obvious than backspace. There have been countless times I pressed backspace inside a textbox and it went back to the previous page, losing all the written text.

I think SoundCloud is better if you are not planning on buying anything and want to listen to covers of songs you like. Also SoundCloud front end is easily the best front end of any site I've seen before or since.

Pay in sports in USA is primarily market driven. It has nothing to do with how good someone is objectively, because I can make up a sport that I would be best at in the world and I wouldn't get paid anything for playing it. People thr

Let's say there are only 2 users using it. Then a lot of bandwidth would go unused if each user has a hard cap. Ideally, there would be a dynamic limit based on network utilization and type of content consumed.

Degrading video quality is not a bad idea if you have limited bandwidth. This would help in cases such as airplane flights. One person watching HD cat videos is going to consume more bandwidth than 20 people doing work. Now, assuming bandw

Why not just use Xeon 2697-v2 for the same price as the phi? It's 12 core so performance in all-core situation would be about the same as this one. But on non-parallelized code it would be ~5x faster..

For some people happiness only comes from competition. Having said that, competition at work is not great because it leads to worst possible result for workers and best possible result for employers.

Binary blobs provided by Nvidia are extremely unreliable. I've had to ssh to a machine because the graphics don't work at all after some kernel upgrades. Linking to Theano-CUDA is always a nightmare. Forget about optimus. That has

I don't understand why they're doing this on the Yelp/IMDB datasets. Here's the paper they're citing that is doing the same thing with gated neural nets: http://www.emnlp2015.org/proceedings/EMN

Windows MSE can be way more resource hungry than many AVs while providing a worse protection. Symantec might actually be worse than MSE depending on your data etc. Avira is the best free one right now IMO. No spam you can't opt out of
