I think it's a great way to bill enterprise customers for a ton of compute. The intersection of people who can't train a machine learning model but can properly use and evaluate one is really small. Doing a brute force architectur

I was one of the first few employees at Clarifai so I can add to this. When Matt and Adam started the company there was no Tensorflow and outside of Hinton/Bengio/LeCun triangle nobody was doing deep learning yet. Matt just beat G

Yeah I got stuck on the crazy lines back from Dumbo a few times before and will never do that again, taking a citi bike is a great alternative. The subsidies are bad but it's a net positive for the city and I'm sure a fare hike wo

Yeah I use it all the time to get to midtown, dubmo and wall street from greenpoint. It's really convenient and much more pleasant than the train. It's also great for tourists. I take everyone who visits me from out of new york on

Yeah, it's mostly an attempt to add reliable transit by the astoria waterfront and the brooklyn navy yards, which would be amazing for property values in those areas.

I agree, I don't think there's a chance of that actually happening. There were some rumors that Andrew Yang might run for governor in NYC, would actually be interesting to see him run for Cuomo's seat. A competent governor wo

Yeah I agree, it's a vanity project for De Blasio and the real estate developers who have new developments along the proposed route. I live in Greenpoint and have no need for this, the G and the ferry are good enough to get me to any o

Ideally we'd get rid of the presidency and vote for people at the cabinet level instead.

In this case the guy bribing people is also a regular at the only two pubs in town and getting kicked out of one of them would tank his venture because it's a source of a large portion of his audience. Bloomberg getting kicked off of t

Solution: As a pub you have users sign a terms of service before letting them in, stating that you don't allow this type of behavior and reserve the right to ban the advertiser and the messenger from entering the establishment. Then yo

YouTube premium has no ads, which comes with a paid YouTube music plan.

I've always used one on my desktop so was actually surprised to see those ads when I did the search on my phone. Those were the first political ads that I've seen because I don't watch TV and don't use social networks.

It's crazy to me that we allow politicians to run targeted ad campaigns. I randomly looked up Andrew Yang on good a few days ago on my phone and had ads from two billionaires take up my whole screen. https://imgur.com/a

Iowa wasn't the only state that planned on using this app. The DNC should have a process in place to validate whatever system is used to elect their candidate.

Yeah I didn't mean to blame them either. It falls on the DNC and the management at this company.

Based on the linkedin profiles of people who work at the company that made this app it doesn't look like there was a single senior engineer involved. EDIT: the CTO actually has a lot of experience, I didn't see her first two posit

Rigging is not the right term for what's happening but you have to admit that if Pete or Bernie end up winning Iowa and Biden ends up 4th, delaying the results will dampen the impact of the outcome. Nate Silver just pushed an article a

But it's really more like starting your own fast food franchise while working on a business team at Pizza Hut. It's an IP issue and could be a conflict of interest.

Ingredient line parsing is a really small market and something that sounds like a fun project to work on but is probably not a business venture that has room to grow. The number of companies that have enough recipes to justify automation, p
