Agreed, people seem to be downvoting because they hope he/she's wrong rather than to post a reply explaining their reasoning. I see nothing wrong with the root comment and just upvoted it to give it more attention.

Hey, I made this [1]. Based on a neural net trained with generated character sets with intentional distortions and/or several font variations. I would not recommend it for use in production, but maybe you're interested in looking

Thank you for posting this. I am baffled at how some people just ignore reality and post (and believe in?) lies, even here on HN where most of us work with data. It's amazing that fact checking and critical thinking is so low in this i

What's your point? If you're posting a graph as confusing as this one (4 completely different x scales) at least tell us your interpretation.

Delightful, cringe-entailing humour; this definitely made my day.

Yes, I have no idea where they got the "high price" thing from. Here in Sweden you get paid to study at the university (~$350/month for 9 months if studying full time). On top of that you can choose to take a highly beneficia

In addition to this, Wikipedia in Swedish is great and has 1m+ articles in a language spoken by <10m inhabitants.

What the what? Your generalizations are way out of line. You can argue about or criticize the ruling but don't use it out of context to push your own agenda.

I haven't tested but I think you can convert ndarray to Uint8ClampedArray by doing new Uint8ClampedArray(ndarray.data);

Yep, and most interactions are non-deterministic. I think we can safely say it won't happen in our lifetime. On the bright side, we have a lot to learn and learning is life :)

SO feels more like a race to answer fast rather than to answer with quality. I think the best way to learn about the language is through the Mozilla Developer Network. I can't speak for everyone but I feel incredibly productive when pr

I've been thinking somewhere along the same lines, but eliminating bias is incredibly hard to do, even with machine learning. Hopefully we'll see some experimentation in this area here on HN.

I'm merely suggesting that people should diversify their media intake to (try to) eliminate bias. Most newspapers do have a political agenda. In Sweden newspapers often state their political affiliation, which I think is great. Looking

Every newspaper is inherently political or "one-sided". Look it up.

That is a pretty bold statement. Combine typed arrays with BLAS and you have yourself a numpy (well, kind of). In Node you can move performance-critical code to C++, which does have integers. Browser support of typed arrays is a bit disappo

Here you go: http://arxiv.org No javascript needed to make a perfectly functional, efficient and useful website. Maybe it doesn't fit into your description of a "real" website?
