what? im sorry, if you can afford a tesla you aren't just buying a leaf because you "need one now". a month rental is within the same cost parameters.

but this used car experience is not competing against a new tesla sales model..

by modzu 8y ago
if you're in the market for a new car what makes you think being able to get one immediately is a priority? a car is one of the largest investments an average person will make. i love that i'm not going to be hustled by a car sale

mvps are easy. there are thousands of grads who will build your mvp in a weekend hackathon for free. its the market research/validation that is hard. as the guy with the idea, i'm supposed to do that part and pay 80% to the guy wh

by modzu 8y ago
half the comments here think you're offering to do the mvp, the market research, and find the first customer, all for 2k+80%. when i read it it looks like you're offering to do the mvp but you're buying the idea, market valid

apparently "no Blackbird of any variety has ever flown over the landmass of Russia or China", according to former SR71 pilot Col. RH Graham. so we don't really know if they have the capability, but after they downed the U2 in

thanks for this, explains the context. still, "a growing body of reseach" vs "a nature paper last year"?

"after all" is pretty misleading (edit: clickbaity?) for 2019. adult neurogenesis has been known since 2009.

sure, but there is a tradeoff between performance and fuel efficiency: your sports car crusing along at 3000rpm is sucking fuel to do it. i think being programmed for efficiency is a reasonable default, and sport mode available when you nee

in the past automatics tended to have fewer gears, making them less efficient by default. but modern autos are now more efficient than even a perfect driver of a manual

im not discounting ML being able to do this better. kudos to the op. but for fun i tried it using conventional methods (NR+sharpen); similar results but an order of magnitude faster. you be the judge: https://pasteboard.co/I

well if you don't trust chromium, as a consequence you cannot trust any apps built on electron (slack, github desktop, etc) and you can't trust a single thing on android. that's pretty steep.

by modzu 8y ago
why brave over opera (also based on chromium)? it seems that brave is setting the table for its own advertising once it has enough market share. the roadmap includes "opt-in" ads which will "respect your privacy". so cle

downvoted? i mean, this is not controversial: go on youtube and type developer conference for whatever industry you're in and any money says the presenter in the top hit has stickers. its that prevalent. its not a judgement, its just

actually its extremely prevalent amongst developers -- you will see it at conferences worldwide

yes, we're in a more cross-platform world now than ever before!! you have WSL and git bash, intellij tools are class-leading, etc. that said, if you're not a gamer, why not linux? EDIT: oops, thought this was an ask-hn.

you're already doing the right thing by thinking about best practises. your question is pretty vague though, which is probably what invites so many comments about "experience" being the best teacher. just saying to "lear

and what says that is the best way to compare it? neural networks don't model anything but the electrical synapse. there's much more going on (cf: chemical synapse). also speed isn't the holy grail: too fast in a human brain

im in a similar boat and have definitely felt some resistence so far. not certain but it feels like some cultural mismatch (ie recruiters are looking for younger people without a need of work-life balance yet? or maybe it's the "f

ah yes, it's true we can keep adding on processors and memory until we go beyond what's in the brain (i think currently deep mind has ~ 11 billion neurons to our 100 billion), and indeed so far it's helping, but my point is t

this is wrong. look at the size of an elephant brain. they are smart, but not smarter than humans. similarly, bird brains are tiny, but birds have shown significant intelligence, crows in particular have been well studied.
