So your problem is that Google considers what you consider to be trustworthy sources to be neither relevant nor trustworthy? Have you considered the possibility that what you consider to be trustworthy sources are neither relevant nor trust

I assume you're looking to do an ML PhD, so you probably don't need to learn up on number theory. Mathematics is a huge topic, so you need to condense what you're going to study down to a couple of courses. Also, ML doesn&#x2

It's like you've internalized bad logic or something. Just because X is a subset of Y, where X are bad programmers, and Y are people with degrees, does not come close to implying that X = Y.

Julia is clearly a better choice. No one in the ML world even knew what Swift was before this.

Swift was chosen because Chris Lattner is leading this project (Chris Lattner designed Swift). This explanation is clearly just a token justification for having chosen Swift.

In addition to there being no scientific consensus on narcissism, and it having multiple meanings, another problem with the word is that it has become a reddit/internet meme, where you have random people arbitrarily accusing people of

What you see as authenticity and a good sense of humor, he sees as skilled performance. And I don't really disagree with him there. Maybe it's because you buy into their "authenticity". Or maybe it's because I don&#

Yeah, a lot of people here confusing job offers and recruiter messages.

Yep, I had been using WSL for most of my programming last year too, and I found it to be pretty decent. I switched to my dual boot Linux recently because I couldn't use the GPU via WSL. But if this lets me use the GPU, then I won'

And by wide audience, I mean people who don't program in lisp 100% of the time.
581.
by newen 7y ago
Do you really think some variant of lisp along with the op function is the best way to communicate with a wide audience? For normal people, that code is printing the result of 0.8^i for i=0..9.

The goal in Scrabble is to crush your friends and hear their lamentations as I get double words scores while blocking their potential expansions. It is not this fun thing that people keep talking about.

Amazon literally lists out the leadership qualities they look for and asks people to prepare for them. You prepare for them, tell the story, and they don't bother with follow-up questions most of the time. I find behavioral questions t

A lot of universities are teaching using python now.

Why do they call it webassembly if it doesn't even have goto.

And a lot of times, these are the people writing confidently on the internet about web development. Problem with programming is most of the people in the community are amateurs and they communicate via the internet. And on the internet, no

I used this for a small project where I needed a quick GUI interface and it was great to use. I just made the GUI using FLUID and linked the buttons to my code. And I was able to compile it statically to all 3 OSes without too much trouble.

My point is that cross products are really really really simple and for some reason you have this notion that cross products are something complicated.

Yep Pham Nuwen :). I love The Zones of Thought books. It reallygives you an idea of how very alien intelligences might work.

I have heard too many stories of overworked programmers (lots of stories if you google it), especially in the gaming industry, and let's not forget Amazon's NY Times story a few years back, to think that there is no worker exploit

How would unions reduce your ability to choose between jobs? How are these two things even related?

Cross products are taught in high school. And I'm sure by college, a good amount of people are aware that four dimensional cross products are not possible. And like me, most of them probably thought four and higher dimensional cross pr

Main problem is Watson its like a million different things all with the same name. So no one actually knows what they are selling when they talk to you about Watson. Literally I had one IBM guy ask to check out their Watson and it took 5 mi

Yeah the only difference being signicant newline. Julia does this for example as does Matlab, this isn't exactly new.

Yeah I don't like people who go by names in imageboards either but that might mostly be because of the imageboard culture.

by newen 8y ago
This actually depends on the university, with CS in some colleges in the US splitting off from the Math department and others from EE or CE.

by newen 8y ago
4chan style threads with account names might actually be better. You can have really good discussions in imageboards (in the smaller boards) because you don't have a bunch of non-participants butting in with their upvotes and downvotes

Is that an O(n) implementation of pop? I hope you realize my point.. I looked it up and it's not but the point is that you shouldn't have to worry about these things, including implementation details of trees and hundreds of other

Script kiddies do things that anyone doing research or work in computer security can do if they spend time on it. They are not doing new things. AGI is a completely different beast and has still not been achieved after research done by very
