Is embedding interfaces still composition, in your opinion? And if not, does this means you recommend not using composition?

It seems like nd4j has everything you need. Just remember, when seeing calls to the `np.dot()` function in python's numpy that it is the "dot product" operation on matrix, which is also known as standard mathematical matrix m

If I had to chose one, that will be my backup script, without any hesitation. Data is by far the most important thing, nowadays. After that, I would say the script that updates dependencies in all our projects and make merge requests on git

I've been learning about neural networks lately and implemented mines in golang. The biggest problem I had was that python is not chosen randomly: neural networks scientists use it because of numpy. Most importantly, numpy makes it rea

I've been a professional developer for ten years myself, I've seen my part of hype. But I've seen way more people not even trying new things (and trying does not mean sticking with it on your main project), probably because t

Yeah, I tend more and more to be annoyed by some devs negativity every time someone is trying something new. I may take that personally, yes, not about docker and microservices, but because I'm always told to stop creating and use what

This looks cool. I'm using dokku to do that and I'm very satisfied with it, but I would like something closer to core docker experience, which would make it easier to integrate with other tools/process (like swarm, which not

It's quite an investment of time, but this is a good answer to "do we have to do academic studies to learn this stuff?" => Maybe, but nowadays you don't have to quit your job and move close to an university to learn,

Thanks :) I feel like some key concepts are a bit beyond my reach, but that they are such a small quantity that it can be a good starting point for googling around. Thank for your help!

Great read, thanks! I know understand what word vectors are and how they are useful (which, btw, allows me to make way more sense of the output of the program in this HN post :D ), plus more generalities about the field. Anyone in the same

Would love such kind of intro too, especially since I'm working on a product that could greatly benefit from NPL and neural networks. Could a kind person provide a good reference for something we could learn from? Or (as I fear), are w

Oh, no, actually, I love handling everything through milestones, as mentioned in previous comment :) Was just mentioning the idea in case you found it interesting to upgrade milestones to a project management tool. You already took github,

Btw @sytse, would be cool if we could assign issues to several milestones. That way, we could use milestones as "view" for a given set of issues, each being ordered differently. This would allow different teams to have different

I use milestones, for that. I almost never set a "due date". I find the milestone feature useful for doing, well, lot of not milestone related things. First, they have a three columns (unstarted / started / completed) w

Try/catch is only useful if you want to support promise failure, it's perfectly fine not using it if you know there is no acceptable failures (eg, use try/catch for network operations, not for setTimeout).

I don't see any mention about async functions, are they supported? It's the single most important reason why I prefer to go with transpiling from es7 rather than es6. Or maybe it's now part of ES2016? I get quite lost in thos

To me, the problem this incident is pointing out is the toxicity of code review. We speak about changing the name of a local variable used four times in the whole codebase. Was this that a big deal? Merge it already and be done with it. Eas

I don't think you should focus too much on that. Indeed, there is a "frontpage express" part, in it, but the app is still super useful should you remove that. I've been prototyping a lot last year, and it was never strai

I'm very impressed, thanks for this app. Until now, I used Pencil for prototyping on linux, which was not very efficient because it's more focused on desktop app building. Totally love the fact that there's a real browser beh
