As someone still nowhere near an expert in deep learning, a little more description of the examples would be great for helping me dive into this. What do the input/outputs look like and which configurations apply best to what situation

I think I squealed with delight when I read this title. This is really a great addition, and will simplify so much of my code once I'm able to upgrade. I try not to think too deeply about all the DB internals (some people are much smar

Referrals referrals referrals. They are the primary way to drum up new (good) clients. People will be hesitant to recommend or be jerks to you when they know the other people you work with. As compared to cold-calling or freelance sites, wh

It could easily use the API to parse comments for +1 / thumbsup emoji / etc too. Also could have a lil viral component, when you +1 on the app, it adds a comment with a link to the app.

Perfect timing. I'm bootstrapping my own startup ( http://moonlighter.io ) at the moment and had a couple questions about the MVP. 1) How can you quickly validate a business with very little immediately visible value to the u

Interesting I didn't know Flash could export to GIF, thanks! I have some experience with Flash from many moons ago so that might be a viable option. I wish I could just pay and download though, I really don't want a subscription..

Yeah I found that but that doesn't tell me what anyone actually uses. I've tried each of the open-source and freeware apps, I'm asking this because the rest seem pretty pricey for a bootstrapper.

I also have very little low-level bittorrent experience, but the static nature of .torrent files would be tricky. You'd need some sort of snapshotting diffs to convert to .torrent equivalents at regular intervals, right?

yuri already chimed in, but if I were ever in a position to be paying over 5k/mo for a service I think I'd be contacting sales no matter what! Startup B2B companies are nearly always willing to work with you on pricing.

My main issue with my wink is that it has to go all the way across the internet to connect to the box 10ft away from me. A much "smarter" system would simply connect directly over my home wifi and avoid most of the lag and connect

I stand corrected, thanks. Odd that I have to go searching and there is nothing published about it?

Its a decent intro, but I think instead of just jumping into parallel code, its better to read the docs before hand. There are plenty of references to GOMAXPROCS and the thread safety of math/rand (and most of the stdlib).

How are you going to kick a rocket falling from outer space? You don't need active thrusters (and all the extra weight that comes with it) when gravity and wind will do the job for you just as well.

These tuts were how I got started too, only a bit later than BBS (I believe I got them from the hornet archive, which I got a LOT of tutorials from). I would never have gotten into coding if it hadn't been for all the awesome demoscene
