The cloud version is extremely slow. It is buggy. Prior to the recent UI update, it was unintuitive. The new UI is better but still not great. Ironically, their UI update makes Jira more like Clubhouse.

You may like Clubhouse.io then. Clubhouse feels like I am using Github when committing code and automatically updating issues which I love. But it also has the higher level project management tools Github is missing. To Zepel team: I think

It wasn't an obviously stupid business decision, it wasn't even stupid. But I can see how expert users like yourself would be upset. Prior to the ribbon design, Office was extremely hard to use, excluding the most basic features,

Yes? Why would you think otherwise?

by rpedela 7y ago
Yeah I agree. Deep learning mostly eliminates feature engineering which is a huge win. However BERT and other transformer models take too damn long to train. I still prefer using FastText for transfer learning because it can be trained on l

Historically, that is a relative newcomer to the C/C++ world. You completely missed the parent's point.

The source is my wife who is a clinical pharmacist at a large hospital which has a sizable uninsured patient population. Here is the first result on Google which does talk a little about federal funding for "uncompensated care" [1

Yes, it is dysfunctional. No one is arguing otherwise.

The government reimburses hospitals for ER visits if the patient can't pay.

For cancer, yes. For chronic diseases that can treated with a pill like heart disease and diabetes, they will prescribe the pills. People should use the word universal if that is what they mean.

While traveling outside the US, I have found many people think Americans are cold and heartless and just let people die. It is an understandable conclusion the way people talk about the US system in the media and internet, but it also isn&#

There is public health care in US. Medicare for old people, Medicaid for poor people, and anyone without insurance can go to the ER. It may not be great, but it does exist.

What's wrong with running Solr/ES? It is trivial to run either in standalone mode, and it is a lot easier to set up autocomplete with misspelling support than messing with PG. Algolia is a good option if you have the budget.

Most of their GPUs are still used for gaming and graphics acceleration, but you are right that their cards and drivers generally work well on Linux and FreeBSD. I think the main issue is that they have no intention of making their driver op

You can always find examples that counter the generalization but don't necessarily make the generalization false. In general, a 40 year old is going to be better than a 25 year old in understanding how software is applicable to busines

I actually think it is a strength or really being able to use Cython to compile Python into C/C++ is the strength. There aren't too many scripting languages where I can do very little work/setup to get C-like performance, and

Technically yes, but it feels very different to an open office with 50 people in it. <=10 is small enough that everyone is able to respect each others' privacy, noise, etc while still enjoying some of the benefits of an open office

Games, books, and other entertainment forms only provide passive income if they are hits, and it is hard, if not impossible, to predict a hit. Tools are a much better path because you don't need to guess if people will like it since th

I agree overall but it's not that hard to get people to talk to you if done a certain way. If you are trying to sell them while talking, yes that will be hard/impossible. However if you approach it as learning from experts, then I

Do you want them to constantly ask for useless junk or unhealthy junk (e.g. sugary cereal)? Throwing a tantrum when they don't get their way?

If you just need to store JSON, it is better to use json rather than jsonb because it will be compressed just like text. If you need to query it, jsonb is better. I have several use cases where I just need to store JSON.

I bet it wasn't a total waste. The real point of school, particularly university, is to learn how to learn rather than learn a bunch of facts or tools. Attending university probably made it a lot easier for you to switch professions tw

The article said that this new research makes plastic recycling like aluminum recycling in that it can separate impurities. I don't see any reason why recycled plastic wouldn't be at least price competitive with virgin plastic if
