I'm having a hard time figuring out who would be buying this. Only thing I can think of is that the chip has some extra features not really advertised that the customer needed.

Care to name and shame? Or are you talking about many different experiences. I’ve never really had this problem but my sample size is small.

Well... technically most hard drives should change weight depending on their contents: https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/31326/is-a-hard-...

I’m imagining that by having conditional computation you’re basically partitioning the state space up, with each part of the space getting its own smaller network. this might allow you the generality of a larger network, but with the abilit

This work uses conditional computation to allow for "Outrageously large" networks which may work better in practice but which will be even harder to understand. I'm very interested in working on using this same sort of condit

I use emacs + auctex to edit and compile my latex. Then just run git manually on my Tex and pdf files. I think you could use just about any latex editor you want and have this workflow work for you.

The person you are responding too isn’t saying that youtube will never be overtaken, he’s saying he doesn’t think it will be overtaken by dozens of smaller content platforms, but rather one large one.

To be fair the article is talking about new kinds of plastics that might actually be superior to metal gears in the future. The consumer grader plastic gearing of today who's primary advantage (AFAIK) is cost do kind of suck.

I think people in general want to put up a positive persona up. I think most people (certainly not all) aren’t going to tell strangers how awful their job is, even if they think that.

I think it is worth telling (politely) the questioner that they really should start by telling people what they really want to do, in order to get better feedback in the future.

You are technically correct, it's just that when the vector of booleans gets long enough they start to exhibit certain properties that "normal" binary vectors don't have. Because of this the authors use the term "hy

There are lots of examples of networks being trained online, I see it all the time in robotic control.

I was under the impression DP was usually used for getting the exact answer to certain classes of problems faster than exhaustive search. I usually see approximations compared to the ground truth dynamic programming answer. Do you see the r

Author seems to use gentrification to describe a shift in power dynamics: those who are on the internet now have more rules governing their behavior and those in charge of the internet are now more interested in corporate profits than the p

I very often think of the current definitions of functions as part of the program state.

Wow you weren’t kidding that’s some good stuff. Clean code and excellent documentation. It’s interesting to me how they use “Object oriented C”. I guess it makes sense if you want objects but also want to target many many embedded platforms

I want to like it but I have some problems with it. I’m trying to use it to replace Jupyter notebooks, but some things don’t work like I expect, the UI feels cluttered, and for some reason I’ve been having weird issues with the autocomplet

Not sure why you are getting downvotes. The question is literally asking for people who don’t like vscode to voice their criticisms.

This is an interesting question. As another poster said, to do this we would probably have to rebuild most of modern civilization. Leaving instructions to do that seem almost impossible. I honestly think though that leaving behind a detaile

Maybe I’m confused by your question. I believe Google and Facebook rely on ads for most of their revenue.

It is a criticism of existing products, I have not tried an impossible burger and would be very excited to find that it tastes as good as meat.

Ironically I find that I (vegetarian, not vegan) tend to enjoy meat replacements that don't try replicate meat. I find the ones that DO try to replicate meats taste are just not very good at it, and it ends up tasting pretty bad. The g
