Yeah, and you can even just go into a different sport like Baseball for that time.

I do think the education system has hurt education by mandating a set of things that every student needs to know, and is under-serving everything else. I'd compare this to the outdated 'literary canon'. Calculus is fun, but I

We found difficulty with the purely advisory locking that Linux had. Also the possibility of network filesystems made it a pain. Do you have any experience with either?

Makes me very curious as to how they are measuring performance. I've seen the firing of "low performing employees" destroy teams, because the performing they were doing was important but undervalued. Likewise I've seen e

As I get older, I do tend to be more conciliatory, but I do think that even the people who like Java are perpetuating pain and struggle for others that will have to learn some lessons the hard way.

There are types of queries that people discount. Navigational queries for instance, that essentially use Google as a spellcheck + DNS. And many queries that are solved with 0 visits, thanks to the information being pulled out from the wiki,

Tensorboard doesn't do that, I was referring to things a dataset/model management tool should do. For us, Tensorboard tracks the datasets as hyperparams. The actual multiple versions of data end up being handled on the warehouse s

I have never used the same nickname on multiple sites. Often when I get a new device, I just make a new account. Especially for HN and Reddit.

You always need to balance Precision and Recall. For something like this, you want to be exhaustive. I've worked on search engines, and depending on who is using them, that balance gets struck differently on the ROC curve. For legal ma

I don't think this tool can encompass everything you need in managing ML models and data sets, even if you limit it to versioning data. I'd need such a tool to manage features, checkpoints and labels. This doesn't do any of t

It is so weird that they're 'VPN providers'. They're proxies. It's not really a VPN unless I'm in control, or they're providing servers in the VPN to connect to.

If it's about funding, then it just sounds like she wants more money for her projects rather than the other things that are being funded. Waste of time her writing it, not going to waste my time reading it.

I think this is true, but only for a very particular sort of business, and a particular sort of success. on HN it may seem like the only possible business is a tech start up with an acquisition as the measure of success, but it isn't.

If I'll annoy grammarians and pedants, and only they will think I'm ignorant, then that's okay with me. Language isn't logical. It's a bricolage of things people have done to communicate. It's a mash-up of many
