Generally this is allowed if you publish the data you're bringing in. They even create a sponsored thread for it in most competitions.

As a frequent Kaggler (perhaps too frequent... it's a bit addicting, in a way I'm sure others on HN will understand), I was fairly intrigued to see this one pop up in the competition list a few days ago. Finance shops have tried t

You don't beat their model, just those of everyone else in the competition. A very different game.

My point is the winning model of the competition will not be worth anything beyond the prize. It will only be the best amongst other kagglers, almost none of whom are domain experts in finance. It will not stand a chance in "prod"

You don't have to (and certainly won't) beat all of Jane Street. The goal is to beat everyone else on Kaggle. A still difficult but much more accomplishable task.

They're nothing alike at all. Similar to how a low end laptop GPU differs from a top of the line NVIDIA datacenter offering. Google's cloud TPU offering is the strongest ML training hardware that exists, the edge devices simply su

Lack of competition and honestly I think they just have high costs. Payment processors like Stripe and PayPal don't like dealing with this stuff because the fraud+chargeback rates are so high. This leaves you with the expensive niche p

I agree. I referenced this (perhaps a bit too implicitly) in a sibling comment. Swift's complexity is there but only when you need it.

To me Swift is one of the most interesting languages right now. It's killer for iOS development of course, but Swift for Tensorflow[0] is exciting and could become a refreshing alternative to python for machine learning. Here Swift Sys

Yeah, that's more or less the only way to go if you want to use SwiftUI. Personally at that point I just prefer going full UIKit instead. > I feel we won't see "complete" SwiftUI apps for another 2 years or so, maybe

The author’s takeaway here is “If your target platform is iOS 14, you’re now good to go with hobby projects or individual screens in SwiftUI.” I think that’s generally pretty reasonable but in my experience you won’t even be able to reach t

For local networks I use the builtin python http server `python3 -m http.server` (or `python -m SimpleHTTPServer` in 2.x). By default it binds to all so anyone on your network can access it.

It certainly suggests this. Full bullet: If you use the SRD to find, test, validate, verify, or confirm a vulnerability, you must promptly report it to Apple and, if the bug is in third-party code, to the appropriate third party. If you did
