This articles speaks of Xi Jinping as if he is taking all the decisions. There are a lot more people behind him that are assessing the situations based on merits rather than personal whims. It's only the Western ignorance that makes us

It's so funny to hear the interviewer explaining to Jim what he understands. All this happening after in the first part of the interview he couldn't compute the answer Jim gave when explaining predicting branches. Also he's i

I have a Garmin Fenix 6 Pro and I find it pretty accurate. I set the watch to watch for sleep between 10pm and 8am. Recently with COVID-19 I've been going to bed past 2-4pm. In the morning the first thing I do is check the sleep stats.

I'm learning how to draw, sketch and doodle. Something I always wanted to do. On top of that I have three books I was always too intimidated to start reading: * Deng Xiaopong and the transformation of China - Ezra Vogel * Leonardo Da V

What would be interesting to understand is how do they bootstrap the production process and what design methodology they use for the ventilator. Do they just go to Siemens and ask for a basic schematics they are happy to share that could po

Your supplier's supplier is most of the time confidential information and part of your secret sauce. When one manages to take an omniscient seat, it's easy to see the flaws in the system. In practice this rarely is true. Unless yo

In app messages, guidance can be helpful, sometimes, when applied in a conscious manner. Great apps don't come with an user guide. Neither should your app. When to navigate your app requires upfront manual reading you're doing som

The nice thing about philosophical views is that they don't really matter. Whatever gets the ball rolling in beating the SotA we'll accept it. In science we shouldn't have to abide by philosophical views. They only hurt. Theo

The nice thing about lobbying is that you only need to spend just the minimum amount that tips the balance. Just like Trump used money and what not in his elections to win just enough votes, where it actually mattered :). Another cool thing

As a citizen, there should be no difference in how my vote is counted when I work for a company, ten or no company. If the company I work for is bankrupt or wealthy that shouldn't matter either. 1 person, 1 vote. Also, technically, com

You either allow lobbying or ban it. Amazon used a legal process to tip the balance in their favour. The entire lobbying thing does sound to me like a hack in the entire democratic process. People should vote not companies.

The legal world is in dark technology ages. Who disrupts this market has definitely a lot to gain. I have never seen incubation in a large company work out as well as innovating as a startup that is exposed to market forces. Probably they w

I think it's fair criticism. The paper explores effects of known models (convolution functions that exist even outside the NN field) without explaining them and doing the math to understand where the error comes from. You could have ta
