TLDR for the article: The nascent field of AR games has not, heretofore, produced compelling experiences. There now is one wildly successful AR game, but it is successful because it taps into a massive, well-loved cultural phenomenon. This

One nice feature is that TensorFlow includes TensorBoard, a bundle of visualization tools (e.g. model visualizer and various charts). You can see an example here: https://www.tensorflow.org/tensorboard (try clicking around

This article is pure polemical, without any justification for its claims (not even a back-of-the-envelope estimate of what kind increase in taxes would result from ending offshore tax evasion). Outrage is not a substitute for mathematics or

This seems like an interesting article, but I found it very difficult to read. For example, from the introductory paragraph: This literature equates the possibility of time travel with the existence of closed timelike curves (CTCs) or world

Agreed, it would have been wiser for his post to just be about LambdaConf and FP.

How is LambdaConf "destroyed"? That seems like pure hyperbole. The conference will go on, and most people won't remember this Moldbug business longer than 15 minutes. It's also not clear to me what is the "intoleran

I'm really impressed with how quickly the Typescript team is adding new features - it feels like every time I check in on them they have something new in the works that I really care about. Great work!

Great tutorial - Well written and good patterns for TensorFlow usage, e.g. checkpointing, name scopes for cleaning up the graph visualization, and using summaries/TensorBoard, and also nice explanations of the concepts. Though I'm

"Two large YC companies (both with machine learning teams) have told us that they consider interest in ML a negative signal." I wonder why this is? Since ML/AI are currently "hot" those programmers may be trend foll

Plottable.js ( http://plottablejs.org/examples/ ) is another library that takes a similar approach: reusable components written in D3, and a table-based composable layout system.

Great to see the Blockchain on the cover of the Economist, with a proper emphasis on underlying technical promise and not distracted discussion of Bitcoin. Also promising: "Drawing up regulations for blockchains at this early stage wou

Yep, it was specifically when I wanted an application that would run a game loop involving round trips to the backend for every step that I ran into a lot of difficulty. Ports were not very clearly documented and I didn't find any exam

My experience with Elm was that it's very elegant and fun to work with if you are building a purely clientside application, but once you need communication with server the APIs are not very well developed and it becomes a major headach

I'm excited by this. I think that moving to Github will help the image problem Typescript has and make it a little more accessible, and it's actually a very useful + powerful technology. Compiler errors on refactors are great :)

On a 7kloc codebase it was around 3 seconds before the new compiler, seems to be about 1 second after.

Check out Plottable ( https://github.com/palantir/plottable/ ). It's an open source library for data viz / charting, written as a layer on D3, and it's developed in Typescript. They have a mostly inco

This post makes assertions based on a paucity of evidence or sound argument. "Her book fought the web and the web won". How did it "fight" the web? By ignoring it? Is my car "fighting the web" every morning?

I like to blame Microsoft for everything as much as the next guy, but the admittedly obnoxious blurb on Bitcoin doesn't seem to have anything to do with Microsoft. The article is written by "John Lyons, chief executive, Internatio
