I found Amplify excellent to get up and running quickly. I’d highly recommend it for anyone without a well-oiled CICD setup who wants to quickly get a website up to test out an idea. Unfortunately, I quickly hit the limits of its configurab

As someone who works in applied ML but tries to stay heavily on top of research, I think it’s this. I am always stunned when I try to recruit people, talk with folks at conferences, or even look for jobs myself how few people care about com

This is great! I may honestly be even more motivated now to prove YC wrong for initially declining me :-)

If you want to use the p3 instances with Tesla V100's, you'll need to use CUDA9 instead of CUDA8, and unfortunately none of Amazon's AMI's have the latest PyTorch that support CUDA9. The easiest way to use them is get on

The problem with digital data is that it can be replicated at no cost and with no trace, so there wouldn't be any way for Ashley Madison to ever be sure the leak was contained. They could pay $10MM for a copy of the data... and two mon

I'm a big fan of the BetterSnapTool available on the App store. It costs $1.99, but it works with all widows and has drag-to-snap, shortcuts keys, etc. I'm still surprised Apple hasn't just incorporated this into OSX.

This is largely just an argument against bad presentations - PowerPoint or otherwise. I agree that PowerPoint is not the right medium for many things (e.g. technical reports), but a lot of these critiques are also the strengths of PowerPoin

I had to laugh at this too. What exactly was it before it became data? Magic? A choir of tiny gnomes?

I agree, but I'm not sure I would have said that without first getting clobbered by the AI. The list of really hard things for a human seems to be growing these days.

Love this package. I was using PyBrain for a recent project, but I had an awful time getting it to work and found the performance equally awful. After stumbling upon Keras, I was up in running in minutes, and the huge performance boost of T

Defining the "right thing" to do is the crux of the issue. If it was easy, we wouldn't need the stock market, banks, VC funds, or any of these things because we could just have our committee of experts make the optimal invest

I agree with your argument now, but space is constantly getting cheaper so this won't hold true for long. Also, there is nothing stopping people today from reducing the resolution, dropping X% of frames, compressing, or any number of t

I can see why you might not mind the Chicago weather, but how is moving somewhere based on weather "strange"? I grew up in Minneapolis but now live in Texas, and the warmer weather has dramatically improved my quality of life. I w

It prevents any rework from having to renumber the buildings if things are being built up heavily over time. Kind of like an unsorted array vs a sorted array. The unsorted one is a pain to search, but you can just slap things on to end with

It would be great if Gmail could provide a small notice on whether the email(s) you are sending to will be encrypted or not (just like the lock for HTTPS). I will probably still send the unencrypted email in most cases, but it would make yo

Exactly - this is the first thing I thought of when I read this. Why not start by getting your existing degree programs online? Then they try breaking up into modules, experimenting with different teaching methods, etc.

Excellent! This is a big improvement. There seem to be some bugs with the "try it now" terminal, but it was easy enough that I actually gave Haskell a try after many years. It's got me interested enough to actually install it

Lala was way more than iTunes radio. It had low priced cloud music purchases (e.g. $0.29 a song), unlimited cloud streaming for MP3's you already owned, free album listens for 1-2 plays, an integrated streaming player for third party s
