I liked the pipelining syntax so much from pyspark and linq that I ended up implementing my own mini linq-like library for python to use in local development. It's mainly used in quick data processing scripts that I run locally. The s

Swift for all its niceties still suffers from a habit of inherently tying its conventions to Apple and its "appleisms" when coding. Tasks that should be relatively straightforward to do e.g. iterating through a file line-by-line s

As someone who has done frontend dev on the web, I find SwiftUI refreshingly good. Using SwiftUI is the first time ui programming on iOS has clicked for me. For anyone getting into this, I suggest you take a look at apple's very well d

I stated that rather than explainability, for most use cases, people just want calibrated and robust uncertainty estimates NOT low quality and uncalibrated uncertainties estimates. Your example points to models that provide low quality

That's an interesting idea and I get the motivation. I often wonder if we're already able explain predictions. There are things like gradcam to determine which inputs caused which activations. It's just that the explanations

I agree with Yann here ... I think the demand for explainability is like a person asking for a "faster horse" when what they really need is a car. When people ask for explainable models, what they really want (in my opinion) is ca

Absolutely agree with this. Another nice illustration of how when arrival rate is greater than departure rate we get overflowing queues: http://setosa.io/blog/2014/09/02/gridlock/index.html

Wow, I just read through the documentation for the Nix package manager and it's a breath of fresh air...Source based builds but with the convenience of pre-compiled binaries hashed with all the input parameters used to create those bin

To get around the problem of child subprocesses spewing out too much output and blocking the parent process, one can provide an open file handle to the stdout/stderr arguments of the Popen call. I've ran into this many times and this soluti

We're also looking into getting a designer for our site, I'd be interested in hearing how you managed the project. When you started with your designer, how did you convey the type of look and feel that you wanted to give your business? Did

We used this technique once in one of our twisted servers to quickly fix in-memory data structures that had been loaded from old sources. Recently, my team has been developing most of our newer network services using gevent. It's probably t

If you liked Kernighan and Ritchie's "The C Programming Language", then you'll love "Programming In Lua". The first edition is available online here: http://www.lua.org/pil/ Like K&R, it's style is colloquially terse, yet each sentenc

Part of me thinks this is a genius marketing ploy. Seriously, outside of the few remaining die-hard fans, who even knew that Duke Nukem forever was still being developed? I certainly didn't before this piece of news, and I'll now be watchin

We're also using Twisted a lot at my company, IQ Engines. It's powerful and has done a pretty good job for us so far. I just wish the documentation, which is crucial for getting new coworkers up to speed, was better. Do you guys continue to

It seems like this could be a good opportunity for us to make good use of newly available technologies. Not exactly sure how it would work yet but a Distributed DNS system could be implemented using CouchDB. Specifically, CouchDB's ability

I've always felt that autojump's "jump" command could be hit or miss when you had directories with similar paths. Because of this, I wrote a tool for myself to quickly jump around to commonly used folders by using short named aliases. The m

wanted to upvote nearlyfreespeech. Even though being a registrar is not their main business, their site is a no-bs godsend for managing your domains. My only wish is that they had support for more than the usual .net, .com. .org domains

I initially looked at languages like clojure, but the slow load times of the JVM put me off. Now that you mentioned gcj, I found this note from Rich Hickey: http://groups.google.com/group/clojure/msg/58e3f8e5dfb876c9 which makes it sound

Hey reinvent, Send me an email (see the link in my profile) . I can help you get up to speed with Django, real-time systems, and the web industry if you can teach me something valuable about the defense industry.

For those of you who have taken a look at this, is there any library or construct in python that would be equivalent to the Events in Node.js? http://nodejs.org/api.html#_events That's the deal maker for me... To have custom defined even

wow, awesome UI, I looked at source but saw that you minified most of your js. How did you do that sliding panel nav? Do any jquery plugins that you recommend? I do a lot of jQuery as well but have been frustrated lately by how it's simpli

Yep, Gmail's interactivity with its keyboard shortcuts, navigation, settings, chat application and etc is extremely impresive. What's even more amazing is that most of this stuff is all done on one page cross-browser. This is the kind of ap
