Maybe I am wrong, but I have always perceived that the influence of Japanese culture on America is no longer as strong as it was in the 90s and early 00s. That could be my childhood bias though.

pretty much the entire deep learning community is still using python 2.7. I have moved onto python 3.6, but Julia is still an unsafe bet because it has an unreliable community behind it.

I actually do the same thing. Do the dependency install inside of a docker container in order to build the .zip. This is absolutely essential for compiled libraries in python or anything that involves postgresql. If you attempt to install p

There are probably many on HN who can answer this better than me, and it of course depends on what role you are interviewing for . But IIRC, for Engineers the process involves a technical phone screen, followed by a second technical intervi

I can provide 100% assurance of that. We choose projects based on "Doing the most good, for the most people, in the most need". It could be easily argued that the vast majority of our work, focuses on helping vulnerable population

They are actually very public about the fact they are not a machine learning company and are more or less opposed to machine learning. Their goal has always been to wrangle data and make it useful to human decision makers. not automate deci

another point is that Linear Regression IS Machine/statistical Learning. Sure its been around for more than 100 years before computation, but regression algorithms are learning algorithms. Arguing for more linear regression to solve a

caps lock is like the joker in a deck of cards. We need it so we can remap it to ESC (the ace of spades of keys).

This is actually unclear. A lot of our metro systems are held together by crumbling infrastructure (like DC) and are becoming extremely slow, delayed and rely on unsafe tracks. To make matters worse a lot of competing jurisdictions are cutt
