Read on the treadmill. Or videos, Udacity courses, etc - hard stuff, not novels. Two birds one stone, blood-pumping and endorphins helping maintain focus. I get a quality hour of education every day, where before it was a constant TODO.

I was prescribed Aderall for ADHD growing up; 14-25yo. Towards the end doctors were loath to continue my prescription, until finally a doctor refused and I couldn't get it since. Their story has always been: it's an amphetamine, a

I'm with the others on this. Never mind the cringe - he's all show, so much so I think he's bluffing (doesn't know ML). He amps up on "character" so much you're excited for the knowledge drop - when it com

I wouldn't compare AI to mars colonization. AI is coming in strong, we've made tremendous progress - mars colonization is still in its infancy / theoretics. AI's a constant-moving target of a definition; by all accounts,

So much value. Cross-platform compatibility (browser/JS, server/Node, mobile/React-Native, robotics/Johny-Five, etc). In-built asynchronous execution of nodes (a boon in ANN architectures). Then there's dev mindshar

Or possibly 'extrapolation'. We've seen science explain magic time and again: eg, what was previously an evil spiritual infestation is now a bacterial infection. Think on the analogy, a metaphysical phenomenon became physical

I too hate when people dare to dream out loud about interesting unsolved riddles in the universe. For some, sci-fi psuedoscience is their inspiration into the field, boosting their achieving the impossible - take Musk. I recently landed my

I don't have anything certain, nor have I seen anyone answer this certainly - though this question has come up often. Obviously MOOCs will eventually be the way - huge companies are getting behind the movement; courses taught by best-o

Thanks! Right, I aim to be more a syllabus & high-level than deep-dive. I haven't found much of its kind, and with so much commute/chores/exercise seemed like a hole worth fillin'.

Functional proof-of-concept; I wanted to gauge developer interest before getting too deep. A project for building lists of things to be used in developer projects (Creative Commons). Think of those times you need data: locations (countries

GTK. Yeah, I think the way location is handled has something to do with this ( https://github.com/lefnire/jobpig/issues/1 ). I'll investigate in coming days, thanks for pointing out

I created Jobpig as a Pandora-like (thumb up/down) to filter jobs based on preferences, increasingly personalized over usage. It works more like Pandora than other learning boards; where jobs match users via hard-coded features (a la M
