What's your experience comparing keras to pytorch?

The discussion was about pytorch vs tensorflow but your argument seems to be about productionizing research code (which is framework agnostic). Yes there is a lot of code to be written/optimizations to be done to make things production

Are you saying tensorflow doesn't have more code to check in or that even bad engineers don't pretend that checking in more code looks productive?

Why engineers like Tensorflow: - More code to check-in (Looks more productive) - More infrastructure, e.g. checkpoints, exporters etc. (Looks like they're doing more work) - Fancy visualizations (Allows them to look impressive while pr

Sure, even if it was completely free, the fact that you have to badge for it provides an air of accountability which would prevent hoarding.

Who ever said glucose is vital? It is another source of fuel that is well used by the body, some might argue more than ketones. The point is moderate use of sugar is healthy, not that its vital to use sugar.

You seem very confused as to what the argument is. Sigh...just think about it a little more carefully before responding. Did I ever make the argument that sugar is never produced endogenously? And does that invalidate my point that some con

You are commenting on an older version of what I commented. I had already corrected that before your comment. I do know that cocaine alkaloids are extracted from plants. Sugar is not necessarily extracted from plants. Its not the same thing

Do you have a source showing that Cocaine is a natural compound? Perhaps the invisible hand did demonize animal fats and promote sugar but how is that in any way related to my argument?

Yea it is quite interesting how the 'invisible hand' seems to have branded sugar as a 'drug, akin to cocaine' since it signals dopamine in the brain. Refined sugar is nothing but sucrose, a natural compound found in plan

Depends on the kind of person. Surely a lot of programmers do not care about that kind of contrived team building. Solving a high priority bug or patching a server during downtime typically builds closer bonds.

Standups are an extreme lack of parsimony. IMO, weekly 1:1s and biweekly roundtable meetings are the right quanta to compress work into so that its relevant to the respective audiences. Most people learn to bullshit and zone out during sta
