I wish JAX worked with windows natively (without using wsl). I teach a very high level intro to numpy and would _love_ to have my students try jax. These students are relatively new to programming and the idea of using a linux shell or havi

I'm excited about Deno, but I'm finding that the docs still need to be improved. For example, I'm trying to build a tcp server. I'm not able to get information on how back-pressure is handled. I can see that Deno.listen

Sounds interesting, but can’t read it because I’ve apparently exhausted the number of free medium articles can read. Do the authors at least get some sort of micropayments from medium?

I really like the idea of being more thoughtful about naming columns and being more explicit about the “type” of data contained in them. Is this idea already known among data modelers or data engineers? I’d love to read any other references

Can you describe a bit more about what is going on in the project? The file you linked is over 2.5k lines of c++ code, and that is just the “setup” file. As you say, this is supposed to be a statistical model, I expected this to be R, Pytho

Thanks for the reply. I do have that book, but haven’t made my way to the appendix yet :) Your explanation clears things up quite a lot. Thanks and congrats on a useful and cool project!

I love this. The code is simple and documented. However, whenever I’ve tried to understand autograd, I get stuck at dual numbers. As a programmer, I understand building up a computation graph where each node is some sort of an elementary fu

Those who have experience with array languages, is it fair to say that something like numpy captures most of the benefits of APL/K? If Python allowed a reduce operator “/“, numpy will be able to get even closer to APL, correct?

I’ve seen this mentioned before, including a blog post by the fast.ai folks. Any idea where I can get details? If my tabular data set is small, what kind of embedding can I get out of it? Or is the idea that a larger data set is used for e

Can dart be evaluated within the browser? I’ve been looking for a language which can be executed within the browser (without needing a connection to any server). I would like to write some blog posts explaining technical concepts and provid

This is highly illegal and taken very seriously. Is this speculation on your part or do you know this for a fact (in which case, you should report it).

Unfortunately a very common mixup. Here is Erik Meijer (aka headinthebox), the main guy behind Rx, talking about the difference[1]: Let's keep "FRP" for what it really stands for in honor of it's inventor ( http:/&#

This is pretty fantastic! I would remove the 3d effect to make it even nicer.

Does it make sense to study GA for use in data science? My linear algebra itself is rusty so I'm not clear if the more general operations of GA make it well suited to studying stats/machine learning concepts.

One feature which seems to be unique to Fable is that the repl doesn't rely on connecting to a compiler on the server. If I type some F# code, apparently it can be compiled/transpiled right in the browser!

The user interface to gdb is not very nice, otherwise a utility like RR looks pretty amazing.

This is an awesome build. It has everything I was thinking of building, dual xeon, huge ram, a nice gpu. I may use this as a model for my first desktop in years. I will probably add a couple of spinning disks so I can easily move between li

Can someone provide a quick overview of the current GPU landscape? There seems to be Nvidia's pascal, gtx, titan, etc. Something called geforce. And I believe these are just from Nvidia. If I'm interested in building out a desktop

Not a digression, one of the reasons for this post was to practice Scala a bit further.

Good idea. I'll justify the text. What's wrong with the font?

Same here. I haven't used eclipse in the past two years because I've been doing non-java work. Before that I used it since the beginning of my career, around 2000. I don't recall having issues with slowness and plugins random

I've wondered this as well. However, I couple of notes. CTM is indeed an awesome book, but the idea of language kernel is older. I believe academic papers often start with a minimal language, like the lambda calculus, then show how it

Doesn't this include the new class syntax? If so, will the standard libraries change as well to use the new classes?

This was a fantastic presentation. It wasn't just a brain dump like too many other presentations. The speaker clearly took the time to craft his talk.

It's strange to call this HFT. The author makes a note of it, and I suppose has the right to call it whatever he wants. However, newbies who use this project to learn automated trading should be aware that this is not considered HFT i
