And now we have been blessed with VR chat more than 20 years later.
Uuh, AI research has nothing to do with coding all nighters. This is a common misconception among software engineers. It is more a science, and less an engineering problem. It is more about running experiments than it…
This would be great if only he was not at Facebook.
Why is it that a lot of startups seem to be betting the farm, so to speak, on "machine learning" as their core value Because it is the current overhyped thing, and there are enough dumb investors to fund it.
My brain. You will overfit an NN trained on only 1000 examples. Also a simple train/test split will tell you that. But the author failed to take any time to learn the basics before spewing out this drivel.
McDonal's for someone visiting Europe makes no sense at all. McDonalds is better and cheaper than a lot of the overpriced, crappy food in Europe. It's a fake image of a medieval utopia that never existed even in fairy…
This. Exactly this. No sophisticated tokenization. No interesting architecture using attention. And the author is completely clueless about overfitting... and even cross entropy loss. He could have gotten better results…
Were you born after the year 2000 or something? I am talking about the original Doom, not Doom for millennials. John Romero created the original Doom, not 2016.
You are wrong. Dead wrong. Doom does not have a big dumb story, dialogue, cut scenes etc. It has great gameplay, pure and true.
I want gameplay, I could care less about some big dumb story.
Exactly. GPUs are necessary now, but did not originally herald the deep learning revolution.
Huh? Carriers are intended to be mobile bases for launching aircraft that go on to stage air strikes. While they are armed, they aren't intended for attacking other ships. And what size of payload would a drone need to…
Seen it all before. In practice, this doesn't work. You end up way too dependent on a superstar who is bound to burn out, and will take the whole team down with him. That kind of thinking is along the lines of "just…
It is a good manager's responsibility to maintain the health and longevity of his team. Obviously, that wasn't the case here, and the burnout superstar even left. Not surprising.
"As a user... The $100/year dev license kinda sucks if you just want to hack around and distribute code" As a user, what does $100 a year even accomplish? It is nothing more than a racket.
I am sorry, but you sound like a terrible manager for allowing that kind of work schedule without seeing the consequences down the road. I would wager your most prized teammate left at least partly due to burnout,…
This should be the top comment in the thread. This kind of work schedule is not healthy or sustainable. Long term success is like running a marathon.
Except that's "currently". NNs can and were trained on CPUs originally.
the resurgence of ML ... because video games - of all things - funded the maturation of a whole new category of massively-parallel chips Fake news. It has far more to do with the rise of distributed computing than the…
That doesn't mean startups are meaningful.
No one said working for startups is meaningful.
Not with pubsub. You could use it as shared memory store for player states though, I guess.
3Blue1Brown is not very good. I have found Udemy courses way more valuable. Even Stanford or Coursera lectures can be better. I think 3Blue1Brown is a good example of things being trivialized to the point where you're…
Use Redis pubsub instead.
Correlation is not causation. Everyone watched Disney movies as a kid. There's no study that supports post 2000 content does anything to improve things.
