I have a much better idea: how about you acquire some critical thinking skills instead? It'll serve you well in the long run.
https://www.google.com/search?q=70+cents+on+the+dollar+myth&... Plenty of reputable sources right on the first page of results. I can't treat people with respect if they lack critical thinking skills, sorry.
He's got a point though. The 70 cents on the dollar thing has been debunked pretty thoroughly by now, and yet people just keep mindlessly parroting it. Maybe arguing about it is not, in fact, a sensible thing to do.
No, you're not going to be a "dinosaur". 99% of extremely well compensated software engineering jobs do not involve ML. Using top large companies as a proxy of what things are going to be like in the world at large 3…
TF is in a fortunate position of having several UIs at this point. It's a lower level framework with a lot of power. If you don't need all that power, Keras or TFLearn or Slim are pretty great. If you do, it's there for…
It's just that we haven't seen people protesting in the streets for some reason. Hmmm, I wonder why that is. Dropping 100k bombs, killing 2200 people with drones, and toppling several governments sure seems like a…
The way I see it, TF is about to pull _way_ ahead thanks to XLA JIT/AOT. All of a sudden you get the ability to fuse things at a much more granular level, which could reduce memory bandwidth requirements by a lot.…
It just blows my mind that Soviet Venera landers were sending digital (!) images back from the surface of Venus in early 80s. This would be a heck of an achievement even today some 35 years later.
Have your lawyer review it. $200 at most.
You only need basic knowledge of physics to see why a high performance car without large radiators would overheat when expending a ton of energy per unit of time. Sadly a lot of people here lack it.
Because if you drive a Tesla hard, battery overheats and it shuts down. Plus once you run out of battery (even if it doesn't overheat) you need several hours to recharge it. Plus Tesla is only "high performance" in a…
If I'm working with a paper (i.e. running experiments, writing code) then my workstation. If I'm just reading a paper, then iPad Pro.
They don't use Docker outside Cloud, true, but their container technology is the same as what Docker uses: cgroups. Brought to you by a couple of Google dudes a decade ago.
You're thinking about it incorrectly. Docker is not a VM. Docker is more like a chroot and a set of additional capability restrictions on top. Basically there are several things that are namespaced in Linux. Processes,…
The real news here is that HuffPo agrees with Trump. I thought their editorial policy was to interpret everything Trump says in the most low-IQ and paranoid way possible. Someone needs to call them and ask if everything…
There's security and there's safety. Linux desktop may well be less secure, meaning that it could be successfully attacked by an experienced attacker. At the same time it's far less likely to be attacked, so it's safer,…
As a person who's looking to hire people, I'm signaling them the opposite. We use C++ with only a few maximally boring dependencies. And even in C++ we stick to C plus smart pointers, and a very occasional class where…
But that's just Windows. What you can get a Google is a full test run over _everything_ that your change affects. This lets you ensure that an obscure change in behavior will not break others, including products built…
Says there it uses sqlite.
Be that as it may, it's a relatively obscure and quickly changing language, that _ends up calling into C_ anyway.
> designed for embedding Yet implemented in Rust. Why? If you want adoption, the best way to design something "for embedding" is to write it in C.
And I guess we should just forget about Forest Brothers and stuff, amirite?
Whatever is already public. You can watch a video about Piper and some other systems on YouTube, and read about other things from Google's own blogs, papers, etc.
Dunno how it is now, but years ago it'd take them a _few weeks_ to just propagate commits into the stable branch through a series of elaborate branch integrations, so yeah, you couldn't change something and test it on a…
+1. I know some insiders at MS and their build/test/deployment story is universally very crappy. Things barely work, held together by curse words and duct tape. Googlers like to joke internally that Google looks like a…
