I don't know what to make of this. Honestly, where I'm from (Canada), depending on the circle, it feels like hugs are nearly a social norm, even between people who've just been acquainted.
For myself, I like MacPorts better than Homebrew because in my experience it's subject to less breakage, less flaky interaction with tools like rvm or python, and has a better project philosophy overall. And I…
Maybe they were a little rude, but they have a point ... you just went and infringed on the WSJ's copyright just to score internet points. Just my own opinion, but I wish mods would delete posts that did such things.
This is silly. Blame the third-party providers on this one, for using exchange prices during a holiday when the exchanges are closed ...
Ha, that's fair, I take your point. I was being a little glib. I didn't mean to suggest conscious malice on the barber's part -- only that the barber may be incented to provide more haircuts than are strictly necessary.…
Perhaps labour economists, demographers, or sociologists? I don't believe ML researchers are unqualified -- it's more of a potential incentive problem. I don't think it's unreasonable to suggest that people involved…
I like this, but I feel it's a little optimistic (or pessimistic depending on your view). Isn't asking ML researchers when AI will dominate human performance a bit like asking a barber if you need a haircut?
Hahaha! Ok I can dig that, "learn the SuperHi way" is actually pretty clever. Thanks for explaining your reasoning.
Wow, that's a very cogent and intelligent response. What does the superhi...way have to do with online learning specifically? Even if you paid a consultant to tell you otherwise, it's still not the greatest name ..
I would echo another comment here and say that it depends. However (speaking from my own perspective) depending on the discipline there's no specific need to do a PhD in order to understand and apply machine learning.…
I agree with you and also with the person you replied to. But more generally -- is it fair to say that cardinality describes size as opposed to quantity? If you go with the quantity concept instead then 1-based…
Heh, fair enough and thank you, good to know :) Maybe in another year or two my frustration will have abated somewhat. Don't get me wrong, I think it's great that the devs recognized using /usr/local/bin was a bad…
Ugh, ugh, ugh. I just tried Homebrew for the third time the other day and it made a complete mess of my /usr/local/bin and also screwed up my install of rvm ... never again will I give it a chance. Sorry, but IMO…
I still use MacPorts and I am quite happy with it -- although I've tried to switch away a couple of times, I can't bring myself to uninstall a piece of software that's worked so reliably and faithfully for me over the…
Maybe I'm jaded, but reading this I came away a little disappointed at not learning anything much. A lot of the behaviour seems strange, and yes, a little crooked. But "evil"? I think a better explanation is hidden in…
Of all the kinds of automation you could choose to argue against ... There will always be a need for people lending money to have salespeople, loan adjudicators etc. But interacting with the teller is only necessary (or…
I usually buy when they have a promotion on of some kind -- I spend about $2k at a time and usually get a couple suits and perhaps a couple shirts. So that's maybe $800 (CDN) per suit? They also offered snazzier fabrics…
I'm in Canada and I really like BMV bespoke: http://www.bmvbespoke.com It's small and family-owned -- two brothers based out of Hong Kong, but travelling around constantly. You meet them in a hotel room, get your…

Another contributing factor might be that there were a lot more jobs for physics grads in Canada back in the heyday of Nortel, JDS Uniphase, etc.
