Are these numbers for real, and are these all Bay Area? I'm further North and pull no where near these numbers as an ML PhD with a lot of experience now in the tech industry. Have …

I didn't look too hard but didn't see any similar free services with full DNS management and an API for cache validation. Would love a suggestion here too!

Seeing a link to the dailymail is a hint that HN may be jumping the shark. This is a UK rag of a paper. Clearly this driver is outside of the recommended highway driving scenario. …

I was also desperate to see this. And rightly so, here's what looks like a prototype link from above - and it's beautiful! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-drmRYsvUaM You can reall…

Please show a paper where fine-grained vehicle classification in unconstrained images is anywhere near this performance from 20 years ago. You will not be able to, because it wasn'…

This is brilliant, thank you. On the Musk transcript I found this formatting confusing: "Have you played Kerbal Space Program? What do you think SpaceX uses for testing software?" …

I don't see anything new here, but for any practioners like myself Scikit-learn and Spyder were the Python tools which finally moved me from a die hard MATLAB junkie. I grabbed the…

So I had always heard this is the case, and now believe this must be a common misconception. See Table 6 in this file from the Office of National Statistics: http://www.ons.gov.uk/…

Relevant, very similar paper input/output wise, from our resident karpathy with a detailed discussion in comments: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8621658

If you read his e-mail he admits he was "completely wrong" http://news.microsoft.com/2014/10/09/satya-nadella-email-to-...

This would work for 2D games, but 3D projection doesn't allow this. Furthermore in a 3D game there are more than two degrees of freedom.

Works great in IE11 on an X1 Carbon.

Were they playing anything or just walking around in the demo? I have one and have tested it out with many people. When people get sick it's usually because they've been in one of …

Didn't hunt for the source of this one but I did find some true 4K examples here: http://media.xiph.org/video/derf/ CTRL-F 2160p

I had to drop the www http://visamapper.com/

Which attributes would you sample from a normal distribution here? I don't see any numerical attributes where this would make sense. One could add weight, height, age etc. and samp…

Wasn't obvious to me on a first skim through either, but on second viewing all simple variable names are single letters - exactly as one would get through minifying. See for exampl…

If you grab the resources you can see the lightmaps.

In a mission to gather data then clearly extra megapixels give you extra data. You cannot argue against that! We aren't talking amateur photography here where the quality of the sh…

The laser is 6.5KM wide when it reaches the moon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Laser_Ranging_experiment

Adding complementary features such as edges (I'm guessing this is what you mean by lines) tends to improve the accuracy. It would also be possible to do this in real time. I don't …

Same for me on FF 3.6.13 Windows7 64

The deformable part based model is pretty much /the/ state-of-the-art object detection model. There is absolutely no way it should be attributed to "Liu Liu". It's creators are Fel…

Pedantically a 400% increase would be going from 1 malware app to 5. "The amount of malware is 400% what it used to be" would be 1 to 4.

I have also used libsvm a lot and can heartily recommend it - but only for non-linear kernels. If you wish to use a linear SVM (which if you aren't familiar with machine learning y…
