Thanks!

Creative idea - I'll think about this.

Awesome idea!

"Creatures" is a stretch given that the environment is Minecraft, but the idea is simple: iteratively add blocks conditionally (tensor convolution) on the current environment (bloc…

The author miss-understands how simulated data is created by GANS, VAEs, and other non-physics based simulations. Let's say you have a dataset and would like to create synthetic da…

We'd all be happier writing math; writing code is just a nuisance.

It's just about package support and the community. If researchers and practitioners were choosing a language based on merit alone it would probably be Julia for native speed and su…

Ditto. I didn't realize people were getting picked up enough by the authorities to merit building a Windows clone.

The choice of language usually comes down to the packages. In any of the three aforementioned languages one can easily and quickly manipulate matrices short of an unwillingness to …

What kind of flipping are you talking about? I can transpose a matrix in numpy with X.T. What is cumbersome about this?

When I was in my early twenties I had some amazing experiences that prompted me to ask the question, "if I died today, would I be ok with it?". I'm thirty five now and no matter ho…

set -o vi.

I suffered from panic attacks throughout my 20's. Recently I went to a cognitive behavioral therapist who guided me through a hyperventilation technique to simulate the physical sy…

That's funny, I've been following my passions and now I'm a data scientist. I can split my friends into two groups: those that followed their passions and are happy, and those that…

Probability and stochastics by Erhan Cinlar is a modern, measure theoretic approach to probability.

Fluff. It's very hard to find good people. If you're good at what you do you'll easily find an appealing position once you sort out culture. Stay away from the megalomaniacs delude…

Seriously? It's hard enough to find talented people. Why do you expect them to research and understand your company along with 100 others they are applying to? Smart people will gr…

Why do so many companies bother posting without a salary range? I pass right over those.

What's the point of using Windows as a Dev or data science environment anyway? Everything is built and works well in Linux, scripting is powerful, it's free, etc.. seriously asking…

I've moved to Anaconda and never looked back. Worst case you use pip within your Anaconda environment. Best and usual case everything just works.

Yeah use Ubuntu, your life will get way easier.

Yeah I love Julia but it's hard to argue with Python's data science stack. Sometimes it's almost to easy to get things done.

I suppose I am thinking of it from math/coding perspective where the right idea saves a ton of time.

"deep work"meaning concentrate. Breaks, of course. Innovation does not happen at the grind. Funny how concentration has gone out of fashion.

Statistics and machine learning have a huge amount of overlap. Almost seems silly we separate the fields.
