    I've personally flown a ton of American domestic flights and have never encountered someone who threw a tantrum over reclining seats. In fact, prior to this post, I didn't even rea…

    I had a very similar experience (though not quite as extreme) with a Comcast interview. The interviewer would ask me about my experience and either cut me off before I could answer…

    I found myself having to do some clustering a few months back and learned about mean-shift clustering [1]. I found it to be a nice clustering algorithm for when you don't know quan…

    He very well might be interested. I'll shoot him a message and let you know if he is

    Funnily enough, I had a classmate in my grad neural networks class that did exactly this. Results on his end seemed to be pretty similar to yours though I don't think he publicly h…

    It is essentially the same frequency of links that you'd see on any Wikipedia article. In a field where there is an enormous amount of jargon, it is probably a good thing that they…

    The author cites word2vec as being biased and gives the example of it associating the 'father' with 'doctor' but associating 'mother' with 'nurse' While this is certainly a bias, I…
