As a kid in high school I built an FM transmitter including etching the PCB at home and everything. Even thought it was not super high-powered (you're not supposed to build a high-…

Maybe do it as Roll20 does: use labels for known systems but allow field to be free if entry does not match any of the labels. It makes search a bit more complicated, but nothing c…

That's me in 2003 connecting to the university Unix servers and using command line ICQ and IRC clients during work hours.

For articles on open-source software, I would recommend JOSS [1]. The organization that publishes JOSS has other journals [2], but nothing in the lines of your study. [1] https://j…

I've used a Chrome OS device for a long time as my primary device. I'm a researcher and never do any "real" development besides some web stuff or writing code locally, though (most…

I think the model just got tired of reading text and decided to mock us :) Just kidding. The attention mechanism got stuck somehow for this sample. This does not happen very often,…

Hi, I'm one of the authors. In broad lines, we pretrained one model (the "Reader") to learn to read text and output vocoder variables, and another model (SampleRNN) to go from thes…

I think there is no PCIe passthrough for Windows hosts on Virtualbox, and that's required for using CUDA on a VM. You can get graphics acceleration on a VM under any kind of host, …

At the current state of things, AMD is definitely not a viable route, but that might change in the future with the "Boltzmann Initiative" [1]. Performance with OpenCL is not compar…

SciRuby is not on par with alternative such as NumPy/SciPy and Octave, but NMatrix (its linear algebra lib) seems to be nice: https://github.com/SciRuby/nmatrix

I wasn't asking you, but I'm glad you answered. Great advice. Thanks!

I think I have a little problem with focus. I've recently graduated, and I'm very interested in a lot of different areas. For some of them, the interest is because that area is fun…
