    Thank you for sharing. One thing I found confusing was the introduction of l_{i}'(x). I kept thinking this was short for \frac{d}{dx} l_{i}(x), but it's not the derivative!

    I wonder how much of the price action is due to debt funded purchases through MSTR and other leveraged ETFs (e.g. BITU, BITX)?

    I've always thought the use of "Tensor" in the "TensorFlow" library is a misnomer. I'm not too familiar with ML/theory, is there a deeper geometric meaning to the multi-dimensional…

    I think the link to "nocash" is broken. It should go to: https://problemkaputt.de/fullsnes.htm#snestimingoscillators

    I was thinking it would be cool to add another slider for day of the year. That way you can see how the differences change as local timezones roll through their own daylight saving…

    I believe they want to signal to the rest of the world that they are still a stable alternative for western nuclear fuel buyers. Uranium is the spice, and the spice must flow. Of c…

    I think the chips were built with zero-spin silicon (ZS-Si) from Silex (SLX/SILXY): https://www.silex.com.au/silex-technology/silex-zs-si-produc...

    Thanks for explaining and creating the gist! Makes sense now that everything (* / + -) needs to be done modulo 61.

    That was definitely a typo. Thanks for your response!

    Thank you so much for creating this! Under the Curve61 point addition example, I was trying to follow the formula for adding two points: P:(x1, y1) + Q(x2, y2) = R(x3=l^2-x1-x2, y3…

    Much respect to the ScummVM team as they allowed me to play the original "Secret of Monkey Island" after it left my local library! Ironically, I no longer needed the "Dial a Pirate…

    From what I can see, this just waters the plants? Is there any weed control (e.g. spraying with super-heated Clove oil)?

    I know very little about CNNs. But, I noticed the ReLu Activation step is Max(0,x) where x is the sum of the pixel intensities from each channel. In this example, it appears x > 0 …

    The gentle gradients and transformations from black & white to color are charming. It made me think of the scene in Wizard of Oz where Dorothy steps into Technicolor.

    Logistically speaking, I wonder what's the best way to create a tree map/database for my own town? Google maps will go a long way towards getting location. Is the rest just driving…

    My father owned a tree service in the town I grew up in. We spent countless hours driving around town, looking at different trees and giving estimates for trimming and removal. I c…

    It works on quite a few sites e.g. Financial Times, Bloomberg, Washington Post. But not on Wall Street Journal.

    Currently I'm not using a tablet. But, I'm doing an M.S. in Actuarial Science. With > 90% of my notes being formulas, I would buy a tablet just for this feature :)

    Just curious if there is any plan for the Mathpix OCR/engine to transcribe tablet notes in real-time to a LaTeX document? That would be the holy grail for me.

    I just wanted to say that I've used Hexopress in the past and really enjoyed it. Keep up the good work!
