Seems similar, or at least partially overlap, with what I would say is the best reference on the subject, an Introduction to Statistical Learning from Gareth James et al [1]. I won…

As someone who has actively written algorithms for passport security verifications, including photo strict requirements and validation, this post really struck a chord with me. Awe…

Pix money transfer/payment system. Fully digital, easy to use, fast, cheap, available 24/7, launched by Brazil Central Bank and with massive adoption in the first year.

I am browsing the web in search for NLP resources as I consider a pivot into this new area (I already have a few years in data science and image processing) and finding this post o…

Can this statically compiled? Why would anyone opt for this instead of Torch or DLIB?

I wonder how the passive voice detection is done... could be useful for a colleague research of writting patterns.

And he is going against a lot of money, hype driven startups and arguably inflated paychecks... It is expected to have people misinterpreting and criticizing him.

We have been using mostly Dlib[0]. There was the need to develop solutions that can be statically compiled and produce dependency-free dlls and dlib delivered remarkbly on that asp…

Hey, thanks por posting this and adding to the discussion. You raise some points that I feel are very important.

Hey, lovely answer, I will take my time to go through all of this. I currently research mental representation such as emotions in applied computing which is near-at-hand with ToM a…

Would you kindly expand on the issues with ToM and embodied cognition that were affected by the Replication Crisis? You mention a main component that was badly hit, what would that…

I had the same two games in mind when I saw it! Looks promising. I wonder how the AI behaves... Dwarf Fortress is such a gem of a game.

I believe your opinion aligns pretty well with a crescent number of researchers that see in investments like this exactly the scenario for the warp-drive you described. In your opi…

This is lovely, thank you for your work. I will be forwarding this to a number of colleagues.

I am speaking from memory, but iirc Libet's study wasn't without flaws and it was contested many times during the years. More researchs like this are positive, as this is a far fro…

As someone who have computer modelling as a core of my research it makes me happy to see this quote mentioned here. People on other science forums are generally fast to dismiss com…

thanks for this! It is probably a smarter way to share the pic given the number o dead links...

Such an amazing piece of work from one of the greatest thinkers of the past century. I wonder how many CS students finish their degree without having read Turing papers.

Hey mate, awesome you messaged! I am sincerely not skilled enough to comment on the minutia of the language. I can say I really love the idea behind it and as far as I can tell the…

I haven't used Nim for anything else since then. If I had to give a simplified critique, the language in itself is still springing to life and the user base and documentation are s…

I used AoC to try and learn a bit of Nim as I liked the idea of writting simple scripts that could run many times faster than Python. I somewhat regret it though. I actually consid…

Isn't most of DAI stability artificial through bots because it is just a cryptocurrency-collateralised derivative contract which uses ETH for the collateral? It will eventually fai…

I remember recently reading about the myopia increase in China and it was largely attributed to children staying much more inside, out of the sunlight, causing the eye to under-dev…
