The video was interesting. Seems like a nice way to start a shopping search if you have a picture with something you want where the look matters. Eg, cars, furniture. etc.

I have not compared it. Have you had issues in this front? If you are asking in human terms, its instantaneous to start, it simply creates a few files etc and starts a process. If …

Not directly an answer, but similar what if thinking got me wondering: wouldn't it be cool to be able to use postgres much like how you use sqlite with python? I implemented this i…

Hi, the main motivation of this small personal project is the ability to build Postgres-backed python apps that remain fully pip-installable despite the dependency, while saving yo…

I've done both, and been on the receiving end of both, but hadn't thought of this similarity. I think it's a good analogy.

Hm, not exhaustive but I think these are potentially useful to you: The deeplearning.ai math basics for deep learning, seems self-contained. MiniTorch repo (implement your own tiny…

How did you get access to the model? I have been waiting for weeks, and am still waiting, to get access to Llama2 (released a month+ ago), and access to this model goes through the…

Does anyone know of good tools to practice tone-listening and recognition for cantonese? or tools for drilling jyutping more generally, I've used https://chaaklau.github.io/cantoro…

If you have basic Mandarin knowledge, you could try Duolingo's Cantonese course for Mandarin speakers. I think it is helpful to get familiar with how words are pronounced and what …

I really like this idea, though I haven't tried it yet. Spotify has lyrics for many songs, but for characters the first hurdle is you cannot really sing along even with the lyrics …

I'm not sure the author will ever read this, but I am also a PhD student, have been one for far too long, and in the past have struggled with similar `time management' issues, thou…

I should mention focusing on doing a few interesting problems, rather than many not so interesting ones, is also one way to help yourself understand more deeply.

3Blue1Brown videos seem like a good resource to use along any book. My experience as a math major (in the distant past) is that the kind of visualization the author shows you is al…

Instant Pot. Can be used as a rice cooker, slow cooker, pressure cooker (mostly known for this last use) Though probably not as good for rice specifically as an actual high-end ric…

After the cold war ended (last three decades), I'm not sure of any case where America has been coup'ing countries in South America. Do you know some cases?

I'm shocked they missed a pun opportunity in the headline.

It's a strange article to illustrate inflation. It mentions there is a drought that has made a local river dry, which was a tourist attraction driving a lot of traffic through the …

Have you checked out the Ray library? I use it for this type of scenario and it works well, without as much effort as it would take otherwise.

I can relate to this quite a bit, I personally think it is my biggest weakness. I have managed to do a few things despite this but just as an example, a few weeks ago I could not b…

Iron age Greeks used the word cyclopean also to refer to the ruins of Mycenae nearby, dating from the bronze age only ~500 years before their time. It is comforting for me to know …

Megalithic seems more fitting than cyclopean to me.

GPT-3 is trained on text prediction, and there's been a lot of commentary about the generation aspect, but some of the applications that excite me most are not necessarily about th…

Well, first, some schools are going online only for the latter half of the semester. But my understanding of the current guidance is that this is not enough to meet the in-person r…

Yeah, to add to your comment, this link has some more detailed explanations regarding the wheel+axle combo: https://www.livescience.com/18808-invention-wheel.html It is also worth …
