    What you're describing is a simplified version of gradient descent (tweaking the weights) and online learning (working on one sample at a time). This version will not get you far, …

    Not sure how you can compare vscode with TRAMP. A lot of dev work nowdays is done in containers where you install specific versions of dev tools, compilers, etc. Vscode is one clic…

    Let me get this straight. * A west-aligned country is at war with a terrorist organization which is part of the Russian-Iranian-North Korean axis of evil. * A war which the terrori…

    Isn't this a circular argument? The question was what "useful" things do these crypto solutions/companies provide, and your example is a product which allows regulated entities to …

    The solution you suggest is irrelevant to the issue mentioned in the article. Even if you use np.random.RandomState, or any other "explicit RNG state", that state will still be cop…

    Why use autoscaling and not just launch the instance directly from lambda? The run time is short so there's no danger of two instances running in parallel

    > Convolutional layers are just simplifications which make training easier. They are priors in the sense that we know a fully connected layer in image applications would just devol…

    Sorry, I meant the claim about f and g. Assuming you meant that F(I) should be continuous functions, you can construct an h from f,g to be cont on I and J, no? So it's not an axiom…

    I don't understand why the claim in your second paragraph is an axiom. Doesn't it follow trivially from your definition?

    Interesting articles, thanks!

    The US, France, and other European countries I can actually understand, since these countries performed military operations in Iraq and/or Syria, but I'll be very surprised if Isra…

    A lot of "may" and "might" in your reply, and absolutely no facts. The facts are that on ISIS' agenda, fighting Palestinian groups such as Hamas has a higher priority than fighting…

    I think the context you've quoted only further proves my point. This sentence means absolutely nothing to me, it's trivial and devoid of any actionable information. But because the…

    I'm going to sound very aggressive, but I don't understand the point of this book. They say > The material in this book is too valuable not to share. and after reading the sample I…

    Can you (or someone else) explain the need for the language to be functional?

    This comment is very confusing. First of all, the linked paper doesn't state what you claim it states. The authors show equivalence between two specific frameworks of neural networ…

    You probably already know this, but setting up a cross-compiler toolchain is a super annoying task, and is very dependent on the distro you're using. I'm sure the author knows abou…

    Moxie is a great researcher and WhisperSystems seem serious. However, I don't understand why you claim that TextSecure is designed by cryptographers. From what I've seen, they use …
