Yes, it does, especially if your going to put a model in production for anything critical ex: self driving cars, healthcare. Understanding the math is what allows you to properly understand what is going on, how to improve, debug, etc. A person who only knows how to use a library/framework will be limited.

Thank you. I tried it. The device is awake. The screen is on. It takes my input from the mouse on my computer but the display on the computer (the window that shows the nexus 4 screen) stops updating after a bit.

Is there a way to turn debugging on or something so I can see what causes it?
Watch_Dogs 2 looks much better, try it! I also installed GTA V recently as my cousin pressured me to it, ended up in "FAST" team in stunt races; overall it's too repetitive, only stunt races seem to be fun and all the stuff I had to do to earn money (Doomsday Heist loops, Super car warehouse sales etc.) is just to buy best cars for those races. Comparing to Watch_Dogs 2 it was a significant downgrade in almost everything, unless you treat GTA V as a "psychopath simulator", then it has no competition.

For functions that are not differentiable you can use the subdifferential [0] (or subgradient) which gives a set rather than a single value. In your example this would be the interval [-2,1].

In practice, from what I've read it seems to be fine to just take any value between these and most commonly they are just averaged. It helps that these regions are rarely encountered.

For more detail, check out Chapter 6 [1], Section 6.3 "Hidden Units" in The Deep Learning book.

It's all described in the readme, but generally online schema change tools work by creating a new table, copying the data from the old table over, somehow keeping track of new writes to the old table, and then syncing those over. At the end the tables are swapped. With gh-ost you can pause the writes to the new table.

This discussion might be useful re: indexing JSONb columns and a comparison of performance (a bit out of date, things have probably improved even further);

http://bitnine.net/blog-postgresql/postgresql-internals-json...

The GIN index is an inverted index, if you're expecting to query against several keys; alternatively if you have a large keyspace and no need to query outside a small number of properties, you could create individual hash or btree indexes for each one.

Postgres is good for this usecase, but as always, YMMV, consider alternatives/optimizations if your scale or write-volume dictate otherwise (e.g. sharding, Citusdb etc.)

> I wish I learned whatever it is that makes people want to hire you in interviews. I've been through thousands of interviews, and the only jobs I've ever gotten are ones where I wasn't interviewed. Even when recommended for jobs, where I'm perfect for the position and the job is perfect for me, I've never gotten hired that way. Most jobs don't easily let you in the back door; usually you still have to go through an interview process. I still don't have this one sorted out, even if the previous two I have down much better.

Since this is probably connected to the "shyness" issue you mentioned, maybe try getting a good psychotherapist? It's probably one of the issues that could be greatly improved with external help and coaching/guidance.

I think imposter syndrome is an inevitable consequence of a competitive labour environment. People like to call this kind of environment "meritocracy", but since "merit" is not something objective that can be measured effectively, the reality is we compete on our ability to convince others we have "merit".

And since we are forced to compete for work, we feel the need to present the best possible version of ourselves, which is inevitably just slightly beyond the level of "merit" we perceive ourselves as actually having. I believe this disconnect is the main cause of imposter syndrome.

I think it's also the cause of so much bullshit in business environments. Since labour relations are fundamentally antagonistic, people feel unable to communicate problems or inefficiencies for fear that it will reflect badly on them. Especially when that problem is "I am not good at doing this task". Workplaces try to introduce blame free cultures to avoid this, but they will always struggle, because a business relationship is necessarily judgemental.

And I don't think there's an easy way to fix this without challenging the idea, entrenched in so much of our economic and political discussion, that competition will always produce the best results.

This is useful. Thanks for comparison table, guys
Clearly y'(0) = 0 here, since at x=0 the function is defined to be a constant.

In calculus class this would be ill-defined / ambiguous, but the computer is simple-minded and picks one answer.

This doesn't seem like a major flaw to me. What are you using this for which would care? Maybe you have something like a rectification which produces exactly x=0 much more often than 1 in 2^32... in which case a function like your y amounts to a special case for this.

If you cared you could write a special case for the derivative too, here's one which will give y'(0)=42 but otherwise the automatic derivative:

julia> y(x) = x>0 ? x : -2x
julia> y(x::Dual) = x==0 ? dual(0, 42) : (x>0 ? x : -2x)

Donating a fraction of my ill-gotten gains wouldn't make them any less ill-gotten. There would still be real people who'd lost money on the other end.

> You started with airs of the moral high ground and now you're the supposed smart guy to the rest of the idiots. By extension, you're implying Bitcoin buyers are also idiots.

I believe it's worthless. I'm not going to make money selling something I believe is worthless (to the people I'm selling to; I have no problem selling e.g. fashionable clothes to people who put value in that even if I don't personally). If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, and I'll lose out.

With gh-ost migrations are performed on a copy of the table. This, combined with the way data is copied to this table mean:
- you can pause just by suspending the copy,
- changes are invisible until the end, when tables are swapped.

The first point depends on the mechanism used to keep up with changes to the original table. You can’t fully pause migrations on pt-online-schema-change for example, as it leverages triggers for that part.

From my phone so sorry if too brief, gh-ost’s docs are great and would tell the whole story.

I use HN search all the time; it's useful.

There is no way to search across multiple comments on the same "story"; I use Google site search for this.

It only counts replies/"comments" for stories, not comments (which would probably be a lot more work).

It differentiates between plural and singular search terms as very different searches.

The only ranking options are by popularity and date (would like to be able to sort results by number of replies too).

> Gold 'works' as well as it does because there's at least something tying it down to market fundamentals. You can make jewelry out of it, you can coat electrical contacts with it.

In the earlier phases of Gold as a store of value I'd agree that it having additional uses were a bonus but now when an institution be it private or governmental purchases millions of gold as assets for a SoV then this usage is inconsequential.

Gold used to be volatile but now is a stable store of value, it retains this because the market decides a fair price, gold can theoretically go to zero, it's just had hundreds of years to achieve a more stable price/value.

> since the value people ascribe to a Bitcoin is entirely psychological

This is totally true of gold too, it's just embedded more into society as an element that has value.

> A Bitcoin that could be used as a currency would have some inherent value, because being able to use something as currency is valuable

It's cheaper and faster for me to send BTC between US/EU, volatility is an issue of course.

> Something has to be at least a little useful (or else backed up by a trusted organization) for its value to be reliable.

I'm not sure many of the 'trusted' organizations are that trustworthy, look at the 2007 crash, massively over leveraged assets with complex rules/instruments and collusion (that resulted in the UK with no one being prosecuted).

There a few ways where I see BTC having an advantage as a SoV over gold.

* Portability (transferring any amount of BTC is limited only by transaction cost).

* Scarcity (The number of BTC is capped at 21 million ever on the network, gold will still be found and mined).

* Divisible (BTC can be divided to small amounts that would make it more useful for smaller purchases where gold is not practicable).

Quite the opposite, distributing a Python binary is one of the most popular demand in the community, along with better multiple core and a JIT.

Only 10% of the price of gold is "tied down" to it's real world usage. The other 90% is psychological.

So gold - 90% psychological

Bitcoin - 100% psychological

If you don't believe in psychological value, both are about as bad. I'm pretty sure no investment gold holder will be happy if gold price drops down to "tied down" value.

My first for real full-time software engineering job was for a very small company. I was self-taught and their only software developer was leaving in 3 months, but had mostly checkout out already. The company environment was find but all the software was terrible.

Over that first year there it was basically the Klingon Rite of Ascension. Fighting fires and trying to keep the company afloat. I had no backup/mentors and if I failed then the company was done. I was near tears (or privately at tears) at a few points from frustration and stress. In the end I think this experience made me a better person for it.

First I was forced to learn how to manage stress. This was a big one and one I had never mastered before. Next I need to be able to juggle and prioritize actual company needs, not just what people told me to do. I couldn't spend all my time fixing things when our customers also needed our product to work. I also handled much of the customer support at this point because most of the issues were software related.

In any case, in the end I pulled the company back from its instability. This gave me a good amount of confidence that I am a good engineer. That no matter what gets thrown at me I can fix any of our problems and develop new systems. Even if I need to outsource some of the work to people who are better at particular platforms.

This probably isn't a healthy way to overcome impostor syndrome, but its how I did.

pgloader is a common lisp tool, and very useful.
They can be a hassle when you want to shard your data, having outgrown your single-instance capacity. You will either shard functionally (extracting complete tables to other database servers), in which case FKs will completely break, or horizontally (split rows across database servers), in which case you may or may not be able to still use FKs.

They're also a performance impact on large tables since inserts/deletes must make multiple trips to the tables/indexes. That's a growing operational hassle as tables grow larger.
