Hi everyone!

This is my first time posting on Hacker News, and I’m happy to be here. I recently joined as the head of developer advocacy at Paperspace, where we’re building tools to support the machine learning community.

Who am I? I’m coming from the bio/health IT space— I gloriously quit my PhD program a few years back and have since been working with companies applying ML to develop decision support platforms for the clinic and pharma R&D.

Now that I’m part of the Paperspace team, I’m looking forward to learning more about deep learning model development and deployment, especially as it relates to production-ready models.

All that said, our primary focus has been on building tools for and supporting ML engineers, with our first stab at that being Paperspace Gradient.

Earlier today we opened up a waitlist for our Free GPU Plan, which lets you develop deep learning models with Jupyter Notebooks on dedicated cloud GPU instances— at absolutely no cost!

We’ll be making the free plan available for everyone later this summer— in the meantime, we’d like to invite you to sign up for the waitlist:

Thanks for your time, and have a great day!

That may say more about Los Altos than Tesla. :)
If you trash the aerodynamics (i.e. get a roof rack and put something on it) you can probably overheat it at normal highway speeds (i.e. 80mph) given a few miles of uphill.
May be not 160 mph, but I go 120 mph regularly. I don't need any Youtube for this.

BTW: Model S max speed is 155 mph.
I can't believe they still haven't fixed that charging port on the mouse. It has to be the single most hated Apple design choice ever...
> If a developer you like cuts a deal with Epic and ensures their own existence for one more game, then you should be very happy.

Where do you get off telling me how I should feel? The way I feel is that exclusivity that has nothing to do with technical constraints and everything to do with corporate sumo wrestling is not and never will be good for gaming as a whole.
I've seen a lot of Hispanic home ownership in the bay area (one of the most expensive places to buy a home), from what I've seen, the people who work more blue collar type jobs pool their money together with extended family and buy a house, pretty smart.
This article should read: "CNBC reporter eggs on engineers and then betrays their trust by running their mouth to the world about it."
The low atmospheric pressure doesn't really affect the cooling because it could be compressed arbitrarily.

Shielding on Mars could just be made from surface rock. or you bury the reactor in the first place. Radioactive waste (like the contaminated shielding) is probably a non-issue on Mars because there already is too much uninhabitable space anyway.

Anyway, such things are decades or centuries in the future. In the next decades, photovoltaic or other solar energy generation will rule on Mars.
Except they'll ditch natural gas for nuclear
The goal for many isn't to actually solve the problem; the goal is instead to send humanity into the dark ages--with "the Chosen" authoritarians ruling us all. They want us to stop using all energy with the unavoidable outcome of the death of millions or even billions, depending on how world-wide their desired energy restrictions become.

Yes. This "you're singling Tesla out" persecution complex is getting old. Tesla is an amazing company in many ways, but there's plenty of bad to go along with the good.
The Inverted Pyramid of Life
Asian giant hornets ain't nothing to fuck with. Their stings can kill a man -- and if just one makes it into a hive it can turn the hive into a scene from insect Attack On Titan. Japanese honeybees can deal with one hornet -- with considerable casualties -- but if it brings friends the whole colony is fucked. European honeybees -- fucked from the beginning.
Right, but that's not under $55k. There's no question you can get a car that will beat a TM3P at Nurburgring for more money.... The question is, can you find one for the same or less money?

Next, is it one you can comfortably pickup groceries and take the family for a road trip?
Prediction: LEO collapses, Tether and Bitfinex follow suit, and the entire Bitcoin market is revealed to have been a thin Ponzi scheme built on flimsy lies and bad debt. The price goes to ZERO, and no amount of unassailable cryptographic security will protect Bitcoiners' assets as the entirety of BTC's value flees the market.
It’s like Babe Ruth in baseball. You live with the strikeouts because the home runs are so great.
Wouldn’t it use much much less natural gas though?

Great read! Thanks for sharing :)

The dataset is biased. Otherwise woman~nurse wouldn't have been the second hit for the query. Had the dataset not been biased it would have been able to produce the analogy "woman is to doctor as man is to nurse". See table 4b where they perform that experiment.

I think it is also important to note that this is an argument over which of two methodologies is best. The answer likely is that it depends on the use case. Researchers are not being accused of using underhanded methods, manipulating data or cheating.
Marijuana possession, an extremely minor offense by any measure, is punishable by death in Singapore.
Today's battery technology is good enough for overnight storage when you have a mix of wind and solar and for longer production lows you can use Methane produced by power-to-gas facilities. There is already infrastructure in place to store large amounts of Methane.
For normal every day driving pretty much every car handles well enough. Few people are taking corners with the tires screaming (and those that are get looked down upon of being unsafe or whatever). It's acceleration that really makes a car more convenient to daily drive. When you have tons of acceleration things like taking turns into fast moving traffic or merging around that dunce who decided to come to a stop at the end of the ramp become non-issues.

Yes, I have, which is why I know it's sometimes (BUT NOT ALWAYS) treated as theft or criminal damage. In England.

Audible files don’t use any special DRM. They’re just encrypted with your user ID and you can convert them to a portable format like mp3 with either a couple terminal commands or one of a few utility software options. I move my Audible books into iTunes.
> got a price cut.

from the full price, matching the reduction in incentives.
As much as I know about the Tour, the route is extremely challenging, not so much related to time-lag of the video, but to actually having a clear signal going through at all times. The production of this race is done by the most qualified outdoor video professionals in the world, it is highly scrutinized, and I doubt that this setup is a product of coincidence.
I've been using Libby to listen to audiobooks from my local library. I often have to wait for anything popular, but otherwise it's been fine. I don't mind having to "return" the audiobooks either--it's a good incentive to actually listen to them!
I am still annoyed that there's not a proper audio-in capability on the RPi4. I've been wanting to use a stack of Raspberry Pi units when building a podcasting studio featuring a recording setup for linking several remote participants, but lacking proper audio hardware support for audio-in, it's a no-go (USB audio adapters and "hats" are either too flaky or so expensive as to make it not that much of a deal to go this route). I really hope a future Raspberry Pi addresses this shortcoming.
Yeah seems a little baroque. Though if there’s anything I’ve learned is that whenever you see an overly-complicated solution to a seemingly simple problem, you probably just don’t understand the problem. Though, like you said, sometimes the problem used to be complicated and isn’t anymore and there’s not a big incentive to change a known complex solution to an unknown solution.
Could you articulate this “big difference” a bit more? So far the only one I can parse from your comment is ease of access, driving to a clerk versus walking to my desk.

That doesn’t seem particularly convincing. Or at least I don’t see how this feeds into the privacy “conundrum”
BTW sometimes in history that equation was true. For example in medieval Poland Jadwiga was formally elected a king (król) not a queen (królowa). Only several years later her husband became a king and she got demoted to a queen.
Poor treatment by the locals, similar to racism experienced by dark-skinned people.

Official police report looks like much more reliable source than article in Wikipedia (especially an article about politic and such topics).
Every energy source will pollute. Solar, GeoThermal, Wind and Hydro will pollute during their construction. Everything else we know of will pollute during their construction as well as during operation. Most have pollutants you need to deal with well after being taken out of operation.

People who want 100% pollutant free energy are being unreasonable. At our level of species intelligence and technological know how, we're basically in the position of having to pick a poison and go with it. (Or pick several poisons as the case may be.)
Really cool stuff! I'm glad I didn't miss it. The keybindings really make prototyping much faster, especially for keyboard-centric devs out there.
I don't know how US car prices work. Are those figures the real amount you will end up spending? Or do we need to add taxes/tips/fees?

Looking at the french prices, the model 3 performance (3.4s) is 62000 euros once the ecobonus has been deducted - that's nearly 70k USD!
Having a hard time understanding your moral compass. Do you find it wrong that a userspace program is manipulated by the kernel? Do you think it's unfair because this may or may not devaluate ads?
Didn't know about that, thanks!

Those claims have very little to do with reality. Show me the "many" that want humanity to go back to the dark ages.
I feel the need to say this every time the 'puck mouse' comes up: I loved mine. If you use your fingers to move a mouse, rather than your hand (like I do) then it was totally fine (and I found I could move it very exactly for fine control when using a design package). I never got it the wrong way around, never had any other problems people complain about and I loved the weight of it and used to chuck it around my desktop with real accuracy.

My only conclusion is that y'all must be a bunch of clumsy fools. :D
If you buy 2-year 24-credit subscription, your per-title cost drops to about that $9. And that means you can wait until 2-for-1 sales and have lots of credits to benefit from.

Also, if you try to unsubscribe, they sometimes offer a much-reduced rate per-book :-)
No, because of the various 'baseload' energy sources that maintain the bulk of the electricity capacity, natural gas is the quickest to turn on and off. This flexibility lends itself to be a better 'backup' than a coal or nuclear plant. Increasing the capacity of solar and wind essentially makes the grid less stable and requires other baseload sources to be more flexible. Natural gas power plants, being more flexible than the others, see that as a huge potential to corner off a chunk of the baseload market.
Seriously, you prefer wikipedia over official police report?
Your link doesn't seem to point to a specific article. I get a page that looks exactly the same as the AsiaSentinel home page.
If you value privacy, pay for it.
Yes sir, that too is supported.

So =Prince because you should exclude King similarly how you exclude to get Queen in original example.
Can we get away from the logical fallacies here? If you have a problem with the facts in the article list them instead of attacking the author/publisher.
Fascinating. I despise a lot of the scummy behavior on the internet, yet I am so often amazed by the ingenuity and perverse incentives that get exposed by people that develop these.

I admire them, in a very weird and mostly despised way.
Can't really agree with the Magic Mouse 2 being a "miss". I understand the controversy with the charging port being under the mouse, but it's done on purpose: Apple wants to prevent users from leaving the mouse connected with a USB cable all the time. Maybe there was a better solution to this issue, but the truth is that it's not actually an issue and not a blunder either. I've had this mouse for years and simply recharge it every few months overnight.

Scrolling without a wheel took a bit of learning, but in the end, being able to seamlessly move vertically and horizontally with a single finger is highly useful in design or music software. I haven't seen a mouse that could handle it as well as the Magic Mouse.
Isn't it telling that folks have Tesla under a microscope at all?
Audible has just started doing that, but only for Romance novels. A very specific subset of the market, including some "fun" filter options.
Yes, but there's both a battle and a war afoot. In isolation, replacing coal with gas is a win, but LA:

1. Has a political base willing to tolerate more cost than a mere gas plant.

2. Is comparatively wealthy and thus has the budget for a more expensive option.

3. Is in a renewables dream zone: mildest climate of any large city (i.e. smallest daily and seasonal usage swings), clear skies almost year round and steady ocean winds blowing over coastal ridge lines.

The thinking to an activist is that LA needs to be doing more, because let's be honest: there are other local governments in the US who will be doing less simply because of political affiliation. And I think that's exactly right.
Bias is not a boolean quantity. The underlying data set is somewhat biased, and the "trick" being used greatly exaggerates the impact of that bias.
Really cool, thanks for sharing. You all might want to look at Apache Calcite (http://calcite.apache.org/) as well for inspiration, which has similar functionality as a subset of its features!
I don’t know about cars but most US prices are quoted before tax. Even for gum at the store counter.
I always figured if they actually had to do that, there'd be combat drugs handed out like candy and it wouldn't be that big of an issue.
Why Git Is Not Good for Games
I will forever remember D as the book that was on the main characters bookshelf in Office Space.
What strikes me in that Google Sheet is the progression over just the last 6 months. I love that they don't constrain themselves to a model year release cycle, and just continuously iterate to provide better performance per dollar.

At then end of January, 2019 they were selling a 270 mile range Model S, 0-60 in 4.2, without AP, for $85k. Today for $80k you get 370 miles of range, 0-60 in 3.7, with AP.

Obviously the question on everyone's mind is, what are the gross margins? If these are strictly process improvements which are fully maintaining margins, then it is extraordinary progress in 6 months. I would expect that there is some combination of process improvements, technology transfer from Model 3 -> S/X, and at least some margin erosion, particularly as the Federal tax credit continues to wind down.

The TM3P for $54,900 is truly an absurdly low price for that level of performance. I'm somewhat shocked it's not at least $57,990, but I understand what they're doing -- it's almost pure margin for them when they get an upsell from LR-AWD to Performance, so the more they can shift the mix to performance the better.
> That's the whole problem I'm talking about. Like I said, it forces you to reduce all these interfaces to lowest common denominator.

I don’t know what you mean by “lowest common denominator” or how “being forced to write good code” is inherently bad. There are lots of efficiencies to writing good code (easy to test, reuse, refactor, etc), not just writing microservices.

> If you're just talking about each team having its own service, that's not what's usually meant by "microservices".

That may not be the definition but it’s the principally cited advantage.
I could be wrong but maybe one is recursively enumerable and the other is not? i.e at a clerk you need to know what you’re looking for in contrast to a list of records that you can just look through.
AI and cyber security: Separating hype from reality
Privacy was the default. Not a privilege. There is currently a shift towards it being one. That's the problem people are having with these issues.
I cycle with audiobooks - 1-2 books/month. It really helps pass the time during long rides. I've tried with running, but being a more intense and high impact exercise it didn't work for me.
I totally get it. My daughter took algebra last year (she is going into high school), and I had to relearn things I haven't had to do in a long time, and more so learn the way in which it was being taught. I use math quite a bit (and some is quite complex), but there are parts of Algebra that you just don't use commonly. Also, at least in the U.S. they teach Algebra (math in general) far different than how I learned it growing up and in college.

So to help her we went took Khan Academy lessons together and that way I could understand what it was they were going for and could help her understand if she had questions. I highly recommend them, really was super helpful and lets you move through stuff you know and slow down where you need to practice some. There are also a lot of places online you can download worksheets to do practice, which in the end is all you probably need to do to see where you are.

Another resource you can try is go to your local community college and see if they will let you audit a couple of the math courses. Or see if you can sit in on some of the adult learning math classes, usually those are geared to working people trying to get their GED or HS diploma but at least where I am they are usually super helpful to people who just need a refresher on math or english etc. I was helping a friends machine shop get more organized and improve their working situation and we sent a lot of the CNC operators to the adult learning classes for a very small fee ($50 or so) to get some help on math etc. So worth it, and what they all appreciated was there was no judgement of young 18-20 year old kids (that can be intimidating for some people) like there could have been in regular remedial math classes in college.

You'll do good, it comes back to you for the most part and you will crank through it faster then you initially think. Good luck!!
More like "I closed the gas plant, I love the environment, please re-elect me, never-mind that we just replaced the gas plant with another one in a different state."

This seems like an obvious case of checking the box while not actually checking the box.
You have a link to equivalent worries about Mazda or Audi or someone? I mean... it's not a persecution complex if there's actual persecution. No one writes articles about tape on Fords. Ever.
The final code in the "Squeezing performance 2" section looks scary. I'll admit I'm not an expert in CL and have only written Clojure, but that does not look like idiomatic CL. A good comparison would be idiomatic C++ vs. idiomatic CL. If this is idiomatic CL, then i'm really surprised at the performance.
personally I prefer to do business with a stable political climate and without concentration camps.
I understand the privacy side of things, but I'm suspicious of the motive. We've seen with police body cameras that the cops are quick to release exonerating ones, but "we don't release evidence during a pending investigation, but trust us, the video is exonerating" in cases where the footage is damning.
Of course. LNG plants are somewhat unique in that you can switch them on and off like light switches.

And that's the name of the game: Try to minimize pollutants.

Pollutants can never go to zero. There will always be some. Question is, which strategy gets you closest to zero.

Wind+Water is the lowest pollutant profile we know of currently, and such a system in a state or city would still produce a lot of pollutants during its build out.
I can't find a reference to ELIZA even though I'm sure they (and maybe you) had this in mind.

For me the best version of it was Active Oberon, but I guess Wirth wouldn't agree given its pursuit for minimalism.

Also I doubt he would bother to any further updates to Oberon-07 (2016 rev). Most likely busy with other matters nowadays.
I was wondering if that was the decision. it is well known that apple products should not constantly stayed plugged in and I think putting the charging cable in this location allowed for the battery on the mouse to stay consistent over time.

Not you personally. Rhetorical you, the gamer.

Exclusivity can be good if it results in more games being developed, at a better quality, cheaper. Do you disagree with that?
Parent comment doesn't have much to do with anything. Who decides what a 'real' car company does?
> I understand the controversy with the charging port being under the mouse, but it's done on purpose: Apple wants to prevent users from leaving the mouse connected with a USB cable all the time.

Here's a better solution: good old rechargeable AA batteries. Keep a spare set sitting in a charger, and you'll never need to wait for your device to recharge.

If you're concerned about users falling back on disposables, bundle two sets of rechargeable AA's and a charger. Apple used to sell branded versions of these items.

I hate built-in rechargeable batteries for peripherals like mice, keyboards, and game controllers.
"When Mr Fearn completed his written assessment, he said he had to save the Word document under his full name to a particular file. In that file, he could see the names and assessments of other candidates."

Hey you got your motive right there. Why would they even allow to see the names of the other candidates?
