Take a break, take care of yourself. Be careful with energy levels and then you will know when is the right time and what you want to do.
Re:AI can detect coronavirus from CT scans in twenty seconds
on Friday March 13, 2020 @09:27PM (#22572391)
I think this is the case when false positives and false negatives can do a lot of harm, so in human review of CT scan is a must. Especially if we consider how small dataset this model is trained on.
Re:The End of the IPO as We Know It?

Article provides really some terrible examples of IPOs that failed. All of those companies were unable to deliver revenue even close to what were asummed during private investement rounds. System is not broken and it punishes disfunctiinal businesses pretty well.

Software that already is listening has more vectors of attack to put it simply. I'm not a fan of features that compromise privacy and security for the sake of convenience.

Until software is compromised or simply has a bug that stream audio somewhere.

Re:Ask HN: Are books worth it?
on Saturday January 04, 2020 @05:50PM (#21958194)
I got advice on reading long time ago that helped me a lot: "Start reading what you like until you start liking to read". And yes, books are the best source of any information that has to be digested by you. Its very personal journey not biased by other who might digested this for you (like blogs or podcasts). Its important to learn how to understand and digest things rather than consume and reproduce thoughts of others.

Re:Ubiquiti adds phone-home to the access point firmware

It amazes me that in some cases brand love can overpower common sense. When OP concerned about privacy and security is told by loyal brand users to "give it up". I wonder if companies realize power of blind brand loyalty and utilize this to their own advantage.

In my experience analytics usually become a hot topic in product group of the company when product evolution stop. We did all the major features but we still need growth, so to pick new direction we need some insight on our users.

Ah, this famous REPL driven development. After which we are left with highly coupled codebase that has almost no tests. After doing clojure for 6+ years I forced myself at some point to disable REPL, it allows one to go fast in short term and creates way too much debt long term.
Nowadays I find repl driven approach to be not so sustainable for mid to large sizes of teams.
It is fun on small/personal projects though.
Re:Ask HN: Are Lucene/Solr/ES Still Used for Search?
on Friday July 19, 2019 @08:30AM (#20478039)
Yes. They might not look trendy anymore, but they are still heavily used in the industry. I constantly see in the industry use cases where sold or ES would be much better choice, but those options are simply ignored because they are rarely visible at the top of tech publications.

Re:Ask HN: How do you organize everything you want to do?
on Saturday January 12, 2019 @09:05AM (#18891194)
I have a trello board with all personal ideas/projects. New idea? Write it down. Have some spare time? Do some work on one of the ideas/project. Trick is to optimize setup on anything you do in the way that it takes seconds to start working. For that you have to know an overview of what needs to be done and setup process should be as painless as possible.
Hardest for me in that regard are hardware projects. I don't really have any dedicated hardware workbench. So every time I have to get all my boxes out, all my equipment (soldering station, meeters, etc) and then pack it back. Which usually means I don't have enough time to do actual work.
