Re:Ask HN: Why isn’t finance a part of the core curriculum at schools? on Saturday October 24, 2020 @04:52AM (#24877866)

Every recommendation to add "x" to a school curriculum should state explicitly what alternative activity should be cut to free up time. This could be another subject, sleep or childrens' free time.

For example, a better question would be "Why don't we eliminate <high-school-biology> and teach finance instead?"

Ask HN: How do you do hyperparameter searches?

Do you use random search, grid search, Bayes search or some iterative process? 2. Do you cache anything? If so, what's your process?
