Can it be hosted locally? Would be great to beat mlflow
The fibonacci intervals should be elaborated more imho. The text starts too deep and needs a lighter introduction.

This makes it confusing what it is actually about from a technical/AI researcher perspective

I wondered about the same thing. Even though some parts of Emacs feel old it's still the best editor IMHO

My solution: orgzly syncs to a local file, the local file is synced with synching. Works flawlessly for my files.
Wasn't that the goal of experts-exchange?

I disagree, if you realize: "we need to refactor this file/module/class/etc." then it becomes a new task. Or more general, "we need to refactor the organically grown architecture": it's a new task. Working on a task should not prohibit your thinking about additional tasks, just add them to the backlog.

Have you tried Poetry? (https://python-poetry.org)
Overlaps with albumentations [0]

[0] albumentations.ai

The remarkable is not able to do split screen (for now). Instead, you can install the [ddvk hacks](https://github.com/ddvk/remarkable-hacks) for fast switching between recent documents and a swipe to the previous document.

I'd recommend the remarkable2 as the hacker friendliness makes quite a difference

That's what I hope! And looking at the rehackable GitHub repo I think it's not far fetched
Yes, apparently it only has a latency of 21ms
I'm planning on trying to do that as soon as I get mine. Being able to use org mode and org roam would be a huge plus.
Hey! What do you think about running this on a mobile device? What are the current limitations? Since WaveNet we are able to get really good TTS but it's always online. Why aren't there any good TTS engines yet? E.g. for Pocket or similar services

Can you point out some books/authors/papers to close the gap between statistics and NNs?

Then I suggest to try doom emacs

Ask HN: I'm building a cleaning/chores app. What features would you look for?

Hello everyone, my girlfriend and I recently moved in together and I realized that our definition of clean, how to clean and when to clean are sometimes really different. This happened during a typical argukent like: "you didn't clean XY!" "What? Yes I did?" "Look, it's still dirty" "Well.. but I cleaned it!" The solution was to sit together and write down how each of us notices if something is...

Looks like a good approach and the error rate of 3% is really good, I guess. Did they mention how they got the input data? I couldn't find it.

Thanks for sharing! I spread the info with my colleagues

Looks really cool, congrats! What's your stack for the App + Webapp?

Super interesting article. I can recommend Pearl's Book of Why to learn more about it

Although to me it's still quite difficult to apply the theoretical knowledge to day-to-day applications. Any references or ideas?

* Spend more time with my partner, friends and prevent a work/university overflow * Graduate * Create an MVP and release it for Android
Well I'm not happy about Orgzly, but it's the best there is right now

Linear Algebra is indeed essential - but Calculus as well. If you're talking about AI, then backpropagation would be the first thing that comes to my mind where Calculus is needed. On the other hand if you talk about data science, I would focus more on statistics and probability theory (again linear algebra and calculus are tools you will need)
