Sceptical. Performs really well on 1000 docs. Let’s see it for real..! No model supplied.

To quote Mulder: I want to believe.

Well that was a fascinating diversion. This is bonkers!

Re:How to build a second brain as a software developer on Thursday November 11, 2021 @12:19PM (#29190450)
I recently took on a new, super complex project and can attest to Obsidian beyond useful. I’ve put all notes and info into it, everything.. and it’s really paid off. I now see this process rather like unit testing whereby the structure of the notes mirrors your own thoughts but with a better, searchable memory.

Can concur. This works for me when faced with some tricky code.

Same. :|
Reduce / Recycle / Reuse

Tell me which of those is going to make the situation worse?

Well.. for both your points here there are no guarantees. Progress isn't linear and just because we can adapt doesn't mean we will.

What is known is that our entire eco-system is failing to adapt fast enough to keep up with the rate of change - what makes you think we can beat it?

Its disappointingly reductive to throw the towel in and, really, that point of view is no better than 'the world is ending in 12 years'

To deal with a problem you must first acknowledge that it exists - any action is clearly going to beat sticking ones head in the sand.

What about their children and their children's children and ... (you get the idea)

It s a bit myopic no?

Re:Ask HN: How to Seriously Start with Machine Learning and AI on Wednesday January 17, 2018 @11:15AM (#16169064)
Yes, see: https://www.coursera.org/learn/machine-learning

It starts out reaaaally basic but give a thorough grounding of the maths and the intuition behind it.

Coursera - Andrew NG's course => Classic starting point, very thorough and digestable introduction to Neural Networks. I found he covered the 'how the heck do I use this?' rather well.. :)

From there, Coursera has a paid(?) DL course by Andrew NG or there's Fast.ai which looks good.

Good luck!

This may help someone out there. I had chronic tennis elbow for years, tried a huge array of options to fix it and failed... until: I found a _vertical_ mouse.

Turns out it was a micro-injury thing...
