holy shite REC! Looks like pretty good KoolAid! I cut my teeth 40 years ago on APL. Feels like what I *wished for* back then (studying Physics/Math with CS "just a tool"). As we talked a few years ago, I have a (still open, hanging fire) project to do real-time stitching on a 360 stereogra

I watched the livestream from the TensorFlow Dev Summit in Mountainview yesterday. The individual talks are already packaged up as individual videos at https://events.withgoogle.com/tensorflow-dev-summit/videos-and-agenda/#content, but watching the livestream with the enforced moments of deadtime

Very exciting... I'll have to read deeper into this... I think we are on the verge of another punctuation in our equilibrium (of Sci/Tech advances)... On 2/9/17 3:20 PM, Roger Critchlow wrote: Okay, this one got published in Science today, https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.02318, they solve an n-

Okay, this one got published in Science today, https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.02318, they solve an n-body quantum wave function with artificial neural nets, they earned two separate commentary articles: The challenge posed by the many-body problem in quantum physics originates from the difficulty of d
