I've been heavily refactoring code of my machine learning project. Now I can just watch how GPUs are fully loaded, while the CPUs are not that much. Can't wait for first validation results. It's a slightly modified model which takes images of different sizes. I don't know yet wether it gives better results, but it definitely heats up the room.
It has been a year since I've got my car. It had 135k miles when I got it. In a year I rode 13k without major issues. I had to fix quite a few things to pass the state inspection, change tires, so the service expense constitutes a half of my spending. A quarter is insurance and registration taxes. A fifth is gas. It looks that the case prices are going up, but that could be also a seasonal thing. What I didn't expect is such a big variance in price between different stations and states.
The example he provides also illustrates that not much progress has been made towards respectful communication.
Here is the part of the article in a better quality.
I'm reading a paper by J. Paolillo titled "Conversational" Codeswitching on Usenet and Internet Relay Chat" His description of Usenet and IRC totally qualifies as a futuristic killer of Twitter. But then you see the years of references and remember that these system predicted social media long time ago.
