In order for a niche community to become a meaningful business, they need to earn income and capture value.

At Google, we developed a context package that makes it easy to pass request-scoped values, cancelation signals, and deadlines across API boundaries to all the goroutines involved in handling a request.

Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, who opened Bitcoin 2021, has become a bit of a celebrity in tech circles, for his intense efforts to turn the Magic City into a beachfront Silicon Valley.

He was just ruthlessly decisive, always willing to make the hard call.

will find a common base commit between them.

systematic reuse of previously learned features and architectures

the jobs of machine learning engineers will not disappear—rather, engineers will move higher up the value creation chain. They will start putting a lot more effort into crafting complex loss functions that truly reflect business goals, and understanding deeply how their models impact the digital ecosystems in which they are deployed (e.g. the users that consume the model's predictions and generate the model's training data)

Place the cup on the table.

The argument for “everything that can be automated will be automated” is, in a way, a derivative of the larger argument that “anything that can be done will be done.” Automation is just a way of getting “it” done automatically.

Compare that to my experience with my first Roam database where I amassed over 3,000 notes but had no way of easily finding or using them.

Permanent notes

Neatsy’s foot scanning process does require the user to correctly navigate quite a number of steps (see the full flow in the below video). Plus you need to have a pair of single-block colored socks handy (stripy sock lovers are in trouble). So it’s not a two second process, though the scan only has to be done once.

I never had any world-conquering ideas or blue sky visions for the project and tool. I just wanted it to do Internet transfers good, fast and reliably and that’s what I worked on making reality.

It would then let us “see” the contents of that URL. The letter C is pronounced as see, so “see URL” also worked.

I’ve said it many times before but I started poking on this project because I wanted to have a small tool to download currency rates regularly from a web site site so that I could offer them in my IRC bot’s currency exchange.

They can get 3D measured in two minutes, and shop at stores including Under Armour, Express, Ted Baker, Nili Lotan, Paige and Good American.

Fit Analytics’ core product is Fit Finder, an app that lets shoppers enter information on a retailer’s website and then makes product recommendations of the best-fitting items.

Fit Consultant and Fit Intelligence are retailer- and brand-facing tools that use machine learning to help them learn things like age and weight and height distribution among customers to optimize the product mix.

so knowledge gained from ImageNet may not transfer to medical images.

And so rather than dwell on citrus, Lind moved on to describe his own humour-inspired explanation of scurvy: that it was actually a digestive disease caused by blocked sweat glands.

Vitamin C is destroyed by heat—not to mention cutting, bruising, exposure to air, and being cooked in copper pots.

Even though no one knew the cause of scurvy or what about these various foods made them antiscorbutic, many mariners recognized a connection between their diets and their health.

The hospital pensioners and most of the young marines were dead.
