Paris is nearing the completion of a major clean-up project that will allow swimmers and divers back into the River Seine, just in time for the Olympics. The €1.4bn regeneration project has been hailed as a success and will not only enable Olympic events to be held in the river, but also create three open-air […]
The article discusses the concept of explanation algorithms in data analysis. It explains that most reporting in the data world starts with asking how much, but eventually leads to questions of why. Explanation algorithms help identify high-likelihood explanations for changes in data over time. The article introduces two approaches to explanation algorithms, Scorpion and DIFF. […]
The author is contemplating future-proof programming languages and expresses a preference for using JavaScript for practical purposes. However, they also enjoy experimenting with other languages like Nim and Zig. Recently, they came across the Janet programming language and found it intriguing. Although they question why they should use Janet over an established Lisp language like […]
Physicist Ranga Dias from the University of Rochester in New York is at the center of a controversy surrounding his claims of discovering room-temperature superconductors. A paper by Dias has been retracted by Physical Review Letters (PRL) due to an investigation that found evidence of data fabrication. Dias had previously faced allegations of plagiarism and […]
In the past few years, Elixir has made significant strides in expanding its machine learning capabilities. The Nx project allows Elixir programmers to implement efficient numeric algorithms, making it suitable for implementing neural networks, traditional machine learning algorithms, and applications using ordinary differential equations. Among the projects that have emerged from the Elixir Nx efforts […]
Boeing’s Starliner program continues to face challenges, with the company reporting additional losses and NASA withholding discussion of potential launch dates for the crewed spacecraft. Serious issues with the Starliner were identified just weeks before a scheduled launch in July, leading to delays and financial losses. Boeing’s Defense, Space, & Security division reported a loss […]
Hugging Face’s fine-tuned image models deserve a round of applause! They have taken the world of machine learning by storm with their exceptional performance. These models are meticulously trained using a massive dataset, enabling them to accurately detect objects, classify images, and even generate captions. What’s truly astounding is their remarkable ability to understand context […]
The author reveals their experience with Maladaptive Daydreaming (MD), a phenomenon that is not officially recognized and lacks formal diagnostic criteria. They explain that while their daydreaming may appear to be a passive pastime, it actually interrupts their daily tasks and can lead to collisions with walls. The author also discusses how their capacity for […]
1Sub.dev is a platform that aims to solve the challenge of funding software development. Unlike physical products with built-in copy protection, software lacks a reliable means of generating revenue. Traditional funding methods such as pay-to-download or accepting donations have their limitations. 1Sub.dev offers a solution by allowing developers to collaborate, giving users more value for […]
