I skipped to the end and watched Alan Edelman’s talk on (co-author of Julia) mentions that only Swift and Julia make the cut for ML, according to Google. I do like Swift and I’m willing to learn Julia, but most of the ML I see uses Python. Is there any traction for Julia or Swift, or is it mostly aspirational at the moment?

But in cities like New York and London, where bars often function as second living rooms for apartment dwellers with little space, an alcohol-free nightlife option can appeal to people who, for whatever reason, would prefer not to drink. In response, Thonis and Dellea made their bar a studiously 0% alcohol space, meaning that not even non-alcoholic beers that have a trace amount of alcohol are allowed on the menu. At Existing Conditions, a bar in New York’s Greenwich Village which is known for its wildly inventive cocktails, like a take on an Old-Fashioned that includes waffle-infused bourbon and maple syrup, non-alcoholic cocktails are prominent on the menu and, according to beverage director Bobby Murphy, are some of the most expensive items they make, both in terms of ingredients and labour.

In Turing’s computation, we use metaphors of place, and state, and change of state at place, and that’s the way we think about computation. I’m going to give you some examples of where computation is not a good metaphor at all for thinking about things. It’s possible that there are other metaphors we should be using and maybe concentrating on, because with our current computational thinking we tend to end up doing our experiments and our simulations in unrealistic regimes where it’s convenient for computation.

Hey, authors: free up your book and put the PDF up for download. The free release of the book WebGL Insights (from 2015) was simpler yet: the book’s editor just asked the publisher if he could put a free PDF online, and they signed a tiny contract confirming it. Say you get the rights but don’t have a PDF of the book.

Assuming full prediction1, the client will want to start with the latest data from the server, and then run the five user commands through “similar logic” to what the server uses for simulation of client movement. In Half-Life, minimizing discrepancies between client and server in the prediction logic is accomplished by sharing the identical movement code for players in both the server-side game code and the client-side game code. First, you’ll notice that, depending upon the client’s latency and how fast the client is generating user commands (i.e., the client’s framerate), the client will most often end up running the same commands over and over again until they are finally acknowledged by the server and dropped from the list (a sliding window in Half-Life’s case) of commands yet to be acknowledged.

Astronomers have used TESS to find hundreds of possible planets around the nearest stars since its launch in April 2018, including 24 confirmed worlds so far. In an April paper in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, a team led by Diana Dragomir, an astronomer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who works with TESS data, reported the discovery of a star system harboring two planets on either side of the gap, for instance. Akash Gupta and Hilke Schlichting of the University of California, Los Angeles demonstrated in research last year that as planets of certain sizes radiate heat from within into space, their atmosphere is blown away, which could send them to the other side of the radius gap.

The owners of Tardar Sauce confirmed she died on Tuesday

Grumpy Cat, the feline famous on the internet for her permanent scowl, has died aged seven, her owners say. Grumpy Cat travelled the world making television appearances and in 2014 even starred in her own Christmas film. Grumpy Cat Limited sued the owners of the US coffee company Grenade for exceeding an agreement over the cat’s image.
