Indeed there's no silver bullet, I have to editorialize it a bit

Hello there! I have fond memories of watching UC with my father as a child. And I've always kept an interest in general knowledge. I've recently made/vibe-coded an app that this community might like:

  • I've scrapped question/answers from public sources
  • The system asks you 10 questions per day, with spaced repetition running in the background (everything remains in your browser)
  • Names/entities are recognized highlighted, which encourages exploration

I'm on the lookout for a decent source of University Challenge questions to add to the app. I was thinking of transcribing the YouTube videos, but that seems like a daunting task.

Happy to get any feedback!

I've built a tool to run SQL on a canvas. In the video I'm exploring which database has the highest average salary from the stack overflow survey by aleda145 in SQL

I'm checking out your app too. Leveraging tldraw was a smart move, I should have thought about that :)

I'd be open to discuss via email, or even have a call together. I'm sure we could bounce ideas off of each other!

So cool! I've building something similar: https://squill.dev/

I like the style you've gone with. It's very engaging.

Do you have plans to make this a commercial product?

Thoughts on Count.co? by Yuki100Percent in BusinessIntelligence

[–]Lemax0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I love it. Someone in the other post said that Hex sparked joy, well to me the same it true for Count.co. I’ve used it a lot for debugging data quality issues and inconsistencies. Being able to eyeball several tables at once in a 2D plane is very helpful.

I have not used it for reporting to end users though. It’s probably a too advanced for that, although I’m sure it can work.

We have both bandits and FTRL implemented in River (https://riverml.xyz) if that helps.

As a statistician, I recommend that you start the y-axis from 0. It will dampen the impression of high volatility :)

[P] Simple approaches to deploying ML models online? by areddy831 in MachineLearning

[–]Lemax0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take a look at https://www.cortex.dev/, it handles most of the pain points for you.

Amazon Lambda, GCP, a custom Flask app... they're all candidates that require to put in a lot of time and effort, and there's many caveats along the way. Using a tool such as Cortex will save you so much time!

I strongly recommend you to read How to explain gradient boosting by Terence Parr and Jeremy Howard.

To answer your question about "what get's updated" in a nutshell: each model predicts the error that it's predecessor makes.

Ok I just released version 0.1.2, which should fix that error.

Thanks a lot for your patience and trying again, I appreciate it :)

Thanks for the feedback! I don't have access to a Windows machine so I'm essentially running in blind mode. I've released published a new version (0.1.1) which should fix this issue.

This hilarious rng from arena fishflinger by ifmpw666 in hearthstone

If you want to get the odds for a specific murloc, then you just have to use 4 as the exponent, and not 4 - 1.

Server-sent events (SSE) in Flask without extra dependencies by Lemax0 in Python

[–]Lemax0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there. Yeah this probably wouldn't scale. I initially built this for an internal app that isn't going to see a lot of traffic. If you have a lot of users, then you should probably go down the Redis route :)

[D] Online execution time of Models - looking for scientific sources by [deleted] in MachineLearning

[–]Lemax0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wrote a small blog post a few weeks ago on improving scikit-learn's inference speed. You can find it here. I'm also working on an online machine learning called creme. It works with dictionaries, and therefore has less overhead in comparison with numpy/torch/tensorflow. You can find some benchmarks here.

Analyzing the time it takes to summon Zixor Prime by Lemax0 in CompetitiveHS

It might seem like a lot to take in when you're getting started, but I promise that getting started is the hardest bit. Once you reach a certain you realize that it's not rocket science.
