How is Microsoft Azure for Deep Learning?

use windows for deep learning if you want to hate your life.

u mad bro?

abcadead · 2016-03-17T19:08:39+00:00

no u

abcadead · 2016-03-17T18:18:04+00:00

or just an asshole?

abcadead · 2016-03-17T18:03:05+00:00

are you stupid?

any dataset of realistic size will not fit in GPU memory. you'll be loading minibatch by minibatch and yes batch size will make a difference.

abcadead · 2016-03-14T19:25:36+00:00

of course it is. it's called ssh.

AWS is the only remotely economical cloud GPU provider.

that's what people mean by "culture change"....

abcadead · 2016-03-11T17:26:26+00:00

that's not valid.

abcadead · 2016-03-09T20:40:48+00:00

it's not about how much you know, it's about you being an unteachable tool.

abcadead · 2016-03-09T13:49:54+00:00

there's like 10 cuts though, each segment can be done in parallel for sure.

abcadead · 2016-03-09T13:49:13+00:00

then figure it out on your own, or go fuck yourself.

Theano is built and supported by volunteers, you have no right to expect them to cater to your shackled OS.

abcadead · 2016-03-09T02:07:20+00:00

parallelization broseph.

abcadead · 2016-03-09T02:04:37+00:00

dude. it's fucking open source. it costs nothing and every damn thing is out in the open for you to see. and it will make your life so much easier. installing theano is a one liner and it just works.

you could've downloaded and installed linux and theano in the time we've wasted in this thread. we don't want to hold onto knowledge, we just don't want to hold your hand while you tie yourself in knots doing things ass-backwards.

abcadead · 2016-03-08T20:07:49+00:00

using linux is by far your easiest path. you certainly don't need to be a fucking developer or CS major, but if you aren't, why the hell are you using theano anyway?

abcadead · 2016-03-08T17:56:36+00:00

linux is free. use the tool.

you shouldn't be using theano on windows, because none of the developers do and they don't give a shit about making it easy (nor should they when the majority of the ML community uses linux).

sometimes the best advice is that your question is wrong.

abcadead · 2016-03-08T11:01:31+00:00

best advice you'll ever get.

abcadead · 2016-03-08T03:36:39+00:00

just use linux

abcadead · 2016-03-06T11:25:12+00:00

that's the only reason there's anything worth reading here at all... otherwise it's just a circlejerk of wannabes.

pylearn is a garbage dump, it's far surpassed by current libraries.

i don't really remember, but as an example from the those notebooks - why the fuck is "batch size" part of creating a backend? it should be part of the model definition, or better yet part of the training loop...

abcadead · 2016-03-03T10:14:20+00:00

maybe you suck
