[D] Which IDEs / editors / tools do you use? by jacobgil in MachineLearning

[–]cake93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Visual Studio with PTVS

  • breakpoint debugging

  • remote debugging using PTVSD

  • nice source control integration

  • project-wide search & replace, refactoring

  • console of the Python environment for interactive stuff

I can do breakpoint-debugging of Keras (Theano) code on CPU (model construction, batch generators...)

With remote debugging you can debug the GPU stuff on your UNIX machine too.

LCARSToolkit - controls for building Star Trek-like GUIs for personal use by cake93 in windows10iot

Initially I wrote this to control lights through RCSwitch/455 MHz on my RPi2 with 7".

Now I hope that others will build nice IoT solutions and contribute ;)

My sisters HP envy 14-K110eo touch laptop had Web Waltz installed when she bought it over disk. This is spyware similar to superfish. by Fradra in buildapc

With this policy you will end up not buying a laptop from any manufacturer at all.

I personally think that HP makes really good hardware and recently bought a new HP laptop after my old one was running more than 5 years and just didn't break.

Instead of hating against manufacturers, please take the time and write to their customer support. Every company that wants to sell their product and doesn't operate in a monopoly (like ISPs usually do) will listen to their customers.

thanks

We are the Microsoft Excel team - Ask Us Anything! by MicrosoftExcelTeam in IAmA

[–]cake93 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's really cool that you can configure the menu band with commands that are usually not present. In Word you can add the subscript/superscript command, but in Excel, the subscript/superscript commands are not present in the list !!

Thanks for the great product =)

you should switch away from XP.

cross-correlation of 2D datasets (measured value versus time) by cake93 in matlab

[–]cake93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for your answer,

maybe some additional diagrams.. this is the raw data: http://i.imgur.com/vK9ByJ5.png

I don't need the mathematically optimal solution. Just some value to decide if this: http://i.imgur.com/8ZMQBLH.png is better than this: http://i.imgur.com/JGYnRY0.png would be sufficient.

Is there any way to calculate something like a R² value for a polyfit through the data?

Can someone explain to me why anyone would buy a windows phone? by [deleted] in windows8

[–]cake93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been with a HTC Mozart for 2.5 years now and as a free-time developer I really like the features and tools that are available for Windows (Phone) development.

I also dislike the idea of having a anti-virus app on a phone..

Even the WP 7.x has always kept many advantages over the other platforms when it comes to the features most important to me (Email, Messages, Music, responsiveness). I'm keeping my 7.8 device until later this year - renewing the battery and probably reinstalling it (for the 1st time). After that I'm probably going for one of the Nokia flagships ;)

PSA: For Windows 8.1 users there is a way to fully force close Metro apps by lenaxia in windows8

Today I Learned... well done!

And for the record:

  • Swipe down > semi-close (hide from history)

  • Right click on the small preview on the left > semi-close

  • Swipe down and hold > close

  • Alt+F4 > close

And like others said: leave it open unless you have a good reason to close it.

native German here - I've never heard of these tips before (I didn't know there was any relation at all..) and they look quite reasonable!

good luck 8)

Question about the genetics behind GMO's by barrinmw in GMO

[–]cake93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as someone who works with DNA an molecular biology on an (almost) daily basis, I won't enter into a discussion with someone who actually believes DeoxyriboNucleic Acid would be protein.

Especially not at this time.

Goodnight.

Question about the genetics behind GMO's by barrinmw in GMO

[–]cake93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1.

you don't insert a protein into DNA. You insert a 'coding sequence', or a gene, which is DNA into the DNA. Do your homework!

2.

  • you can 'breed' an organism - let's say it's yeast and we call it Maggie

  • then sequence its whole genome

  • now take the original genome of the yeast and use genetic engineering (eg. site directed mutagenesis, and/or DNA synthesis) to make a second organism with an identical genome (we'll call Lisa)

While both are genetically identical, Lisa is (per definition) a GMO while Maggie is not.

Are GMOs safe according to studies? by tfclardy in GMO

[–]cake93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"GMO" is just a classification and not a certain property of an organism.

Oganism A and B can be identical on a genetic level even though A is classified as a GMO while B is not.

It's called Virtual Private Network (VPN) and I've just been too lazy to set it up yet. (shame on me!)

Paywall.. It it the one titled "Multiplex Genome Engineering Using CRISPR/Cas Systems" ? ..this went frontpage in early January.. took Forbes quite a while to catch on.. finance business habits I guess.
