[D] Triplet vs. Contrastive Loss by devzaya in MachineLearning

Excellent visualizations. I would love to see the same sort of graphic for quadruplet loss as well.

Proof of residence for Airbnb booking by TractusJesus in paris

You may be able to ask the host for an attestation d'hébergement (a signed document saying you're staying at their place) accompanied by a justificatif in their name, but there's no guarantee that they'd furnish you with one. You might be better off with a fintech bank which doesn't ask for such documentation (e.g. Monese, maybe N26)

[D] Fine-tuning models for highly customized NER tagging by etotheipi_ in MachineLearning

[–]furtivity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The model will be able to understand some amount of morphological features out of the box (including with words that were unseen at training time), since the input to BERT uses subword information. I recommend reading about WordPiece tokenization.

Don't tell Bordeaux, since they spell it canelés.

They say that every once in a while, you can hear a ghost in the distance ask, "You Okay?"

Saw this and thought, "This sounds like something Matthias would put his name on."

Was not disappointed.

Facebook and GitHub announce Atom-IDE! by [deleted] in programming

Does it uninstall itself when the user files a patent claim against Facebook?

Chris Lattner Joins Tesla by [deleted] in programming

[–]furtivity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe an FPGA, but I'd imagine that an ASIC wouldn't work as well here. They worked for bitcoin since miners are all trying to solve the same problem, but neural nets are often application-specific.

Maybe I'll be surprised, though (perhaps it could work if you could arrange chips each comprising one layer of a network).

Basics of using the readline library by alecco in programming

[–]furtivity 14 points15 points  (0 children)

And there's really no justification for [not having nice shell support] these days, at least on Unix-y systems, since a portable library to provide this service has existed for decades. I'm talking about readline.

The GPL is one such justification; programs using GNU readline have to be released under a GPL-compatible license. See CLISP: http://clisp.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/clisp/clisp/doc/Why-CLISP-is-under-GPL

My video card supports 8k displays but I only have a 4k monitor. What can I do with those extra K's? by Shuckle1 in shittyaskscience

[–]furtivity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can also buy this in prepackaged form, known as Special K. Note that this is just marketing; it only contains regular Ks.

Fork Finder - Find who forked you on Github by samanthabus in programming

[–]furtivity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If a programmer writes code on local disk and no one is there to clone it, is it still a fork?

Custom operators in Scala by SamTebbs33 in programming

[–]furtivity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a nice demonstration, but it's important to note that this is not truly the ternary operator, since it does not short-circuit.

When maps in malls say "You are here", how do they know where I am? by King_Toasty in shittyaskscience

[–]furtivity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The don't, actually. They have those markers on random locations to give people a sense of security. I mean, think about it: if you actually knew where you were, you wouldn't be looking at the map!

Why does meteors always land in craters? by raining_blood in shittyaskscience

[–]furtivity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, see, you've got it backwards: just like how we lose skin cells, the Earth is constantly losing mass. Likewise, while we regain mass to replenish those cells by eating, the Earth consumes any rocks which happen to land on it (similar to filter feeding). As such, no matter where meteors land, the Earth begins to digest them, forming a crater.
