    I wish recruiters stopped asking "What is your expected salary" My response "I gauge how serious a comp is about hiring me based on what they provide. I look forward to hearing what they are offering. You can share your range + I'll let you know if I'd continue this conversation"

    If an algorithm has "mastered natural language", I would expect it to be able to do some of the things language is for -- communicating information, receiving information, acting on the world... Not merely output something that statistically sounds like language.

    One of my favourite basic results in computability is that it's undecidable whether a context-free-grammar expresses a regular language. Sometimes a simple problem may be expressed in a needlessly complicated language. And yet there is nothing we can do about it.

    Textual explanations of code tend to be somewhat cumbersome as they often require the reader to jump between explanation and code. We think there are other things we can do with out attention. So, in we can now visually link explanations with various code pieces.

    Me, standing outside Geoffrey Hinton’s office, matted hair, bloodshot eyes, shouting at passers-by: IT’S ALL A SCAM. THERE IS NO AI. NEURAL NETS ARE JUST MATRIX OPERATIONS. *sobbing softly as guards approach* they’re just matrix operations.

    As far as current machine learning is concerned, generalization originates from the ability to learn the latent manifold on which the training data lies, i.e. the ability to interpolate between training samples (local generalization, by definition)

    Google Books is the most frustrating product I use on a regular basis. It’s *almost* incredible (search all books instantly!). But instead it feels like what you’d get if JSTOR ran Wikipedia.

    Unsolicited advice for sharing your writing: It feels unnatural to answer questions that haven’t been asked. Rest assured, if you’ve asked yourself - so have plenty of others. Keep answering.

    Constraint-Driven Development the kids are calling it! Problem = Set/Topography/Overlaps of Constraints aka Trade-Offs à la Sowell = Solution Space

    Currying in functional programming as a composition of planar cross sections of a manifold: We are lacking a multidimensional view of programming and missing out with the normative view that programming = coding: (Re)arranging sequence of symbols.
