New blog post! "Exploring Embedding spaces with my photo library" In this blog post, I try to answer the question:

Can I construct an embedding space from my photo library using only the people that appears in the photos as the context for Word2Vec?

ChatGPT is sometimes amazing, and sometimes hilariously wrong. Here, it confidently explains to me why an abacus is faster than a GPU. 😃

New blog post is out 🥳

Graphite powers up your development workflow with stacked changes 📚

Really excited about this new service, @withgraphite!

Any good #MachineLearning #podcast or #blogs you recommend? I’ve been listening to TWIMLAI and reading Towards Data Science. I’m looking for less researchy and more applied ML, technical podcasts 🙂

Gradients without Backpropagation

Presents a method to compute gradients based solely on the directional derivative that one can compute exactly and efficiently via the forward mode, entirely eliminating the need for backpropagation in gradient descent.

@rasbt Did you finally get a Remarkable? 😀

`plt.subplot_mosaic(...)` is the single-most amazing @matplotlib function I'd never heard of 😍🤓🌍 Can't believe I've used Python for more than a decade and only just discovered it! Subplots will never be the same again 🌟 https://t.co/EBN4ndA6HL

@rasbt @rasbt any updates on the release of this edition of the book? 😁 I pre-ordered my copy and can't wait to dive into it!

My favorite oxymoron in machine learning: "empirically proven".

[Guillermo Carrasco @guillemch]

@erichansander 😂 yeah I was a bit shocked. I see I see, good luck though! Can't wait to know more 😬

@rasbt Sounds great! Thanks a lot! I can’t wait! I would say that “Python Machine Learning” greatly helped me to get my first ML Eng. job. Your way of explaining topics is concise and very pragmatic, big kudos 👏🙏

@vandotorres @rasbt @remarkablepaper @moleskine imitating 100% the paper feeling is impossible, but they've done an amzng job. You feel much more friction than regular tablets (you can even hear the scratchy paper-like sound when you write). And you can place your whole hand everywhere while writing, it doesn't get in the way

@rasbt @vandotorres @remarkablepaper @moleskine I bought a remarkable 2 a year ago and I consider it to be one of my best gadget investments. I have all my notebooks in one device, it's incredibly easy to send articles, PDFs and books to it, and the note taking experience is so smooth 📝

#TIL that when using the * operator on lists in #Python, it does _not_ create a copy of the elements in the list, but rather references to them 🤯. Be careful if you're creating a binary mask this way... #pythontricks

@tallphil Amazing work! 🥳🥳
