I'm happy to announce the third edition of my book @EffectivePython will be published this Fall. It includes 125 recommendations, updated and modernized examples, more advanced topics—600 pages in all! I'm excited to share this with you.

1970s: Let's scare the heck out of people about nuclear energy, so that instead of zero-emission power plants we'll use lung-darkening, climate-warming coal and oil plants, killing millions in the process.

2020s: Let's scare the heck out of people about AI, so that instead of amplifying human intelligence and solving the world's biggest problems, we'll make sure progress slows down to a crawl.

I've always rolled my eyes and avoided the question of "can computers be creative". But now watching the real time Dalle-mini vs dalle2 debate unfold, I'm starting to think it is a question worth talking about. Using the same input on both engines differences are clear.

In the early days of the war, @Microsoft announced that it would stop selling its products and services in Russia. But now the company has decided to continue doing business in Russia with non-sanctioned clients. Microsoft is happy to deal with terrorists.

I don’t think a regular person appreciates how insane it is that computers work. I propose we stare at each other mind-blown for about 1 hour/day, in small groups in circles around a chip on a pedestal, appreciating that we can coerce physics to process information like that.

Ukrainan tilanne järkyttää meitä kaikkia. On samalla syytä muistaa, että vastuussa on Putin, ei tavalliset kansalaiset.

Tämä on YKSINKERTAISESTI VÄÄRIN. Lopettakaa välittömästi kaikki russofobinen käytös. Tälle ei ole mitään sijaa Suomessa!

@andybudd What a refreshing thought. I think it's absolutely fine for the hippo to make the decisions as long as the org doesn't pretend they are agile or expect the team to form a sense of ownership. I think people may be resisting the cognitive dissonance.

I believe the main target of a good education should be a love of learning, confidence in one's ability to learn anything, and knowledge of how to learn effectively -- how to approach new domains and new problems.

Education is the transition to autonomy. Not a molding process.

@pmddomingos Isn't "disproportionate" already implying unfair? I'm happy to keep on paying progressive taxes myself though.

Signal’s ads on Instagram that revealed how specifically the ad itself was targeted, were banned by Facebook.

“It was evidently not OK with Signal exposing the personal data that Facebook has for sale to promote its own more private alternative.”

Hierarchical variational autoencoders are getting more powerful every day. This paper looks at ways to convert a VAE into an image completion generative model. It seems we no longer need GANs or adversarial losses for this level of realism anymore? https://t.co/1pL8QTAKsC

Selkeää ja hauskaa puhetta #tekoäly #koneoppiminen <3 sisällöt markkinoinnissa. Voiko koneen opettaa luomaan copytekstin tai somettamaan brändin nimissä? Mihin tarvitaan graafikkoa, jos tekoäly maalaa jo taidetta? Nörtti @terokemppi & luova @VeeraSydan https://t.co/snKQ1MVg5g
