Yesterday my Space Cadet keycaps arrived and now my Poker looks gorgeous π
In case someone is not familiar, Space Cadet tries to emulate old Symbolic keyboards that Lisp Machines had, so this is a beautiful #Emacs and #MechanicalKeyboards crossover!
I finally made a coffee and decided to read Neural Ordinary Differential Equations (Chen et al. 2018); which re-formulates neural networks as differential equations so that they are based on continuous domains that can be trained using any ODE solver.
This results in better memory management, less parameters and better model reconstruction under certain circumstances. What a refreshing point of view, with really interesting possibilities. https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.07366
And also, don't miss how Deepmind is using #DeepLearning to predict and understand protein folding. Super interesting read! https://deepmind.com/blog/alphafold/
Renfe, the Spanish railway company, just released some files as open data in http://data.renfe.es/dataset . Not only most of them are barely useful (lat-lon of different stations), but there are reasons to believe that they don't really know how this works: http://data.renfe.es/dataset/atendo-por-tipo-de-discapacidad/resource/4cd0cba4-b101-4e60-a0e5-0aae9c48bf16
Just saw Michael's Atiyah's proof for Riemann's Hypothesis. It seems that it is not an absolute proof (and I've already seen some experts claiming that it does not hold) but it is *bold* just to try to prove it in barely three paragraphs.

This image represents numbers up to 1M, arranged using Leland Mcinnes' UMAP dimensionality reduction algorithm "so that numbers with similar prime factorisations are closer together than those with dissimilar factorisations" β Look all those beautiful patterns!
