Friend of mine is a nurse at a major NYC hospital. Texted her to see how she’s doing with the pandemic. What she had to say was terrifying. First, she is trained in blood pathology, but her whole department has been shifted to Coronavirus response. 1/6

If you want to understand how catastrophically Trump has failed in this response, consider that the first cases were in the US and South Korea on the same day. And because of testing, honesty, and a swift government response, South Korea has already flattened the curve.

The first coronavirus case in the U.S. and South Korea was detected on the same day. By late January, Seoul had medical companies starting to work on a diagnostic test — one was approved a week later. Today, the U.S. isn’t even close to meeting test demand reut.rs/3daq8mF

Whether an AI that plays StarCraft, DotA, or Overwatch succeeds or fails against top players, we'd have learned nothing from the outcome. Wins -- congrats, you've trained on enough data. Fails -- go back, train on 10x more games, add some bells & whistles to your setup, succeed.

My only real advice for young people is to not get into the habit of making promises to yourself and not following through. It is a terrible thing to lose the ability to believe in your own words.

If you have a theory, you must try to explain what’s good and what’s bad about it equally. Science teaches standard integrity and honesty.

The difference between a small company and a startup is: a startup’s #1 priority is to validate a product and a small company’s #1 priority is to survive.

Students, be the type who uses knowledge to be useful to others - and not to impress.

There's a big difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something!

The fact that Apple won’t let Amazon sell me a Kindle book in-app without demanding a preposterous 30% cut is a pertinent reminder that even Cook and Co is willing to fuck with customers when the strategy tax calls for it. It’s sad.

Don't feel frightened by not knowing things. It's OK to say, "I don't know." Doubt is not to be feared but welcomed and discussed.

Writing a DL paper in 2018: 1. Come up with “brain-inspired” modification to a well-known architecture 2. Test the method on 200 standard tasks, find *one* where it’s better 3. Don’t calculate stat. significance 4. Come up with after-the-fact justification 5. Publish
