A man of hiraethic & heretic proportions

Pinned

Just finished building my simple/minimalistic personal webpage which I used as an excuse to learn WebAssembly + @rustlang @rustwasm -> viktor.kunovski.com; source: github.com/viktorku/kunov…


I "made" a thing. During the holidays I learned about ray tracing from @Peter_shirley's Ray Tracing in One Weekend and wrote it in @rustlang instead of C++. The experience has been amazing! Check it out here: github.com/viktorku/wort

Hinton’s “favorite Gary Marcus quote” argues that pure #deeplearning fails to understand language. I stand it by it: no current #AI system can understand a stories, articles, etc. If you disagree w the quote, I’d like to hear your thoughts why.

Looking forward to the @rustlang talks at this year's @fosdem. Does anyone know if there will be some WASM workshops there as well? fosdem.org/2019/schedule/…

“You're much better off using proven off-the-shelf models that have stood the test of time, are fast to train and easy to maintain. Even if they are 1% worse.” Time is the best teacher.

Mars' Olympus Mons, the tallest known volcano in the solar system, has such a gradual slope that someone standing at the base couldn't see the summit because it's beyond the horizon.

That was fun! You can play around with the freeverb code I showed here: github.com/irh/freeverb-rs

I am really enjoying Deep Learning with Python by @fchollet. I especially love that the risks and unintended side effects of DL are highlighted. I recommend this book to everyone who uses Keras or DL. I can't put this book down!

Rust has it’s first Python 3 moment and so far it’s handling it really well. blog.rust-lang.org/2018/10/30/hel… — side by side support <3

One of the best talks I’ve seen. Highly recommended.

They closing keynote from @rustconf is here: youtube.com/watch?v=aKLntZ… While it’s framed as a games talk, it’s also not purely about games, and is useful for all rustaceans!

Cancellation of Momentum: A ball is fired at 50 mph, out of a cannon from a truck that is going at 50 mph. The two momenta cancel each other and in the Earth reference frame the ball has 0 momentum.

🎉 Just wrote a todo list app in Smithy, a #rustlang to #webassembly front-end framework that I'm working on 🎉 These components are 100% written in Rust 😁 words cannot express how excited I am! See it live at todolist.robertbalicki.com
