Deep learning neural style transfer DL4J
New meta

Sometimes there are fun conversations I think about transcribing, so I added support in my web tools. This, of course, meant partly manifesting a longstanding desire to create avatars for everyone mentioned herein. The second part is ongoing, the first part took an hour or two at the keyboard.

It's actually Zac that engages your mindless celebrity banter. I'm the one you talk to about VPNFilter. And Reverse Scrum.
wtf is reverse scrum?
It's like Scrum, but reverse. It's the hottest new thing in software process engineering.
You write the code, then tell people how long it took you and then figure out why you did it?
It's still considered scrum because there's no testing.

Dang, this guy is ready to be an uncertified ScrumSlave. You just need to take my six week course.
I am a certified Scrum Master from a previous job, actually. Somewhere there's a printed piece of paper that confirms it. sants

Do you ever wonder about your life choices?
No need. I'm doing life in reverse Scrum. By the time I need to figure out why I did it, I'll be dead.
That's the inagility that makes a great engineer! Don't forget to determine how long things took by playing a dice game.
That makes me more agile actually. If there is no plan, it's impossible to be inagile.
There is a plan, it just happens in reverse. Good god I need to buy you a Reverse Scrum book.
Here's your super meta certificate:

Battleship board game

Jes and I have had some casual evenings out. In one I got wrecked at Battleship. And Scrabble.

Not a ton of work on the neural side of things, but did get larger images going along with some code refactor.

Deep learning DL4J style transfer Zero motorcycle

Grabbed a Sealight 9003 led lamp for the Zero. Seems wise to go led with an electric vehicle. The swap went well, I was even able to keep the dust boot in the configuration. Of course working with connectors in tight areas is never a quick process.

Also picked up the CRG in-bar adapter to make the bar end mirror from the Duc work.

Sea of Thieves bombarding ship in port

The lolbaters crew is going fully against the pirate code - lighting up ships in port, ignoring signalling lights, and other piratey things. Rarecrosoft released a minor content update, hoping more comes soon.

It's got its ups and downs. But you can't deny the view.

Programmer Productivity: Emacs versus IntelliJ IDEA | Henrik Warne's blog

For seven years I coded in C++ using Emacs. Four years ago, when I changed jobs, I switched to Java development using IntelliJ IDEA. Without a doubt, I am much more productive writing code in IntelliJ IDEA compared to using Emacs. Here's why: Navigation Coding is really something like 80% navigation, and only 20% actual...

The Neural Network Zoo - The Asimov Institute

With new neural networkarchitectures popping up every now and then, its hard to keep track of them all. Knowing all the abbreviations being thrown around (DCIGN, BiLSTM, DCGAN, anyone?) can be a bit overwhelming at first. So I decided to compose a cheat sheet containingmany of thosearchitectures. Most of theseare neural networks, some are completely []
