The story of why it is called dynamic programming is pretty great: https://conversableeconomist.com/2022/08/24/why-is-it-called...

Fei Fei Li and Andrej Karpathy's Stanford CS231N course is also a great intro to the basic of the math from an engineering forward perspective. I'm pretty sure all the materials are online. You build up from the basic components to an image focused CNN.

Depends a little on if you're going to a website to use an app, or running something on a always on PC on say a production floor where the app never gets exited, I'd think.

If you're not targeting the web, what would be the point of running a Python runtime on top of a WASM runtime?

You could just run RustPython as a native binary, or use ol' reliable CPython.

It seems pretty possible to me that the reason Nvidia pulled off this bet is that Jensen still basically unilaterally controls what NV is working on, and Jensen is still fundamentally a nerd (in the best way).

VASAviation has a video on this incident with commentary from a NorCal controller, showing the (large amount of) inbound traffic. [1]

Interesting.

I live in West Menlo Park and often see planes overhead coming from the West or Northwest to the Bay. I didn't fully understand they may need to slot into a really long flow from the East and even the South.

The prior Philippine Airlines flight did get ILS due to a temporary gap. Lufthansa wasn't as fortunate. The guy on the video didn't think anyone was at fault based on his interpretation and the comments from his insider.

If I remember correctly, this Lufthansa flight usually arrives during the day, when the company permits visual approaches, but had a delayed departure, which is what let to their policy prohibiting visual approaches and the bad timing with the huge chain of other arrivals.

The flight's scheduled arrival time of 6:15 PM puts it well into darkness for much of the winter.

You know I thought you were right but apparently for that day sunset was 6:30PM.

Sure, but my point is that this flight arriving in darkness is not something they never would have considered when planning the route and setting company policies prohibiting visual approaches at night.

The article is incorrect (no surprise, considering it's a blog hawking credit cards that offer bonus frequent flyer miles written by people who are not aviators or controllers or anything related).

The issue isn't the visual approach. Lufthansa can do visual approaches at night. What they can't do is maintain visual separation from other aircraft at night. They mentioned this is exactly what isn't allowed for them. I think perhaps they could have been accommodated better at SFO, but the plane landed in Oakland and everyone survived so it worked out.

There as nothing in the Lufthansa plans or policies that would make this flight or landing impossible, unreasonable or unsafe. I imagine this landing at night is not a first either.

As the airport which assigned a landing slot. The airlines must apply for the slots and pay for them.

Ah I see, that makes sense.

In some places it's also illegal to have that many LI batteries in your house (looking at you, SF).

Might be a reference to ISO-5 mixed up with BSL (biosafety levels)

And potentially, despite Quora's dark-patterned and degenerating platform, some kind of value in the Quora dataset or the experience of building it?

It literally is a Q&A platform.

Quora data likely made a huge difference in the quality of those GPT responses.
