How much math knowledge do you need for machine learning and deep learning? Some people say not much. Others say a lot. Both are correct, depending on what you want to achieve. There are plenty of programming libraries, code snippets, and pretrained models that can get help you integrate machine learning into your applications without having a deep knowledge of the underlying math functions. But there’s no escaping the mathematical foundations of machine learning.

They sound similar, but they’re not.

An arc, like an arch, is bent. The strength comes from that bend.

But the arc doesn’t have to be supported at both ends, and the arc is more flexible. The arc can take us to parts unknown, yet it has a trajectory.

An arch, on the other hand, is a solid structure. It’s a bridge that others have already walked over.

Our life is filled with both. We’re trained on arches, encouraged to seek them out.

But an arc, which comes from “arrow,” is the rare ability to take flight and to go further than you or others expected.

It’s 2020, we’re in the midst of a global pandemic and in and out of lockdown, Kanye West (with Elon Musk’s blessings) tried to run for president, and the word ‘cryptocurrency’ is no longer a niche reserved only for people within the tech sphere. As we debate the future of money, the usability of Decentralized Finance Applications and how bizarre it is that influencers can now create their own cryptocurrencies to gift or sell to their followers, fintech startups continue to emerge all over the place.  While many of these startups have come up with big ideas that they feel…

Despite a string of prematurely canceled trials, the UK‘s Transport Committee says that escooters should be legalized in the country. There’s an important caveat, which I think no one will disagree with: they should be prohibited for use on pavements, BBC reports. Escooter trials have been operating around England over the past few months, and general sentiments are that they aren’t going all that well. As seems to always be the case when escooter trials begin, people misuse them, they get parked in places they shouldn’t be, and they become the focus of conversation because of rule-breaking riders.

Last month, a bunch of users tweeted about how Twitter‘s image cropping algorithm seems to have a bias towards fair-skinned people. When users posted uncropped images containing both light and dark-skinned people, the social network’s algorithm often showed the light-skinned person in the preview. Trying a horrible experiment… Which will the Twitter algorithm pick: Mitch McConnell or Barack Obama? pic.twitter.com/bR1GRyCkia — Tony “Abolish (Pol)ICE” Arcieri 🦀 (@bascule) September 19, 2020 At that time, Twitter said, while its algorithm was tested for bias, it will conduct further investigations to resolve the issue.

This is not good for people’s health in the long term and will require companies to actively encourage their employees to take time off when necessary. Working from home allows employees to balance caring responsibilities and other non-work commitments with work demands, as well as reducing commute times and decreasing job-related…

Not content to just launch new hardware this week, Google today revealed a few updates to Maps that should make the platform a bit more useful for getting around — and a little more futuristic, too. Specifically, Google is expanding the augmented reality (AR) capabilities within Maps. Last year, Google introduced Live View, a feature that used AR to guide you around a city. Soon, the company will roll out a new feature that will help you be able to visualize the location of specific businesses and landmarks — how far they are, and the direction you need to travel…
