tldr: The ubiquitous isotropic Gaussian prior for generative models doesn't make sense / doesn't work, which motivates work on priors. At NIPS, Dawen Liang mentioned Hoffman & Johnson's ELBO surgery paper offhand while talking about tuning KL divergences, and it's very interesting, so I thought I'd go over it. It's very clearly written, so I won't go into any of the derivations, but instead offer my interpretation. Motivation I worke....

Diving deeper and deeper into machine learning and neural networks I can’t help but notice how some of the techniques there are metaphors for what happens in our brains. After all, our brains a just a lot more sophisticated and larger versions of the deep computer networks that do computer vision, or predict clicks on ads. When I first grokked backpropagation, I was in awe about how elegant it is. An iterative approach to computing the pa....

trivago just made filtering faster and more accessible, but why and how?

Filtering is an important way to find what you're really looking for, so why should we be okay with some users not being able to access them? We're not, so we did something about it.

A summary of my notes taken while reading Programming Phoenix . Ch.1 The layers of phoenix, the endpoint is where the HTTP connection contacts phoenix, from there it goes to the router which directs a request to the appropriate controller, passing through a series of pipelines. Pipelines chain functions together to handle tasks that span across multiple controllers, such as browser requests vs API requests. connection |> endpoint |> rou....

At Curalate, our service and API traffic is fairly tightly coupled to e-commerce traffic, so any increase is reasonably predictable. We expect an increase in request rate towards the beginning of November each year, with traffic peaking at 10x our steady rate on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Why Load Test? Curalate works directly with retail brands to drive traffic to their sites. The holiday shopping period is the most important time of....

I've encountered my first bit of rust dependency hell. I'm trying to use a combination of nom v3.2.1 (a parsing combinator framework) plus nom_pem v1.0.3 (which uses nom to parse the PEM file format) plus der-parser v0.4.4 (which uses nom to parse DER data). This would almost work EXCEPT der-parser has the following line in it's Cargo.toml: nom = {version = "^3.1", features = ["verbose-errors"]} I haven't used feature toggling at all ye....

As Jane Street grows, the quality of the development tools we use matters more and more. We increasingly work on the OCaml compiler itself: adding useful language features, fine-tuning the type system and improving the performance of the generated code. Alongside this, we also work on the surrounding toolchain, developing new tools for profiling, debugging, documentation and build automation.

Hackathons! That’s where you feel super excited about creating something interesting, or useful, or just entertaining. They are a great way to encourage creativity and teamwork. Recently, trivago hosted a Python Hackathon in collaboration with the Python Usergroup Düsseldorf. The event was a full success!
