Eat when you feel hungry.

Stop before you feel full.

How does it compare with, Spiking Neural Network? Both use vectors (but in different way) to encode more information

How about DBN? It is also a generative model but why now rarely used?

ML researchers following trends, like doing end-to-end CNN for whatever problems, and using this LSTM and that GRU and that latest architectures; in similar fashion like web devs picking and dropping javascript frameworks.

For me, this book's first chapters explained nicely about ML, MAP and Bayesian using real computer vision problems. The author included helpful visual aids (gaussian plots, contour plots, filters output, etc) http://www.computervisionmodels.com

This is a rather unusual book where it gives primer on probabilistic method that is actually applicable in non computer vision problems. It is Bayesian heavy and rarely touches neural networks; the book is released in 2012, the year deep learning boom started.

This. Until your side hustle income is roughly the same as your day job, don't quit.

Can elaborate more on that?

Currently I know Python and am using Django.

I am too lazy to learn Ruby. Is it worth it to learn Ruby just to use Rails?

How does it compare with Sony's e ink tablet with stylus? Seems too similar except it is made by startup

BeOS has extreme task scheduling to give smooth UI, for example if you run too many programs at once, BeOS network connection has noticeable stutter even if your UI seems slick enough

Bayesian machine learning for neural networks. Currently learning PyMC3 and Edward.
