Where Money, Investing, and Technology Meet
When planning a new application, one of the first things to figure out is how your data will be structured. The way you organize and relate data will affect speed, flexibility, and how easy it is to make changes later. In this article, we’ll look at the key differences between SQL and NoSQL databases, especially […]
Back in lesson one, we looked at the main reason why we invest our money – which is to retain its spending power. By keeping our money in a cash savings account and retaining the interest it generates over time, we can hope to at least keep up with inflation. Hurrah! We’re not getting any […]
MySQL is currently the most widely used relational database in the world, and InnoDB is its most popular storage engine. InnoDB is renowned for its strong performance under high concurrency and large data volumes. This performance is closely tied to its sophisticated locking mechanisms. In total, InnoDB supports seven types of locks: Auto-Increment Locks Shared […]
Broadcom (AVGO 0.75%) stock was a winner on a fairly forgettable Monday for the market. During a session when the benchmark S&P 500 index could only eke out a less than 0.1% gain, Broadcom added nearly 1% to its share price. The company largely has a new research report to thank for that. Buy AI, […]
Contents In this article, we apply interpretability techniques to a reinforcement learning (RL) model trained to play the video game CoinRun . Using attribution combined with dimensionality reduction as in , we build an interface for exploring the objects detected by the model, and how they influence its value function and policy. We leverage this […]
Singapore-based Basel Medical Group (BMGL) announced plans to acquire $1 billion worth of Bitcoin (BTC) to strengthen its balance sheet and accelerate expansion across Asian markets. Basel also revealed that the proposed transaction is being negotiated with a consortium of institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals active in the crypto sector. Basel CEO Darren Chhoa said […]
This article is part of the Circuits thread, an experimental format collecting invited short articles and critical commentary delving into the inner workings of neural networks. Curve Detectors High-Low Frequency Detectors Contents Convolutional neural networks contain a hidden world of symmetries within themselves. This symmetry is a powerful tool in understanding the features and circuits […]
I was browsing a list of ETFs the other day, as you do, when I stumbled upon something I’ve been waiting a very long time for: a global small cap value ETF. Value stocks are the subset of risky stocks that are deemed ‘undervalued’ by investors. According to the value thesis, these ugly ducklings are […]
This article is part of the Circuits thread, an experimental format collecting invited short articles and critical commentary delving into the inner workings of neural networks. Naturally Occurring Equivariance in Neural Networks Curve Circuits Introduction Some of the neurons in vision models are features that we aren’t particularly surprised to find. Curve detectors, for example, […]
A lament regularly heard in school playgrounds across the land goes something like this: “Eeeeeuuugggh! Shuuuttttt up!” …followed by: “Girls are gross!” So proclaims generation after generation of little boys – only a few years before the hormones kick in and they spend the rest of their lives obsessing over women.
