AI / ML

Student's post about replicating OpenAI's GPT2 1.5B dataset, and is about to release it, and long explanation why. GPT2 generates very interesting samples. Humanity success is more because of collaboration / trust, than intelligence, and our ability has human to identify trustable information. If we have a system charged with detecting what we can and can’t trust, we aren’t removing our need to invest trust, we are only moving our trust from our own faculties to those of the machine.
A book praised by HN [1].
Amazing page detailing the mathematics behind gaussian processes.

New word invented and defined by an AI, using GPT-2.
Suggested on HN.

Mathemathics

Correlation is not causation.
  • Tangente n°182, p34-35, "Les excès de la corrélation".
Nous allons vers un changement épistémologique majeur. S'en remettre à ce type de calcul traduit un renoncement aux ambitions de la raison moderne, qui liait les phénomènes à leurs causes. Ces ambitions de la raison permettaient d'envisager la prévention, d'agir sur les causes pour changes les effets. Au lieu de cela, on se dirige vers un système de pures corrélations. [...] On ne cherche plus à comprendre l'environnement, on cherche à le prédire. Notre rapport au savoir change, mais aussi notre rapport au monde: on se focalise davantage qu'auparavant sur les risques. "Voir et comprendre" sont supplantés par détecter et prévenir". On passe d'une civilisation du signe, qui était porteur de sens, à une civilisation du signal, qui est une donnée qui ne signifie rien en soi..
How to cut fairly a cake in three (and more) pieces.
The evolution of trust — a fun lecture for understanding game theory in a broader context.
Interesting post about big numbers, including Ackerman series (tetration, etc), and Busy Beaver function (maximum number of steps than a valid n-state turing machine would execute -- that is roughly the execution time of the most complex machine excluding non-halting ones).

Many nice quotes:
  • "I no longer think about code lines as an asset to be accumulated, but rather as an expenditure to be avoided."
  • Edsger Djikstra: If we wish to count lines of code, we should not regard them as “lines produced” but as “lines spent”: the current conventional wisdom is so foolish as to book that count on the wrong side of the ledger.
  • Bill Gates: "Measuring programming progress by lines of code is like measuring aircraft building progress by weight."
  • Old military saying: “Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast”
  • A mom / Lewis Caroll: "The hurrie(de)r I go, the behinder I get!", aka "more haste, less speed".
  • Motorcycle racing: "a fast rider has slow hands".
Explain a three-pass technique to read scientific paper (1st intro and conclusion and sub-section titles, 2nd read deeper but skip details like proof but pay attention to graphs, 3rd virtually redo the paper).
Some advices on how to accept and deal with breaks. Maintain a continuous context in notes (at least every 30min). Focus on one current task, other are distraction. Current task must be clearly identified. Plan next task using negative priority (don't include every task, only consider the one with worst consequence if not included).

Second, write out an explanation of the concept, as if explaining to a layman. Then pinpoint gaps into the explanation, and go back to source material, and repeat previous step. Finally, put the editor's hat, and rewrite the whole (filter wordy / confusing / complex language).

Game

Detailed explanation on how to make a fast tile-based game engine. Tricks used:
  • Use LEA instruction, most efficient to move bytes, but requiring modifying the stack pointer.
  • Pre-process the tiles to cancel effect of fast rendering loop
  • Reverse display order to cancel graphical corruption when interrupt occurs and load registers on the stack.
Detailed explanation on 2D game optimization for a Super-Mario-like game. Various tricks are explained about fast scrolling, fast sprite handling...
  • Background is generated by a LEA-field, basically a sequence of code generated by the game engine, and when executed, draw pixel to the screen buffer. The LEA-field is organized into sequence of code, each drawing a given scanline.
  • Scrolling is obtained by a different offset in the scanline.
  • When scrolling, the code in leftmost/rightmost columns of the LEA-field must be updated. This update is done by a code, which is also generated by the engine. This column-update code is generated to avoid duplicate register loading (typ. occurs when the scene has many duplicated pixels, like a blue sky).
  • Sprite is also generated by a code, generated from sprite data.

Languages

A Scheme/Lisp language.
A language for pipe-based programming. Amazing master thesis, clearly written!
A Python library to write games with zero boilerplate.

Design

  1. Contrast — Elements of your design (colour, size, weight, style) should be either exactly the same, or significantly different.
  2. Consistency — Make sure similar elements appear in similar ways.
  3. Occam's Razors (aka Reduce Visual Noise) — The fewer the number of elements you use in your design, the better.
  4. Space — The way things are positioned sends a meta-level message about their meaning. This deals with proximity (= relatedness), with negative space, and with importance and order.
What’s faster, incrementing a std::vector of uint8_t or of uint32_t? This is analyzed carefully, with surprising results. It turns out that uint8_t is much slower because of pointer aliasing issues that prevent the compiler to use vector instructions. To fix it, one much avoid any reference to std::vector data in the loop:
for (auto i = v.begin(), e = v.end(); i != e; ++i) {
    (*i)++;
}
Or another solution is to use keyword __restrict.
"Good design is as little design as possible." - some German motherfucker
Google product director: "obvious always win." Example: explicit bottom navigation menu better than hamburger button; segmented control menu better than toggle menu; text better than icon. Also, copying does not guarantee obvious design.
Accessibility rules require a minimum contrast ratio of 4.5+ for small text and 3.0+ for text. It can be very difficult to design a color palette that fits these requirement, while still keeping rich and vivid colors. Color systems like RGB or HSL don't integrate human color perception. In this post, authors explained how they designed their own tool to define the best palette with accessible colors.

Comes from the definition of distance in the Minkowski spacetime, ds=sqrt((c.dt)^2 - dx^2 - dy^2 - dz^2), where c is the speed of massless particle. ds=0, invariant for all observers, gives that speed c is a constant. If an observer does not move in space coordinates, the speed he computes gives that he's moving at speed c in time. See also HN, also speaking of four-vectors, and in particular the four-velocity, which has always a constant magnitude (equal to the speed of light).

An interesting approach on how we make sense of the world. First we have first and second order facts (1st = immediately relevant to a narrative, high = influence an opinion about subject). Then we have first and second order thinking (1st = correlations, ie. given a fact what argument can be made via correlation, high = causation, ie why facts emerge). Then we have four options: 1st fact and 1st thinking = Utility, 1st fact and high thinkng = Wisdow, high fact and 1st thinking = manipulation, high fact and high thinking = conspiracy theory.
