This Japanese whiskey tastes like scotch which makes me simtaneously very happy and very sad.
H.265 vs H.264 Encoding time has a catch.
You’ll find on the internet that h.265 takes 10x longer to encode than h.264, but there’s a catch — Everyone’s comparing h.264 encoding times with specialized hardware vs h.265 on pure software.
Intel Quick Sync Video is Intel's brand for its dedicated video encoding and decoding hardware core. Quick Sync was introduced with the Sandy Bridge CPU microarchitecture on 9 January 2011, and has been found on the die of Intel products ever since. Intel Quick Sync Video - Wikipedia
AMD has something similar,
Video Coding Engine 3.0 (VCE 3.0) technology features a new high-quality video scaling.,[7] and will also support for High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC, H.265,[8] but As of May 2015, there are no announcements about VP9 video codec support. Video Coding Engine - Wikipedia
Something to note - I think Google’s Video Processor (VP9, VP8, etc) exists because it’s cheaper to develop their own compression format than pay royalties every year (as of 2015 it’s over $5M). It’s not just the $5M either, it’s the fact that the annual royalties can change to any arbitrary amount which would shackle YouTube (Google) into a pretty bad deal.
Q: How do I market myself?
My talks at Bitmaker tend to generate some amazing follow up emails on how someone could market themselves.
Here’s a recap of the latest email I’ve received on the subject:
Writer on social justice issues.
Trying to grow a new Facebook page
Bulk of time spent writing and book talks
Trying to find someone who wants to work on getting writing / first book out into the world.
Unpaid.
Any advice as to best ways to try finding a person who might be interested in this kind of job?
If you’re interested, DM me and I’ll provide more information and an introduction.
The larger question is how can someone be more visible on the internet and the short answer is to make sure you’re making the best content on the internet and that content is being seen by the relevant community.
The Long Answer:
Build a Blog and connect a Domain and Google Analytics to it.
There are a myriad of choices out there for a blog engine and they’re all pretty good. I personally use Tumblr because it’s free, simple and reliable. Medium is also a solid choice but since you can’t own the traffic, I wouldn’t send any additional users to it.
Don’t use Wordpress.
The time it takes to learn Wordpress tends to distract owners from producing actual value.
Plugins are usually poorly written and have no clear feedback loop when something goes wrong for someone.
Make sure you include the cost of hosting your Wordpress site into the mix.
Pipe the blog posts to marketing / communication channels that your community lives on like Medium, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, etc.
There are many tools that’ll help you do this like Zapier and IFTTT
This is important as people tend to treat things as Facebook OR Twitter, X OR Y, rather than, Facebook AND twitter. When you’re doing paid marketing, then the game changes because tracking headaches outweighs many of the benefits from multi-channel marketing.
Rough notes attached:
Either make Trading platforms run on GPUs now, or shorten the trading day to less than 1.5hrs, because we don’t have much of a choice when Moore’s law left the CPU in the gutter 10 years ago.First pic is how hard it is for this computer to “just” collecting data for 11 tickers.
I don’t remember buying the 16,777,216 Terabytes of storage plan...
Well.. Now you know!

Raw Essentials for a beginner Deep Learning Hacker
Friend is looking for a quick start into tensorflow / deeplearning. Below’s a quick start if you’re in a similar situation -
Learn Git (10 hrs)- If you want to collaborate, you need to know this, period. (was that redundant?)
https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-git
https://www.codeschool.com/courses/mastering-github
https://help.github.com/articles/git-and-github-learning-resources/
Setup Google Datalab (10 hrs) -
You’ll spend 10 hrs trying to configure your computer to run things locally only to realize that you’ll have to run this code in the cloud anyway.
Google has a native(ish) integration with Tensorflow.
This is a really good place to explore code since it’s Jupyter + cloud.
Go through the tutorials (100 hrs)
Go through some videos and the “live” programming sessions. (100 hrs)
Explore other people’s code (10 hrs)
The time estimates are generous and if you’re spending longer than that on any given section, then ask for help :)
I think I see a trend here.

Learn from Ruby to build your Startup.
In This Order, for the user:
Expressive
Fast
Flexible
Ruby (programming language) is expressive, fast to develop on, and there's no right way to do things. Why not build technology like it?
Most things we build fail on all accounts.
