Learn PyTorch in a day. Literally.

My latest YouTube video is 25 hours, 36 minutes and 57 seconds long (actually a little over a day). And its sole purpose is to be a momentum builder, to help you learn PyTorch for deep learning. Fun fact: YouTube even puts a "1" for the number of days in

Listening or dancing?

Swimming or floating? Walking or standing still? Pissed off or laughing? Opposites give each other meaning. The listener’s ear hairs swing to the beat. And the dancer moves to the sound. Going through life floating down the stream. Or swimming along with events. My Mum used to teach swimming

Honour among thieves

We’re all guilty. Of one thing or another. Thieves know this. They see it in each other. They’re aware of their crimes. Though are all thieves criminals? Is someone who steals from one to give to someone less fortunate a criminal? Or is someone more fortunate who steals
