    Working at Linus Media Group seems like a ton of fun... but is it really? Let's ask the crew and see what they think...

    Benchmarks probably won't be able to show you it, but it just feels so much more streamlined. 
     
    You know when you click on the button to remove your usb, then you have to wait 30s to get the menu to show up?
    Once I got my SSD it basically just appeared immediately.
     
    Mostly just improving boot time and OS responsiveness, but holy crap are SSDs good.
     
    You may think that I'm fanboying over SSDs(yes I am) but it's justified. I can assure you.

    What do you mean it doesn't have any soundchip?
    I can practically guarantee that any motherboard made in the past 7 years has integrated sound somewhere (though the quality may differ a lot)

    Keep in mind, that's a "Store Credit" card, not an actual Credit Card.
     
    You can use that to only make purchases at NewEgg. If that's what the OP wants, then it'll work totally fine. But he won't be able to buy gas with it, for example.

    NoRomanBatmansAllowed reacted to SenpaiSilver in The under 100 line challenge!   
    I had to use a program to launch another program (that I wrote) and that sent commands to it.
    Since the STDOUT and STDERR were catched in a pipe and used by the host program, I wrote this script to create named pipe to do real time debugging.
    I just had to have it launched in another console.
    Then is my program I just had to open the named pipe like a regular file and close it.
    The code: http://pastebin.com/THNuTDDp
    This was for Linux, I don't think Windows has named pipes.

    NoRomanBatmansAllowed reacted to TheGhastModding in The under 100 line challenge!   
    I made an entire Neural Network in just 75 lines....ok, maybe not a network, but it does train a single sigmoid neuron.
    package theGhastModding.oneHundred.main; import java.nio.file.Files; import java.nio.file.Paths; import java.util.List; import java.util.Random; public class SigmoidNeuron { public static void main(String[] args){ try { List<String> lines = Files.readAllLines(Paths.get(args[0])); double[][] inSequence = new double[lines.size()][]; for(int i = 0; i < inSequence.length; i++){ String[] a = lines.get(i).split("#"); inSequence[i] = new double[a.length]; for(int j = 0; j < a.length; j++) inSequence[i][j] = Double.parseDouble(a[j]); } String[] expectedStrings = Files.readAllLines(Paths.get(args[1])).get(0).split("#"); double[] expectedSequence = new double[expectedStrings.length]; for(int i = 0; i < expectedSequence.length; i++) expectedSequence[i] = Double.parseDouble(expectedStrings[i]); int iterations = Integer.parseInt(args[2]); double trainingRate = Double.parseDouble(args[3]); double[] weights = new double[inSequence[0].length]; double bias = 1; double loss = loss(expectedSequence, pass(inSequence, bias, weights)); double[] prevWeights = copy(weights); Random random = new Random(); for(int i = 0; i < iterations; i++){ if(i % (iterations / 100 * 10) == 0) System.out.println("Iteration: " + Integer.toString(i) + "/" + Integer.toString(iterations)); for(int j = 0; j < weights.length; j++) if(random.nextBoolean()) weights[j] += (random.nextDouble() - 0.5d) * trainingRate; if(random.nextBoolean()) bias += (random.nextDouble() - 0.5d) * trainingRate; double newLoss = loss(expectedSequence, pass(inSequence, bias, weights)); if(newLoss < loss){ prevWeights = copy(weights); loss = newLoss; }else{ weights = copy(prevWeights); } } System.out.println("Done.\nGenerating outputs..."); double[] outputs = pass(inSequence, bias, weights); for(int i = 0; i < outputs.length; i++)System.out.println(Double.toString(outputs[i]) + ","); System.out.println(); } catch(Exception e) {e.printStackTrace();} } private static double loss(double[] expected, double[] output){ double tmse = 0; for(int i = 0; i < expected.length; i++){ tmse += Math.pow(expected[i] - output[i], 2D); } return tmse * (1d / ((double)expected.length * 2d)); } private static double[] copy(double[] original){ double[] copy = new double[original.length]; for(int i = 0; i < copy.length; i++){ copy[i] = original[i]; } return copy; } private static double[] pass(double[][] inputs, double bias, double[] weights){ double[] outputs = new double[inputs.length]; for(int j = 0; j < inputs.length; j++){ double v = 0; for(int i = 0; i < inputs[j].length; i++){ v += weights[i] * inputs[j][i] - bias; } outputs[j] = sigmoid(v); } return outputs; } private static double sigmoid(double z){ return 1 / (1 + Math.pow(Math.E, -z)); } } You use it as follows:
    1: Type your training inputs into a text document. Seperate inputs with new lines and numbers with #. Save it.
    2. Type the outputs you want the neuron to give your for the inputs in the previous step. Seperate the numbers with # and write it all in one line
    3. Start the program with the arguments like this: java -jar [whatever you named the .jar file after exporting] [path to file containing training inputs] [path to file containing wanted outputs] [number of training iterations you want it to do] [training rate]
    4. Wait for it to finish.
    5. At the end, it gives you the final outputs of the neuron for the given training inputs
    At the moment it doesn't save the neuron, so you can really only train it. But i have like 25 free lines, so i'll definitely update it.
    Example:
    I trained a neuron using this as training input:
    0#0 0#1 1#0 1#1 And this as the outputs i wanted:
    1#1#1#0 So we want the output to be 1 for the inputs of 0 and 0, 0 and 1, 1 and 0. And want it to be 0 for the inputs of 1,1.
    Which is basically a NAND gate. I trained it with a training rate of 1 over 100 iterations and got these outputs:
    0.9998635526179154, 0.9431409876976167, 0.949081101268096, 0.04048354437353434, which is very close to what i wanted. So it DOES work. Kinda useless until you can save and load the weights and the bias, but i'm working on it.
    Note: i know this uses what is probably the most slow and most ineficient training algorithm. But did you really expect me to program gradient descent in the 25 lines that were left?

    The Canadian used market is utter BS. I don't really think you'd be able to fit a good premiere system (let along a 4xxxk intel system) in your $400 budget.
     
    Probably the best deals you'll find are on kijiji, craigslist, or ebay.
