Religious wars have been a cornerstone in tech. Just think about the endless talk about IDEs. Some people prefer VisualStudio, others use IntelliJ, again others use plain old editors like Vim. Theres anever-ending debate, half-ironic of course, about what your favorite text editor might say about your personality. Similar wars seem to be flaring up around PyTorch and TensorFlow. Both camps have troves of supporters. And both camps have good arguments to suggest why their favorite deep learning frameworkmight be the best....

Hold on to your scorebooks, the future of baseball stadiums was just unveiled in Cleveland. Major League Baseball has an attendance issue. Younger people are not watching baseball as much let alone coming out to games to watch it in person. Since 2007 the average attendance per game has gone from 32,700 to 26,600. Don’t care about baseball? And I guarantee this will be the trend for stadiums around the country over the next five years....

People forget that MULTIPLE analysts had the Colts as a dark horse Super Bowl team. The Colts offensive line was supposed to begood. They had a formidable defense. We had (arguably) the best running back in the NFL. But holy shit did things go downhill fast. There were so many ridiculous Colts moments this year that I had completely forgotten about. A game where the Colts were 15-point favorites. A game they needed to win to make the playoffs....

At the same time, that’s not my problem. The Celts were without Marcus Smart and Robert Williams, two starters themselves. Shit happens over the course of an NBA season, especially in January. Thankfully, that it what we witnessed. They began their second half the exact same way they spend their first half, by winning. Once again they were asked to execute on both ends down the stretch, and once again they delivered....

Also how much January stinks. Here’s the AFC questions: 1- Is Lamar Jackson playing? Rapoport added this caveat: “Other people who have watched him are not so sure.” The Ravens, even with Lamar healthy created a hobby of blowing leads. So I personally thought they had a real solid team, but something was just off. Now likely without Lamar? 2- Is this the best young group of Quarterbacks in the playoffs ever?...

The UKsspacesector is searching for positives after the first orbitallaunchfrom westernEuropeended in failure. The mission appeared to have started smoothly. At around 22:00 GMT on Monday, theBoeing 747 carryingVirgin Orbits LauncherOne rocket successfullytook-off in southwest England. The jet then climbed around 35,000ft before releasing the rocket over the Atlantic Ocean. But then, disaster struck. We appear to have an anomaly that has prevented us from reaching orbit.

It’s recently a New Year and it’s that time many people begin their list of resolutions. Back in 2020, my resolution was to finally get my health in check. As many of you know I was out of control at 340 plus pounds. So I set out to change it and did. I’ve told that story before. The schedule I did was 20-4 meaning I eat 4 hours out of the day from 3pm-7pm EST....

And the more co-worker sex partners a person has: … that number will increase exponentially. And Officer Hall’s situation is, of course, no exception. Because almost lost in all this, is the fact this law enforcement professional is married. At the time, Hall was a candidate and had taken her clothes off along with the other female. ‘Halls husband got upset,’ the report reads. He sent that photo to Hall.'...

Part 2 of 2 of the Hawaii Swing has arrived. You do now.) As evidenced by those winning scores, it’s not a terribly challenging golf course. Now with that said, don’t misconstrue these two courses to be all that similar. The differences go beyond just Kapalua being a par 73 and Waialae being a par 70. They’re stylistically very different as well. Kapalua is extremely hilly with massive fairways and greens....

The NFL Playoffs seem to always deliver. January is essentially 31 days locked in your house avoiding the cold. It’s dark at 5pm. There’s not much going on. Not much to get excited about, and did I mention it’s cold ? The NFL Playoffs deliver. Put this into perspective … there will be 13 more NFL games this season. That’s less than the last 4-5 weeks of the season on a Sunday....

The night that college basketball starts to take over the TV. Sure, NFL playoffs are starting but that’s only on the weekends (and a Monday night). But the rest of the week is all college hoops. And let me welcome you by saying this season already doesn’t make any goddamn sense. They all have legit shots at making the NCAA Tournament, even Pittsburgh. That’s probably where we need to start....
