What are you working on?

Machine learning question: I'm building a program for single layer perceptrons. I need data to train on, in the form of binary attributes in, 0 or 1

1101 -> 1
0010 -> 0
1111 -> 0 Etc. I don't know what words I'm looking for from [url]http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets.html[/url]
Could someone help with that, or suggest another source?

Its pretty simple to make it yourself, imagine AND or OR logic operations and make truth tables for them, just don't forget the bias node in those cases is 1.

        //Training data set for OR perceptron
        //A matrix of input node vectors ( including bias ) augmented with target values
        // { INPUT 0 (BIAS) , INPUT 1, INPUT NODE 2, OUTPUT 0 }
        final double[][] m_dataset = {
                {1, 0, 0, 0},
                {1, 0, 1, 1},
                {1, 1, 0, 1},
                {1, 1, 1, 1}
        };

You can imagine the data set ,for example, as a 2D point graph with a line separating the two clouds of points. Therefore your training data would be a set of those points and an expected output value for each of them, which corresponds to what group that point belongs to.

EDIT:

Or, if you are looking for something more complex, apparently this one is linearly separable:

It's times like this I'm reminded that my Java class could be worse. We're free to choose whatever IDE we want.

[QUOTE=Sidneys1;49615129]Just spent ~3hrs configuring MS-DOS 6 to play nice in VirtualBox. Got cpu idling, EMM386, audio, graphics (1024x768, 256-color), and networking (in theory) working. Getting everything to fit in memory is a bitch, lots of DRIVERHIGH and LH, still end up with "Out of memory" half the time, even when running edit, let alone windows.

My eventual goal is to write Windows 3.1 software. We'll see how that goes.
Almost got Mosaic installed, but Win32s crapped out. I might have to settle for Win 3.11, but I can't find any installation media. :/

Also, it turns out that Creative still have drivers for SoundBlaster 16 on MS-Dos 6/Windows 3.1 on their support site. :D[/QUOTE]

Just letting you know that [url=http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/]DJGPP[/url] is still actively maintained. They've ported GCC 5.3.0 to DOS. I was amazed when I found that out.

Made some progress on my game! Added a simple object inspection feature, added more functionality for cutscenes and shiz that nobody will ever notice when playing the game!

My first assignment right now for the java class is to setup BlueJ too, but I highly doubt profs would care what IDE you choose. :v:

I set the movement speed to 100x so I could quickly cross the map. Entertaining results were observed.

The effects help a lot, but even otherwise this actually seems pretty consistent in a way.
It would probably look horribly out of place anywhere else but in this game it fits really well, I think. It's also cheering me up, somehow.

idk how many of you are currently using chrome's VP9 codec, but I noticed that VP8 is still the default codec; at least on the machine I'm testing on. VP9 is available, but VP8 has the higher priority, and I can specifically select it for use in a peerconnection, but it's performing the same as VP8. Is it hardware accelerated or something? I'm not seeing any significant difference in bandwidth.

how many times do you think largely successful games with unique, interesting, or just damn cool mechanics spawned not from genius or intentional programming and design- but a bug or an unintentional effect of an unrelated testing mechanic has on the game itself?

just happened with how my game handles slow-motion now. Was never intentionally going to think of this but now I think it adds a complete new chapter of depth to the gameplay.

Yesterday I had a 4 hour long psychological evaluation at a company I applied for a job.

First two and a half hours:
- intelligence test with 70 tasks
- personality test with 182 questions (had to confirm the same thing in like 5 questions, instead answering one simple direct one)
- some weird "pick a personality that suits you more" personality test with 50-60 combinations of two.

After all that I was then interviewed by 2 psychology...students I think (they forgot to introduce themselves and I forgot to ask, and they looked younger than me) for almost an hour and a half.

And all that was after I was already interviewed for an hour by two engineers two days ago. And a programming test was on Monday.

going to a 48 hour game jam tomorrow, will post results

It is out of the ordinary to do a hour and a half long psychology test, done by psychology students. Personality tests are quite common, but an intelligence and interview by two psychologists I think can safely be called out of the ordinary.

You told Antonio to leave the company/interview because of the rigorous interview process, this implies it wasn't necessary. I said you should look up why FizzBuzz exists if you think that a rigorous interview process isn't necessary.

It is not too uncommon to see studies taking place in interviews. It provides a large sample size, with the incentive of a job. Especially if the subject of study revolves around employment and hiring.

Those are two rather separate parts of the process though, it can be rigorous without feeling like one long interrogation.

FizzBuzz does not exist to make an interview rigorous. It, along with other similar interview questions, tests your ability to solve a problem.

Basically, a good interview will gauge your personality to see if you will fit in with the team (without 4+ hours of psychological bullshit), they will test your ability to work through problems, etc. I have helped interview a few candidates for my workplace and it all boils down to:

A) Do you actually know what you say you know on your resume
B) Is your personality a good fit for the team
C) Are you able to, at a minimum, find ways to work through problems

This doesn't take longer than an hour in many cases.

[Richy13]

FizzBuzz exists to test you have the bare minimum programming knowledge to accomplish a simple task, no tester is going to think better of you because you can accomplish FizzBuzz but you best bet they aren;t going to bother going any further if you cant accomplish it
