This code can detect whether one song is a cover of another, and was eventually published at ICML 2018! — porterjamesj

Click to mine Etherium. Talk about skeuomorphism! — porterjamesj

I love the attention to detail in this website, even the font is custom designed! — porterjamesj

This paper details how Timnit and her team used Google Street View images of cars, deep learning, and neural networks to (accurately!) predict the demographics and political leanings of a neighborhood based on the types of vehicles detected there. — rachel

This is a clear, fun, and fascinating essay that explains how neural networks can get image classification woefully wrong. — nicholasbs

This algorithm tells you if a given directed graph is acyclic or not and simultaneously puts its vertices into the most convenient order for processing, all in linear time! — vaibhavsagar

It's soothing to watch the colors on the image gradually pour in. You can get a processing sketch that lets you try it with your own image here: https://www.openprocessing.org/sketch/397165. — porterjamesj

Pico-8 is a game design VM with hard restrictions on resources code length, color palette, etc). This forces tradeoffs that boil down a project to its essence, and in my opinion makes it more fun. The game was my first project with this machine - somehow it was both frustrating and enlivening at the same time. — aerw

Awesome talk on reconciling OOP vs FP — heime

This project started out as a fun exploration and ended up with a CVE number! https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-15298 — porterjamesj
