The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Recurrent Neural Networks

Generating music, a novel or program source code character by character, simulating a photo sphere by interpolating between still photos, single frame superresolution: http://fastml.com/deep-nets-generating-stuff/ Illustrating what happens inside the mind of deep networks by depicting what it is dreaming about. Nice art. https://karpathy.github.io/2015/05/21/rnn-effectiveness/

Build a chatbot using deep learning

I always look forward to making natural language processing more intelligent without hardwired rules. I also like the condensed style of the video. Build a Chatbot - ML for Hackers #6 video by Sirajology http://www.wildml.com/2016/04/deep-learning-for-chatbots-part-1-introduction/

Gmail guessing your keyboard and text

I haven't noticed the keyboard layout switcher yet. How come it automatically contains exactly the three layouts which are relevant for me? I've found out earlier that both Search and Translate can correct your input if it makes more sense in some other popular layout, like Russian. What else is there under their sleeves?

Raincat, the incredible Haskell physics game

It was developed by CMU students, inspired by TIM, The Incredible Machine . Here's a short video clip of the cute game mechanics . I've discovered this pearl when browsing the Open Source Versions of The Incredible Machine wiki at project Butterfly Effect.

Open Source Ecology project

I've always adored open hardware and generally the concept of helping each other out. There's this project which gives you blueprints and recipes for living an environmentally responsible, though frugal life. Really makes you want to put down your keyboard and start agriculture work right away!  Open Source Ecology project at Wikipedia I'd need to review their current status, but generally, you can do cleanroom designs easily made of common household items. I'm not sure if they have the needed plans and documentation for such simple items under their umbrella, but a well structured collection of wiki links could also do the trick in these cases.
