    Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements.
    RSI oscillates between zero and 100. Traditionally, and according to Wilder, RSI is considered overbought when above 70 and oversold when below 30.
    Signals can also be generated by looking for divergences, failure swings and centerline crossovers.

JupyterHub on AWS

EC2 Setup

• Log in to AWS
• Go to a sensible region
• Start a new instance with Ubuntu Trusty (14.04) - compute-optimised instances have a high vCPU:memory ratio, and the lowest-cost CPU time. c4.2xlarge is a decent choice.
• Set security group (firewall) to have ports 22, 80, and 443 open (SSH, HTTP, HTTPS)
• If you want a static IP address (for long-running instances) then select Elastic IP for this VM
• If you want to use HTTPS, you'll probably need a paid certificate, or to use Amazon's Route 53 to get a non-Amazon domain (to avoid region blocking).

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

Disclaimer: This piece is written anonymously. The names of a few particular companies are mentioned, but as common examples only.

This is a short write-up on things that I wish I'd known and considered before joining a private company (aka startup, aka unicorn in some cases). I'm not trying to make the case that you should never join a private company, but the power imbalance between founder and employee is extreme, and that potential candidates would

The Batch Normalization paper describes a method to address the various issues related to training of Deep Neural Networks. It makes normalization a part of the architecture itself and reports significant improvements in terms of the number of iterations required to train the network.

Issues With Training Deep Neural Networks

Internal Covariate shift

Covariate shift refers to the change in the input distribution to a learning system. In the case of deep networks, the input to each layer is affected by parameters in all the input layers. So even small changes to the network get amplified down the network. This leads to change in the input distribution to internal layers of the deep network and is known as internal covariate shift.

It is well established that networks converge faster if the inputs have been whitened (ie zero mean, unit variances) and are uncorrelated and internal covariate shift leads to just the opposite.

Raspberry Pi VPN Router

This is a quick-and-dirty guide to setting up a Raspberry Pi as a "router on a stick" to PrivateInternetAccess VPN.

Requirements

Install Raspbian Jessie (2016-05-27-raspbian-jessie.img) to your Pi's sdcard.

Use the Raspberry Pi Configuration tool or sudo raspi-config to:

Someone asked how to get the latlong from a specific road near a town on OpenStreetMap.

If you need to do it only once (e.g., you're about to go on a trip, and your GPS cannot find your destination city, but allows you to enter GPS coordinates), you can use Nominatim, OpenStreetMap's geocoding interface.

If you need to do it multiple times, in a programmatic manner, there are at least two ways to do that.

Note: I worked with OSM data a couple of years ago, but I don't have an OSM database on my local laptop right now, so some instructions will be a bit fuzzy. I do apologize in advance.
