Weekend Reading: Virtual Oncology, Waymo Data, and the Future of Programming
April 11, 2020 • #🧪 Virtual Oncology
A discussion among physicians on how oncology is changing and will likely continue to evolve in the wake of the coronavirus.

I’ve got a set of scans and a follow up this week, so will see how Mayo Clinic has adapted their approach in response to this crisis.
🚙 Using automated data augmentation to advance our Waymo Driver
Neat technical paper showing how Waymo and the Google Brain team are using data augmentation to expand training data volume.

From 2013, a typically genius talk from Bret Victor. Everyone should aspire to giving “evergreen” talks like this.
