- Bookish — open source tool that translates augmented markdown into HTML or latex.
- datastream.io — An open source framework for real-time anomaly detection using Python, ElasticSearch, and Kibana. See also the announcement.
- Audio Adversarial Examples — Given any audio waveform, we can produce another that is over 99.9% similar, but transcribes as any phrase we choose (at a rate of up to 50 characters per second). You say “potato,” I say “single quote semicolon drop table users semicolon dash dash.”
