I have not seen the presentation yet. Still, I am willing to bet anyone a non-trivial amount of money that we do not see people flying next year.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding numbers, but if the first attempt was aborted then this is the second attempt?

> or great tools like OP's for setting up your own

I don't see how I was trashing OPs hard work. I'm simply pointing out that there's more that Medium provides than just a way to host a blog. No need to read so much negativity into it.

I honestly don't get posts like these. IMHO the main selling point of Medium is not that you can easily set up a blog, there's plenty of platforms that let you do that easily, or great tools like OP's for setting up your own. The point is that there is already a large audience you can reach with your posts, and Medium actively works to distribute your posts to people who would be interested in them.

The equivalent here would be a "switch from YouTube to your own video hosting site in a few minutes." I mean sure, you could, and it probably wouldn't be that hard, but that's not the point.

Hi, author here. Thanks for reading! Yea these are all great points and most are brought up in the article.

This is equivalent to claiming that if you randomly sample from the real number line the probability of sampling a natural number is 0, therefore natural numbers can't exist.

(Of course I doubt the author(s) were making these claims in all seriousness).

Agreed, the code is not meant to be a good solution.

This was actually my starting point for an implementation of an "evolution" based algorithm that I wanted to experiment with. I was surprised that completely random models were able to optimally solve the Cartpole environment so I thought I'd share :). Of course I don't expect this to be the case for more complex environments.

Yea not directly supported by Google, but being built by Google engineer(s).
