Nico's blog is a personal blog at nicodjimenez.github.io about ai and programming. Since 2017, 4 different Hacker News readers have linked it 5 times, most often “Tensorflow sucks”. The last post was in 2017, but the archive is still widely read.
Too few sampled comments (3) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link these posts on machine learning engineering: one on the stages of an AI company and its flywheel, and one on the downsides of TensorFlow that people rarely discuss.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 3 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

What Hacker News says?
“One of my philosophies of building companies is the importance of velocity,” True. And the key to keep (increasing) velocity is momentum. I believe the fundamentals to that is infrastructure . Once you get to the "flywheel stage" of an AI company ( http://nicodjimenez.github.io/2018/01/25/stages.html ), experimentation becomes so easy that new models can be rolled out nightly.

HN discussionSiraj Raval covers PyTorch very well in a 5 min video ( https://youtu.be/nbJ-2G2GXL0 ). It comes down to design decisions, of which I'm not qualified to go into. This article made the front page last week, about the downsides to Tensorflow which people rarely talk about: http://nicodjimenez.github.io/2017/10/08/tensorflow.html And this interview with a Tensorflow engineer (10 mins) explains a little bit about those…
