This is exactly on point, for any kind of teaching. And reviewing the 'basics' can help situation information in context you already know.

Ironically, I often use a paging metaphor here, for stuff that I learned, but haven't thought about recently... going over something again to refresh my memory is just swapping that page back in.
And some of those articles were from 1998. It can take a long time for a bubble to burst. I remember hearing about the housing bubble in 2001. It even made the front cover of the Economist in 2005.

As Keanes said "The market can stay irrational for longer than you can stay solvent".
Of course. Just imagine a country such as Saudi Arabia, where many of the things we consider "normal" in more developed societies are crimes, often punished by death. If Saudi Arabia gets to have perfect surveillance and law enforcement, that society will never reach our modern standards for a developed society. Only those that will be able to bribe their way out of it will survive.
Hell yes, fuck my country up! His words, not mine! I'd subscribe just because of that phrasing.
"Ignorance is bliss."

The older I get, the more wise I get, the more I believe in the above statement. As in, not having the mental capacity or brain-power to muse over inequities both in personal and worldly topics is a less emotionally affective position to be in. I grew up in a protestant Christian faith, and while I don't actively participate, I do reflect often on some of the teachings (mostly the Beatitudes) and literature, and only in my 20s did I realize that "Eating the apple from the tree of life" is pretty much a metaphor for our evolutionary development into consciousness, of "knowing right and wrong" as a species.

Intelligence? It's a curse as much as it is a blessing. Folks can disagree with that assertion if they'd like. From my personal studies in literature and philosophy though, I think it's a pretty common understanding amongst a certain tier of thinkers. My apology if I come off sounding a little elitist, but intelligence is a bell curve, and, to quote the famous Demotivational poster, "Not everybody gets to be an astronaut when they grow up."[0]

You are not mentioning the whole drill'n'bass era/subgenre.

4 minutes in... there were a few people/groups that did this style for a while. Aphex Twin was the most popular artist that crossed into this territory, but Venetian and others took it a bit more "purely" into the drill area.

Sonically and technically, compared to the black MIDI thing, it's more open-ended.

The limitations to this area are the focus on percussive elements vs. tearing apart other pieces of the palette with as much care.

What MongoDB got Right
First impressions: feels rather unpolished

- text is too light and hard to read. Color contrast between text and background could be higher.

- up/down arrows do nothing

- plus button shows login dialog, but you can't register from there

- TP/EX/DE buttons are not in same order as their respective sections

- missing alt text on icon buttons, so it's not clear what they do (or rather, what they're supposed to do, since some do nothing)

- like button shows wrong cursor on hover

- buttons in settings dialog do nothing

- example has no code highlighting when present
I'm trying to keep up with new technologies, and it's a challenge.

Right now, I usually pick one thing I want to learn and then focus on it for a few days to a few weeks at a time.

The problem is finding time. Usually anytime I think I'm bored, I immediately get up and start reading/doing tutorials/etc on whatever I want to learn.

It takes some discipline, but once you start, it's pretty easy to make a habit of it.
That is right - so the idea is that the project owners don't have to be the only ones to maintain the documentation, instead the users can contribute as well. The same project hosted at different places all point to the same place in the database. We also plan to add version control.
The author only mentioned STARTTLS as the way to secure SMTP. However, there are at least two other ways to do it:

* TLS Wraper

* Secure Tunnel

And Amazon Web Services Simple Email Service accepts all three approaches. Granted the latter two may not be supported by a lot of providers, but hey is that the same thing with browsers securities? We deprecate old MTAs and old versions of them progressively. Just my two cents.

Review: The iPad Pro and the Death of a Metaphor
Working through the Ogre issues on OS X is like a rite of passage, I thought?

I tried multiple times to contribute OS X fixes to the Ogre code base. They're not hard things --

1. Use SDL not OIS.

2. The symlinking is broken.

3. Link the frameworks properly.

There was one more thing, I think. Just minor issues that probably have crept into the codebase because no one is able to contribute the fixes.

It's Ogre. It's not OS X.

The software industry in U.S. did have a similar experience 5-15 years ago when "outsourcing" is the fashion.

There's another nice Mozart connection to unplayable music in the story of the bet between Mozart and Haydn, where the former bet the latter he could write a piece of music Haydn't couldn't play. It required striking a single note in the middle of the keyboard when the hands were very far apart.

Haydn tried it and failed. Mozart struck the key with his nose.

From the OP:

> The entire x86 computer architecture is living on borrowed time. It’s a dead platform walking. The future belongs to ARM, and Apple’s A-series SoC’s are leading the way.

> The A9X didn’t come out of nowhere. Watching Apple’s A-series chips gain on x86 over the past five years, we’ve all been speculating about whether Apple might someday start using ARM chips in MacBooks. As of now, it’s only a question of whether they want to.

The most interesting point of this review in my opinion. x86 is hampered by backwards-compatibility. Could anyone comment on some of the more technical CPU architecture reasons for this? Do A64 CPUs have potential to outpace x86_64 processors in power consumption and performance simply because of the architecture?

The local granularity of date/time creates a problem of validity. The only thing that can be clear is when the data was written to the "scraping" system. With the asynchronous nature of the web (e.g. caching) we can't even really be sure when it was read for important definitions of "read".

What we're seeing an issue with valuations and investments. TechCrunch just did a really good piece on how a raise of $150M gave a $6B valuation with a preference that guaranteed a 20% return on investment to the Series E investors (at the cost to the early investors).

http://techcrunch.com/2015/11/10/squares-s-1-of-ratchets-and...

So what we're seeing is that people are starting to re-think valuations in the face of these preferences.

I am reminded of those systems which cannot accept that a person (perhaps of Indonesian origin) has only one name. Or that cannot accept that a last name has an apostrophe in it. Or that cannot accept a name with a space in it.

Is there a resource of every weird case in people's names, that is publicly available and of modest size, that could be used for software testing? It would be nice if people like Mr. Null could add their name to such a list, and it became generally known among software developers.
Thanks for the example. I was thinking of language features, which are mostly cheap (type inference, move constructors, constexpr, initializer lists, range-based for loops).

But it may indeed be that some standard library extensions are not well-optimized yet.
Basically, yes. I think better examples though would be:

- A rapid increase in states requiring HS students to complete some of their classes online in order to save money.

- Folks being unable to get treatment for all sorts of health conditions and mental illnesses.

- The prison system not providing adequate job training or rehabilitation.

- The costs of college education increasing while the quality of that education decreases.

Are Internet startups the best way to solve all of these problems? Probably not. But in each of these cases startups are going to rake in the bulk of the money, if only because they're going to be the only game in town.

Well that's what trade deals are for.

You can convince a subset of those "globally competitive people" to participate by vowing to buy their services over those of their competitors. They lessen their risk of finding work and you get a larger economy.

You don't need everyone to participate, just a big enough economy.

Also one distinct advantage over a country doing the same thing, is that you can choose who can participate or not. So once you reach the level of adequate manufacturing for a certain good you can restrict participation of people offering the same service/skill.
>I'm not sure that it does to be honest. UI effects can be disabled on older machines.

Yes, but UI effects are just the tip of the iceberg of new features. Some depend on the specific hardware capabilities (e.g. bluetooth being present, or even specific version), others involve several components working in tandem and depend on increased speed of later machines, others require specific cpu/gpu support, etc.

For big LSTMs and long-ish sequences, the intermediate gradients can take up a huge amount of memory - often more than the model parameters themselves. In my experience it is mostly big LSTMs that need the 12GB+ GPUs. You can reduce the batch size to help this a bit, or train using trucated BPTT but RNN training is already a slow, sequential business.

Of course, there are no clear wins (generally, losses) in computation by scaling RNNs horizontally on GPUs - but sometimes you really do need more than 12GB.
