This Mark Twain quote is mind-blowingly fantastic: “At times he may indulge himself with a long one, but he will make sure there are no folds in it, no vaguenesses, no parenthetical interruptions of its view as a whole; when he has done with it, it won't be a sea-serpent with half of its arches under the water; it will be a torch-light procession.”
Tesla started putting out super chargers in 2011, even in 2013 it was anemic and nothing outside of their traditional bastions, from mid 2013 is when they ramped things up and have currently put out there. So 2 years. On Auto-Pilot front Audi, Volvo and Mercedes(these guys have a truck on auto-pilot) are out there and they are not lagging in pure technical terms, as I said deployment wise they have to do the ground work. It does not matter CHAdeMO is supercharger a 20-30 minute fast charging is NOT ideal(too much wait and too much screwing the battery), and people should be looking for better solutions.

Peter Arnell is known for this, just search his name on google and you'll get lots of colorful articles. The Arnell Group was also behind the Tropicana redesign disaster [1].

Disclaimer, I work for Microsoft in China but I don't know much about this, definitely not involved in it!

Why it is in Chinese probably has more to do with the interests of the producers (China Bing, researchers here also) and the consumers they are targeting than with respect to any tech limitations.
This is shameful and horrifying. How are these SAM speech restrictions even legal? Do these apply widely throughout the corrections system, or are they really mostly abused in "terror" cases?

I am about to finish a more limited implementation of this idea for Android Wear smartwatches and Windows. It works by measuring bluetooth signal intensity (rssi).

You basically picked up on two words out of the entire comment, then misquoted me (I did not call it cruel)...

My point is simple, you're choosing to be rude, and that is fine, completely your choice (especially given what you've stated about what it's like where you live). But that reaction is not necessarily warranted for the person that gets 1 call every few months from a telemarketer.
The disadvantage of NoSQL is that you do the migration in your app rather than in your database. This requires all programs that touch the database to know about every historic migration that ever happened, since there is still data in the database that uses the old schema.

With a SQL database, there is one source of truth: the current schema. It is not necessary to maintain historic information about all previous versions of the schema in every program that uses the database; they only have to know about the current version.

Telsa appears to have been overpriced for quite some time. The stock kept rising based on emotional reactions to videos of falcon doors, robot recharging arm, hypertube test tracks, and reusable space craft landing. If Elon Musk can make all that stuff happen surely he'll find a way to drive the stock up to $500? But even Musk was saying the stock was overpriced. And now it is correcting.
When I sit next to my friends kids or my nephews the conversations they have are far more nonsensical when looking at one page of chat. And then they are well educated; there are examples of chat and sexting in particular which look like gibberish altogether.

I would catch this bot out on the first line because of the grammar: people not only use shortcuts for everything (I was asked to check a resume and it contained u instead of you.....), they also do not consider grammar or syntax: their there ther tere ter tr are the same thing etc. Not sure if all of this goes for Chinese as well but in English just spouting nonsense using those rules will get you somewhere. It also helps most chats are with many at the same time (the company driver in China was chatting with 30+ people on wechat simultanously, rapidly switching between users), people generally do not remember or read context for that reason (my younger 20something colleagues some of which are brilliant, when something scrolled of the screen and you refer to it they ask what you are talking about).

The problem is that people on HN want Einstein level convo with perfect syntax and grammar while most people, if you do not tell them it is not a human, would call this chatbot intelligent. They just need to make it more human like short attention span (a 10 minute continues chat is unlikely as are immediate answers) and ofcourse not telling people upfront it is a bot...

That is chat bots: I would think a Facebook Britain First bot would be more feasible; I do not think anyone would ever guess it would be a bot. Markov chains with some heuristics won't do (much) worse than people like [1].

It is also about the vague defition of AI; even if it can learn then a lot of people would not call it AI anymore. Seems for many AI needs the be AGI to really be considered.

Considering nicovideo is anti-establishment media (it's owned by Kadokawa, which is an underdog media company with strong subculture roots) and that 2chan "summary sites" double as news sources for the anti-establishment these days, the association seems apt.
The current trend seems to be to put a human behind a web API.

I guess when AI is sufficiently advanced, those humans can be seamlessly replaced by computers.

LinkedIn does have some non-recruiter customers, though. Like everyone else in the game, has also realized they could make a few bucks off the supply side.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something. Don't you have to give them your gmail password or some other Google auth? That doesn't seem easy to do accidentally.
Interesting that you feel that. The article mentions nothing about Google's Knowledge Graph. I don't have any privileged insight into Google, just the same surface data as the rest of you all - but I would say that, if anything, Google's Knowledge Graph can fit with _both_ a rules engine strategy and a machine learning one.

How is Google going to "organise the world's information" unless it has a model of how all the facts in the world line up? That model is the Knowledge Graph. How does Google intend to map queries that it has never seen before to pages in its vast index? With the help of the Knowledge Graph and natural language processing and machine learning.

I'm going to try to articulate something here that I've not fully worked out but that I'm sort of intuiting so cut me some slack for the next paragraph :)

People keep banging on about machine learning and the impact that it is having. This is undeniable. But we can see even from AlphaGo that a hybrid approach that combines artificial neural nets with some sort of symbolic system outperforms neural nets on their own. For AlphGo that symbolic system is tied to the mechanics of the game of Go. For internet search that symbolic system is a generalised knowledge graph.

Do you get what I mean? I'd love to hear what others think …
No because the human doesn't expect that he might be talking to a machine. If he knew there was a 50% chance it was a machine then he'd find ways to recognize it - like its inability to follow the conversation at all.

That's not a fit issue. They just don't want to work for that wage. Find someone who will. Why do they have to ask? If you're really interested in efficiency, state it upfront, atleast the lower and upper bounds.
Pretty much everything is a lot cheaper to fly than the B-2 (by a wide margin) but I wonder about the B-52. It's such an anomaly. It does kind of seem like the last plane we still fly that was made to be a big, dumb bomb truck, which might be a pretty useful role with the new smart bombs, laser designation of targets, and so on.

But keeping all that old hardware flying...
In that very specific example, you are right -- the benefits are pretty minimal (mostly just the deserialization). However, you're actually able to represent the relationship between those two models however you want, but still deal with relationships between types, and not what the exact join clause is.

Additionally, SQL is extremely hard to compose. In my applications, I very rarely have some specific one off query that I want to run, I have multiple predicates that I want to be able to mix and match easily. String munging is fragile, while this actually lets me build reasonable domain abstractions.

To your final point "Unless this has some huge performance gain over rust-postgres"

Diesel performs 33% faster than rust-postgres, and will be competitive with if not faster than ideomatic C.

That advice doesn't apply at all when you are going through a recruiter who is or plays dumb: "I just need you to fill in this form so we can proceed. [I don't care if if makes you mistrust me and management, and you come in on Day 1 suspicious and with low morale]" Big companies, at least, have a relatively streamlined process to tilt the negotiations in their favor as much as they can systemically.

Just curious, what do you mean, be prepared to move? Did you tell the landlord, "I will move if you don't give me a 10% decrease in rent"? I'm finding it hard to believe that in a market like NYC where the rents are sky high generally increasing, you could get such a discount.

It also depends on the kind of property taxes prevalent in the states. e.g. in California, property taxes are set at the time of purchase, while in Texas they are reassessed every year. So, my landlord (in Texas) basically increases the rent to cover for the increase in property taxes.
Nokia N900? Underpowered, but you can run Debian in a chroot.
Two things:

1) I invested when it was $17/share when they went IPO. It was a gamble, but a gamble I was willing to make.

It's interesting to hear jQuery being criticised for being at to low an abstraction level. I thought the hip thing to do was to revisit the stone age: http://youmightnotneedjquery.com

If jQuery is low level, what is high level? SproutCore? Cappuccino? Angular 1? These high-level frameworks have a bright future ahead.
For one thing, I believe SELECT * is generally considered harmful (I certainly view it as such), and without wildcard you would need to update the query regardless of the method you use to construct it.
It's technically for the Republic of Serbia. I only chose it because .io was taken by a python library (which I wish I'd checked before deciding on the name)

We (https://flair.co) have an intranet solution but we 100% need to have a phone home to connect to others that don't have an intranet solution. Unfortunately its hard to take the internet out of the internet of things.

Also note that truly smart IoT devices need to operate on a data feed from devices in the home, devices outside of the home, and third party services (utility rates fluctuate over time for instance). They need to take raw data from these sources, 'debounce' or filter them into actionable events and then go ahead and move an actuator or make an adjustment to something. This is really hard to do all within a local network unless you have an onsite server farm and even then, you need for this onsite server farm to be able to fetch the code to run each device's task.

On the surface, an intranet of things sounds great, but every company is going to be making every device connect to the internet - there will not just be one that makes everything and everybody is not going to converge on a distributed cluster that runs in the home. The only practical way for large numbers of devices to integrate, in particular, integrate with deeper intelligence, is through the cloud.
Thanks, I suspected it was more of a market than technical reason; since I know very little about the chinese language I thought i'd ask.
I'm not sure, but I doubt that there are laws against not charging unauthorized batteries. I am fairly sure that they could be held liable for any damages caused by fires, etc caused by trying to charge a poorly-made battery, and that you cannot release that liability with any kind of boot-up message or contract.
This is great. From my experience a lot of the pain in UI comes from thinking the backend model will just plug into the front-end model. It is evident that UI models need to have a layer for processing the data unless you are coding a trivial app, and I have successfully done this by inserting a view-model layer, which translates back and forth between the model and view's data. This I guess becomes the State in SAM.

I think separating presentation from content logic is still a good idea, so HTML should stay away from any kind of JS, which is where I think React.js is going in the wrong direction. SAM seems to offer a way to do reactive views without the need to mix presentation and content logic.

As far as using pure functions and declarative programming, this is also the right direction for UI. Web apps are streams of data and actions, and functional paradigm handles streams orders of magnitude better than old-school imperative functions with side-effects. Good luck selling this idea to companies that use enterprise software with Java and that think process will fix all your problems.
I completely agree, and I suspect we'll see more hardware similar to the keyboard on the surfacebook where the peripherals boost the capabilities of the device plugged into them.

For those not aware, the keyboard in some of the surfacebooks have a better gpu than what is in the tablet part.
Here's What's Behind Tesla's Long, Slow Stock Slide
Yeah, I've been wondering if I should note somewhere in the examples that we don't actually execute `SELECT *`, we do something more reliable. I felt like listing every column would bury the lede though.
Yeah, if anything, the "AI" part of the search has been part of the decline. Google aggressively gives me what it thinks I want rather than what I ask for. It seems like it's very clever in giving me something like what an entirely average person would likely want if they mistakenly typed the text that I knowingly and intentionally typed ("Kolmogorov? do you mean Kardashian?" etc).

The search does seem able to understand simple sentences but there's much less utility in that than one might imagine. Just consider that even an intelligent human who somehow had all of the web in their brain couldn't unambiguously answer X simple sentence from Y person whose location, background and desires were unknown to them. Serious search, like computer programming, actually benefits from a tool that does what you say, not what it thinks you mean. Which altogether means they're a bit behind what Alta Vista could give in the Nineties but are easier to use, maybe.

Part of the situation is the web itself has become more spam and SEO ridden and Google needs their AI just to keep up with the arms race here. So "Two cheers" or something, for AI.
And I just realized where the Quagga routing suite (which is a fork of GNU Zebra) got it's name :)
I'd suggest it is likely that most peripherals that you connect your phone to will have their own power source which charges your phone, rather than using your phone as the power source.
Modern ML is glorified statistics, and our current chips are completely the wrong architecture for doing statistics (since they try to achieve maximum precision and zero stochasticity at all stages).

A lot of React proponents say that the defining feature of React is the cheer amount of community modules and components available for it.

After having used Polymer, I have not been able to bring myself to use React. React is more complex but it ultimately does the same thing. In these situations, I always pick the simpler solution.
> An entire human development up to the age of intelligence you are looking for

I've also found the lack of development time consideration a weakness in the AGI literature I've read. We can create intelligent humans now, but it takes not only reproduction, but immersion in our world and societies for something like 12-18 years for a fully intelligent agent to emerge. Maybe if some future DeepMind algorithms could inhabit a complex world like you find in Skyrim for a decade or two, you'd get something interesting.
Guess I'm lucky. I found a replacement battery on ebay that's been fine. Looked exactly like the genuine Apple batter (aluminum jacket). I'm posting on it right now.
Thanks. The designer is taking another pass at it soon, I didn't expect to have so much traffic. I'll bump up the color on the links until then.
So now I just flat out say what my jump-number is. Any answer other than "yeah, we can work with that" is a reason to end the conversation and save everybody's time.

Can't upvote that enough! I've been doing this for years. I don't have time to waste and if they won't talk the numbers there is no point in having the conversation.
Statements like "we are competitive" or my other favorite "can you send us proof of your current salary" are hilarious. The proof is my favorite. What is the point of that? If I won't talk to you for less than x dollars there is no value in proving what I currently make.
It has a valid Comodo certificate but forgot to include the full certificate chain, which is probably now the #1 configuration error (I help do support for Let's Encrypt and about 80% of "my cert doesn't work after issuance" problems are that). These bugs are tricky because most browsers cache intermediate certs and then forgive sites that don't send intermediates that the browser knows about, so you can see an error in one browser or device and not another because of different cert caches!
Show HN: Best Birthday Count Down and Reminder iPhone App

I don't see "distributed" anywhere on the product page. That makes it DOA for me, but nice effort
Don't get too hung up on "the first definition". The first definition of product in M-W is "the number or expression resulting from the multiplication together of two or more numbers or expressions". That says absolutely nothing about what it means in any particular sentence.

The bit rburhum objected to says "We're not trying to make money. We're testing a product right now." This is correct idiomatic use of the word "product" (in the sense "something we make"), and it's a relevant answer ("we don't have one") to the question "what is your business model?".
The problem is that the attackers could just jam said stream, or otherwise render it inoperable.

That said, my own thinking along these lines is very similar to yours. Having a persistent cryptographically secure live stream would go a long way towards protecting one against a wide range of false accusations.
Oh, that's interesting. Very impressive. My apologies for the misunderstanding :) I've seen far far worse legal understanding reviewing the writing of first and second year associates as a paralegal, in a previous job.

I do monitor the few comments of a few (especially rayiner and grellas.) I'm quickly learning that when they make legal arguments it's best to shut up and let them educate me.

Also, I've interestingly met a few people with JDs who go into finance, management, engineers as patent attorneys, and even one who went into high-risk bail bonds.
Completely agree, and this is where things get a bit more of a question mark. Do the two have to be mutually exclusive?

I don't really have an answer here, though I suspect that if my laptop becomes essentially a dumb terminal to my phone, I may upgrade it less often.
>Why not tell them an imaginary salary then?

Indeed.

After all, some companies suddenly become "flexible" once they find a candidate who really blows them away. Their alleged "top range" becomes malleable. So their range can be imaginary as well. In the information war that both sides are waging, similar tactics can be used.
