Actually most task management systems allow that today, through APIs, but you will need some glue to fix them together, like IFTTT or Zapier.

This is not limited to interoperability, cross domain / organization collaboration tool. It is almost like asking what sort of e-mail tools can be built on top of email protocol.

You are right about the commercially viable aspect. But if I wanted to make it commercially viable I would not have made it open.

I think something like this WILL be the `interoperate` set of data that you are talking about.

I said boolean logic because the paper mention fifth graders, which are unlikely to be at ease with complex boolean formulae. But there are number of more complex concepts that would also work: OOP, maps or reduce, mutexes and so on.

To answer your question, in my experience (I taught programming 101 number of times) many people are indeed confused when they need to reason about complex if statements. Typically, they make redundant tests, and it takes a little while before they understand why it is not needed.
There are permitting processes for a reason. So that we do not have an epidemic of shoddily built houses that fall down or burn down, etc. or, don't end up with a nuclear power plant in the middle of a quite residential street. Granted, some limits are too restrictive and should be removed and/or relaxed. Others should be kept and/or enhanced. Blanket removal of all limits is just as stupid as limits that are too restrictive

RPN is a better way to think about calculating or computing.

It's more cumbersome for a single arithmetic operation, but when you're chaining operations together the stack is very powerful.

It's a lot less abstracted from the way the computer works.

As a 'liberal', I disagree.

It has nothing to do with race, it is economic disparity.

These laws exist, in some extent, to preserve the existing character of the area, for better or worse.

If you want to change these laws, I suggest you get involved (not necessarily to the same extent as Starchild in the article).

The videos are neat but kind of minimal. Is it odd for me to feel uncomfortable and skeptical of this series because of the title? Google has clearly figured out how to market this video, since the "I" changes but the message is the same every time:

https://www.reddit.com/r/coding/comments/4f1p35/google_has_s...

https://www.reddit.com/r/MachineLearning/comments/4f07rp/goo...

The last one is actually the OP it seems, and each video is a good chunk apart in time posted. Not sure what to make of it, I just don't like it when a title like this is the exact same but is made to seem like it was genuinely written by the person who posted it.
>> "A computation expressed using TensorFlow can be executed with little or no change on a wide variety of hetero- geneous systems, ranging from mobile devices such as phones and tablets up to large-scale distributed systems of hundreds of machines and thousands of computational devices such as GPU cards."

Are there other comparable systems that deploy using the same build across all platforms?

If not, putting aside other advantages like doing computation across multiple machines, being able to using the same build is a major step forward in my opinion.

That's the "In politics, everyone is a sociopath" version of politics.

It's true a lot of people think and live like this, but it would be interesting to see politics join the 21st century, instead of pretending that an ethical base that can be traced back to the Stone Age is something to celebrate.
I don't know about that... When you're a VC, you're likely already financially stable. So you have more flexibility in having fun playing the game. Why fund a lightly-profitable boring company when you can have a seat at the table of a company moving or defining entire markets?
The policies for improving innovation are too simple and don't work. Simply increasing immigration of STEM workers, increasing STEM education and throwing money at the education department won't get people more educated. Have you met really intelligent engineers and scientist. The ones that make a difference are not in STEM for the money, they are in it because they are inspired and driven to research and invent. A culture of STEM needs to be created amongst people to push this type of agenda forward.
Not all states have income tax, and why should all existing real property owners subsidize the new developer's impact on the existing shared infrastructure?
Feel free to trust whoever you want, though if you're disputing that Microsoft hasn't done anything that would result in some not trusting it ever again, then yes, I take issue with that.
The more you advance in a field, the more you control you want to have over the concepts you work with and what you produce. So an expert will look for a more flexible tool, one that gives access to all these concepts. Whether that's a bare bones instrument or a computer program, it will be unsuitable for a beginner.
People averse to low income and brown people moving to their nice little town will just weaponize those permit costs to block developers. By putting those infrastructure costs exclusively on the developer, you're basically taxing poverty, because those costs will all have to go on to the new poor residents.

We already have an income tax system, it spreads the burden well. If the city needs more taxes to pay for infrastructure they should raise their local income taxes.
lol, what hogwash drivle is this?
There's nothing that's inherently a problem in that. It definitely makes sense that this is the Red Pill viewpoint given their audience and demographics: all male, largely middle aged, many of whom have been "burned" by a previous monogamous relationship.
Because people who buy Gulfstreams are so rich that the cost of the Gulfstream is only a small fraction of their wealth. It's really hard to fathom how filthy stinking rich some of these people are. A Gulfstream V, the absolute top of the line, costs $50M. That's one year's salary for e.g. Rush Lumbaugh (just to pick a random example out of a hat whose income is publicly known).

Also, most jets are not bought by filthy stinking rich people, they are bought by businesses, mainly airlines, which operate on pretty thin margins. If you raised taxes on jets significantly you would probably put a lot of them out of business. If you tried to raise taxes on jets that were disproportionately bought by filthy stinking rich people they'd just go out and buy different jets to avoid the taxes.

On the other hand, if you're poor then just the bare necessities of life will cost a significant fraction of your income.

The only equitable taxation scheme is a progressive income tax and/or a wealth tax.
The nation will become more equitable economically when rich people and poor people all share the same zipcodes again.

Property tax comes after the fact. You move to a new area with kids now. You pay your property tax at the end of the year. But the kids need school right now and the district has to: find property to build a new school, raise bonds to fund it, build the damn thing, hire staff.

A modern tract home can be built in as little as 2 weeks with modern prefab construction. Schools take much longer.
"in cases where nations are found culpable for terrorist attacks that kill Americans on United States soil"
increase the politicians you take away their staff

Respectfully disagree. It's not that easy.

Legislating is an information processing problem. The politics of attention. All the legislators I know can barely keep up with the torrent of information. Overwhelming them with info and votes and meetings prevents them from taking initiative. They need more staff.

All games have winners and losers. Weakening legislators -- thru term limits, cutting staff, whatever -- strengthens lobbyists and administrators (heads of departments, the silent state) and executives.

My baptism to the policy world flipped most of my positions.

Some measures that would strengthen legislators, give them more autonomy, would be public financing of campaigns (no more dialing for dollars), public disclosure commissions, pay raises and full time employment (so regular people, not just lawyers and retirees, could serve), full staffs, recording every vote (disallowing roll call voice votes), lengthen the legislative calendar, diffuse power thru more fair committee assignments (not just seniority), etc, etc.

There's no shortage of worthy reform proposals. Just mind the winners and losers with every rule change.
Developing a Facebook Messenger Bot (Part 2)
Well, no, they probably can't. Under Citizens United and FEC v McCutcheon, the idea of banning lobbying (at least via SuperPac) is a non-starter with the courts. That may have changed with Scalia's passage, but under current precedent, you can't ban it, whether or not you replace it with something else for the party insiders.
>"If you want to change these laws, I suggest you get involved."

I've been considering campaigning for Donald Trump. Given his background, I think he may be the most likely president to push for the sort of anti-Zoning laws I'm interested in. Perhaps you're right.

>"Do you own real property?"

Yes, I own a home in a wealthy suburb just outside of Philadelphia. I am well aware of the growing pains this would cause. But that can't stop us, this is a human rights issue, as far as I am concerned.

You're agreeing with parent.

How so?
Not exactly a shining example of proper authentication. I don't particularly like being forced to use a mobile phone for government authentication (because of the text message token requirement).

It would be nice if we could get some decent two-factor authentication in the next iteration. I hope Idensys (DigiD's successor) will get the hardware factor right, and provide a truly cross-platform solution that does not involve mobile phone numbers.

Apache Artemis a distributed MQTT,AMQP,JMS implementation
What this amounts to is Michael Moore now has to make his movies for $2700 (assuming that's the limit) instead of the $20 million he's making them for now.

The reason Citizens United was decided the way it was is because it costs money to make movies, and even if you somehow allocate public money towards the distribution of the film on PBS or whatever, you're still insisting that the movie makers aren't allowed to spend more of their money to make the movie to their own standards.

Fun fact: there's a non-linear corollary between the growth of compute speed and the growth of network speed. Network speeds do increase, but they are not doing so as quickly as compute and storage.

I have observed that interns at corporations are usually tasked with things nobody wants to do or thinks can't be done. I wonder if there is a correlation between Wirth's Law and interns (the process of learning).

It puts complaints about VR headsets in a different light when you think about how much those consoles you loved as a kid cost after adjusting for 20+ years of inflation. When you compare how expensive a NES was in real terms at launch with how little you got in terms of possible experience, it drives home how much computing has advanced over the years and how high (spoiled?) peoples' expectations are now that they bitch about Oculus costing $700 or whatever.
If you're just using the algorithm to suggest items customers may be interested in buying, the math might not be important because nobody loses much when a mistake is made. Sometimes the stakes are higher and it's important to know what's really going on. If you're using an algorithm to decide who to give a loan to, all those "unimportant" small details might turn out to be very important once it's too late.

but lucky for you women are not that vapid

So I used to believe this. I believed that allowing myself to be a slave to physical attraction was a character flaw, that every time I paid attention to an attractive woman and rejected an unattractive woman that I was a shallow, vapid person. I felt ashamed of it.

But have you ever tried dating someone whom you just weren't physically attracted to? I have (twice). It turns out it doesn't work in the long run. Convincing yourself that its the "right thing to do" will work in the short term, but eventually you'll build resentment towards them until the relationship falls apart.

I'd encourage you to reconsider this viewpoint, and to stop promulgating it. Be honest with yourself. Anything else is just being reckless with another human being's emotions.

Author here, if you remember my post about my need for a bone marrow transplant for leukemia way back in August. As I mention in the article I have left the GH repo in a sad state, mostly because I am too lazy to deal with merge conflicts and stuff. I apologieze.

Long story short I received an allo transplant successfully but the road has been rather rocky. The article talks about what people with cancer do all day, basically how I spent half of 2015. Hope you find it interesting. Sorry for the typos.

I totally agree that building limits are bad. But zoning and planning still have some virtues.

I think we need something to swing the balance towards more housing without throwing out zoning. So perhaps targets for housing units created, and if a city isn't doing enough, everything is already up zoned to, say, 4x the density previously allowed.
There's also the whole SEO argument.

We trained these websites to link internally as much as possible to increase their page rank and ad revenue.

Technologists criticizing websites for not linking to external primary sources is a little bit like the pot calling the kettle black.

>how can you hope to interpret it?

Basically: "instructions", that become more simple over time. There are some nuances to, say, R^2. But the concept that it's "how much variance is explained by the model" isn't difficult to comprehend...or apply.

Let me clarify that I'm not saying it's unimportant to understand the underlying mathematics behind these processes. After all, someone has to design these things so that the layman can actually apply them. What I, and it seems others, are arguing is that it isn't necessary to have a deep understanding of the algorithms to get insight from their usage. Some creative person creates the tool, and other creative people figure out its best uses. They are rarely the same people.

I'll add: I'm not sure why you're down-voted. This community seems to be developing those bad habits of disagree = down vote.
Is there command line utility for this?
So, if I bought the house next door to you, and had 8 separate families live there (I would be charging them rent), you would be okay with that?

Also, since garbage storage would be a problem, I told my tenants they can just toss their garbage bags over the fence into your yard, and you would take care of it.

And since parking is now an issue with 15 additional cars, and friends visiting in their cars, I suggested they use your driveway or yard as parking.

Are you okay with that?
Not sure how I'd feel about that, it would make it easy to miss worthwhile stuff like a lot of "Back to Work" or "Home Work" - the first in particular has a lot of wandering around on some episodes but also can have some real gems.

Seems like the scoring system could catch a lot of what you're concerned about.
Removing zoning permits does not equate to shoddily built houses. This is what you call, a straw man.
We can call it that too, but it's still still very strange to suggest that we should ignore the motive.

The motive is clearly to have a laugh at someone's expense. Where I come from, that's qualified as a prank, and does not preclude the act from also being attempted murder.

The extent to which everybody wants to play with words wrt this issue is puzzling.

module Numeric
def times(&b)

It's really no different than the Scala you'd write for the same thing:

implicit class LongHelpers(l: Long) {
def times(f: => Any) = (1L to l) foreach f
}

10 times println("here's a line!")

To interpret that as a Set operation would make the definition of a Set operation so broad as to be useless IMO.
No, the math doesn't work out with $1MM returns.
The first part might very well be from Obama the constitutional lawyer, meaning that it believes that the federal government has no place on defining what a marriage is and is not.
And the 2nd part might very well be from Obama himself, believing that "marriage" especially in the "traditional/religious" sense is a bond between a Man and a Woman doesn't mean you object to gay men, women, and transsexuals from being "married" in the legal sense of the way.

The Administration supported the fact that states are not allowed to ban gay marriage that in a sense actually matches what both "Obama's" said previously. And as long as gay couples can receive the same legal protection and benefits of any other "married" couple through any means I myself consider them to be equal in the eyes of the law and that anything beyond that is a fight for symbolism and semantics which while I do not object too I also do not actively support or take part in.

Zoning is not the same as permitting - you can remove zoning restrictions without removing safety inspections, etc.
>Prank carries a connotation that the act should not expose the target to actual danger.

Says who?

Examples of irresponsible and dangerous pranks abound.

More to the point, the intent is still to have a laugh at someone's expense which fits the dictionary definition of "prank" quite well: a practical joke or mischievous act.

In anticipation of the nitpicking over the term "mischief", I submit the google definition thereof: harm or trouble caused by someone or something.

Sorry, but the fact that calling this a prank should get people so upset is really, really bizarre.
