As someone who's picked up Python only in the last few years, Django is amazing. I'm particularly fond of Django CMS.

Does anyone know of a working "static site generator" for Django that works with Django CMS? Or maybe Wagtail? Something that would build out the static HTML pages ready to deploy to S3. Django CMS (thanks to Django itself) has a wonderfully robust back-office UI, and I feel like my Google-fu has failed me in finding that last puzzle piece to static site nirvana.
16 inches over 8 years is absolutely insane. That's the Usain Bolt of a sinking building.
I don't want to criticise it too much as it is completely free, so I will simply say that it would be hard to convince me to try it for a third time.

Microsoft VSCode is my editor, and it took me a long time to adopt it. They lacked a lot of features, but in the end delivering a few features that worked extremely well and adding the important ones as they could (thanks for tab support) won me over. Shipping a broken kitchen sink just turned me off. It had critical flaws that made either me, or the editor and my sometimes unsaved code, rage quit. I have used it cumulatively about 6 months over thd last 2 years.

Tl;dr at least as far as text editors go, 99% correct with a narrow feature set beats 75% stable witha wide one.
A quick comment on structured input vs. structured output learning
Yeah I've been on Sublime for months without looking back.

No reason why a few hundred line markdown file with Atom should bog down an i5 quad core with 16gb of ram to point where typing 1 key takes forever while Sublime operates on it instantly.
I think the tricky part has always been dynamic frequency selection, where the 5GHz WiFi radio is supposed to listen for a radar chirp and switch channels if it hears one. It's my impression that the hardware typically already supports some form of maximum transmit power configuration that the Linux drivers can further restrict but not loosen on the basis of the software's regulatory domain setting.

In which case you do what should have been done all along: Rate limit without regards to packet contents. People that still need better QoS than what that offers can pay for a higher tier to get a bigger chunk of the pie. With effective rate limiting in place the video bandwidth can be dropped by the server as necessary to maintain the stream. The infrastructure in the middle doesn't have any reason to meddle further.
That is a good question. Typically accuracy for something like this is "what percentage of the test data does the model accurately predict". In this example, the model is not punished for "not rating" text, and that is captured in the "percent rated" column. This example only demonstrates two classes of sentiment, positive & negative.

The main purpose is to demonstrate techniques to gain improvements over traditional/common Bayesian methods.
Is that a different term for "shadow banning"? I only recently came to know this while reading more about moderation techniques.

Apparently people will be allowed to say whatever they want but nobody will see it? I wasn't aware HN had this.
I was wondering the same thing, but Google street view (taken in 2014) doesn't show any evidence of such a big dip. How is that possible?? The only thing I can think of is that it's more of a "sag," where the middle has sunk 18" but the edges haven't moved much, but I'm not really satisfied with that theory.

Timing Attacks in the Modern Web
Emacs has tons of C code. And the display (and core text manipulation stuff IIRC) is not written in elisp.

In contrast, Atom just uses native code as the JIT, and then not only does (almost) everything in JS but also renders it with slow DOM.
We want to. Time/bandwidth is our problem right now. No one uses opencl in deep learning but we aren't against it if someone is willing to work on it.

Otherwise I'd have to pay someone a salary to do this..at the end of the day nd4j is part of what keeps us going.
How Religion Can Lead to Violance
The query specifically states, "...provided it doesn't adversely impact anyone else."

Building a sewage plant or a landfill next to your house would most certainly impact your life.
I wrote the article. It's always tricky to me to figure out how to phrase a statement about a frequentist method (since frequentist methods formally say so little). I may have phrased this incorrectly.

So what I'm attempting to say is that they ran a statistical test, were unable to reject the null hypothesis, and then wrote an article phrased as if they did exactly that. But I think you are right that my phrasing is incorrectly, however.
The fact that he accused us of hiding the truth from him in the first five minutes, and claimed to have exposed it. (And it was over something where we had told him the straight truth.)

I mean, it was an adversarial situation rather than a co-worker one (he was buying a line of business from us), but I saw enough to be fairly sure that he's toxic even when he's "on the same side" as you.

It's either that, or life is so hard that it can only appear during a short time-span.
> ut some of the "thin skinned" stuff is realizing that people shouldn't have to put up with things that used to be considered "normal". Sometimes we grow up and realize that what we used to do was really pretty crummy. For those who haven't realized that yet, it looks like people becoming more thin skinned. (I'm not saying that this is your situation. But if you perceive others as becoming too thin skinned toward specific behavior, you maybe should at least consider whether that behavior is as benign as you think.)

I'm old enough to have watched this "political correctness" phenomenon rise up and take hold of the masses. I understand it as a reaction to overt racism and actual hatred, but it goes too far and stifles discussion where it's needed the most. A lot of people grow up racist, or sexist or otherwise dismissive of large portions of humanity based on their upbringing. Sometimes they can get past it, other times they can't or won't. Political correctness, for all of it's appeal as "the right thing to do", takes away options people have for getting past their own prejudices.

It's also possible that people can use racist or sexist terms and not really mean anything by it. Hell, growing up Pollack jokes were all the rage when I was maybe 8 or 9. I don't know if I've ever met someone from Poland. They were just a stand in for "someone stupid", for whatever reason.

I guess all I'm trying to say is that the intention of the communication should be taken into consideration, not just the exact words or phrases used. We should also not be afraid to confront topics that are otherwise taboo. If people are civil and friendly, such conversations can be more helpful than harmful sometimes.

Honest questions:

How could they say "This file is not commonly downloaded" without knowing how often it is downloaded?

If they know how often files are downloaded, where are they receiving that information from?
I'm not taking a position, just pointing out that the post I replied to was not responsive to the original objection (which someone else wrote).

Also, the post I wrote specifically states, "provided that it doesn't adversely impact anyone else." Building a sewage treatment plant next to your house would certainly adversely impact your life, so it doesn't fall under the parameters of the query at hand.
Yep -- minimal demonstrative code. That's the ticket.
I said this elsewhere but vscode's strategy won me over atom's. Vscode was faster and more stable with much less features which they gradually added over time. Atom had all the features, more lag, and has been trying to polish them since.

Texteditors must be fast and predictable. Tab support for vscode was it for me. Also, their ide must add overhead and yet still much faster than atom
Not sure why you were down voted.

I'd say they are becoming lower by the day. Microsoft have announced Dynamics365 and I suspect they will double down on competing with Salesforce now.

Particularly now that Salesforce are competing against office365 with quip.

Salesforce only have a CRM, and even though it is popular they don't offer ERP, financials or any productivity tools.

I think they got greedy when they rejected Microsoft. With oracle buying netsuite (super charging their product dev funds) I think Salesforce will be in a bit of a pickle in a few years time, as they simply won't be able to offer an integrated package to the same level of depth their competitors do.

It's most likely that people with authority in the organization refuse to acknowledge the scope of the problem. People get upset about having to reset passwords, so imagine how they feel about being told to reformat or get entirely new machines. And frankly, those may not be viable options, because a competent and well-backed adversary will probably find their way in, even if you set them back at the starting line.

I'm not sure if this is the same as repartition(1), but I haven't noticed any problems with data structures. Or the to_pandas() solution works.

The problem with all these approaches is that they bring them all into memory on the driver. The real solution should be to stream to the node and write out as it does.

Bayesian Machine Learning, Explained
MicroPro, the company behind Wordstar, was the dominant word processing company in 1984. They were the largest software company in the world at the time, with about 25% of the industry. They went public in 1984 for a market cap of $165M. That's $482M in 2016 dollars.

What makes this word processor worth $750M?
I think you're really overestimating the relevance of moderation on that, in lieu of, (for example,) the education level, ages, and number of people and their investments in the community.

I just published technology that some researchers called an 'AI pitch' about 'magic AI does everything' (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12167097#12171264), even while they graciously pointed out some of its optimizations that add up to 'really good tech'. I appreciate all of the constructive and critical feedback, and I'm trying to bring it all together.

Probably the greatest conflict I feel in communicating about such R&D is the challenge of resolving two objectives:

(1) Explaining something technically complex to readers who are not generally interested in "what's under the hood", but still nonetheless appreciate high-level "outreach" about what's actually possible today

(2) Defining the marginal benefits of limited research to a small group of peers who prefer to think only in terms of "what's under the hood", and thus are offended by higher-level connotations that they may associate with hollow marketing rather than rigorous science

Every scientist who communicates to the general public faces the above challenge in some form, and thus struggles to maintain both clarity and integrity all around... One of my inspirations was Christopher Olah (colah.github.io), who I think strikes a wonderful balance of being very careful about jargon, while being very literal.

In any case, a pernicious problem that we face here, and perhaps a premise for the OP's article, is the highly subjective, controversial, and polarizing definitions of artificial intelligence. Too often we forget that what we imagine to be artificial intelligence may feel trivial to another person, and vice versa.

Okay you should have clarified that in your original comment, it's not that Nix is incompatible with unprivileged containers (it includes built in support!) but only with a specific container system that isn't even the most popular one (Docker AFAIK).

As for why those paths have to be hard-coded: they don't it's a config variable you can change. When you change it you give up using other people's binaries so you have to build everything yourself, which is exactly like every other distribution system that relies on hard-coded /usr/whatever paths for binaries. The FHS standard is incompatible with Nix's guarantees and dropping it is where it gets all of its power, so it has to use something different, and it chose to make that path /nix/store/whatever

It is quite scary for me to read that people have serious issues upgrading their frameworks, wouldn't it be better to use pyramid (or flask eventually) instead?

It is very mature and well supported - and the upgrades are usually painless since you can upgrade all the components separately so sqlalchemy for ORM or Jinja2 for templates - whenever you feel you are ready.

You will not get things like admin panel as a downside though.

This report summarizes the results of our review of the GEMS election management system, which counts approximately 25 percent of all votes in the United States. The results of this study demonstrate that a fractional vote feature is embedded in each GEMS application which can be used to invisibly, yet radically, alter election outcomes by pre-setting desired vote percentages to redistribute votes. This tampering is not visible to election observers, even if they are standing in the room and watching the computer. Use of the decimalized vote feature is unlikely to be detected by auditing or canvass procedures, and can be applied across large jurisdictions in less than 60 seconds.
How did it get approved? The developer's lobbyist and PR rep is former mayor Brown's spokesman and personal friend, and at the time the current mayor was Newsom, a product of Brown's machine. Newsom was a bit of a crook in the area of real estate, having some self-dealing while he was on the board of supervisors and making sure all of his friends' problems got cleared.

The same lobbyist also represents the Warriors in their current Mission Bay proposal.
