This is actually great feedback, if you know how to interpret it. Because now you know all the features your application has that your application doesn't adequately present to users.
This is a brilliant idea, IMO, and a real game changer (in principle, not necessarily tied to the implementation). Without this, CV problems are largely only limited by how much data you can get. If you can simulate arbitrary scene configurations it's now possible to solve almost any non-human CV problem, even ones with sparse data.

For example, in security applications you have basically zero data on the sorts of anomalous events you want to trigger on. If you can simulate example cases of those things that means you can actually start applying supervised machine learning.

I had the same experience in 10th grade (in France we switch school in the 10th grade). I had been bullied the two previous years and when 10th grade started I punched the first kid who bullied me. No one bullied me after that.

Of course, this only works in an environment without weapons and without excessive escalation. I'm not sure it applies to girls though, being violent for a guy is considered by other kids as manly and earns respect. If a girl snaps and punches another girl, she'll be seen as crazy and most likely bullied even more than before.

I grew up in a neighborhood of dirt and chicken coops. My parents made less than 12k $ per year as I grew up. My parents never attended college and did not know the first thing about it.
My privileges included a stable family that pushed me to succeed where they had not, and an above average IQ.

I got through college with my family on student loans, stipends, and food stamps.And you know what, my kids will have opportunities I never even dreamed of. There is no better feeling.

The one reference you provided was for a deep learning implementation, which is what you seemed to be dismissing.

Tylenol causes ~56,000 emergency room visits, 2,600 hospitalizations, and ~450 deaths per year.

It's true. Getting shot at by German submarines and bombed by planes did bring the danger level up to what typical sea travel was like a hundred years earlier:

"Ten men were thrown overboard, around fifty died of scurvy or starvation, and twenty were killed when a drunken brawl got out of hand."

"So it was a good trip?"

Doing just this. For me, a Monolithic Dome figured out to be the lowest maintenance. Concrete, for all the reasons you mentioned, plus an added benefit of no roof needing repair. Exterior maintenance is yearly power washing, only if it looks dirty. Considered stamped concrete flooring, but decided on vinyl plank.

There are no preorder stats for the Bolt because GM doesn't do preorders. Bolt sales start this year when they arrive in dealerships. It's quite possible that Bolt sales (actual cars in actual dealerships) can (will?) eat into Tesla Model 3 preorders, especially because they may be "car keys in hand" well before the Model 3 wait list catches up to many potential buyers.

Also, comparing Volt sales to Bolt sales is a bit like comparing Model S sales to Model 3 sales; different target markets and different price points entirely. At this point I don't think anyone has a good idea (except for projections that may or may not be accurate) what the Bolt demand will be until the Bolts start showing up in dealerships soon.

While I think this is a good idea and people who want to buy small homes may use it the math is pretty hilarious.

Why would I want a lower tax interest write off, still have to put up the same amount of initial capital, pay for all maintenance etc, but only down 66% of an asset?
Google doesn't currently have a plan to scale.

First the pardon will never happen. Neither Obama nor any other President can or will pardon him, lest they encourage the next Snowden. So signing it will not actually help Snowden.

Second, it's entirely possible that your fears will come true - obviously the government will receive your information and they can use it how they see fit. Not only that, but they appear to be running a co-registration campaign with the ACLU, and you don't know exactly who else will get your name, email, and physical address, or who those people will sell it to. I would be also curious to see what kind of remarketing cookies they are using. You can easily be put in the bucket of "HN users that visited the support Snowden page" and be stalked accordingly by advertisers across millions of Adsense-supported sites, Google search, Facebook, and the general web with just two or three remarketing cookies.

The creators of this site undoubtedly know that their stated goal will never be accomplished. So this looks more like an attempt to build a marketing database of people with a specific viewpoint than anything else.
It is better for those drivers to consider new jobs when there is a small push from a private company. Then there will be enough time for those drivers to adapt to a new environment. Think otherwise a government push for driverless cars. It would happen so quick that all those drivers would struggle until they find a new income.

That makes sense. From an engineering standpoint, supporting local caching and cloud means they have to write (and maintain, and debug) every algorithm twice. Or, they can write it once to take advantage of the cloud and cross-service integration, and people who don't want that feature-set can use another, less-integrated service.

Perhaps they are putting their chips on the assumption that the quality of service that can be provided with data integration is going to exceed alternatives.

That's a fun question. The style element that repeats the leading parts of sentences is called anaphora, but it's usually used to emphasize the repeated part. Here it is more used to illustrate the (supposed, but lamented) contrast between society in and out of prison.

On the whole, I'd say the expression is a form of dramatic sarcasm.
I don't agree - case 2 and 3 aren't returning boolean values, they are matching on a pattern. Perhaps using the if keyword was a mistake there, but the commas and equal sign aren't. I think using the && and == syntax is strange when you aren't comparing 2 boolean values.

Almost exact same thing happened to my friend in 7th grade as well. Although he clearly lost the fight, he definitely won in the long term.

This was in the late '80s. One of the bigger bullies came up to him in the locker room out of the blue, said "hey geek" and punched him in the chest. Amazingly calmly he replied "Don't hit me" and punched him back, pretty weakly in comparison. I remember thinking at the time "what are you, fucking insane, hitting him back?" It immediately escalated into a full-on fight with the bully getting a good eight or so hard punches in which my friend futilely tried to avoid or hit back where he could. It was stopped pretty quickly when the gym teacher arrived and put the bully in a headlock.

So even though he basically got his ass kicked, nobody ever picked on him again. At least not physically.

Bullies are like thieves, and go for the easy targets. Putting up a fight, no matter how futile at the time, will likely remove you from the list of easy targets.

Totally agree. The article was de-railed by the time it used Musk's personality as part of some tweet-fishing closing one-liner. If this is really about evolving competitive landscape, Musk as a cult of personality is really far from the point.

Welcome to the world of restricted travel, British people
Laundry is actually one chore that doesn't bother me, and I don't even have in-home machines. My laundromat is two blocks away, serves food, beer and (if I fail time management and don't finish before it begins) truly, really horribly bad comedy acts.

I load my little wheelie-cart, my laptop for some work or a book if I have time, and do what I'd normally do somewhere else for a couple hours. The only real differences are minimal interactions with humans, a need for quarters, and having to wear pants.

Folding is tedious. I hang everything except T-shirts, and some way to skip folding things simply to hang them at home would be nice, but that would involve a vehicle, which is its own bundle of urban hassle and silly for two blocks.
A great follow up documentary is Revenge of the Electric Car from the same documentarian. He was invited to witness the launches of the Chevy Volt, Nissan Leaf, and Tesla Model S.
The biggest issue with both that and the single drum units another comment mentioned is that if there's more than one load you still have to be on stand by to put it in, so you're only saving time on the transfer of a single load.

For the single drum units, you lose the ability to wash 1 load while another is drying. The perk is that you can throw a load in when you leave for work and it will be done when you get back home. If you have more than one those, you're extending your total wash time from

wash * loads + (1 dry time)

to

(wash + dry time) * loads

F# using .net core sdk from command line works (new, restore, build, run, test, publish) like c#.

xplat is ok where .net core is supported, so osx/ubuntu/win/docker.

Docs need some improvements, but lots are language agnostic, or c# examples help (docs are open source, if someone want to help).

Important wip or not implemented yet feature of compiler/language:

- type providers

- portablepdb for enable debugging

- f# repl

The f# libraries in ecosystem are starting to support .net core (netstandard), like FSharp.Compiler.Services (the compiler as library), Suave ( github.com/SuaveIO/Suave-CoreCLR-sample ), Argu, Fable. These are not hello world examples, so it works. Some are in prerelease, but it's expected because it's a new framework/tooling and need testing.

There are only few libraries of the f# ecosystem who support .net core, but it's expected because is a bootstrapping issue in lot of cases (i need to wait .net core support for my dependencies add support..)

Obv it's possibile to use all others .net libraries who support .net core (netstandard) like the BCL, Kestrel, etc.

As editor, vscode has the best support using usual the amazing Ionide plugin for f# (who already give f# support for .net and mono). Intellisense, build, run is ok but not debugging.

Using Visual studio, only build/run works (xproj and project.json), but not intellisense or debugging.

If you want to chat there are two good f# slack groups

- #dotnetcore in fsharp.org slack (other chan too)

- #fsharp in fpchat.com
There's too much money or power otherwise. Perhaps the discussion to have is not about the degrees of surveillance or walled gardens, but public access to mass surveillance records collected by government agencies. If everyone had access to everything, it would be a check on the absolute power of powerful institutions to corrupt them absolutely.

I'm not evangelizing the idea, I just think it's something worth debating and I don't see enough of it yet.
I just wanted to back you up, because I have a funny feeling you'll be criticized (common for frontierspeople) and I was thinking a lot about this very thing just yesterday. I've been a computer scientist for 25 years, and I've always tried to approach everything on the most basic terms of information, transformation, and IO. I revisit this fundamental way of conceptualizing daily, no matter what problem I'm working on.

Like you, I can't fathom what the objection is to AGI. A human body is complex, but human behavior is simply not that complex in the grand scheme. I have never encountered or thought of any theoretical difficulty with an algorithm mimicking human behavior, or the behavior of a vastly more intelligent sci-fi AI for that matter.

I don't care whether AGI has internal subjective experience. At least, I don't care beyond circular philosophical musing. I certainly don't care as regards the construction of AI, because it has no bearing on the construction of AI for the forseeable future.

AGI is going to sneak up on everybody incrementally, and intelligent people will still be arguing about whether it's possible, even while it happens.
Sometimes it's just about keeping people employed, which gives a person a sense of purpose, and may prevent them from protesting.
Every car maker and model has to reinvent things like the speed dial, in an ever worsening way. When the good, the intermediate and the bad designs have all been done, only truly atrocious gimmicks are left.
I'd argue that these comparisons, while obvious to make, are missing an absolutely critical piece of Tesla's long-term plan: autonomous driving capability. This article and others are merely drawing comparisons based on price and range.

GM has fielded electric cars off and on for 20 years now (going back to the EV1). The field is maturing quickly, but the Bolt and other cars like it are really just electric versions of existing ICE platforms. In the case of the Bolt, it's the same platform as the Buick Encore and Chevy Spark in the US. There are very few platform-specific updates that serve to differentiate the Bolt from its siblings. That's not a criticism in and of itself, but it serves as an illustration of how GM's approach differs dramatically from Tesla's.

What Tesla is doing by creating entirely new platforms is ensuring that they are engineered not just to be electric vehicles but - more importantly - to be autonomous vehicles. This article is overlooking just how important that functionality will be in Tesla's vision for the Model 3 (and all of their other future offering). Musk has made no secret of this. So, no, the Bolt is not Musk's White Whale.
Thanks paul. I should elaborate: the other partners were asking other and varied questions.

The experience was really not bad except that the persistence and insistence of that question made it feel like an episode of Shark Tank.

I think it's safe to say you're exaggerating, and while there will be local pockets of utter confusion (North Korea, some US ISPs) on the whole it will be fine.

That's not to say we don't need to fight for rights, to keep this sort of thing from happening, but that I have confidence that we can and will fight these things successfully.
