it's a small "webserver" that acts as a sort of proxy between several localhost:<port> applications and a domain name.

You need to modify your /etc/hosts file but then you can access your localhost applications from dedicated domains.

Mostly intended for dev purposes, not really production. Like, you could use it to test your website awesome.example.org as if it was in production on your dev-machine while it really only runs on localhost:9999

It also copies headers, so no problems when using some custom headers either!

(Beware that it uses IPv6)

Is google using the drawings from the game to train the AI further? I assume so.
I think GP has raised a fair point. The landing page says:
"Can a neural network learn to recognize doodles" but the game doesn't demonstrate that the ANN is able to recognize arbitrary objects.

It merely shows that it's able to pick the correct name from a finite list of possible names that could very well be small (e.g. 10 or 20 object names).

A better way to demonstrate that the ANN is truly able to recognize objects with good accuracy would be to ask a person to draw an unspecified object and guess its name.

If the goal is to acquire training data, they could still ask for a name in case of failure.
I can see the marketing storyline:

Raft is useful for handling redundancy (involving a limited number of nodes) but it has hard scalability limits. To achieve theoretically unlimited scalability, EVERY subsystem has to be embarrassingly parallel (which as far as I know Raft isn't) - If even one subsystem is not embarrassingly parallel, then the system as a whole will be limited in terms of scalability.

To build an embarrassingly parallel system; you can't avoid some sort of sharding.
I haven't looked too deeply into 'Quiescing Raft', but it still looks like scalability would be limited - It still looks like we have a scenario where each node might communicate with every other node (though in a more economical way).

To remove the limit completely, you'd have to settle with a solution that has fixed-size Raft groups which do not grow as you add more nodes to the cluster.
One approach might be to train it on what naughty words look like first, then ignore any future images that match too closely to them. That is what it's supposed to be best at, after all.

RA came shortly after TD. Not much had happend with strategy games till then and they just used the same engine and took everything for TD to the extreme (story, weapons etc.)

One year befor TS we got Starcraft, which took strategy games to another level, so they HAD to do more, but they didn't.

Anyway, the hype was probably enough to make enough money for the other titles, haha.

I actually don't see any rule in there about being ethical towards your userbase. The integrity encouraged here is towards the employer, which will be the one to insist on screwing over the users.
> Granted it's a jump from that to the real world.

Not that much of a jump though.

I wonder how much more evidence is needed for people to accept that having an active smartphone within range of your eyes and ears while driving is a major risk factor? You don't even have to use the thing; just knowing that notifications can show up any time now is enough to distract our primate brain. We've evolved to be able to detect and act on minute movements spotted in the corners of our eyes on the grassy plains, because it might just be a tiger lurking there. It's a (very effective, if you are a hunter-gatherer on a steppe) survival mechanism.

By now there are plenty of studies performed in driving simulators that proof that smartphones distract you significantly. Of course hard empiric real world data is hard to get by, because people involved in a crash will tend to deny or downplay the use or presence of a smartphone, so data from real world accidents is of limited use. What we do have is a lot of anecdotal real world observations by participants and traffic experts, where people conclude that a smartphone did indeed distract them to the point of (near) accidents, or where police officers on highway patrol can pick out someone texting based purely on the swerving of their vehicle (which they then confirm when the overtake them). But the point is that real world data cannot be ethically obtained in a controlled scientific manner for this topic — you can't let one group drive using their smartphone and another not.

Even here on HN it seems like a lot of people are downplaying the risk of smartphones in traffic, despite ample evidence pointing to just that conclusion. Is this one of those inconvenient truths?
Hi,

Have you completed the whole guide?

Eskéndereyya doesn't only support MSA but other regional derivative languages/dialects like Egyptian and Syrian Arabic. Also, it would be a good idea to refresh your memory and test your knowledge of the language.

I agree with you that the Arabic script is and will always be better for writing Arabic texts but this writing system was developed to fill the gap for beginners and as a stepping stone to the full experience of learning Arabic.

This is like the tenth time I've heard this since I started paying attention. So my question is how are they selling anything? What's so special about their chips that you can't get the same or better at a handful of other places. Like why did RPi go with BCM at all and nor say STM or someone else.

> But there are many large providers that rent dedicated hardware without a hypervisor. Are they just ignoring these concerns, hoping that this kind of tampering would be rare anyway?

Yes. You can try to mitigate the risk a bit, but it's still there. Just think of all the other firmware you can update, not just UEFI.

Also, for large contracts, rented servers are usually bought new and not re-used for multiple reasons (this is why providers have used server markets!).

Virtualization overhead is so low nowadays that it's not worth the risk. Provisioning is much harder, too.

> Humans are great at learning abstraction

Of course, there's severe bias here, in the sense that what we consider abstraction is by definition "human shaped" abstraction

If multiple humans try to "abstract" a cat, the overlap in underlying processes will be pretty big, making it more likely that we can recognise each other's abstractions.

I agree in part, but I think that if you are setting up such a message, it's important that you inform your friends and family of the message while you are still alive, and probably you should also tell them that the message might end up getting sent while you are still alive because you forgot or for some other reason didn't get around to confirming that you are alive still in time.
The inconveniences we're describing are limited to the suckers that get to write the firmware/drivers for these things, i.e. a few engineers.

Price, performance, availability, driver quality, etc may look competitive to the competition and affect a few million users.

If you sell a few million of these, saving 5 cents on the Wifi chip pays at least for 2 engineers full-time to deal with whatever issues Broadcom gives you.

That said, I'm a bit disappointed that it has a lot of trouble recognizing anything outside of "how people normally draw things" (especially if you go out of your way to do more than "the bare minimum", draw things at a different angle, in 3D, etc).

A lot of drugs have severe side effects. And of course, if a drug is popular enough, there always will be a couple of extremely severe cases.

Does it mean that those drugs are bad? Does it mean that the recovery of millions of patients is outweighted by one where the doctor probably shouldn't have prescribed it in the first place because the patient was already predisposed to depression or depressed in the first place?

People really can't draw hospitals either. Not one of them looks like a real hospital (because what does a hospital look like. You know one if you see one but it's the people not the buildings).

For $25/month, just rent a dedicated server in Europe (or even just put in your basement if your network connection is sufficiently sized). RDP with HyperV has everything you need for that sort of usage (RemoteFX).

For coding, you don't even need a GPU. Just use RDP. Big companies use this all the time (thin clients + central server farm, also called VDI).
With cars being built to safety standards that make cars from even 1-2decades ago seem like tin cans, - spike in traffic deaths as I see it is likely due to:
1) distracted driving/apps
2) increase in prescription pill usage/drunk driving. I don't think it's #2 at all.

I don't need statistics to tell me that I am on of few drivers that puts my telephone in my pocket/center console so that I don't look at it. I will cop to hands free telephone talking and I admit it makes me a worse driver, but at least I have my eyes on the road. Bad journalism or not this is a real, infuriating, DANGEROUS, and completely preventable problem. I also can't believe how many people don't want to hear that they are doing something that makes them much more dangerous and much more likely to have an accident. I guess people just don't "feel" like it's wrong if they're sober. I am hoping that autonous cars are cheap and safe before my 9 year old starts driving. People don't seem capable in general of choosing either texting or driving and not both.

It's almost enough to make you question whether "acceptance" as politic was actually about acceptance, or using the language of something agreeable to push a slightly different goal.

My family did a long road trip around Rajasthan back in the early 2000s -- there is gorgeous architecture and art strewn all over the landscape, completely unlike what you will find elsewhere in the world. As a brown guy raised in the West (or its embassies in other parts of the world) it was a formative experience, opening my eyes to the fantastically massive bodies of artistic achievement outside the confines of traditional western fine art.

I'd recommend a trip to the subcontinent if you ever get a chance, with the usual disclaimer: tread carefully if you're a woman. Lots of stories from my mom and sister (and more recently my wife) on that front, none of them good.

This echoes my experiences with Broadcom quite well. A couple years back I simply crossed Broadcom off the list of chips being considered for anything at all, because it's too much hassle to beg them for access, much less for actual parts.

Mind you, Broadcom doesn't care about this at all — I was never a significant customer volume-wise for them, and as you wrote this is their strategy. They simply will not work with small companies.

RPi went with BCM because it was founded by ex-Broadcom employees. There is no other good reason to use a Broadcom chip, especially in an "open" platform, because BCM chips by definition are not "open".

The BCM283x series has a good mix of features, but it is far from being the only solution for set-top boxes.

Except no, its not a book of ads. Its a coffee table art book like many others and sold at a very similar price. All the major fashion labels have such books, as do most art collections.

Exactly. With a passenger you share the same locality and when traffic gets tricky, the passenger tends to focus on the situation at hand as well and won't expect immediate responses. With a remote conversation the other side is completely unaware of your local situation; the conversation takes places in some sort of blank virtual shared reality where only the participants and their conversation topic reside — your brain ends up needing to be in two places at once.

We're just not very good at that.
Yes, legislation in most places specifies your number to be listed, unless you ask it to be removed. Germany was probably a bad example.
Caveat: I noticed I quickly started adjusting my drawings to exaggerate the most stereotypical features, and resort to stereotypes overall, because they seemed more likely to get recognised.

So it is not just how people think about things, but at least in part also how people think other people will have thought about things guided by seeing the examples of other drawings.
This is really fun. It didn't get my calendar drawing, wondering if it would have understood a box with a 31 in it.
Read more from the original, taking just a small quote out of it doesn't do it justice. Also see my other comment for the context. The context matters.

It's about the claims based on faith versus the acknowledging the scope of what we actually know so that we can actually find out, which produces the absurdities in the religions for which they have to shame themselves today, as these simply don't match what we know today for sure.

Good, Interesting !
When it comes to abstraction from a simple rendering – no shading, no sense of depth, no discernible dimensions – it's hard to extrapolate features.

I feel there is an immense difference between recognizing simple sketches and deriving what an object is based on extended characteristics.

The video you linked furthers that by showing that ASIMO was using three-dimensional observation to calculate certain features and ascertain what that object was.
Yes, indeed. Just a weird but funny coincidence in this case.
I wonder if this will change now that Broadcom has been bought (new leadership and all)…

"Tokyo Ghost is an ongoing American science fiction comics series written by Rick Remender, drawn by Sean Murphy and colored by Matt Hollingsworth, published since September 2015 by Image Comics.

The series is set in 2089, a time when humanity is addicted to technology and entertainment. It follows the story of constables Debbie Decay and Led Dent, working as peacekeepers in the Isles of Los Angeles. They are given a job that will take them to the last tech-free country on Earth: the garden nation of Tokyo."
