This is more of a question around general AI.

While I understand we have come a long way in recognizing objects with deep learning etc. is there any research around how to ask questions to infer from the patterns learnt automatically ? Not by a human asking the questions to the AI to learn, but by the AI itself questioning and inferring by itself?

I wonder if the next Bethesda games will ever see such success after The Witcher 3. That game is so high above Fallout 4, in terms of quests, characters, and anything you could think about, that I seriously doubt Bethesda is capable of producing something that could even be compared.
Thanks for the tip. Didn't know you could get so much info from ps. Will re-check its man page.

Do you have any recommendation on books or online sites for learning about the more advanced topics you mention above (the many Unix topics that you say ps gives info on, not just ps itself)? I know about the Stevens [1] series of Unix and networking books, and have read parts of some, but that was a while ago. Things must have changed a good amount since then. Should still read Stevens again, I guess.

Added bonus I guess is that if one of our web apps gets acquired, it is extremely easy to detach it from our account and move it on.

That fact that you can't call it the Jewish lobby is exactly the squeamishness I'm referring to. The Jewish lobby are not at all shy about saying that they support Israel because they are Jewish. There are of course some Jews who claim to hold the opposite opinion because they are Jewish, but it is clear that the economic and political influence of Jewish Americans is overall pro-Israeli and pro-war, most recently advocating for a proxy war with Russia in Syria.

Also comparing three terms on google trends suggests the left haven't been nearly active enough in promoting either concept:

I don't have time to go through point by point, but lets take your example of Clinton admitting fault for Rwanda. While he may personally feel guilt for suppressing information to justify the inaction, America did not have a responsibility to jump in and help the situation in the first place. He didn't help the situation but he didn't condone it and he wasn't the person who made it happen. He is just one person, like many others at the time, who didn't step in to try and stop it. That doesn't make you "evil", nor does it make you a saint. Sometimes its just not possible to help others, as sad as that may be, and I trust a US president more than my second hand knowledge to make that call.

You have to get a "psychosis event" in the first place. Conditional probability, only a small subset of people taking "substances" ever have that problem. You leave out some vital information, without it the percentages and risks you mention are meaningless. As a (university researcher inner medicine) doctor I know used to say: There have been cases of severe side-effects from placebos... meaning just mentioning something can have bad effects is meaningless without more information.

> Parent sounds so bad because he seems to grade security by seeing how many CVE's the developer publishes, ignores the fact that browser exploits are often done by exploiting attack surface outside the browser (because all browsers are - relatively speaking to other software - secure), and conflating Chrome vs Chromium.

By counting CVEs alone, Chrome would be the least secure since it has more CVEs than any other browser thanks to Google's bug bounty and fuzzing, most of them harmless.

What I counted were real-world browser exploits which is an excellent measure of security.

> such problems are rather rare these days

In Chrome, yes. They happen rather often with Firefox.

If you're interested in C++ Frameworks that take a similar approach (e.g. a comprehensive C++ API, statically defined networks etc.) and you aren't afraid of meta-programming, then I'd also take a look at the dlib implementation: http://blog.dlib.net/2016/06/a-clean-c11-deep-learning-api.h...

Having attempted to read the legislation passed, I actually have no idea in a lot of ways what this bill does and what this bill doesn't cover. (The main thread of what it covers seems terrible).

I consider myself a quite intelligent and logical person, but I get lost halfway through reading it. It seems full of contradictions and half vague statements that could or couldn't cover something.

Are these bills purposefully confusing by design? It seems like you can interpret it in a lot of ways. Why is it not clear, concise and understandable?

Tails' existence is a symptom of much greater illnesses but offers a false, inconvenient panacea that just muddies the water. The major, underlying issue is untrustworthy applications, operating systems and hardware the "free market" hasn't brought integrity, privacy and anonymity to barely anyone in a practical, consistent and verifiable form. It may not be easy to accomplish end-to-end verifiably-uncompromised systems, but it's the minimum standard when lives and safety are at stake. Anything less is crap, like America's attitude to nonregulation of health supplement ingredients or those 62k chemicals grandfathered in via TSCA, when there are superior regulation frameworks like those in Scandinavian countries.
Machine learning is a better term because it's more specific (and less controversial). But under most definitions of AI, ML is a subfield of AI, so calling it AI may be suboptimal, but not wrong.

Personally I'm a fan of the AI definition "things humans can do and computers can't do yet", but I recognize that that definition isn't terribly useful.

Very nice. I don't know what my tipping point is, but I suspect we have long since overshot it. The only reason everything's so relatively peaceful is because of the lack of transparency. We only ever hear what's going wrong if it leaks, which I postulate to be only a small fraction of total shitty goings-on.

I've been thinking about (2) recently, and a separation of Bank and State akin to the separation of Church and State came to mind.

For one, completely disallow gov. officials to get on a private lobbying payroll and vice-versa. Infringement by not naming the position "lobbyist" but "turd sandwich" provokes harshest penalties and analysis of the person's work during their time in Congress or wherever in order to find dishonest activity (which ideally would then be rolled back. Easier said than done).

Secondly, make bail-outs impossible. When a private company fucks up, that's by definition a private problem, not a public one. The public cannot be forced to account for a private entity's stupidity or evilness.

Couldn't agree more with (4). Without having explored the question far and wide, I'd say

- Public entities have no right to obscurity except in very specific cases like access to and storage of peoples' private data. That implies that certain data is stored in a way it can only be decrypted by the owner or an authorized third party (owner issues a key to th.p.), while other data is completely open.

- Private entities, on the other hand, have complete protection (freedom of speech|thought|religion, yadda yadda).

- Private-public entities like multinational corporations (the tiny general store 'round the corner is private, not sure where to draw the line; when there's more than one branch/subsidiary?) have a mix of those rights, i.e. perfect, undiscriminating accountability and transparency has to be possible should enough doubt crop up about the company's honesty.

(1)(5)(6)(7) Yes. Better communication, more honesty and personal responsibility certainly go a long way to improving the situation and empowering the people.

(8) Very important. Personally, I don't engage much in my local politics other than reading the paper and voting. The only demos I've ever been on where against TTIP, which is as much an economic issue as it is a political one. I like to say "Do you part and hope for the best", and my part is in software. In the mean time, let's hope nothing craps out.

"Listen more, understand those you disagree with" is crucial. There is disagreement, so obviously there's a problem somewhere that the other side doesn't know about. Understanding the other side means understanding other peoples' problems, means having a broader view of the situation, means having better tools to do something about it. Good communication is key, but honesty is crucial. To quote Wilde: "Anybody can say charming things and try to please and to flatter, but a true friend always says unpleasant things, and does not mind giving pain. Indeed, if he is a really true friend he prefers it, for he knows that then he is doing good."
I agree. Something like QML is sort-of what we need, but that is still too closely tied to C++ and not mature enough.

I'm hopeful about Go GUIs though. Go is an easy language to use and performant enough for complex GUI apps. Google abandoned gxui but it seems like they are backing Shiny at least a little.

Not just the site owners either. I'm guessing not many people on here saw the early days of Gamergate, but one of the things that stoked the fire was the Internet Archive kindly erasing their archives of other websites' pages discussing the mess on request from a person being discussed after their hosting providers were leaned on to give them the boot, changing the past to fit the correct official narrative. It's one of the reasons why no-one involved with that uses them for archiving anything. (Wasn't doxing or anything like that, just explaining what happened was enough.)

In our modern hyperpoliticized era, one has to wonder if the Internet Archive is actually trustworthy for anything contentious anymore.

> Git is full of some of the worst design decisions in modern software history.

It's also full of some of the best software design decisions. The internals of Git are simple and elegant and they work like a charm. There have been very little changes to the internal workings since the first commit of Git.

I agree that the user interface is inconsistent, ugly and hard to grasp. But if you have a solid understanding of the internals, with the help of the git manpages it's pretty easy to achieve what you want.

There's software that's intended to work like a black box, just poke around the user interface and you can get stuff done. Git is not one of those. You need to understand the internal model, accept that the UI sucks, embrace the manpages, quit whining and get shit done.

What I find very disturbing is the response I've got from some people in regards to signing the petition against the legislation.

"I don't want to sign that, I will probably end up on some watchlist".

This is incredible, to admit this you are basically admitting that we no longer live in a free democracy. If you cannot sign a petition regarding basic civil liberties without ending up on a watchlist then you do not live in a free democracy. Upon me telling them this, I am usually then greeted with a shrug.

> only a small subset of people taking "substances" ever have that problem

still you can't say there is no problem at all.

Lets count: the population of Finland is 5.5 million; 18000 cases makes 1/3 percent of the general population - a significant number (not known if all cases have been considered by this study, lets assume they have - i would assume that half of the cases would not be reported at all, but lets skip that), lets assume that five percent of the population have taken drugs - then 1/15 users would get one.
