Ya. You can only be in a H1B for 6 years, but combined with an F1 and OPT, could be longer. I was just thinking about working visas.

You have to get a green card after your second work visa or go back home, that's the choice. Unlike other countries where you can work on a working visa indefinitely and never even qualify for permanent residency.

I have recently been running FF in parallel with Chrome. If I'm using non-Google properties, that don't use bad extensions, I quite like using FF. It's not quite as stable, but it "feels" faster and lighter.
I think "AI" does still have meaning, in that the goal of AGI hasn't gone away. Yes, any goal that's tangential to AGI probably shouldn't be called AI. But as long as the constituent tasks needed by AI (vision, learning, speech in/out, etc) continue to improve rapidly, especially due to advances in a single technology like DL, it's inevitable and IMO appropriate that the umbrella moniker used to describe DL and its impacts remains "AI".

Ask HN: Is there any matrix way to learn coding?
I want to develop many daily habits, such as running, reading, or exercise every day, but all difficult to stick to, I know someone, such as zurkburg, who can insist on what they want to do, so I wonder is there any systemic way i can develop a habit?

I want to learn programming language in just seconds. Just insert chip and boom you get expert in the language.
This is only for low memory devices. From the linked article -

"All the improvements discussed above reduce the Chrome 55 overall memory consumption by up to 35% on low-memory devices compared to Chrome 53. Other device segments will only benefit from the zone memory improvements."

December is upon us. Pro tip for all those terrible $10 limit gift exchanges you'll be forced to suffer through. Lottery tickets. You'll be viewed as the genius you truly are. Unlike your inevitable family gatherings, where you are perpetually viewed as the kid who stuck a potato bug up his nose at five years old (which will be reference ten times at dinner alone). But seriously, holiday season got you feeling like you're in a rut? Maybe it's time for a bigger change. Consider making a move to a new career path, or transitioning to a growing organization doing important and exciting work... NCC Group!

If you’re a tinkerer, you enjoy breaking more than building, or someone who wonders “why” and ends up down the rabbit hole 36 hours later with a disassembled air conditioning unit surrounding them... we’d love to hear from you! Our process welcomes those with years of experience, as well as those with little to no direct experience in what we do.

The bottom line: if you love security and research, NCC Group just may be a perfect fit for you.

What do we do exactly? Penetration testing, security analysis, and cutting-edge research into current technologies and attacks (breaking things). You spend most of your day thinking about security systems and how they can break. You get to be creative and have a lot of freedom to be clever while learning new technologies at a very fast pace. Engagements are usually 2-4 weeks long and in a year you will be exposed to 15-20 products and technology stacks. Your work will typically initiate person-months of security improvements in products millions of people use. You will have access to senior engineers/architects and your findings/ideas will be heard by senior decision makers. You will have enormous impact in making the software people use safer.
All of our consultants are also security researchers, with dedicated research time. Not too shabby!

The Security Behind the Birth of Zcash
As I understand it, you propose a right to "conservation of prosperity": if something is prosperous now, we should use force to ensure that it remains so in perpetuity, and are morally responsible for the harm that comes from not doing so.

How do you decide what to freeze, and how do you decide which year to freeze it in?

I could argue we had a similar moral imperative to prevent the destruction of the livelihoods of horse-drawn carriage drivers. What if you had made this argument successfully in 1890 and the auto industry was never allowed to exist in the first place? Would you acknowledge the same responsibility for the nonexistence of Detroit that you assign to free trade now?

What is "new this time" is that computers/machines can see and hear and even speak, whether we call it AI or "Deep Learning" or "Machine learning". So there is going to be more impact from Vision/Voice based applications rather than data analytics/predictions. Eg. Self Driving Cars, Medical Diagnosis, Video Analytics, Autonomous machines/Robotics, Voiced based interactions. All of these combined could be as disruptive as Internet itself.
I think realistically in many cases the buggedness will still favour many smaller functions - if for no other reason than they must all be named.

The higher level function is then easy to read. The lower level functions get a name that can be checked more easily against an implementation if needed.
Clozure looks very interesting, thank you! Got it up and running in a few minutes, and the docs look promising. I think it wasn't around last time I tried to seriously explore CL. Good to see more options!
I'm sorry but I'm not buying it.

ML companies are already tackling tasks which have major cost implications:

https://deepmind.com/blog/deepmind-ai-reduces-google-data-ce...

http://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2016/08/computers-trou...

Those are just the two I had off the top of my head. We apply ML tasks for object/scene classification and they blow away humans. Not only that we're already structuring a GAN for "procedural" 3D model generation - in theory this will decimate the manual 3D reconstruction process.
I would like to see a SPA persistence framework that is based on the Command pattern, so that it can give you an automatically-generated backend, Operational Transformation-based collaboration, offline functionality, and undo/redo.
It's all relative... if that seems fine to those who go in then I guess it worked well enough!
As someone in more of a systems architect role, directly this week I touched 2. Indirectly I dealt with another 2-3 (more along the lines of consultation)
Hmm. When API naming is good, you shouldn't need to be reading at the low level much, so IMO whatever makes it easy to skim for maintenance is the way to go.
Take the manager role. It's the hardest to get between the 2. There are many great companies and a zillion individual contributor positions out there. Stay in that company for 1-2 years and apply at a better company as a manager. Stupid recruiters will look at your current title. So either move horizontally or vertically...

This article needs a (1986) in the title, at least according to the handwriting on the 1st page.
This overshoots the target. It's like saying that we use algebra and therefore =/= AI.

LR and general regression schemes are captured in supervised learning methods. So yes, the systems use linear regression as a fundamental attribute but build on them significantly.
It's probably a play, similar to the name of CoffeeScript
I work at a large pharma, and from what I've seen in this business and anywhere else where data is important (like R&D), deep learning is perceived to be revolutionary.

I think most of the rise in DL's corporate mindshare is the potential it has for disruption of the status quo. Business folks hate game changing tech. It destabilizes the priorities and practices they understand, and dishevels the grand hierarchy of corporate command and control they know and love.

If DL really does reinvent any significant fraction of their part of the business, they know 1) they won't know what to do in response, and 2) their daily competition is going to get even more challenging until a new status quo emerges. And both of which may cause them to lose their tenuous position/status in the company hierarchy, much less, lose their very job.
"The article argued that the conventional thinking on nutrition that we’d been living with since the 1970s was likely to be incorrect, that we should be avoiding refined carbohydrates and sugars, not eating low-fat diets, and that maybe it was the infamous Dr. Robert Atkins, of all people, whose advice we should be taking, at least if we are fatter than we prefer, as an ever-increasing number of Americans surely are."

That sentence should be taken out and shot.

I wonder if it's at all similar to go, which is considered by philosophers like Gilles deleuze to be the "war game" part excellence. Go, at least, closely resembles che Guevara's recipe for winning a guerrilla war: to encircle and to not be encircled. Definitely going to look deeper into this!
I am a computer science undergrad . And stuff like this is very useful. Does anyone have links to other open courses like this?
I don't see any sources linked in the article, nor any quotes from any officials or excerts from any documents. Not saying this article is bunk, but what's the foundation for these claims?
That's fine, but you seemed confused about how the argument fit together rather than interested in arguing about the claims it's built on.

Uh, no, if several hundred thousand people were murdered, that would be a massacre.

If they left because they were afraid of being murdered (or otherwise violated in their physical safety), that would be ethnic cleansing.

Do you not believe this applies to those who left Detroit, or Algeria? Really? Is it not the case that every country and major city outside East Asia contains areas where residing would endanger you? Including... most of Detroit? Could you seriously be this good and innocent a person?

Note also that it takes a lot less physical menace to drive out Ward and June Cleaver, than Dylan "YOLO" Hipster. Of course, Ward and June were privileged...

Lisp is a fantastic language and well worth learning.

But these days I pick a language with strong static types every time if I have the choice. I know you can use them with Lisp too to some extent but it's not the same as a language built from the ground up around types.
Why would they? Do you have any idea how much money a vuln like that would be worth? You've threatened to kill people on twitter and you think someone would turn something like that over to the team out of charity?

You're delusional.

I've never seen a million-dollar exploit, but DAMN if this wouldn't be close.
Tawk.to is free and good. Also does pretty solid analytics.
Or, the quality of all cars sold in the US increased, including American cars. I suspect that the number of cars sold per capita, regardless of origin, has remained very roughly the same since Detroit's better days.

Those executives may have done a great job, improving the quality of their cars to the point that they can sell as many as they do today, in a wider competitive environment.
(Some) NVMe statistics are specified as 128-bit integers. Not that you need to operate on them, necessarily, or that they'll practically ever exceed 64-bit values, but they are.
Honest question: given you're saying this, do you know modern C++ in the first place? In other words, are you speaking with knowledge? Or without?
>some other things very right to compensate...

Yea, like letting people compare "0x0a" == "10" and have it return true. Sure. I can imagine some newbie somewhere looking at that and go "You can do that? That is soooo coool".

A lot of such things, that traded off sanity and security for ease of use made it popular. But that does not mean it got those things "right".

I am ignoring other inflammatory things you said, since I don't expect any better from someone who thinks php is hot shit. It is utter crap, and no one should have to start their programming career with utter crap like php when there are so many alternatives.
In Clojure map also works on hashes and sets. In keeping with the previous discussion, there's also only one variety of map in Clojure. It's this orthogonality of operations and datatypes that I think is Clojure going in the right direction.

None of which is to say that Clojure isn't standing on the shoulders of giants.
That isn't the definition of ethnic cleansing.

I'm a Program Manager, currently manage 16-20 projects at any given time. My developers work 3-5 depending on the nature. I'm usually fighting management to keep them on the lower end of that.
But you do want to compare GUIDs. And hash them, which can involve shifting, adding, xor'ing, multiplying, remaindering, etc.
It's hard to measure.

I would say I am currently leading three projects, one I am the solo developer, the other two is mainly architecture and code review.

I am also involved in the monitoring/installation/maintance of an elasticsearch cluster and a rabbitmq server.
Firefox easily handles upwards of 50 tabs while Chrome keeps crashing most of the times for me and takes up a lot of load time.

FF extensions are really great compared to Chrome (apart from some Chorome Apps). My only remaining gripe with Firefox is the tab spinning problem (it seems to improve after every new build. I'm on nightly.).
Avoiding pointers to arrays is nice.

This is the big annoyance in Golang with it's net.IP type - it's `type IP []byte`, which means you can write ip1 == ip2 and you can't pass by value easily, nor use it as a map key.

I've ended up inventing my own type for that a lot of the time as a struct wit static fields, since those you can copy around and do 1:1 comparisons.

Though to be honest I'd be super happy if there was a drop-in varint type, or you could trivially have the compiler calculate instructions for a arbitrary fixed size ints.
Double click home. That defaults to voice. Long clicking also takes me to search.
As a side note, what are some use cases for 128 floats?
Do you have any proof? These seem to be pretty big accusations.

That's an interesting way of viewing it, I guess it applies to JavaScript as well. There is a lot of discussion regarding how the Javascript community is re-inventing the wheel, but I guess once enough impetus arives to a language then re-tooling is inevitable.

Interesting. I've yet to hear a Moores law is dead argument, so perhaps I should watch the video before commenting further. But the fact that most of the chip is turned off, doesn't falsify the fact that most of it still exists. Cooling it properly is a separate problem independent of computation no?
I think this is the best comment.

AI will find it's way into specific areas in which the ROI is very significant, and though those will be hard to predict, I agree with the above.

It will make a huge impact in some areas.

Others, not so much.

It's funny that not a single person mentioned 'big data'.

Big data was all the rage for the last few years, and it would seem like an intuitively obvious fit, not? I don't think so.

I think it's a stretch to see how AI help's the gap design new clothes, or even optimizes sales approach. I suggest it will be things like customer service as Randy indicated.

And yes, truckers will be the first to go.
So what will the Javascript revolution of 3D printing look like?

If I understand your point, I'd suggest that it may apply best to the use of DL for low level AI -- seeing, hearing/generating speech, and recognizing/ navigating/ interpreting complex signals of other kinds. There classification is secondary to modeling the many subsymbolic facets endemic to raw analog signals.

I suspect DL will eventually settle into a less vaunted role in the historical saga of AI than it portends now. And that role may well be the 'grounding' of sensory experience -- the modeling of the world into something perceptually and cognitively manageable, like Plato's shadows on a cave wall.
I appreciate your efforts to correct the record ;)
If you can't already hash/compare an array of bytes, something terrible has happened with your language design.
Rust offers non-allocating fixed-sized arrays, so a GUID could be a (wrapper around) [u8; 16] and an IPv6 address could be [u16; 8].
Last time this troll popped up, [1] they claimed that I told people to kill themselves. Which I absolutely do not. Now apparently it's threatening to kill other people, which I most certainly have not.

They claimed that I have deleted said tweets so that people wouldn't see them (which also doesn't make much sense) and that they didn't grab a screenshot (which also wouldn't make sense given that it's easy to edit the HTML of a webpage and take a screenshot.)

So uh, yeah.

I wasn't able to find any real justification beyond (a) one vague mention of "some algorithms... such as certain cryptographic algorithms" and (b) the fact that clang supports it. Can you point to something more specific? Justification (b) in particular smells bad to me.

You can store a bitboard for western chess perfectly with 64-bit integers. Some other chess variants(like Chinese Chess, or Shogi) need 128 bits for the same techniques, since the board is larger.

I haven't used it, but Julia lets you declare any(?) fixed size bitset. Which would probably come in handy for Go.
The author's claim is this, and if true there is merit to listening --- Indeed there is rarely merit to not listening. Science is all about observation and probability. EDIT: although clever political framing can skew naive readers away from truths, which is one of the article's meta topics. ---

"I believe climate change is real and that human emissions of greenhouse gases risk justifying action, including a carbon tax. But my research led me to a conclusion that many climate campaigners find unacceptable: There is scant evidence to indicate that hurricanes, floods, tornadoes or drought have become more frequent or intense in the U.S. or globally. In fact we are in an era of good fortune when it comes to extreme weather. This is a topic I’ve studied and published on as much as anyone over two decades. My conclusion might be wrong, but I think I’ve earned the right to share this research without risk to my career."
Why would that be? Unless you're frequently running out of RAM and swapping to disk, RAM usage shouldn't correlate to disk usage much, right?
I can't believe that I (apparently) have to say this, but I

1. Would certainly not threaten to kill anyone on twitter.

2. Would certainly not threaten to kill someone for reporting a security vulnerability in Rust.

In fact, as I said above, I would prefer that people report them, so that everyone using Rust can be safe from vulnerabilities.
well, you can already do operations on 128bit of data that represents and int as well, but that's a kind of silly thing to say because higher level abstractions are just about making things easier. so now you can do it in 1 operation rather than several; if that's all you gain, then it's still worth it
I wasn't involved in the discussion really, so I don't have anything off-hand.

I can see why (b) might smell a bit bad, but think of it this way: we share a backend with clang, and so if they think support is mature enough to ship, then that's a very positive sign.
On the other hand, the claim in the following quotation is logically flawed. 'True' and 'no evidence' are, importantly, not opposites:

'I was right to question the IPCC’s 2007 report, which included a graph purporting to show that disaster costs were rising due to global temperature increases. The graph was later revealed to have been based on invented and inaccurate information, as I documented in my book “The Climate Fix.” The insurance industry scientist Robert-Muir Wood of Risk Management Solutions had smuggled the graph into the IPCC report. He explained in a public debate with me in London in 2010 that he had included the graph and misreferenced it because he expected future research to show a relationship between increasing disaster costs and rising temperatures.

When his research was eventually published in 2008, well after the IPCC report, it concluded the opposite: “We find insufficient evidence to claim a statistical relationship between global temperature increase and normalized catastrophe losses.” Whoops.'
Let me ask you a favor. Read the article, then come back and let us know if you think your post was fair.
