I don't think if you plan ahead it would be to disaster to maintain. We have tools like QT or Skia that help you create native cross platform UI-s. I agree that the dev experience is a light-year ahead with CSS+JS, I've done it before, but once you go down that road, it's close to impossible to switch without a serious rewrite. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but something to keep in mind.
Those MIOpen benchmarks are a bit dubious, since MIOpen is AMDs own deep learning framework. It's unlikely that code written by AMD is optimal for the Nvidia hardware.

To be realistic you need to compare AMD hardware running MIOpen to NV hardware running a framework backed by cuDNN.
I've heard the new "Precision Touchpad" based devices are much better than the current crop of bad trackpads. They are on all "Surface" branded products and some OEMs. I haven't used any personally. YMMV.
Stress definitely matters, but honestly you're probably just not eating right (not your fault, most diet advice is rubbish). Type-2 diabetes is mostly about insulin resistance, and you can become insulin resistant without necessarily being fat just by eating things that provoke a strong insulin response. All foods have an insulin response, but generally speaking, from high to low: sugar, refined carbohydrates, unrefined carbohydrates, protein, fat. If you limit things that have a high insulin response you'll probably improve!
I think there is a technological argument that the article doesn't quite get too, as well: the use of subwoofers as an "instrument" to play/score for. Admittedly, theaters have had subwoofers for a long time, but I think its actually the pick up of subwoofers in home theaters and stereo systems that has pushed the trend (in hip-hop/R&B/rap/dubstep) far enough to convince somewhat slow to adapt theatrical composers. Inception seems like the point where Hans Zimmer finally realized he could score for the subwoofers, and in finding a new toy he pushed it to an extreme. It's been interesting to see what film composers (especially, Hans Zimmer) have been doing with subwoofers since Inception, but of course its hard to escape the orbit of that first extreme try and how iconic it was.
This really doesnt matter for deep learning. There is a large ecosystem built around CUDA. Unless AMD becomes CUDA compatible (they are working on it but not there yet) and I can install Torch/TF and run it on my AMD GPU, I will stick with NVIDIA.

I am all for choice, but AMD has a lot of catching up to do.
I wouldn't hold my breath, the 1080 TI is coming out and NVIDIA would just drop the price on the 1080, they've done pretty much exactly the same thing with the Fury.

And AMD will have again a very expensive card to manufacture GDDR5/5x vs HBM2 with high power consumption based on the fact that the RX480 draws nearly as much power as a 1080 atm, and HBM2 isn't exactly power efficient (unlike HBM1 vs GDDR5), HBM2 is nice but the power requirement currently increase with the density, and it leaks voltage pretty badly with 4 stacks...
So it correlates either to a lazy developer or a really good developer? That isn't much of a correlation.
> That's not the point -- the problem is that conflating technical and non-technical definitions is a way to avoid having that discussion.

On this we can 100% agree.

Choosing "bias" to mean "statistical bias", and then actively ignoring anything else that is currently called bias, is an extremely political choice.

Are you seriously asserting that naming clashes validate political opinions, or that some large group of people's political opinions would suddenly change if only they knew the statistical meaning of bias?

hi @kt9, in the kubernetes dashboard, when adding an existing cluster, under "Select a Provider" there is AWS. that means that it also support ECS? I am not aware of AWS supporting kubernetes directly. I have a k8s cluster running on an aws autoscaling group, but I guess in that case I should just click "Other". What's the AWS option for then?
Several of my professors at the University of Maryland, in the late 70s, had connections to the institutions that had IMPs, like NBS (now NIST), the Pentagon, Mitre, etc. If you asked nicely, they would give you the dialup numbers for the IMP/TIP so you could play on the ARPANET. I had an account at MIT-AI that I accessed that way.
They either get CUDA or compatibility with all major frameworks. And they'd better be cheaper or faster than NVIDIA.

I didn't know this part - Darwin is a mensch!

"Wallace sent his ideas to the English naturalist Charles Darwin, with whom he often exchanged letters. As it happened, Darwin had been working for 20 years on his own theory of natural selection, partly inspired by his 1835 visit to the Galápagos Islands.

Darwin had not published his ideas, because he was afraid of a backlash. He quickly realised that Wallace's discoveries matched up with his own, and resolved to take the plunge. He decided to present both their papers at the same time, so that both men would get credit for having independently discovered evolution.

In the immediate aftermath, they both became famous. But after Darwin published his book On the origin of species by means of natural selection in 1859, he became known as the man who discovered evolution. Most people forgot about Wallace."
They used to have a pretty good dashboard, and then they figured out that they messed it up with the current one. It is so damn slow. Many times I wonder if the request went through or not.
The Rather case really changed my view on the mainstream media. It isn't just that they went on-air with something without any fact checking, which even the most cursory fact-checking would show to be fabricated, because it fit the narrative that they wanted to tell. It's that not only them, but the entire rest of the mainstream media, continued to defend it, even as the evidence accumulated that it was not only fake, but a really lazy, badly-done fake. Aren't these companies supposed to be in competition? Shouldn't they call each other out for blatantly biased, shoddy journalism? I guess pushing their chosen narrative is more important than that.

Really makes you wonder how many other con jobs they've tried to sell us, before the tools existed for independent parties to get their own research out to the public. And now they're telling us to beware of "fake news", as if they haven't been publishing it themselves for decades at least.

Russians already consider the leaked Panama documents a Western "doxx." The Panama leak, if you recall, showed that one of Putin's friends, a humble musician otherwise, was holding accounts worth $2bn. Western media, and opposition media in Russia, ran the story for weeks as proof of Putin's corruption.

Kremlin predictably called it a Western hoax, and an act of cyber war. I wouldn't be surprised if they ~actually~ viewed it as such. If that's the case, the DNC leak might well have been motivated, in part, as their retaliatory strike.
Not sure I've read anything about this, it always seems to be going on year round, especially when toolsets become increasing difficult to work with exclusively on mac. vmware fusion on mac is pretty piss poor, amount of ram on a mac laptop is usually the biggest concern I'd have for doing virtualization or setting up a bunch of vm's for simulating deployments, 16gb vs say 32 & 64gb ram configurations on newer laptops is a huge deal in my opinion towards migrating away from macos.

I'm skeptical that off-main-thread I/O is a panacea for high I/O latency. It's certainly a boon; to be sure - but at the end of the day you want that I/O to complete. Showing more frames while you wait for that I/O to complete is going to paper over (very) small delays, but even with a fluid GFX, an app can still feel frustratingly slow.

In fact, smooth but overlong animations can feel more laggy simply because the time it takes for the phone to do what you actually wanted is longer.

If 4k of I/O take 16ms or more with great regularity (and p99 seems rather frequent to me), you're going to regularly hit high multiples of that in any kind of mildly intensive workload (which writes a lot more than once, and a lot more than 4k). And at high multiples of that, no amount of off-thread I/O is going to be able to hide that latency.

So sure: asynchronicity will make slowless a little less ugly. And that's about it.

(On the other hand, fsync is a pretty-heavy handed tool, and he doesn't show the latency for non synced I/O - so maybe the problem is just that software is too conservative - I mean, how often do phones crash, and how bad is losing a small amount of data then?)
In terms of policy, anyone can provide hospice care with a similar outcome, but that's not true of parenting.

We had this exact same discussion at my workplace (Large, UK-owned engineering multinational) a while ago; turned out a lot of people expected long leaves to have a detrimental effect on their career, but no-one had anything except assumption to go on. My own experience (working in Scandinavia) suggest that at least around here, career and leave is mostly a non-issue.

I am currently staying at home with our nine-month-old daughter; my wife started working again when she was seven months old. I am now on paid leave until May next, and have the following observations:

a) While my leave is of a slightly unusual duration (Father normally takes 10 weeks of leave or so - not 28 as I did), it is not unheard of. My line manager actually claims to prefer longer leaves, and I believe him.

Reason? Much simpler to plan when you know employee such-and-such will be off work for, say, six months rather than just a couple of months. You might even get away with grabbing a temporary replacement from another department or a temp agency, whereas if I had a shorter leave, he'd just be told to split my work load on my colleagues and stop whining until I was back in the lab.

b) To the extent that the top brass ever talks to their minions, anecdotal evidence suggests envy more than derision. My leaves (this being the third one) has come up in conversation with executives on a couple of occasions, and response has been more along the lines of 'I wish I could get away with doing that!' or 'Good for you, I wouldn't last a month!' than 'WTF?'

Heck, during my previous leave, I was even promoted in my absence! (A minor one, but still...)

c) My male colleagues are supportive, though most choose shorter leaves. The most skepticism has come from female colleagues - who, while amused that I take as much leave as I do, worry about what my wife really thinks about it - after all, society is biased towards females taking care of infants, the first year or two of their lives traditionally being seen as the mother's domain. (No-one has voiced any concerns about the children, though - only about my wife...)

How is the battery life on the Surface book/pro? All I about it sounds pretty horrible. Especially compared to the 2011 X220s I use all the time, which have 15+ hours I wonder what people really get from these MS things. I don't really care about the OS, but the last Macbook Pro's I bought had crap battery life; the best was the Air 11 inch for me but they don't make that anymore...

I've seen those ads. It's pretty unlikely that it will substantially increase your cancer risk. I would also mention that while there is some science behind their claims, the studies they put on their site are insufficient (n=120 people, t=8 weeks of study) to make any medically valid claims, and the efficacy of the treatment (consuming NAD+ and plant sterols) hasn't been clinically proven to have a positive effect on human health. They also don't claim the participants saw a benefit, just that their NAD+ levels were elevated

I am personally bullish on the thought process behind NAD+ [1], but I probably wouldn't buy a consumer product for it today without some serious clinical proof. Caveat Emptor.

Swift 3.1 Release Process
As someone else suggested, think of it like parallel construction in law enforcement: an agency already knows someone is guilty, but they know it from illegal surveillance they can't use in court. So they give a tip to an unsuspecting officer to watch out for a car with a broken tail light at a particular location/time, and in the course of the traffic stop the officer finds drugs in the car, then they claim that's how they found out (despite the officer only being there because they already knew).

If I'm reading this correctly, out of date versions of chrome (>10 weeks old) simply weren't loading sites like https://www.amazon.com/

This exact issue was affecting my girlfriend's machine a few days ago. I restarted chrome to update and the problem went away. At the time, I just thought it was an overly pushy new feature by google to force people to update.

The hypertext. The names of the band members can be links that lead to the articles on individual members.

This has nothing to do with React. This is a JavaScript library called Inferno – the title makes sense to people in the JavaScript scene.
The startup I'm part of uses ML to predict which end users are likely to churn for our customers.

We work with B2B and B2C SAAS, mobile apps and games, and e-commerce. For each of them, it is a generalized solution customized to allow them to know which end users are most at risk of churning. The amount of time range varies depending on their customer lifecycles, but for longest lifecycles we can, with high precision, predict churn more than 6 months ahead of actual attrition.

Even more important than "who is at risk?" is "why are they at risk?". To answer this we highlight patterns and sets of behavior that are positively and negatively associated with churn, so that our customers have a reason to reach out, and are armed with specific behaviors they want to encourage, discourage, or modify.

This enables our customers to try to save their accounts / users. This can work through a variety of means, campaigns being the most common. For our B2B customers, the account managers have high confidence about whom they need to contact and why.

All of this includes regular model retraining, to take into account new user events and behaviors, new product updates, etc. We are confident in our solution and offer our customers a free trial to allow us to prove ourselves.

I can't share details, but we just signed our biggest contract yet, as of this morning. :)

You are not the only one.

Skimming the ticket comments, it smells like an idea that, ten weeks after Google's compile, a given release will start throwing SSL cert handshake alarms for at least some major websites.

Anybody that does not permit Chrome to auto-update might anticipate many intrusive SSL security warnings, every 10 weeks or less.

While you may have downloaded and installed Chrome on a given date, the download's compilation timestamp could be any point up to ten weeks in the past?

I don't think there exists any evidence that high fructose corn syrup is much worse than sucrose. They are pretty close to the same thing.

HFCS is 45-58% glucose, and 42-55% fructose, and sugar is 50% glucose and 50% fructose. There is one more bond in sugar, but enzymes in your gut break that bond apart very quickly.

> Not sure if AMD is going to go all HBM on all it's high performance GPUs in 2017, or only offer one or two models with it.

It would make perfect sense to have some GDDR5X-based medium-range GPUs. HBM2 will be expensive, too expensive for the top of the medium range (and the same applies for NVIDIA). GDDR5X has plenty of room for improvement over GDDR5 and by next year they should have it figured out better.
it could also have been built-in build-time time-bomb.

I don't know about working but no matter how much money I/will have I'll always write code. Even if it is for solving trivialities in my everyday life with no hope of commercializing them.
It's a lot more complicated than that. Even a consistent prediction will generally only give you a small edge, and turning a small edge into real money is incredibly difficult. Just like ideas aren't worth much in startups, execution is a bottleneck on most otherwise-reasonable trading ideas.

There are a lot of problems:

- transaction costs quickly eat into your margins

- regulatory compliance requires a lot of careful work, with non-trivial penalties for mistakes

- different exchanges and countries have different rules

- trading across different timezones is difficult

- synchronizing your actions across multiple venues is incredibly hard

- you might need more leverage than you can get as an individual

- sourcing and cleaning the up-to-date data you need to actually trade on a model (vs back-testing) requires intense work and is expensive

- since your edge is probabilistic in nature, you need a particular risk tolerance (backed by enough cash to survive runs of bad luck, of course)

A lot of successful trading firms live and die more on their infrastructure and execution prowess than they do on brilliant insights and predictions. Even if your prediction or model is good, you might simply not be able to use it because you don't have access to the capital and infrastructure you'd need.

This is probably Numerai's core value proposition: they have an open system for people to submit models (ie predictions) and then use their existing infrastructure to actually execute the best ones.
