The Chinese government values stability above all else. This is why they will also not hesitate to detain lawyers asking tough questions or steamroller physically protesting activists with tanks, because their calculus is that it's the lesser evil compared to the tens of millions of dead in the various revolutions and upheavals of the past 100 years.

Of course, stability is also quite useful for preserving power and enjoying the fruits of dubious wealth, so here the moral imperative dovetails neatly with the personal interests of party cadres.

zlib does not use crc at all (zip does, but zlib doesn't). It uses adler-32 which shares most properties with crc32 (prob of missing a random error is almost the same, error patterns are easy to analyze and are 16-bit additive and independent of data).

The attitude that "deep learning solves everything and we shouldn't bother with other techniques" is primarily one of laziness. There are many types of problems out there that call for many different types of approaches, but it's easier to just declare your favorite is best than it is to continue one's education and development.

I can think of reams of problems that convex or heavily-priored approaches are typically used for that are yet not even possible to connect to the machine-learning structure, yet you would claim that somehow deep learning has superseded fields it's not even connected to? This is unbridled arrogance.

re "The subtler arguments against socialism are not amenable to sound bites." History is unsubtle - especially where communism is concerned. Many arguments can be put forward to discredit it, but none are really neede. There's another couple soundbites (more accurately, aphorisms) for you.

The (lack of recognition of the) unconscious mind cripples socialism. Interestingly, Christianity and Buddhism both sneak it in, in one roundabout way or another; the next social movement needs to start right there, with the unconscious mind - tackling the conundrum of our deeper motivations including sexual selection. That might be possible. Sexual selection (often aided by our unconscious) overpowers every version of socialism so far. We need a version that can cope with that extreme pressure on human action.
It's not the existence of "farther right wing" media that puts fox near the center, though that is suggestive. It's the fact that fox more closely aligns with mainstream opinion.

Which really shows how the game has gotten so much harder. Ten years ago someone playing a fundamentally solid deterministic strategy could print money online. And in many low stakes casino games that is probably still true.
Absolutely not. Certainly, if you believe this to be the case, you can go make a $1 billion selling this software to the oil industry since full wave inversion for seismic imaging problems, one example of an inverse problem, is still an open and very difficult problem.

ML and inverse problems solve two completely different problems. Really, ML should be called more accurately empirical modeling since we're creating a generic model from empirical data. In inverse problems, we choose an underlying model and then fit this model to our data. The difference between the two is that empirical models use generic models whereas inverse problems typically use models based on physical laws like continuum mechanics. Because of this, we often don't care about the end model in an inverse problem, but the variables that parameterize it because they have physical meaning. Generally, in ML, the parameters don't have physical meaning. The similarity between the two is that we're using an optimization engine to match some kind of model to our data.

To reiterate, in an inverse problem, the variables we solve for typically have a physical meaning. For example, in full wave inversion, we often model the problem using the elastic equations and we solve for the tensor that relates stress and strain. This is a 6x6 symmetric matrix (21 variables) at every point in a 3-D mesh. Side note, these meshes are large, so the resulting optimization problem has millions if not billions of variables. This matrix represents the material at that location. In this context, we don't need the end model with all these parameters plugged in. We're just going to look at the material directly because it tells us where stuff like where the oil is. In the context of the optimization, we will run the simulation, but, really, we don't need a simulator when we're done.

Now, in ML, imagine we did something simple like a multilayer perceptron. Yes, there are more complicated models, but it doesn't matter in this context. What is the physical meaning of the weight matrix and offsets? Saying it's the neurons in the brain is a lie. What if we're modeling acoustic data? Now, if we're just interested in creating a box that maps inputs to outputs, it doesn't matter. However, going back to the seismic world, mapping inputs to outputs just means mapping acoustic sources to travel times. No one cares about this. We want to know the rocks in the ground.

As such, ML and inverse problems use some similar machinery. Specifically, they both use optimization tools. However, they're used in very different places. Presentations like the one in the article are important because solving inverse problems at scale is really, really hard.

Coffee is a combination of the following ingreedients:

* Water
* Beans filled with caffine

Water can be recived from a good filtering system [0], mixed with a choosen water profile (common development of breweries), run through an electric water heater, taken to tempature of 195F to 205F, then finally pushed through the ground beans.

An espresso is usually steamed so you'd do the same process but use forced steam then run the evaporated gass through a condensation colum.

It's very doable and probably would yield more ROI/cup because you'll better be able to use time, power, and grindes to better deliver. Also the user experiance of walking up to a wall, clicking a few tick boxes, swiping a card and instantly getting some liquid spit into a cup that is exactly what you ordered sounds a lot nicer for some people.

It'd probably need a few iterations to get it right, but I'd be willing to pay somewhere in the range of $25/mo for something that published or linked directly to the source material that is driving the current news cycle along with a succinct summary with no commentary.

Something vaguely HN-like but for all current news topics, not just tech news.
Yes this is a problem that certainly deserves attention.

But the education issues also apply to the other five in six children who do have food security. The education problem is one that affects anyone who does not have access to the best private schools.

When I say fix education, I don't mean teach people programming or whatever skills or knowledge that might give them a marginal leg up. Those things are becoming increasingly less valuable.

I mean teach people how to be well adjusted people, teach them soft skills of empathy and understanding others, teach them why and how to continuously improve themselves, teach them how to identify areas where they can contribute to society without waiting for a teacher or boss to tell them exactly what to do.

Without these abilities, more and more will fall into the poverty trap as the need for worker bees diminishes.

Indeed. In the context of a publicly-funded healthcare system (which Australia has), the direct health costs of alcohol consumption do end up being 'socialised'. While my (minority) view is that this argument doesn't apply to smoking, I think it does for alcohol.

Although, it is much more tricky to estimate the harm caused by alcohol consumption and then levy taxes accordingly. The reason being that unlike smoking, which has very high rates of addiction, the vast majority of people who consume alcohol don't really come to any harm because of it. But 10-15 % of consumers are super badly harmed by it, mostly due to a genetic predisposition to alcoholism. It's similar to gambling in many ways.

Ideally you'd have a tax rate that increases with each additional 'unit' of alcohol purchased within some time period. Obviously this is totally impractical to implement. But before all that there's a pretty basic 'first-step' we should be taking: levying tax on alcohol on a volumetric basis, rather than having different rates for beer, wine, spirits etc. It's the best starting point: simply levy a tax of x cents per milli-litre of alcohol. Only after we've done that can we start getting all fancy with measures like 'pre-commitment', time-varying tax rates (which I personally think are unfeasible) etc.

EDIT: As for negative externalities, putting aside public health, my guess is the two main sources would be (a) drunk, anti-social behaviour and (b) third-party road injuries and fatalities. As to the magnitude of these, I have no idea...
For the most part thought the Android solution matches the iOS solutions there though, devs use GCM. You're however missing the part where app devs have their own servers that have to talk to Apple or Google. You have to trust those 3rd parties too, all Apple or Google does is get notifications from their servers to your phone.

I'm not talking about general push notifications though, nor am I speaking as a developer. I'm speaking as a user, who also wants to connect to ssh, imap, xmpp and sip. The standard Apple/Google model is fine for most push notifications but absolutely not for things like this where a direct connection to a server is something that you as a user want.

That's the part I'm complaining about, not the general push message system, but the system of not being able to keep a persistent connection to a SIP or IMAP server without giving my credentials to a 3rd party so they can handle push and forward that off to Apple or Google.

Interracial marriage has been around for time immemorial and in no way affects the nature of a marriage.

Gay marriage was invented in the past coupled decades by left-wing ideologues. Even in ancient societies where homosexuality was the norm, they didn't have gay marriage. Gay marriage also entirely deviates from the original purpose of marriage: to settle down to monogamy to birth and raise children.

The idea that the two are comparable is pretty ridiculous.

>You cannot know what a free market in education would look like, because we've never tried.

Why doesn't the time before public schools existed constitute a try? Seems to me humanity had centuries to millenia of a free market in education: anyone was free to offer or purchase as much education as they could afford.

It wasn't very nice.

It's a crude fit for human nature, yup; now I beg you suggest a better one. The medieval church was a pretty crude fit too, coping with unconscious motivation fairly well, encouraging innovation not so well. I think we can and will do better one day, but the socialism we have now is far too naive. I think kindness, responsibility and shrewdness about human nature might be put together in one system, but such a working system isn't clear to me, and we aren't doing much to think one up.

According to the guidelines, this story wouldn't normally be "on-topic", as it doesn't fit the "gratifies one's intellectual curiosity" test; it's just grist for political controversy, which HN specifically seeks to avoid.

Sure, there's currently a lot more politics on HN than normal due to current events in the US, but even still, this story doesn't add enough substance to the debate to warrant being accepted.
