Then you are showing content to people who are not paying for it any any way(neither TV Licence nor ads). I mean, I think it wouldn't make any difference whatsoever, but I can see the logic why it's done that way.
The technique of training a model on a lot of data for a long time and then leveraging its sophisticated representation only learning the last layer(s) on small datasets to create accurate models is common practice.
Thanks. Up to this point I too was scratching my head wondering what the fuss was about -- if this was a JavaScript-in-Typescript VM, or what. It's a custom virtual machine for a domain-specific language for filling templates, right?
"shutting down the APIs" - you mean, requiring authentication and adding rate-limiting? which meant that we could get on top of the fail whale and control platform stability?

The APIs have been open and usable all the time.
Hey, looks like it will finally be possible to send pictures in DMs from 3rd party clients... can someone please confirm?
Are there any signs that machine learning libraries and other GPGPU applications will start using the cross platform OpenCL instead of the proprietary Cuda anytime soon? It's a bit of a shame that so many allow themselves to be locked to one vendor, although it's been a while since I used either of them.
From what I understand, the twitter mobile web client uses react and from a quick look at the source, they're using css modules which means the class names are generated at build time.

Considering that most ad blockers work by identifying ads through class names, it would explain why uBlock origin wouldn't work on the mobile site.
The neural network is savage enough to learn "I would have given it zero stars, but that was not an option." Are we humans that predictable?
We increased the rate limits for a range of the API endpoints in the fall last year, in fact. The updates we announced today should also offer more and better data to developers as they scale.

Yes I suppose I'm targetting the protocol a little too much when I should think about what features clients can implement.

I'm certainly happy with the "gossip" approach; I just see it as challenging for some people to adopt when they are coddled with the idea that they can censor their past.
The thing is, I can't tell by a prefix, title, or piece of paper whether you actually put in an effort to obtain any of those things. I should show respect regardless of whether you have them or not. But if someone with any of those demands I treat them in a superior way because they [claim to] have one or more of those they're likely to lose my respect. If you have one of those you still need to put forth the effort to show that they actually mean something.

It's the majority of Christians in America these days. It's not like all those mega-churches are mostly-empty on Sundays: they have thousands of people attending every week and pouring money into the coffers. And it's not like the tiny, little non-megachurches have somehow stuffed thousands of people into those little buildings.
Thanks for your reply.

Currently, no, we're not in the CPC program. But that's something we will definitely consider.

Based on the CPC overview, it seems like the Ubuntu team can make specialized images for folks in the CPC program. Which is great, but a design change here would likely benefit the entire Ubuntu community as a whole. Many cloud providers allow users to save snapshots of their cloud instances - another area where this design issue conflicts with scripting.

Conflicts with the apt/dpkg locks weren't as common in the older Ubuntu server versions that used upstart. My team started to notice this more often after Ubuntu switched to systemd.
Cooling is not easily available in space actually. Its a pretty difficult problem. There's no air to convect away heat so you rely only on radiative cooling which can't move a lot of heat easily.

How do you see this happening in such a relative short amount of time? Who (else) is going to do this? Is our culture predisposed to do this, and, if not, is there a strategy to overcome this culture factor?

What you describe is exactly what practitioners in the field have been doing for years. I think that's why the parent is a bit puzzled at the publication, as it's difficult to understand what's novel.
DeepBreath: Preventing Angry Emails with the Google Natural Language API
Well, since we're talking bikes now on HN, I'll use this thread to see if anyone in SF/Bay area is interested in buying my BMW 2004 R1150RT. I'm leaving the country within a week and still need to sell it. Bike has some visual damage to the left fairing from falling over in the garage, but other than that it's mint and low miles for a 2004 (around 20k).
Not only it's big, but it's a bandwidth hog as well... It's the most hungry app on my phone and I do a lot of web browsing on it. Twitter should not out-consume the web.
Bigotry is a clear violation of HN rules.
200ug are a pretty high dose[1], 10 to 20 times the threshold and your friend's reaction is not really typical even for a bad trip: In most cases people just want to reduce the amount of auditory or visual input they have to process when it is too much - so nothing like starting a fire alarm. Are you sure it was LSD?

I wonder if there was one added step on every post to this network "warning, you are about to make this public without the possibility of removal, are you sure you want to post this?", would that better educate people and make them less likely to make public that which they will later wish was private? I think the solution is also a culture or user education issue. Basically teach people more about how the Internet works and they're less likely to want to post information on it.
Would love examples if you have any.
LLCs are a swim army knife. You can basically do anything, with way less rules and fees.

LLCs can totally offer equity. LLC's are easier to sell than a C corp. Plenty of pluses. If you don't want to get VC funded, you should default to LLC.

Happy user of Jolla and Sailfish.

By the way, the phone runs a real Linux distro. There's Wayland, OpenSSH, bash, systemd (ugh...), RPM's, and a ton of good old commandline software like htop, tmux, python, - heck, even gcc if you feel like rebuilding the kernel :) Native apps are built with Qt & QML. There's very little NIH.

There's also support for Android apps. Many of the apps from F-Droid run OK, and even lots of commercial stuff.

Oh, and the phone is pretty fantastic for all the normal everyday things, like being an actual phone.

What to do when your vendor gets acquired
Yes, this is a good succinct way to put it. It compiles handlebars templates to its VM, and then as the machine executes, it updates the DOM appropriately. You can think of the Glimmer VM as a VM interface to the DOM rather than the direct DOM interface, and handlebars templates as programs that compile to that VM.
If it feels and plays like Quake, it'll be fine.

There is a distinct difference in gameplay between Overwatch and other shooters like Doom and Titanfall 2; Overwatch feels like you are moving a piece around a board, setting it up for "special attacks", almost like a MOBA in first-person view. If Wuake Champions doesn't suffer from this, it'll be a great Quake game.

Also note that different character classes and "personalities" were planned from Q3A but mostly scrapped.
The traditional RDBMS have failed because are all-or-nothing.

A lot of people here (and elsewhere) think is non-sense to build a full app with the full business logic inside the "db".

WHY?????

That is a VERY NARROW viewpoint.

But when we say "let's build a full-app inside a Virtual Machine, yeah that actually is ok!"

And why is ok to build a full app on lisp?
Or in a OO language (a grah of objects)?
Or a array language (a array is relation with 1 column!)

If you think that:

print([1, 2, 3])

Id OK. then YOU MUST ACCEPT THAT:

print([Code = 1, 2, 3; Name= Miami, New York, Bogota])

Is ALSO OK.

The relational model is just move from 1-columns arrays to 2 N-Columns (In rows of columns as internal storage) plus some universal operations.

WHERE THE RDBMS FAILED EVERYONE IS:

Because them (the guys at the DB side) insist in adding: transactions, triggers, Surrogate-Keys, Inter-Relation dependencies, storage, sub-query languages, catalogs, views, etc.

So at the end, you get a full half/big semi-OS virtual machine tailored to a specific niche.

------

Was only when the artificial divide between the RDBMS and the front-end language appear (and the death by MS of Fox/Vb to only focus in .NET) that building database apps start to suck big time.

I have talk about in HN before about this, and instead consider that make even MORE sense to build the logic inside the DB, however, is necessary to re-think how it look to make it more useful. Is not a novel concept. The dBase family was almost that, and the people like me that use it was very happy and productive.

Why make more sense? Because Program = Data + Algo.

Data is not to be treated as third-class citizen. Must be a first class. The relational model make it first class (as with lisp model and array).

And what about separation of concerns and all that? That is pure architecture and is tangential to be or not inside a DB, the same is tangential inside a VM.
They were probably thinking next year, they can call the new one Titan XPP. Historically, their naming conventions for GeForce cards haven't been super consistent either.
As I alluded to in another comment, I distinctly remember seeing a web page on the BBC website explaining that this is a cost/resources issue. Apparently the capability to display an advert-free version used to be there, but it proved too costly to maintain. I've been trying to find that page, but unfortunately with no success.
Fair enough. To answer your question no, not much has changed. There's a knockoff Chipotle restaurant in both towns now which is pretty good. Pretty sure the Tick Tock is closed for good. And...that's probably it.
These pubs you mentioned are suffering under the large amount of traffic generated by HN and they were not designed for this load. Ideally hosting your own pub should be as easy as possible. My goal is to have it possible under a Heroku "Click to deploy" button or Zeit `now staltz/easy-ssb-pub` so that we can have more pubs. By the way, my pubs are public just because I chose to, but I may take that down if I want. No data would be destroyed, since you'd have all that locally and you can connect to any other pub and replicate through that.
Advising/warning other people to not start using bad quality frameworks is also a way to be productive.

A Guide to Choosing the Right VPN
> Firstly, by reducing the Collective Brain to merely the market/price-discovery

He does not.

> he ignores the possibility that price-controls and/or social-demonization could themselves be components of that brain

Again. He does not. He actually talks about this question in actual interviews that you can listen to.

> Hayek talks much about there being no one person who can understand everything, but fails to critique himself.

Again, there are literal interviews where he talks about this exact question.

And making a argument myself, his point is that you can not understand everything and that's why you can not centrally control it, not that he actually knows how everything works.

Plus, he has spent a lot of time on actually trying to figure out how this processes happens, and again, there are audio recordings of him talking about it.

> In order for some thing to be exchanged on the market, it needs to be commodified in some way.

False. Prices work for uniques as well.

> This transformation of /thing/ into /commodity/ is where the social slight-of-hand happens, necessarily discounting some aspect of it's worth. An example is having two identical mugs, but one of those mugs being /mine/ and therefore special to me. That specialness doesn't exist if the mugs are a commodity, and perhaps that specialness fulfills an informational/computational function.

That is exactly what the price mechanism is for. If the mug has special value to you then you can not sell it or sell it at a higher price. You are signaling to the 'collective brain' that this is a special mug. That's the exact point.

> In the end, the price is a result of a collective brain, but the market itself is a human construct.

Nobody argued against that.
I like you, you have interesting opinions.

1) If the HN community is so noisy then why are you here? :P

2) I deliberately used my university email address to create trust, and if someone wanted to do due diligence I use the same handle everywhere else.

3) I've been following this project for longer than 2 minutes and applied previously.
More seriously, I was brought in for an iOS app development job interview and I was asked all algorithm questions and nothing about iOS.

I also tried doing the whiteboard questions in my strongest language at the time, Objective-C, which in hindsight was a huge mistake (Objective-C is ridiculously wordy, I kept running out of space on the whiteboard). A couple of the interviewers said they weren't too familiar with Objective-C either, so I clearly wasn't getting interviewed by their iOS teams.

If I were to do it again I'd probably use a much more terse language like Python.

I assume you mean neoclassical economics with its focus on markets, efficiency, utility and profit maximisation, etc., and its assumption of full information.

First, I'd say that The Economist's stance these days incorporates Keynesian thought, and as such might be closer to the neoclassical synthesis, but I'd argue it goes beyond that.

At any rate, below are some articles just from the last week or two that are somewhat more progressive, or touch on aspects that neoclassical economics tended to ignore.

Maybe you'd like to highlight some articles that are off target by being rooted in neoclassical thought?

* "US proposed budget cuts would be bad for environment" (http://www.economist.com/news/international/21719466-and-sig...)

Some older articles:

* "A decent deal would have put Greece on the path to sustainable growth and taken the prospect of Grexit off the table. Instead, Europe has cooked up the same old recipe of austerity and implausible assumptions." (http://www.economist.com/news/leaders/21657806-deal-between-...)

* TE argues against "the war on drugs" (http://www.economist.com/news/leaders/21650112-one-war-drugs...)

AP's Playbook on Artificial Intelligence Journalism -
A big history lesson and a big WARNING for anyone who is thinking of building anything with Twitter's APIs. Once this company, long ago, encouraged developers to use their APIs to build products and utilities.

Developers heeded the call and flocked to the company's APIs. They built new clients and innovative solutions to make Twitter truly useful. Twitter grew fast with the developer's help and the developer's themselves did well. Many raised millions of dollars in VC funding to make vibrant companies around the Twitter ecosystem. Things were going well.

Then Twitter became greedy. Twitter decided to destroy the very companies that grew Twitter's user base. They changed their TOS monthly outlawing various product categories. They banned clients. They put restrictive quotas on their APIs to starve out companies so they could reap their revenue for themselves. Hundreds of products fell. Millions of developer hours were lost. The Twitter ecosystem shrank and so did Twitter's user growth.

So if you're thinking about building anything with this company then be warned. If anything you've built is remotely popular, then it is only a matter of time before they come to pillage whatever you've built.
Not true. Lowest price for 1060, 180$, lowest for 480, 185$. Granted, that's a 3gb model vs 4gb, but the prices are basically identical.

PS3 owner here.

There are three levels of backward compatibility for the PS3:
- PS2 in hardware / PS1 in software
- PS2 in software / PS1 in software
- PS1 in software

The PS2 in hardware was only select launch consoles (20 GB and 60 GB). PS2 in software were the 80 GB consoles, but that feature was patched out in an OS update some time ago. All PS3s have PS1 backwards compatibility for games from the PlayStation Store and the physical media. I was playing Chrono Cross the other day on my PS3 slim with no issues.

FDA Authorizes Ten 23andme Genetic Health Risk Reports
A teacher has the right to determine who they teach and who they evict from their teachings. But, in a school setting where the student isn't given the same liberty and freedom to choose who teaches them or to not "be under" a certain teacher, the teacher would be wise to operate in a non demanding mode. The teacher in such a situation has more [involuntary] power and control over the student. It would be prudent not to abuse that authority by demanding respect from someone who would rather not be there.
Yes, Clojure can be quite different from other languages. For instance "loop" in Clojure is a bit different than in OO/imperative languages. Hence it will take some time and effort to learn these new concepts.

The reason those comments get downvoted is because they are wrong. Anyone writing off slack as an IRC clone exhibits a very poor understanding of either system. Slack is similar to IRC in that they deliver text-based communication, but that's about it. The underlying protocols, features, and so forth are radically different.

Most anti-systemd comments are similarly poorly thought out and articulated.

The parent isn't talking about runtime-eval (where you hit the interpreter with strings over and over in a hot loop), but rather "manual JITing", the technique where you take code that would otherwise be very dynamic (looking up method names using variables, etc.), generate a string containing a function definition of one particular concrete specialization of said code, and then eval that string to get a native function handle—just as if said code had been turned into a blob URI and shoved into a <script src=""> attribute. Those functions will then get statically analyzed just like any other functions.
