Not very, but getting them to outright do so would be an excellent step forward for privacy.
I think it's possible with exotic cooling solutions like custom water cooling. The costs are often ludicrous and not something you'd put into a cloud server but for a home workstation a good water cooling setup can get you better than stock performance such that you could run Small FFTs for hours or days and be fine. That sounds like overkill but it's peace of mind for me and I need that or I'll just keep the thing stock which I've been doing lately. My current 1620v2 xeon based workstation with a lot of enterprise Sas SSDs and tons of ram is at stock because the xeon line is locked down and it's plenty fast.
This. Never actually been in the death zone - my highest has been just under 7km, but it was hard enough carrying my own stuff up and down.
What do you mean with credible?
The source is all here:
https://github.com/postmarketOS/

But from reading through the comments, no one has analyzed it yet, if you mean that. It has less than 2000 lines of code, and it is Python, so it shouldn't be hard to read through.

Oh and there is room for improvement. Automatic Travis CI builds and what not. Alpine Linux already does this for every package, so with some effort postmarketOS could also do that.
I feel close to their IT staff having to deal with this on a Saturday afternoon.

Partially OT: anyone wanting to share any on-call horror stories? :)
helb was saying Firefox does not send "DOM hashes", the story you link to is about Chrome.
Honestly I think you are missing the point. The gift DeepMind made with the published self-play matches is not really aimed at the machine learning but rather to the Go community. And over at /r/baduk they are appreciating it, as it will allow them to gain further insights into the gameplay. So this is definitely _not_ 'nothing'.
> Because people reflexively rationalize and justify immoral behaviors and atrocities with that's just how the market works.

Maybe this happens, but it hasn't happened in this thread and it frequently doesn't happen in other threads before someone makes a big fuss about the market. And no, there's nothing immoral about compensating someone fairly to solve a dangerous problem; yes the opportunity will always be more appealing to the poor in a capitalist society, but there are no viable alternatives so I don't understand all of the complaining.

> Your argument is basically equivalent to...

No it's not; you simply misunderstood. My argument is that capitalism doesn't solve all problems, but no one has better ideas. Even the so-called socialist eutopias of northern Europe have a market-based economy. Again, I don't understand complaining about a problem with no candidate solutions.
Similar to inventions and discoveries: is it the "great man/woman" theory, or just an idea whose time has come in the historical process?

Some work is simultaneous, like the discovery of pluto. Several ideas in maths/science are named after independent developers.
OTOH, sometimes classified ideas still haven't been independently invented when declassified many years later.

So, I guess it's the safe, boring answer: some is, some isn't.

Religions are categorically different than economic systems, and capitalism is as old as the idea of private property (prehistoric), not simply 200 years old.
I was in a start-up (as an expensive hire) some years ago where each day was horrible, and I thought I was suffering terrible 'flu. The day the board flew in to fire me* and I stepped out into the sunshine the 'flu lifted instantly. Stress not 'flu in other words, which is I suspect is where you are. The crying was probably good, and supports my suggestion!

And when you're that deep in stress it's even more difficult than usual to see a way out, to be rational, to separate the short-term from the long-term.

I wasn't even a founder, and I have been founder of a handful of start-ups now, all with their bad moments.

Can you ease off a bit, get someone else to help out, and get through acquisition? That is, a less binary view than you suggest. I don't think the buyer is likely to want either a dead company or a walking-dead company with a burnt-out founder.

Even the big boys get overwhelmed and stressed out from time to time and have to take a break:

And all these years later he's steered Lloyds back into profit and the UK government just disposed of its final shares, also at a nominal profit.

There is light at the end of the tunnel. It is probably not an oncoming train.

But you need to give yourself a chance to get some perspective.

I don't understand how a financial company can charge an arbitrary amount (of their choosing) if the fund is doing well. How can anyone trust them to not take an absurd amount if the advisor is crooked? I guess if every financial business does it you have no choice as a customer.
We need to address them in all contexts that significantly affect emissions, including driverless cars.
Most of the alternatives at the time had fewer and more specialised registers - the architecture was childs-play to write compiler targets or compared to contemporary alternatives. My first compiler was for M68k, and it forever made me hate dealing with x86.

I'm not convinced it aged poorly. It failed because Motorola didn't have the resources to compete at keep up with Intel, and of course that could be down to the architecture making it harder.

But developments like [1] imply that this was more a problem with Motorola/Freescale's abilities to produce a sufficiently advanced design at the time - they're starting to beat Coldfire and PPC systems that are clocked far faster with the M68k instruction set on various benchmarks (though they are also adding instructions). With the caveat that this of course also tests things like memory bus speeds etc. What's clear, in any case is that the we never got to see what kind of performance it is possible to squeeze out of the M68k architecture.

What ruined Yik Yak for me was making the geographical areas larger so my University's 'herd' included surrounding cities too. Too much noise. This compounded with the removal of anonymity led to me deleting the application.

Britain's master forger
From the service configuration file posted on that reddit thread, it is a WCF based service and it seems to have metadata access enabled (the <endpoint address="mex"...> part). One could try to use Visual Studio to "add service reference" and it should discover its methods and let you call them in code.
A good read, though funnily enough the live departures board doesn't seem to work for the closest station to me. Nor does it seem to work for lines that have trains going in both directions.

Apple is affected. It depends on how you use your device, you can easily kill you iphone battery (as well as any other phone) in two years from normal use. It's one of the main complaints I hear from iphone folks.

That is why "lasts whole day" isn't good enough for a new phone. In a year it will not last a whole day. And it will seriously hurt the longevity of it, but noone cares.
A take a little offense with the "clickbaity" accusation thrown willy nilly.

The title translates to something like "Shakespeare's Genius lies in exploiting non-sensical language and sentiment for dramatic effect".

It is a kind of pun, using the same kind of structure as the professor's point out Shakespeare was prone to use to drive their point.

Is it clickbait? That might have played a factor. But decades before the internet was even a thing, when you couldn't see the title of a piece unless you have already bought the magazine/newspaper, journalists still likes to use such puns and clever wording in their stories.

Not just on cover stories ("Headless body in a topless bar") but in stories and regular columns buried deep deep inside the magazine/newspaper. The same also holds true for many people writing in their blogs. They like a good pun / clever title.

So maybe we should leave the knee-jerk accusation of "clickbait" where it really belongs? "This guy lost 100lbs with a small trick. Doctors hate him!", "You wont believe what Kim said to Kanye!", etc.
When I submitted this topic, I hesitated about whether should I add "Elixir" to the title. I know this may confuse some people because "Elixir" is also a programming language. However, I think project's name may also help people to distinguish it from other projects, so I add it. It seems that this title indeed causes it to be mistaken for something else and I'm sorry for that.
I am 26 and I lived through the 90s and 2000s so I know the whole personal phone revolution. FYI. You should say those in their teenage years.

I could see myself losing the passion for software engineering and design if an AI can do it better. That would have to be a general AI, and hopefully another couple of decades away.

I wonder if I could enjoy movies or books written by an AI. Scary to think about the psychological manipulation it would be capable of, especially if it lives inside a Google or Facebook datacenter.
I guess that depends on whether you think a choice between poverty and dangerous work is worse or better than poverty without a choice. Personally, I'm not a fan of slavery or poverty, so I tend to prefer market-based solutions to problems.

>Whenever I try to understand a program, I do draw structures of it. But it is NEVER the structure of the source code as is, but some parts the main flow with the unimportant bits left out

While some tools might be more or less accommodating, there's nothing about visual representation per se that can't do that (including filtering the non-important parts, producing something akin to UML's interaction diagrams, etc).
The 10 AlphaGo vs. AlphaGo games are a nice gift!

I have always liked playing through great games, both Chess (using the book The Golden Dozen) and Go (modern games and the ancient Shogun Castle games).

I have some history with computer Go. In the late 1970s I wrote a Go playing program in UCSD Pascal that I sold for the Apple II, and also for a lot more money I sold the source code to a few people who wanted to experiment with it. DeepMind's AlphaGo is a great intellectual and technological triumph and I agree that it is an example of future AIs teaching us and working with us.

A little off topic, but Peter Norvig gave a nice talk a few weeks ago at the NYC Lisp Users Group where he talked about the future of collaboration with AIs and also that the ability to work effectively with AIs, adding human insights, will be an important future job skill.
I somewhat agree with him. I would, however, jump right into making something you would find interesting as soon as you have a basic understanding of what makes up a packet, the TCP/UDP protocols, and how sockets work, such as an IRC chat clone, a simple networked game, a reusable self auto-updating library, and so on. I would recommend creating something that you'll actually use or remain interested in to stay motivated.

I find I do most of my learning while trying to research my way around a stumbling blocks, but of course it always helps to read/research things beforehand as well.

The case is made of polycarbonate. Cardboard would be interesting from an environmental perspective, but likely wouldn't be able to withstand the harsh conditions prescribed by EN 61131-2 (low/high temperatures, damp air, vibrations/shock etc). We add a safety margin to those conditions, e.g. 61131-2 requires safe operation at 55 degrees Celsius, we test at 60 degrees. The products are used e.g. in automotive applications where these harsh conditions are not just theoretical.

Yes, it's not actually a law, but a (perhaps cynical) heuristic.

Possible interpretations:
* People do not want to sound too optimistic but they hope to see some improvements before they die;
* People hope they are dead before someone proves them wrong;
* People deal with temporal magnitudes in the order of the human lifespan and close multiples.

The last one, and then the first, are my guesses.
Is it possible to make an open source peer to peer version? Seems like something along the lines of ipfs or dat would be a good substrate.

Good luck.
There are many reasons why I would recommend the zeffirelli version over this one.
If that's true then it's probably their operations system, i.e. flight management, digital flight bag, etc. Without those systems you can't file flight plans easily, fuel the planes with the optimal amount for the weather conditions, etc.
Yeah SIRI has been lame compared to Google's hey Google for a long time.
There are a lot of unexamined assumptions here. Why would we assume that a prehistoric society had any particular system of economic interactions? It's not as if they wrote something we can read. In those cases in which tombs or whatever were left behind that we can examine, it typically seems that relatively rare "kings" were buried with all of the gold and other shiny rocks, and sometimes with some servants or wives for the afterlife who seem to have been ritualisticly killed for that purpose. Was that "capitalism"? Maybe!

That depends on what your purpose is for using an ad blocker in the first place.

If you just don't want to see ads, by all means overlay them and your ad blocker will probably go undetected.

But a lot of people run ad blockers to save bandwidth or avoid being tracked or to avoid the malware that's been known to be distributed through even the most reputable ad networks. Overlays don't solve those problems.
What an amazing feature. Facebook essentially does this for all inbound links.
what I meant (which was not clear) is that, for what I understand, if you compare the greatness of the tool which is AlphaGo and the "gift" of Google, then I'm inclined to thing that Google actually gives almost nothing. Now I understand that they don't have to (a great Go players doesn't have to teach for sure) but I can not thing their gift is meaningful. Basically, if I have 1000$, I'll share 1$. But if I have 1000000$, then...

I don't like Android. I prefer iOS because there is a single vendor for managing the sales and the development of both the hardware snd the software. This pro does come at a premium cost but I don't want my phone to stay on Android 2.X because AT&T does not want to release upgrade, then the only option is only going to be flashing and installing a new version on my own. That wipes my data and I probably will break my warranty worh ATT by flashing (I never checked).

iOS has bugs and performance issues too. But overall it is quite solid. The app store experience as a consumer is nice too.

If this project is aimed to bring freedom software to users on mobile with thr goal of running on phones for 10-years, great. But for mass adoption I am going to be bold: it won't happen. Firefox OS failed because (1) device spec is poor (Mozilla wanted to market it in countries where smartphone was not common), (2) not enough apps, (3) the influence and trending look of Android and iPhone.
This raises a question for me : is there currently some public infrastructure that can rival with AlphaGo ?
In the US it's not as feasible because of driving distances between cities, but in the EU where cities are closer and the train system is healthy I can see EVs gobbling up market share fast.

In the US you would need random charging stations lining the highways like we have gas stations. I expect people are much less likely to want to stop for 30 min at a random gas station than in a city center to recharge.
In theory, such an attack is possible, in practice -- very unlikely at this point given the number of miners out there.

Public means API? AlphaGo is very specialized in solving Go game. Google, Amazon and IBM have services for various services like image recongition and speech recongition. Startups like Clarifi also exists in that space.

The closest to a generalized AI service would probably be Watson from IBM (but I don't have experiment with it sadly so I am not sure about the usage experience).

Yeah it's not even up for debate. Google is way ahead of Apple in Ai and just about nearly another we could name.
Err, too expensive for Google? And pardon my only partially feigned ignorance, but if you're paying them based off the position and not gender, why do you need additional wage data?
It seems that with the increasing attention given to 'places' and less emphasis on the actual roads we are looking at Google getting Maps ready for the roll-out of self driving cars where the focus is on the destination rather than the journey.

Oh yeah? They're offering that at charging stations? Where is that?

There is an enormous difference between demonstrated and available. Showing something could work doesn't address bad batteries or standardization.

Funny with the context of how much, for example, Levandowski was compensated.

It also makes you wonder about their statements that they have no gender pay gap. If you can't get the data together, how do you "know"?
Your mileage may vary. Replacing the battery in an HTC One M8 is like performing eye surgery via the rectum.

I cannot provide figures, but for me, when debugging within code that is not my own, I find that even something as simple as a call tree is often a big help (it is complementary to a stack trace, as you often want to figure out what was going on before the failure.)

My guess is that more sophisticated and powerful tools for understanding software will do more to improve its development than yet another language.
