As far as I know, Google translate is broken when it comes to the word "OK", because the word is used in every website to mean "Press here if you want to continue." For example, translating OK to Korean gives me 승인, which means "approval".
So destroying America's manufacturing potential in everything from textiles, to electronics and heavy industries was all part of a scorched-earth secretive plan to fight Communism in China?
I wish the diagrams were bigger, they are hard to read and a bit blurry.

One of the interesting points, that is often overlooked in ML is model deployment. They mention tensorflow, which has a model export feature that you can use as long as your client can run the tensorflow runtime. But they don't seem to be using that b/c they said they just exported the weights and are using it go which would seem to imply you did some type of agnostic export of raw weight values. The nice part of the TF export feature is that it can be used to recreate your architecture on the client. Bu they did mention Keras too which allows you to export your architecture in a more agnostic way as it can work on many platform such as Apples new CoreML which can run Keras models.

> Over the long-term, the way Americans are fighting Communism is by introducing capital to modernize China

Fighting communism? That's rich. Do you think the ability for corporations to cut costs in half while keeping sales constant might have just a little to do with it?

> if China were to decide on rapidly modernizing like Japan did pre-WW2.

Holy cow....without American corporations going over and teaching them how to do it, there's no way China could have modernized as quickly as they have. Everyone now is in the position of having to hope China will be a benevolent leader of the world, because it's almost inevitable at this point that they will surpass the US by a very wide margin.

> Trump's a warning shot across the bow of foreign powers and the establishment that the American public aren't going to put up with the lack of a social contract and continuous exploitation forever. He's not going to get a lot done, but that's part of the point; he's showing them that there are repercussions to economic warfare and subjugation.

Trump's movement is being put down as efficiently as the Occupy Wall Street and Bernie Sanders movements were put down, and the exploitation of Americans with their full compliance will continue. He's not going to accomplish anything.
Maybe. But that was a common thing to say about search engines before the mid to late 00s, about Facebook related to social networks just a few years ago..and to this day, and about messaging perhaps to this day as well while that has pretty much stabilized too.

I'm not saying I'd bet money on Github being a front runner in say 5 years, but it isn't that unlikely for them to still be the site in 5 or 10 years.
I hope I wasn't the only one who thought for a moment that this was talking about a startup incubator. Even though that wouldn't have made a whole lot of sense.

Banks can always ask you to go into a branch for more important things like that. They do that in the UK. If you're not in the country, you can write a letter on paper and have the local police or lawyer confirm your identity. I've done that before. It's a nightmare but it eventually works.

Sourceforge fell from grace due to ads. Google Code just went the way of many of Google's side projects. (Also, I don't recall it being that heavily used. Just my memory?)

I'll confess that I feel that github will eventually wane. But, I can't say why I think that right off. When they run out of money? Start failing at the hosting portion of what they do in favor of other things?

> Why should we expect the effect of Random to be large enough to create easily identifiable personalities, or more accurately, behavior patterns?

Well, my main reason for thinking it is that complex systems tend to be chaotic unless there's some reason for them not to be. Two pendulums attached to each other produce a chaotic system. A living being is a lot more complex. When things aren't chaotic, I'm looking for an explanation.

I suspect that a little chaos is probably beneficial to the species/gene, so to the extent that there is a reason to expect anything, chaos seems likely (obviously only when the chaos isn't actively maladaptive).

My other source for the idea is a little introspection and observation. I can see the effects of small things in my own live and those of others.

XML has several advantages over JSON: it's much better at self-documentation and the schema validation tools are more powerful. Namespaces compose elegantly. XML has a bad reputation due to enterprise-y abuse of the technology, but that does't mean it's a fundamentally bad idea.
That physical interaction is important. It means there's a human being in your country committing a crime on video. That same person could just pick up a product off the shelf and walk out with it too. Either way, they're putting themselves at risk of arrest.

When it's online, there's almost no risk because they're probably in Russia and leave no physical evidence.
Yeah, there was tons of interesting stuff happening in R&D in the 90s. The problem was that Microsoft held a complete strangehold on distribution, which meant that for the average consumer (i.e. teenage me, not in Silicon Valley, and everyone I knew), it might as well not exist. I remember, when I first started to read academic papers and surf programming sites in college around 2003, thinking "Holy shit, there's all this cool stuff that was invented over a decade ago, and I can't use any of it unless I switch to UNIX."

What happened in the mid-2000s was that open-source software (and later Apple) finally broke Microsoft's hold on the route to the consumer, and suddenly small teams of people could deliver software that billions of people could use. There's a similar situation in R&D now; I remember that when I left Google 3 years ago, there was a whole lot of really cool stuff being developed that has yet to see the light of day. No corporation can hold innovation back forever though, because of Joy's Law: "No matter who you are, the majority of smart people do not work for you."
> Compared to speculation as to what the economy would have been without NAFTA.

Sure, but it's just that: speculation. The reality is that the economy and jobs market have both grown, with no aid or detriment from NAFTA.

> Which the US didn't have before? If anything, the US is far less dominant now.

In terms of our relationships with Mexico and Canada? We're 50% of Mexico's imports [1], and 54% of Canada's [2].

I can't really dispute the feeling that we're less dominant. All I can say is that agreements like NAFTA and TPP are designed and refined with US economic interests in mind. When we leave the negotiating table, we lose our primary chance at advantageous trade agreements.

> Asia is eating the US's lunch without China even being competitive at the top of the value chain, which isn't too far away. When they achieve that, things will start to deteriorate even more rapidly.

If this is true, then trade agreements are especially vital. Developing economies need investment, and they're going to get it one way or another.

FWIW, I think the story hit the front page simply because it was a positive story about Rust and a lot of people in this community reflexively upvote that sort of thing. I took your comment as well deserved criticism against the community.
Keras has a save_model() [including both weights and architecture] and a load_model() function.

The model has to be converted to a format for CoreML, which does not work with the Keras 2 API yet: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/coremltools
I agree and am in a similar demo. I think I just as often use "kk" but I'm not able to place exactly where I picked this up from or what it's origins are. UrbanDictionary claims it's internet slang for "okay, cool" == "k, kool" == "kk" which seems believable. It actually hadn't struck me until writing this comment that "kk" was internet specific slang, and thinking about it it's something I don't really see from most people.
EBOLA DEATH TOLL RISES IN DemoCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO
Great slideshow. Word embeddings are already indispensable in NLP, but I'm wondering if it is right to assign just a unique vector per word. Instead, each word should have a vector based on context, for disambiguation and nuance.

I see word meaning as an action similar to object recognition in vision - we have to infer meaning because the actual word itself is a family of meanings. Most of the time it's used one word - one embedding, even in word2vec which is the standard method used in papers.

Of course word sense disambiguation is an old topic of research and there are many methods. The translation task is probably the ultimate word-disambiguation application - it shows how much work is still to do after word embedding, in order to understand the meaning of words. If words had unique meanings, we could have done translation with simple dictionary substitutions.
If Wireshark is any example, definitely not. I've not met anyone that likes the Qt version (in VoIP, it's an indispensable tool used all the time) - it seems like it lost a ton of polish.
Not at all used in Brazil from what I can tell. I told a fruit vendor after tasting his wares "it's ok" and he though I said "shocking" which apparently has a portuguese cognate.

Thankfully the thumbs up gesture is pretty pervasive there.
Do you know why manufacturing left America? It has nothing to do with costs. It has everything to do with regulations and attitudes.

If you want a manufacturing industry, workers WILL get killed on site. Workers WILL get cancer from dangerous chemicals. There's no free lunch. Everyone knows this, but somehow we care more about a high school dropout getting exposed to fumes in a factory than one that ODs on heroin because he has zero job prospects.

Either blue collar workers die at 65-70 after a lifetime of work related exposure, or they die at 30 due to drug overdose. Those are your 2 and only 2 choices.
ID isn't just for security, it's so the police can track you. So they'll be putting pressure on phone companies to do it thoroughly. They take a copy of my passport when I get a SIM card. Probably not going to bribe them into leave missing documentation on your file. They could easily be caught by their boss at any time in the future.
5 or 6 years ago, my phone number got ported by someone else without my knowing. My phone suddenly didn't work anymore. I called into AT&T right the way to ask what's going on and they said someone has "took over billing" from my account and AT&T transferred the number over. WTF? I was adamant to get the number back since that's the number I give it out to people. They won't bungle saying it's out of their hand. Finally they said they could place the number into the free pool for re-allocation which would freeze it for 3 months before it could be used again. I was concerned it could be used as a vector against my bank accounts. It was a nightmare.
Ask HN: Would you ever work for a company that live streams 100% of your work?
I imagined an overly idealistic work setting where everyone has to be live streaming their work screen (either to the public or privately within the company). This would be like an extension of open source. This has the advantage that one can figure out what another person was thinking while developing and also get quick feedback on the development process. Ideally, someone watching would have answers to things you are stuck on, so you spend time less time looking for answers.

Of course, this is incredibly high pressure. Not many can work long hours under the pressure that others are watching. To compensate that issue, let us assume that you get paid per time spent streaming at a very high payout (the appropriate amount is up to your discretion). So instead of working long hours, you work in short bursts.

What's your opinion on such a work environment?
1) Colorless green ideas sleep furiously.

2) Me gizmo.

One of the above sentences is valid English, the other one is meaningful. That is the syntax/semantics distinction.

What are some appropriate real production use-cases for this? Particularly since you can't trust the user to tell you the 'real' state of a resource, the REST model is to send discrete state changes to resources and having an explicit endpoint to validate that the change is allowed (and logical).

JSON has problems, but that's why we have TOML:

[gamma_size]
type = "event"
args = [
{ name = "size", type = "uint" }
]

XML isn't what I would choose here because there's no need for text markup. TOML is both simpler and friendlier than XML in this case.

I do agree that it doesn't matter much.
ACH is a service of the Federal Reserve, actually.

It also provides wire transfers, which are a little more secure because they're push only, but also less secure because they're instantaneous and irreversible. All banks charge at least ~$15 per transaction and they're really only used for high value, time sensitive deals.

Great. Now that we've succeeded in compiling a list of personal sad stories to one up one another, why not not discuss how we could encourage the banks / phone companies to make this situation impossible.

1) Ban SMS as a second factor for high risk targets like banks.

2) Telecom companies should require social security number or uniquely identifying information to provide account access.

3) ???
You can't use freebsd-update if you have to recompile your kernel, which in turn makes it difficult to manage large fleets of servers without running your own freebsd-update server.

There is more information there buts it's not useful information until a trusted technical lead goes through all of those projects, and then questions the interviewee about them. And this takes loads of time, and is incredibly hard to standardize.
If you're writing a non-beginner git tutorial and you feel the need to include advice to "back up your repository" then you haven't done your job. It's incredibly hard to lose data with git - no matter what changes you make, the old commits are still around, because they're immutable. If you lose track of them, there's always "git reflog".

I don't want to pounce on you just because you prefer Mercurial to git, so this isn't really directed at you, but in general this line of argument is always a bit frustrating to me. I've never lost data with git, but I've lost data with Mercurial several times because of the terrible UI of "hg resolve", which throws away your changes without warning unless you remember to type "hg resolve -m". None of git's questionable UI decisions (and there are many) has caused me remotely as much trouble as "hg resolve".
As an example: Joel Myers of Accuweather and his brother donated $11,000 to Rick Santorum (a senator) shortly before he introduced the National Weather Service Duties Act of 2005, whose "effect would be to eliminate public dissemination of National Weather Service data and forecasts except in case of severe weather alerts. [...] The bill had very few supporters outside the commercial weather industry"
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Weather_Service_Dutie...).
They setup the factory in US because of the heavy taxes back in China. The chairman mentioned in the article gave a detailed talk touching this subject at the end of 2016 and he claimed that it is cheaper to operate in US once taxes are all factored in.
What separates the young from the old? Knowledge, wisdom, of how the sausage is made. I suggest that you look around for some legit hackers in their late 60s and older, and get to know them.

Older OLD hackers I know are super optimistic, like to make things, and are always learning.

Optimism from this point on is your challenge. I challenge you to be optimistic and do something with your experience, even if it's a hobby on the weekends and evenings.
That's too bad for Mercurial. Backing up a repo is just good practice—if you care enough to do version tracking, you should care that you have a backup. I have backups of all of my repos, but I have never once gotten Git into an unusable state.
Wow this is so useful for um security
I reckon the deeper purpose behind AMP is to fight ad blockers. Another google source in a thread from a few months back mentioned that the AMP team was within Google's advertising division.

The goal is to get all the content onto google servers so they can serve ads from the same origin that cannot be blocked.

Amp in combination with chrome's built in "ad blocker" is part of a broader Google strategy to protect their advertising model.
This is somewhat off-topic, but I'm curious since every person who has had this sentiment that I've known was unable to provide specific parts which were lacking. Do you perhaps have a short list of top things which are missing their polish with the Qt version of Wireshark?

I'm just a light user of the tool and am genuinely curious about what things it may have lost in the transition.
I've seen scion before but IMO "clean slate" protocols are DOA when it comes to displacing BGP. Just look at the mailing list. A protocol with an integration model of forming an overlay has no integration model. ETHZ and Co have been marketing that at all kinds of academic conferences and it's seen approximately 0 uptake outside of organizations that volunteer to run it as an experiment.

Sorry about the rant, but I get the impression that the authors of replacement protocols like these are more interested in becoming academically famous for being the inventor of the Internet (i.e. The next Vincent Cerf) rather than proposing solutions to existing systems.

I would be interested in new protocols for super high latency networks (i.e. The solar system model).

The RPKI work and path end validation work is interesting and I haven't seen those papers before (been disconnected from publications recently). Thanks for the links.
oh, then they should visit the mainland and start queuing for a licence plate in Shanghai - 18 months waiting time on average, $15k cost. crazy? They can also renounce their ROC citizenship and start queuing for an apartment in Beijing or Shanghai, 60 months to become eligible and $1m to get a 2bedroom one next to a noisy main road in an area traditionally considered as poor neighbourhood.

You misunderstood. This is not about a current absence of the CEO, this is about the board debating to potentially force the CEO to take leave of absence.
I actually have the exact opposite experience. I was on klonopin a long time, and it does get addictive. My doctor thought it was the best way for me to function with anxiety. After a couple years, I got a new doctor, who was far more cautious with medication. I got off it, which was incredibly hard. In fact I don't think I could have done it if the resulting agoraphobia hadn't prevented me from leaving the apartment to try to get more.

It took a very long time in what was the psychological equivalent of someone going through physical therapy to learn how to walk again, but I was able to identify and work through the underlying causes of my anxiety. I'm doing better now without the medication.

To be clear, I am NOT saying medication is bad or unnecessary. Some people do need these medications long term. But benzos really need to be prescribed with the same responsibility as opioids, because the risk of addiction and withdrawl is very real.
