Right?! I can't wait for the computer-human interaction research teams to jump on this trend and start publishing! The CHI/HCI/HCC community would flip out. My favorite example of how this sort of transparency would benefit the community: In 2009, Microsoft published an academic paper called "Mouse 2.0" (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/publication/mouse-2...), where they walked through the research prototypes for touch-sensitive peripherals. The paper was met with awe and acclaim... A mere few months before Apple took the Magic Mouse to market.
If crypto currency is ever going to replace cash and credit cards, you need to make it easy for 8 year old Timmy and his 80 year old grandma. At the moment neither of them have any concept of what crypto currency is or how to use it, but the sure can go down to the gas station and buy some candy from them with cash.
The U.S. is going through a greedy oligarch phase. The silent generation was the one that built all that infrastructure and had the proper tax incentives to make both public and private infrastructure projects happen. Massive ones.

And then the baby boomers came along. And they have just cash cowed that infrastructure, not doing a good job maintaining it, not advancing it, letting it rot, while they pocket the benefit, stuffing it into the stock, bond, and real estate markets, benefiting really no one but themselves. They are a hoarding generation. And they seem fairly OK with a re-emergence of aristocracy as a result: I've got mine, you go get your own. Everything is a product. Rich people get more. Cooperation is socialism. Etc.

So it'll be up to gen X and millenials to decide what comes next.

So, this is definitely good work, and I don't have any suggestions on how to do it better, but I'm ultimately not sure how useful I find it. I have no intuition for what the histograms for `t` should look like, and so seeing the different histograms for ծ vs `not ծ` doesn't tell me much except that they're different (which is trivially true!).

Does anyone else find this sort of visualization useful? Maybe I'm just misunderstanding this. I would love to develop more of an intuition for neuron activations in deep nets- I want to better understand how they work, as right now, the only thing that I do is feed in inputs and look at the outputs, which is wildly inadequate.

I have the same criticism when it comes to the CNN visualizations that Karpathy et. al [1] came up with. They're cool, but I don't find them that useful.

I hope I don't sound too critical. I'm really glad that people are doing this sort of work, as I think that it's incredibly important to the advancement of deep learning, and I think that this work is well-done, but I don't find it personally useful.

The only way it would be a security risk would be if it tossed the content right into a browser or similar.

It it was presented in plain text for the user to see before taking any action, there would be no more risk than any other printed URL (unless the very scanning app has issues, but then that is a very different rabbit hole).
Given the super heated discussion about Facebook Patents clause on their OSS I found this pretty awesome.
It's the action-response time. I this case the delay time for interactive activities, such as the delay between pressing a key and seeing the letter appear on the screen. Even 'fast' desktops can be intermittently rubbish at this due to background tasks saturating the CPU or I/O channels.

> Most people won't be able to understand, let alone care, about your research?

The intended audience is other researchers in your field, not the general public.

Your reputation as an academic or researcher rest on your publication record (plus your ability to land funding). If you publish highly-cited papers in prestigious journals or conference proceedings, you're considered among the best in your field. This opens the door to promotions, better job offers, etc.

Researchers at Apple have historically forgone the ability to publish. They have no reputation in the field. This significantly harms their ability to get a job elsewhere as a researcher.
I agree. The gov dropped the ball by failing to build out the infrastructure itself, such that they were kept public utilities. They obviously didn't understand the importance that these networks would eventually have.
I think Reddit is interestingly a net social positive. For all the bad things that come out of it you can often see users helping others in a pretty significant way.
Secure messaging was the same for a long time but now it's improving rapidly. I don't think managing keys will get harder and harder. Already using a Ledger Nano is pretty nice, and I imagine in a couple of years it will be very nice. But I also imagine the ecosystem for hosted keys will stay, so you can choose to be your own bank or to trust some other actor. With cryptocurrency it will be much easier and cheaper to move to a competing service, too.

In 2012, Goldman Sachs estimated it would cost 140 billion to fiber up the entire country[1].

Let's round up to 250 billion for corporate/politician bribery greed/pork and double it for today at 500 billion. That is about $2500 per household for fiber internet nationwide, built to be expanded later, quite affordable. With our wars for the last 2 decades coming in at 6 trillion we could have bought that 10+ times.

If we can't even afford to maintain roads that serve our sprawling zoning schemes, why on earth would we be able to afford any of the alternatives (rail, etc) within our sprawling zoning scheme?

You cannot "fix" symptoms like car use without fixing the underlying problems of car dependence.

Living in a car dependent built environment without the ability to use a car is worse than the status quo, is the point. That's the world we're heading for if we remove parking but continue to resist gentrification and upzoning.

> One man's Utopia is another man's Dystopia.

I like how the U.S. Founders tried to approximate a solution: a group of federated states, and each state's residents had the power to set up its own idea of what came close to their ideals. We eventually should have ended up with 50 separate, concurrently-running, dynamic experiments competing with each other for residents. Our current federalism prevents this from happening, though.
Raptor Engineering makes/may eventually make(?) the "Talos Secure Workstation" based on POWER8. They claim "schematics and libre (fully open and auditable) firmware also are included." Don't know; don't own one. A mere $5,300 gets/might get you an 8 core workstation.

IBM makes POWER CPUs and you may assume that -- unless they've disclosed something -- no one other than IBM and the NSA really know if there are any unauditable "support" processors on the die. Beyond that the Raptor site mentions that there are still some bits you don't get to know about their system: "several pages will be redacted on the public schematic due to mandatory NDAs with a few of our support silicon vendors."

Everything else is SOC/MCU stuff; nothing that approaches the capabilities of these Intel and AMD CPUs. You could hold out on older pre-ME/PSP systems until RISC-V goes through enough evolution and market success to achieve parity with then-contemporary devices, sometime around 2035 I'd guess...

That's a nice example. But putting your name on your research is not so much about stature. Publishing anonymously is more akin to giving your baby up for adoption.

Data Analysis Using Python – An Introduction
I strongly disagree that it's minimum connection speeds that matter. In a heavily-rural state like Pennsylvania, there will always be a lot of people living in places where it makes no sense to deploy fast wired broadband.[1] If you optimize the regulatory regime for bringing up that floor, you're going to compromise on the average and top end.

[1] I think in a developed society, people have the right to lots of different services, including maybe even internet connectivity. I strongly disagree they have the right to get it wherever they want to live. The government shouldn't be in the business of creating incentives to live in places that are expensive to build infrastructure to, at the cost of everyone else.
No different than anything involving humans. I think people hate Reddit or twitter because raw humanity is mostly good but sometimes awful.

I doubt Microsoft have much to gain making a competing container orchestration platform. On the other hand, having Azure be a solid place to host Kubernetes is probably a huge financial win for them.
I'm not sure.

I don't work in aviation, but you can produce much better documentation by following at least the spirit of this vs. the specific grammars and vocabulary.

Engineers and IT people are often not very strong in writing ability, and there are many non-native speakers in technology. I've seen situations where "Cute" documentation with TV references (infrastructure placement was captured by types of disney vs. looney tunes characters) and lots of implied context. Having a style guide that forces simplicity can be a high value.
> So you essentially work for the rest of your life?

Not quite. I still pay National Insurance contributions, and in fact am already entitled to a full UK state pension (at age 66). I also pay into a private pension plan and have done so for years. I also built up my tax free savings in cash and stocks and shares (low cost index tracker). I can access the private pension and private savings whenever I want.

So the plan is I will continue to do this as long as it makes sense to do so.

My partner and I are actually considering complete early retirement (I'm 55 now) to Philippines next year - but that's another story.
I don't think of Reddit as a single entity, but as a platform for communities(subreddits). The differences between subreddit communities are vast, ranging from 100% toxic to 100% positive.
Yep this is more than possible. It's done in marketing. If you have a short code to "text for coupons" There's a high chance that they're doing a ping against your number.
"Elevator technicians earn an average of $77,000 a year"
I think with politics taking such a hard line position on reducing neutrality that we really have to just bypass the politics of it all together. If we look at history, it would suggest that this is the major way to avoid a lot of these issues (don't get me wrong, politics is definitely a catalyst). This has been true for GW, medicine, access to materials (water, food), etc. Because frankly throughout history it is common to have a

> government that is utterly unresponsive to its people.

But is there a way that we can make it near impossible to not have net neutrality? As far as I'm aware, there is no solution that doesn't allow for someone to obtain control. Fixing the human factor is difficult, but is there a clear way to bypass it?

While yes it's prone to various known/unknown attack vectors, and each crypto has a different surface area (like ethereum's smart contracts) The public/private key being one of them is unlikely. Computationally, cracking that takes a monumental amount of computing power that doesn't exist yet.
On the State of the Art of Evaluation in Neural Language Models
Just getting back into Go (was Clojure), missing generics were annoying indeed. Though doing things with strings in source isn't fundamentally different from type erasure in the JVM (can wiki the term). Ie. Generics in Java are strings in the source code that don't make it through compilation either, Java just has explicit syntax for it and IIRC C++ templates generate a collection class for each type.
Instead, if you use the great firewall technique of just making the connection slow... and telling the customer that it's slow because their ISP doesn't support NN and how to fix it... then most users will blame their ISP for slowness, as usual.
Database mistakes: Lessons learned the hard way
The blockchain is an accounting ledger that no one has global write-access to, so you don't have to worry about your bank/broker being hacked, going out of business, or freezing your accounts.

It solves the problem of financial intermediation. The whole financial world has been built on financial intermediaries (banks and stock exchanges) to verify that you actually own things. Now you can point to a public record (the blockchain) for that, and no one can take it away from you (without your private key).
If I recall the gist of the Rogaway article, from memory, (again, it's an important enough article that it really does merit serious attention):

he argues 1) cryptographers (and computer scientists in general) should be more political (good!), 2) cryptography needs a new framing (good!), 3) privacy and exception from government search is an unalloyed right (not so good), 4) better crypto will solve privacy issues (not so good).

In sum, the article does a lot of good work, and more than anything, it contains some important and refreshing rethinking of the field of crypto. This is all very important. Nonetheless, it ends up taking for granted a number of political positions that should, I think, also be contested (Rogaway takes the first step!). More crypto does not equal a better world.
Keep in mind that reference counting, which Rust supports in its standard library, is a also form of garbage collection. It may not be part of the core language, but then again neither are RAII in C++, monads in Haskell, and getters/setters in Java.
I also hate seeing content creators being paid for their work!
I used to think so. I enjoyed Reddit a lot, despite people complaining about it. Then /r/the_donald happened.

Now I tread carefully because you never know what kind of propaganda is being spread around.

People say stick to the subreddit. But I think that's silly. If the core of Reddit is rotten, then the subreddit themselves will be affected. It has happened to places I visit like /r/environment. There is a constant barrage of non-environmentally friendly comments. Not enough to change the overall makeup of the subreddit, but enough to make you wonder who is on the other side of the screen voting or down voting on stories.

Then there are places like /r/technology, which is almost intolerable to me at times.

People say I am paranoid, but like with anything, if you know a place well and visit it for years, you can sense when things change.

And yes my opinion is subjective, but this is a subjective topic.
There is a standard called BIP39 for generating deterministic keys. If your wallet follows that, you can be compatible with any other wallet.
There is some insane things the body can do with stress depending on how you use it. Long story short: I had always been overweight as a child and teenager. Struggled to lose weight. If I did, it was a roller coaster ride. I'd lose 5 or 10 pounds and looking at a donut or something seemed to put it right back.

Anyways, my girlfriend and I had broken up at the time, and I was upset about it, but used the opportunity to get away from all influences of food from others. I was living alone and never went out, and within 3 months of pretty much resorting to a chicken breast a day with some salad as well as working out (No, I never went to the gym), I was able to lose about 30 pounds.

By working out, I mean I forced myself to ride my bike to work everyday at 2.5 - 3 miles each way.

Most people would probably say: You're not eating enough, you need to eat more! That advice is what probably got me fat in the first place. Listening to what your body wants and eating when you are hungry -- eating so that you can function, not living to eat, is something that certainly changed in my life and perspective. The body lets you know exactly what it needs. It's an evolutionary tool that has been designed to burn fat and it will do its job and do it more efficiently when you give it the proper nutrition to do so.

I think between the stress of not having that person who had been my best friend for so long, the eating, and the exercising, I was able to lose some weight.

On the other hand, I have also seen people break up with boyfriends or girlfriends and gain 30 pounds. It is all in how you choose to manage the energy of that stress.
> I'm thinking of various sociopathic tendencies...

This is a difficult, multi-faceted challenge to address. This behavior is rampant in the world, and IMHO it is only getting worse at the moment. Up until relatively recently, the US and some developed nations tended to express less of this than the rest of the world, so I suspect overall relative wealth, maybe even lower inequality, spread across a tremendous sector of the population can ameliorate the tendency. Concrete examples are the product return policies that in the past I observe tended to be fairly generous and could only be commonly found in the US and some developed nations' marketplaces. These policies are tightening up and in some cases dropped altogether. There is a cultural element at play as well, complicating the picture.

So question: Google, Facebook, Netflix, et al all say that Net Neutrality is extremely important to their business. Why are they not drowning legislators in lobbying and "campaign contributions" to make sure it stays? I mean, they have to be able to outspend the cable companies.
