It's very worth nothing that there is near feature-parity with Python's Keras API, with a few perks. (I wasn't aware that there was real-time training plotting!)

However, R still has a weakness with nontablular data like text/image data (as noted in the very-verbose examples), which is unfortunately the best type of data to use with deep learning.
The "flipping back and forth" that he seems so impressed with, combined with the arcane key bindings (I know they're Emacs-inspired, but that's little help when the navigation model doesn't actually work like Emacs windows/buffers), is why I dropped TUI pretty quickly. Besides, I have 3 1080p monitors; a UI designed for a VT220 is not the best use of that setup.

It also doesn't help that I've never gotten gdbserver to actually work reliably on my embedded Linux targets (which, to be fair, are not Cortex-A/Apple/Qualcomm chips, so probably being tested by ~nobody). I'd understand if some operations aren't supported due to missing debug hardware or emulation magic, but stuff tends to just start mysteriously breaking (e.g. not stopping on breakpoints, hanging when trying to print memory, crashing on resume/step, etc.).
My first exposure to OOP was in C using structures to hold function pointers as a pattern. You can do OO in C without C being OO. There is a huge semantic difference between doing OO and a language at supports OO, the article is referring to the former rather than the latter.

"ganking 0ms reaction times would be fun"

wonder, against this type of AI, if it's even possible to land something like meat hook or sacred arrow?

on the note of good decision making, maybe even a failed hook could be enough to exploit the bot into death. for instance, hero X chases bot back toward tower. hook comes in predicting the bots path. bot would have to either walk into the hook or walk back into the hero chasing it.

Nope. Just illustrated how hypocricy works, where child labor is OK here in the US but evil elsewhere. Without knowing the circumstance, or the effect on children, its easy to pontificate from an armchair.
No, low end security cameras send separate JPEG images (sometimes as a MJPEG stream), not GIF frames. GIF frames would be terrible for the cameras because of the limited colour palette.
For workstation use my primary complaint is the anti virus kicking in on file creation / IO. Would ideally like a locked down windows where having an anti virus was not a requirement. Even the windows subsystem for linux is not immune from the antivirus, checking out large git repositories is painfully slow since the antivirus is getting pounded the whole time.
This was posted several times yesterday: https://hn.algolia.com/?query=Sundar%20Pichai%20Should%20Res...
But, reading the article, we learn that when children are fired from one job, they go work in a worse one for less pay. Its hard to defend disruption, especially of children, especially when they then starve or work harder.
"His whole premise is that he doesn't think there should be major change at Google as he seems to like it like it is."

I had the opposite impression when I read it: there should be major change at Google (away from "echo chambers") and he absolutely does not like it the way it is.
Why are all these studies always done so poorly?

One way to add another level to test the sweetness mismatch theory would be to try multiple sweeteners. She only tries sucralose. If others fail, her theory is probably wrong.

The article also says there was a higher metabolic response defined as using more calories to process the drinks at the 50-50 level. How does that lead to storing more calories? (I might be misunderstanding this part though).

And is the mismatch is worse at the 50-50 level then eating more carbs would be better (get you off that peak) so a full meal would vastly negate the effect?

Is a discussion of the discussion healthier?
I think this unfortunately goes into the same direction a lot of political discussions tend to go. Two rigid philosophies and one has to win. In the real world either one can work if applied correctly. And both can learn from each other.

FP brings a lot of interesting concepts to the table that are useful. But I doubt that people that screw up OOP will screw up less with FP

In the end competent and disciplined (in my view the number one attribute of a good dev) people will produce good software with any paradigm. Clueless people will cause problems no matter what the tool is.

Are you talking about http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jce8...?

I didn't sign any form.
But I came here to read commentators' statements on the subject. I only clicked the paper due to your comment. The paper makes the claim, early, "[OOP's] central premise appears to be that it matches the way we think about the world."

This is the same as the title, and enough for us to discuss. I want to hear what people here have to say about the subject. That's a lot more interesting than what this 1997 paper has to say on the subject. (Of course, people can comment about that as well.)
It's a little more complex than that "In thunderstorm accidents, the sequence usually starts with a loss of roll control. That is why keeping the wings as level as possible is primary. If roll control is lost, the natural tendency of the airplane is to enter a spiral dive where the airspeed increases rapidly and is soon outside the envelope. Then the airplane is in a condition where either turbulence or use of the controls can cause a structural failure."

In other words failure to respond correctly is the problem, not the airframe.
This isn't a great article IMO, heavy on the theory and light on the practical. Doesn't mention general tools like dnsmap, or shodan.

It's all very well knowing what you should do in theory, but that's pretty useless if you don't know how.

I've also never heard it be called "enumeration theory" before.
OK, well, that's true. But is sending an animated gif instead of jpegs really that much of an innovation? If I did the same thing using, say, APNGs would HN go crazy over that?
My AI became so smart it released itself into the world :)
Absolutely, it's possible and should be considered. I certainly wouldn't call for you to be fired for suggesting it; this is the kind of discussion we should be having...scientific, considering all hypotheses and available evidence.
"it better be a very open discussion in such a way that they can't get the last word."

So not an open discussion at all, then.
This is about suppressing information availability and opportunity in rural areas.

Sorry financially-challenged rural dweller, you only have a phone with a fixed data allowance. I guess you'll need to continue relying on old media for your information needs. Have fun with whatever the public library has to offer-- oh by the way we're cutting the library from our budget.

Oh and those of you who, despite our best efforts, discovered that you can learn a knowledge trade and work from home, staying near your family and friends, bringing money into the local economy rather than move to a city? Sorry, it's not in our political interest to allow you to broaden your horizons.
I've played my entire life, and run a handful of people with the exact same game.

Nick Faldo did an interview with Joe Buck where they touched on the subject, and he said without the complete conviction that you're going to sink the putt/make the birdie/win the tournament - you'll never accomplish any of it.

At the Pro level, the mental aspect of the game is more important than the physical.
I wouldn't call them morons, to me that depicts an inability to learn. I would say today there are far more people (as a percentage) that are incapable of critical thought and reading between the lines than there were 100 years ago, at least in the US. Many people are also much less educated than when the only entertainment was reading books.

Example: Years ago, when Obama was bailing out the banks, GOP talking heads skewered him. They wanted the banks to fail and rebuild. A few years later, when Occupy Wall Street formed, who were also against the bank bailouts, the GOP talking heads skewered them, even though they had similar political positions about the banks that the same talking heads where talking about just a few years earlier. How many people caught on to that? Lack of critical thinking.
I see. When you are out of irrelevant statements to make, you resort to name calling.

Yes, I think people in Latin America have a better idea of Marxist and socialist principles than those in the US, because it's much closer a part of their politics. They would know that The Guardian is not "far left" because some of them have been part of, or know people who are part of, the far left.

Yes, I think people in the Commonwealth countries have a better idea of what "center-left" means, in the British sense, because of their ties with the UK.

Yes, I think people in South Africa (which is a Commonwealth country) have a better idea of what the far left means. They remember - and I've talked to South Africans about this - how the Communist Party of South Africa was banned during the apartheid era because of its anti-apartheid stance, and the ties between the ANC and SACP.

Yes, I think the people of Mozambique know better than those in the US what a Marxist government is like, given the rule of Samora Machel. The people of Angola also know what it's like to be organized under a Marxist-Leninist one party state. Plus, Cubans sent both military and medical support to those countries.

I could go on, but this is basic history.

While in the US there's been, what, two Socialists in Congress, ever, and Congress refused to seat one of them because he was against the US involvement in the First World War, and prosecuted under the horrid Espionage Act?

And the US had two Red Scares, about the boogie-man pinkos?

And the US passed laws to prevent Communists from being union leaders?

Yeah, no. Proportionally speaking, people in the US don't know what "far left" really means compared to most of the rest of the world.

Edit: Also, earlier you mentioned the views of those "Western Europe." If you think it's presumption that bring up the views of non-Western Europeans, how are you not also presumption for summarizing the views of Western Europe?
Please post if you figure it out :) I've heard the statement for a while and am curious as well.
Scraping Google's GitHub
Google does a lot of their development in the open. Almost all members use either a real name, a real photograph, or a handle that can be traced back to their identity. I assume these Googlers are all programmers.

I went through all 1494 users at https://github.com/orgs/google/people and classified them into Male/Female/Unknown (this took about ten hours). I then used the GitHub API to pull information about each user, as well as contributions data from all of Google's Github repositories.

I'm not entirely sure what to make of these results. They're potentially pretty incendiary, which is why I'm posting under a throwaway. Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/bJXyTqX.png, OpenOffice spreadsheet: https://filetea.me/#n3wTD4xSK6rTn6xxZMtkxLq2w.

It's pretty easy to grab the data from GitHub's API if anybody wants to try to replicate this.
I would dispute the idea that "if they were a lazy coder in TypeScript, they'll be lazy in Elm". The fact that Elm forces you to at least think for a moment about how handle the failure case is a good thing.
Even if you're inclined to take the path of least resistance, as probably most of us programmers are, what does that actually look like?

You have one case branch that looks like:

GotUserList (Ok userList) -> ...

and another that looks like:

GotUserList (Err _) -> ...

Since we need to pattern match on both types of the Result structure in our update cycle, there isn't really an opportunity to implicitly gloss over a failure to parse. Of course you can try to make the decoder super permissive, but this is harder than doing it the right way. If you're REALLY lazy, you can throw in "Debug.crash" in the failure case, but there's no general solution for throwing grenades at your foot :D
Just imagine how much profit Amazon would make if it were only AWS and no retail operation.
Agree, the need for transparency occurs mainly when something goes wrong. But it is not also a question of control? Without human understanding there is no human control, with no human control we have HAL ... which sort of answers your second point: no, we should not let AI come up with it's own explanations that we just find persuasive.
OOP is all about the nouns while FP/procedural is all about the verbs. That's it really: are you modeling your system in terms of objects (nouns) or behavior (verbs)? It is super easy to tell just by looking at the names in your code. Semantic features only play supporting roles, they don't define the paradigm.
Why not use cgdb?﻿
Agree. I started embedded coding on Linux + Qt-Creator. I have everything working, compiling and running on my ARM and AVR chips, but Debuging jsut does nto work. Just can't find any proper info on how to integrate GDB into Qt-Creator and be able to just Debug like in Visual Studio. If this is not possible, that this endeed is very stupid, starting/stopping servers on a remote target and the rest...﻿
I still think that GDB sucks pretty much. Every time I wanted gdb to do something, I was just lost, I was not able to do it, and eventually gave up. That doesn't mean gdb was not able to do it, it was just that gdb was too complicated and obscure that it was impossible to me to use it. Gdb is not useless, because QT creator as a debugger is quite good, it it just uses gdb. But extending the functionality, like adding a print functions for my own class, just impossible.﻿
In functional languages it's easy to run into difficulties with extending a sum type without changing the defining module.
The Tesla roof is not positioned against asphalt shingles and the cheapest panels you get. It's positioned against high-end roofs, some of which are outrageously expensive. People buying high-end roofing (hint: they're rich) are much more likely to care about aesthetics. They're also unlikely to actually care about the cost of electricity but would like to Do Something For The Environment.

If you don't understand the Tesla roof, you're probably just not part of its target demographic. Is there enough of this demographic to make it worthwhile? I dunno, but Elon and his neighbors have a lot of money.
Ever heard of a not so new tool called IDE?

People interested in that emulator may also want to know that the non-obfuscated version (still only 760 physical lines of C, though that's partly achieved by putting opcode information in the BIOS ROM) has moved to GitHub:

Kudos to the author for this. I wonder what the reaction of Admiral will be.
> I am kind of lost when trying to debug a binary on windows

When I want to debug a program using the Visual Studio IDE I do the following:

1. Start the IDE and open the solution file.

2. Make sure the Debug Build option is selected.

3. Open a given file in the solution that I want to debug.

4. Select a line in that file and use the Debug, Toggle Breakpoint menu to set a breakpoint.

5. Run the debugger using the Debug, Start Debugging menu and wait for the breakpoint to be hit.

6. When that break point is hit just use the debugger to examine the state of the program.

There are different intentions in lawsuits; You seem to think they're seeking damages, but it seems more likely they're just trying to prevent the torturous interference of uncertainty he is causing as news breaks that he wants to be CEO again.

Leaks of backchanneling directly affect their investment and exit strategy. Whether he is CEO, on the board, or "a trusted advisor" the investors and company want to have an appearance of solidarity and confidence.
its not silly, i had the same idea to do that. i do it for any particularly expensive/valuable packages.
Sorry, I didn't know that since I have no experience with Ruby or RoR. Anyway since you have experience with both, are you sure it's just a 100% clone in PHP and doesn't bring anything unique?

Acela is really priced for expense accounts. Given that the entire Boston-NYC route was electrified for Acela anyway, it rarely makes sense for me as an individual to pay for Acela vs. the Regional. It saves maybe an hour and gives you a slightly more comfortable car but it's 2x the price.

I rarely take it but MBTA commuter rail has really gotten pricey. There are passes but I'm almost $30/day to commute into Boston by train between parking, the ticket, and the subway on the other end.

How did this got to the frontpage? The content is complete rubish.

And the floating modal on the center of the screen further proves my point.
My brother is building a small community around Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency, mostly from his growing YouTube Channel and YouTube was temporarily banning him from commenting on his own videos to respond to questions... which is odd and disappointing because he's highly engaged.

Anyways, he needed a better solution to just engage and respond to his followers and so we put together a community system using Discourse, which is fantastic (and using Mailgun as a mail server). Pretty standard stuff, but, very scalable.

And ultimately it solves his problem of engaging with his community!

It's new, but, it's growing and I think what I like most of all is that it's using some really best-in-class community / forum software. That is all. Enjoy!
A few years ago, most programming forums I visited considered OO the normal good way, and FP arcane, slow, and basically useless. This opinion seems to have turned. Basically Haskell was too cool to ignore so everyone played with it on the weekends, while Clojure, React, and Erlang promoted functional patterns for pragmatic system development...

> I actually wonder if we're swinging too far in the opposite direction of data vs. "understanding" the world. It may turn out that we can make some things pretty good using ML but not the last 5% needed to make them truly usable.

Interesting hypothesis, care to expand your thoughts?

Are you saying something along the lines that our current ML techniques builds an initial raw decision with statistically-based reasoning, that usually works 95% of the time (Metzinger's "sentience"), but to solve the remaining 5% of edge cases, we need to build more reasoning-style decision-making (Metzinger's "intelligence")? Metzinger is covered by Peter Watts [1], jump to the "Sentience/Intelligence" section.
