Yes I agree that it is sensitive.

The part that annoys me is this backdrop of "machines are going to be doing everything and no one is going to have anything to do".

When in reality it's going to be an assistant next to the existing people, increasing efficiency. Like farming tools for a farmer, or auto-pilot for a pilot, or robo-equipment for a surgeon.

I often hear from non-programmers and non-technical people who somehow seem convinced that AI is some kind of dark magic that is going to kick in at some point and everything is going to be magically solved by it.
Ads are a plague that drive content creators toward ever increasing shock value just so that they can get clicks. Quality be damned, views are all that matter.

I would say this is more damaging.

Bitcoin maximalists may accidentally be right occasionally, but I wouldn't take advice from them.
Just because you you are not intrested in discussing the topic in my mind does not justify flaging it. It is pretty obvious that many people are still intrested in discussing it.
Just like every John Doe currently knows exactly what Trump should or shouldn't do in regards to North Korea and how China will react.
You're mentioning a valid point, but this behavior is always the same. I guess that's human.
Websites have been running for 11+ years now and they're well established with lots of traffic.
That's a good monthly rate, but $2,000 USD for installation is eyewatering. I'm paying Centurylink $85 for 1Gbps / 1Gbps here in Portland, OR and they preemptively ran fiber all the way down my block before they had any subscribers (they went door-to-door for weeks after that trying sign everyone up). They also didn't charge me anything for installation.
Benchmark board seat is the rumored anon source of several of the negative stories about the company the last few months. As Gurleys patience with Travis soured, their strategy shifted to stoking the PR crisis deeper so they can purge management and gain control. Other shareholders and employees should rightly be outraged.
Flash and its history on the web
See I disagree. But your viewpoint (which seems to be the majority here) is why I believe it has been flagged so much.

And I will say there have been some stories I've seen flagged on this topic that did not offer anything new and weren't worth discussing.

I understand it covering the site in the stories, but I'm not a fan of the near blackout we've come to.
> And I expect better from Bloomberg when it comes to clickbait.

It's funny you mention that ... over the past week, I've found myself seeing more bloomberg promoted posts on facebook (I've been purging/blocking "viral" pages from my feed), and thought to myself, "these are awfully clickbaity". This is anecdotal of course ... but thought it was funny to see the same thought mentioned here :)

This isn't correct, you can actually fund the Filecoin ICO with cash(USD), BTC, and also ETH[1] as long as you are an accredited investor.

To the contrary, CSS Grid Layout has excellent support. All modern browsers aside from Edge. For Edge, IE11, and IE10, you can use the original Grid spec since it's frozen in time and can replicate most of what Grid can do today, albeit it's more complicated and explicit.

Considering Bootstrap does not support the same browsers that CSS Grid does not work in, this argument doesn't stand.

http://caniuse.com/#search=grid

If you look through the stats of every unsupported browser in the list above, almost all of them are %0.x. Adding them all up still gives you single digits. And with Flexbox as a fallback, you're covering virtually all modern browsers.

I really hope you consider adding this last feature to Bootstrap 4 as I truly believe it will be worth the effort.
I work primarily on lower level components in biotech and I see this whenever I start to dig into the "Enterprise" code base. It takes me _far_ too much time to find the code that, you know... actually does something. While searching I'm just wading through file after file which contains nothing more than types and small wrappers around other small wrappers (around other small wrappers...) It drives me nuts. So much code and so little actually happening.
I don't think that's true in this case. EUR/USD is a floating exchange rate.
> Younger folks tend to see cars as noisey, smelly, expensive, and passé already. Not sure that status symbol thesis holds up

That might be some of it, but Millenials on average are also less well off than older cohorts; they simply can't afford a new car, or possibly even a car at all (but might require one; not everyone lives in a metro with good public transit).
I don't know what the "right" thing to post on social media is. I don't want to brag, nor complain, nor talk about how average my day is. I usually just end up posting cool articles and never anything personal. I thought about automatically posting the #1 HN article to my timeline every day, for the likes.
A plateau is...
I've been saying this for years, SoundCloud needs some way for artists to monetize directly through the platform that doesn't involve advertising. Add a "support this creator" button to every page and take a cut like YouTube does with its Super Chat feature. I think they really missed out on this opportunity. Look at all of the podcasts that host on SoundCloud but monetize with Patreon, for example.
Do you think it would help to have a comment reply notification built into HN? Most of the time if I decide not to add a follow-up comment it's because the user I'm replying to has no way of being notified that I did. Or do you think it would just exacerbate the urgency issues?
The article isn't talking about competition. The article is talking about why the FCC didn't appoint more state and local regulators to the advisory board. These people hate competition. They are the whole reason we used to have exclusive cable franchises until Congress made that practice illegal in 1994. And they continue to destroy competition through things like build out requirements.
It might take some work but you'll definitely be able to get advertisers. The first step would be audience surveys to find out who your readers are and what they are interested in, and then you can go out and find advertisers who want to reach those folks.

However, if you're already doing books, what about Amazon affiliates or even, depending on the topic of these books, selling related products? If someone is interested in finance, business, or home improvement, for example, there's a lot of items they might buy beyond books. You can recommend them and make some money off each sale.
Sure, but your world will be deeper if you give it a strong sense of causality —or so I think. Un-Earthly geology, sure. Make sure however the layout of your map appears to be mostly a consequence of that geology. (Maybe you meant something similar with "consistent with yourself"?)

Unless throwing causality out the window was the goal all along, of course.
The flaws in Filecoin’s token sale:

1) Filecoin gave an amazing deal to their buddies, just a few weeks ago

2) Filecoin is being insanely greedy

3) Early clickers are incentivized, price unknown

4) Protocol Labs and Filecoin foundation are keeping 2x the coins that investors will get

Yes, which is why "--" is the standard way to avoid this stuff, and why people should generally avoid writing their own options processor and instead use getopt() or getopt_long(), which provide consistent, standard semantics.
Are D8-compiled applications backwards compatible with older Android OS versions? The article doesn't say, but I assume they would be if D8 is emitting the same dex format.
But is this really an investment in a company? It looks like they're just buying tokens in the hope that when people start using FileCoin there will be more demand for it.
I would not say anything at all. I would keep all interactions with Sarah as professional as possible, including not reciprocating physical contact or jokes. I would also keep a log of any times she engages in physical contact or inappropriate jokes, and document any interaction in which you felt uncomfortable or were accosted by her. Accusing you of sexual harassment is a non-starter, and that should immediately terminate any friendship you may have between each other. Friends don't accuse each other of creating hostile work environments. Sarah might let it slide this time, but next time you say something she deems inappropriate, you might be having a meeting with HR about "repeated patterns of sexism" or something.

Like others have posted, HR is not your friend. Do not voluntarily talk to them unless they have specific questions or concerns to ask you. If they do that, what you want is to have a strong enough paper trail that any complaints Sarah brings against you are properly rebutted.

One thing I would not do right now is apologize. An apology can be seen as a confession. You want to do what you said you did: assert your innocence in the matter, ask for a retraction, and walk away if none is given.

I have other thoughts on this (e.g., start looking for a new job), which I'd be happy to expand upon if you want, but I think the safest thing for you to do right now is just cease any non-professional contact and document the crap out of everything she says or does to use in case of an inquiry.

Good luck.

High Tendency That Terminator 2 in 3D Will Be Re-Released by Cameron
What about this?

- Host content A subject to copyright on site X

- Devise platform Y on site Z whose claimed role is to check whether user has rights to access content A

- Send DMCA on any list or apparatus that tries to block site Z on the ground that it would be a circumvention attempt of platform Y to unlawfully access content A

- Piggy-back on platform Y to do some tracking/stat building about ad-blocking

- Manically laugh at your brilliant scheme

Note that content A and site X could literally be anything and anywhere, possibly even as trivial as a haiku such as "our hard work / by these words guarded / please don't steal". It doesn't even matter that no one is ever meant to ever see the copyrighted work. In this case the copyrighted work could very well be the text/image displayed when ad-blocking is detected, making A == Y and Z == X to confuse everyone while they think this is about displaying ads W.

To sum it up: ad blocking enabled -> copyrighted work displayed -> user views content unlawfully -> ad blocker just circumvented a technological restriction intended to prevent this -> DMCA applies.

Another possibility is that platform Y is preventing ads W to be shown to a certain theoretical group G of people, hence if you are blocking Y, control about W cannot be enforced, whether you were part of group G or not (and of course you were not, but then even though you're not infringing on copyright about seeing W, you're still infringing on circumvention of a device intended to control copyright of W).

Totally roundabout, entirely bogus, but hey, not the first time such heavily pictured crap could still hold water in court.

Yep, Silicon Valley covered that as well. "Don't try to make money with your software! Because there will be solid numbers and it'll never be enough. Have a zero revenue model! That way all they see is the potential!" (paraphrasing)

A startup I worked for actually had exactly this problem when they had a big idea the company was founded for, but wanted to put out a couple small apps first as a warmup for the team. When those ancillary practice apps didn't perform amazingly well, the board of directors got nervous and killed the company before it even got started on the app that the company was founded to do in the first place. I'm pretty convinced in hindsight that if we just worked on the big app in the first place, the company might still be around today.

What a dreadful noise! I wonder if there's a good reason so much cold-war detritus is so ominous, so foreboding, and so nerve-wracking in its design, character and presence.

Maybe there are practical reasons in this case; maybe the sound is memorable, or recognizable even with marginal reception, etc.
To that same logic any operating system that allows editing the hosts file or running your DNS service and routing a domain name to loop-back or some other server is also liable for producing circumvention tools.
I didn't come off of this article feeling very impressed with Stanford's CS department. Someone with contextual knowledge please explain why I am wrong.

I've had my own calculus / discrete math / math for bio courses before but that was after several years as a doctoral student and TA at Georgia Tech. I can't imagine that there isn't a PhD candidate with more experience under their belt both teaching and using TensorFlow. The author even admits they volunteered to teach the course to stimulate learning the material themselves.

Apparently the copyright of web pages behind a pay wall. Blocking the domain causes their pay wall to not work - they probably load pay wall scripts from there - and allows unauthorized users to view their client's page without compensating them.

It's similar to having a movie theater with a locked door. We want to see the movie, but we don't want to pay, and distributing lock picking tools is illegal. And their door is "designed to only stay locked when a light is shining on it".

Here again, we are using technology to disrupt old laws.
The acronyms aren't changing, machine learning, deep learning, and neural networks have been around for 50 years. It's only recently that code libraries like TensorFlow have abstracted away a lot of the math to the point that it's relatively accessible to normal people that can write code.

Deep learning is a subset of machine learning that utilizes more than one layer of neural networks. So these terminologies just refer to different parts of the same process. The 'process' is just tweaking a program to progressively make more accurate yes or no assumptions about a set of statistics that you give it. That's my best shot at it, hope it makes sense.
It's difficult to say to be honest; for me the "enthusiasm" works best, I simply picked an area I wanted to know (e.g. self-driving cars using DL) and then learned some mindblowing approaches, like NVidia/Tesla using a few layers of simple convolutional neural network and static images to predict steering angles, and then some people stacked RNN on top of this CNN and made it estimate steering angle from 10 previous frames and a current frame. See e.g. selfdrivingcars.mit.edu

If you are into CV, first start with very simple static image recognition with AlexNet/VGG/Inception etc. in Keras, try to understand CNNs a bit (it's inspired by biological neurons, they can do simple things like direction detection, edge detection etc. and overlap each other's field of vision; if you look at computational photography, convolutions do something similar, so the idea is why not use a layer of multiple convolutions, then make a hierarchy of those convolutional layers, and let the optimization/learning part of Deep Learning during training figure out what exact convolutions does it need instead of force-feeding them by hand). Play with the ways to improve training (batch normalization, image augmentation etc.) Once you understand this, your mind would probably explode and then it's time to understand RNNs/LSTMs/GANs and have fun applying it on voice, natural language, generating art etc.

You'll have a blast for sure when you realize what you can now easily do! Have fun! ;-)

I don't feel entitled to access arbitrary content. But by the time a web server has already sent it my way for free, I don't give any fucks. If they can't afford to do that, then they shouldn't do that. But they probably do it because they can afford it, and find it profitable enough. I'll be happy to leave if the site sends me a paywall instead of content.
One more is the automation of distributed computing. "Big data" will be completely encapsulated and hidden to the end user.
As others have mentioned, the time of day may have effected reception of the 4625 kHz station.

However, in general, I've noticed that there seems to be far fewer stations received on the shortwave band these days, compared to the 1980's when I listened to shortwave a lot as a kid. I think this is because I'm using a low-end receiver with its built-in telescopic antenna instead of a more sophisticated SWL setup with a proper antenna. Broadcasters such as the BBC World Service target specific geographies with their transmissions so they can be received on a low-end radio, and they no longer bother targeting developed regions such as North America with these transmissions. I'm guessing if I used the same radio somewhere like Africa, I'd be able to pick up a lot more stations.

> the bitcoin network has utility

Utility and potential for utility are incredibly different. Bitcoin has no utility. I can't safely store value in it, nor can I use it for quick transactions.

Its only utility is speculative. The energy consumption is fueling a somewhat randomized, opt-in wealth redistribution service. That's not to say I think bitcoin or its ilk are terrible, but rather that the energy, in most cases, could be better used elsewhere (or like, not at all).

It's ok to like bitcoin. But let's not fool ourselves about the bad parts of it.

I guess the trick here is that while we can segment our lists based on interests, it might be a bit tricky & time consuming to constantly find interesting products to offer and tailor them to the many different groups. Which is not to say it would not be worth it.

Good idea about the audience surveys - though we do know our audience's geography, perhaps a general demographic survey would provide some interesting insight. Thanks!
