According to Wikipedia:

"Plasma with a number density of less than one hydrogen atom per cubic metre and a temperature of millions of kelvins in the space between galaxies accounts for most of the baryonic (ordinary) matter in outer space; local concentrations have condensed into stars and galaxies." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outer_space

I knew that intergalactic space could see densities of one atom per some human-relevant volume of space, but I had no idea that actually accounted for most of what there is!

It's a lot more established and used on a ton more sites, covering stuff that wikipedia/wikidata doesn't, wikidata also looks to be just a subset of semantic wiki code and not as full featured or capable.

> That's the approach we know won't work. That was Tesla's first-round autopilot, the self-crashing car.

I think OP was talking about "crash avoidance" systems. Not systems that claim to drive the car but not really.

You're always driving, the car is just silently observing. If the car sees you're about to crash, it steps in and takes over. The opposite of Tesla's approach where you play the role of observer taking over when things go wrong.

The first approach is safe. The second approach isn't safe until full autonomy due to cognitive load and task switching delays.
If you lost all your 401K money, you not only lost the money, but you also lost the TIME that it took for that money to accumulate and grow. In addition, I would think there would be tax implications for losing that money. I don't know enough, but this sounds like a very risky and bad idea compared to getting a bank loan. In addition, your 401K is safe during bankruptcy -- in case your bank loan goes bad. The approach of using retirement money for a venture is gambling with your safety net.

According to a famous epigram by Alan Perlis, Lisp programmers know "the value of everything, but the cost of nothing". It reflects the expectation that a language which calls itself Lisp is expected to produce a value out of any expression which evaluates.

Though Common Lisp adds the nuance of multiple values, the behavior you describe is how it conforms to this general expectation. Code written in an everything-really-has-one-value dialect of Lisp can be easily transported to Common Lisp (or at least transported without without difficulties specifically caused by this issue).

Scheme, a Lisp-like language, allows some evaluable expressions to have an "undefined" or "unspecified" result value. Logic translated to Scheme from a Lisp dialect without attention to this issue can have a surprising or incorrect behavior. For instance, if the original code executes a do loop, with the expectation that it yields nil (or some similar false/empty value in the original dialect). In Scheme's do loop, if the result expression is present then it specifies the value; otherwise the value is not specified.
Good points.

Unix pipes don't read/write files.

There also isn't any reason why other implementations of pipes have to do buffered byte read/writes, passing objects is perfectly acceptable.

The structurally distinguishing aspect of a pipe-and-filter style is that the individual processing elements don't "return" to their "caller", but rather pass their result on to the next processing element. Without involving the caller.

I'm in a weird position on systemd. I like it as an init system and I like journald and logind (not that I'm very knowledgeable about logind).
However, I really dislike the bundling that is happening in systemd-world. It feels almost like an embrace - extend - extinguish approach, only for 'software opinions' as opposed to profit.

Sadly, this has become a very political debate, and I don't have first hand experience, so much of my opinion is based on biased second-hand accounts. Though I try to get accounts that are biased both ways.
Tesla took the opposite approach of what I described (the Subaru approach).

Tesla took the approach that the machine is in control and the human has to detect and take over when the machine makes a mistake. That is known to be a very problematic strategy, it's easy for the human to get distracted.

What Subaru has done is to leave the human in control, the machine only steps in when it sees a problem.

It's totally different safety outcomes. In fact, not even the same problem - one is "self driving", the other is "crash prevention".

Nobody is saying that one side of that divide is uniformly "bad" and the other is "awesome". There's obviously no "morally awesome" in doping–only "not doping". And nobody is denying that there is a grey area. But the existence of a grey area doesn't mean that the extremes don't exist.

To try another example: within the infinity of possible human actions, you can probably find something for every nuanced level of morality from "saving a hundred babies" all the way to genocide, with parking in a handicapped spot slightly on the "bad" side of average, and "looking at the watch" somewhere really close to neutral.

But just because we can't always draw a bright line between "good" and "bad" actions doesn't mean we should abolish all criminal law, does it?

I'm only speculating, but I think social media has only exacerbated this problem. Now every screw-up an employee makes (or a teacher, or an administrator, or whatever) is magnified times ten to everyone on the aggrieved party's Facebook feed. Have a teacher that said something a parent took offense to? An employee who misplaced an item you had ordered? An employee can always fall back on the policy and push the blame to the institution and the institution can say "we'll review our policies".

Funny thing is that as a bureaucrat, coming up with policies is my job. It tends to improve overall outcomes and satisfaction, but the same outliers described above are also magnified ten-fold (this policy is stupid because ...).
Kite-surfing introduces the risks of drowning and hypothermia.

Without looking through the stats, I wouldn't like to say which is more dangerous, and without data it would be reckless to assume one or the other because it "seems more dangerous", but kite-surfing comes with unique dangers that don't exist in skydiving, and vice-versa.
They're also publicly traded companies, so they need to look like they're doing stuff. Facebook could probably very easily cut back on 5.000 employees without a problem. But that wouldn't look good now to the shareholders, would it?

> language is difficult to disambiguate without context.

So why don't Siri/Alexa/etc developers give them context? I would LOVE to be able to say "Alexa, play playlist on shuffle mode" or even simple "Alexa, turn on shuffle and go to next song"

But no, the word "and" is completely off limits. Saying "shuffle playlist" instead of "play playlist" also doesn't work. I have to literally use 3 commands to do what I want:

"Alexa, play Taylor Swift" ... "Alexa, shuffle" ... "Alexa, next song"

With context, I could say "Alexa, play Taylor Swift on shuffle"

Apparently Siri is gaining the ability to deal with follow up questions in iOS11. Excited to try it out.
What can I say? Learning the language du-jour landed me a high paying job right out of school.

I had a choice at one point : Join the workforce doing web work (and make money right now) vs. spend more time in school and learn more while gaining debts and making no money.

Right now I am debt free, living a good life writing modern JS.

In my free time, I try to learn more low-level CS knowledge. It's however hard to justify the time spent doing this since none of it is of use during my day job.

Paraphrasing somewhat snarkily, you seem to be saying that selling securities of limited intrinsic value to as many clueless investors a as you can find is the future of fundraising. Screw Reg D, the SEC, any concept of selling only to informed investors, having some legal force behind your securities, etc.

Why bother pitching to people who are actually qualified to review your claims and business model?

IANAL, but I think the penalties for improperly selling securities are pretty severe, for good reason.
All this, as well as integrations: if a company is paying 100k for your software, they are going to expect it to integrate with their existing stuff in various ways and you've gotta support that, and a lot of times that involves hiring "integration engineers" to support that stuff while you (hopefully) build those things into a general purpose solution (which is more difficult than it sounds).

A lot of times enterprise sales folks are not particularly technical, so they'll often request support from a sales engineering organization.
Better still, get at ThinkPad with a hinge that doesn't break in the first place.
I guess what I am looking for is advice from practitioners who wont lead people astray who are really interested in diving deep into ML.

I have attempted to read the Statistical Learning book, and its so daunting because the book expects a lot of background knowledge, and it takes a while to really wrap your head around these concepts. I think people should learn from a lighter book, before diving into these books if you are lacking the background.

My current approach to pursuing a career in DL and ML is going to graduate school, taking a graduate ML course, and trying to apply my knowledge to different problems I am interested in.

I am reading the Bishop book Pattern Recognition now. I think from the perspective of having to re-learn a lot of calculus and probability, that book is more approachable than Statistical learning.

My advice (which I am attempting now) to dive deep into ML is follows:

1. Taking Bayesian ML class (at Cornell)
2. Read/Study Pattern Recognition by Bishop, for 5hrs/day
3. Try exercises, if fail, review solutions
4. If lost(which is usually), review missing concepts from MIT OCW scholar courses

The typical prerequisite for measure theory is a two-semester real analysis course, a la Rudin or any of its alternatives (I particularly like Pugh's book). A solid topological background is also a good idea, although you can probably get away with whatever you learned in real analysis. Two standard measure theory texts are Folland's Real Analysis and the first half of Rudin's Real and Complex Analysis.
>(but that it actually doesn't) is the primary thesis of this article

Kinda.

It does improve safety in the sense that someone with zero jumps under their belt is far more likely to die than someone with some experience. That should be fairly self-evident and the fact that they even list a common beginner mistake shows this effect.

That quote you've got there to me is trying to communicate that experience will improve your odds but won't save you from my "on a long enough timeline..." quote.

The other thing that screw this up is that a noob and an experienced jumper won't be doing comparable things. So the experienced jumper is safer, but is also doing substantially more dangerous stuff. Measuring deaths vs experience doesn't capture that.
We know that Amazon had Intel create custom chips specially for them, like the E5-2666 v3. So of course Uncle Sam have their own top secret bespoke Intel SKUs.
If you ride slow enough, or don't wear too warm clothes, you won't sweat. Here in Copenhagen 40% or so commute on bikes, including all classes of society from homeless and gypsies to lawyers and managers. 99% of them do it in their work clothes.

Kick bikes are incredibly unstable compared to bikes at their typical low operating speeds, and positively unusable at anything approaching biking speed.

The onus is upon you to explain where you have accounted for the existence of netqmail in your narrative, from which it is otherwise conspicuous by its entire absence.

You clearly went to its WWW site, but didn't even look at its changelog. Instead, you took the last modification date of the opening page of the WWW site itself and bizarrely tried to base some sort of argument, it is unclear what, upon that.

When it comes to discussion of qmail and patches, netqmail is a fairly important part of the history. Hint: One of its co-authors literally wrote the book on qmail. (And indeed updated that book to describe netqmail.)

"You'd love to be a free speech absolutist, as long as the people talking agree with you."

I'd love to be a free speech absolutist but where that's been taking us, my friends and loved ones are at the receiving end of fists, guns, and cars.

So... just to clarify, you're telling me I should be a free speech absolutist and say, "yes, let's just talk that car out of plowing into us"?

Serious, honest question. The violence is already here. Is that--more talking in the face of violence against vulnerable communities--where you see free speech absolutism leading us? Is that the place we, as a society, want to be headed?

(If it's easy for you to say, "yes," then I'm assuming you feel safe knowing you'd never be at the receiving end of a car plowing through a crowd.)

They crossed airspace. Nowhere do I read that they were aimed at land, or any place with people. This particular source (Bloomberg) is most sensational of them all (comparing to nu.nl, Al Jazera and Reuters), but they all agree that it only crossed airspace and dropped into the ocean.

I remember reports of Russia's fighter jets crossing (I think) Finland's airspace, which were explained as "one nation testing another's response time and alertness, common events even in peacetime". This was back when there were more Russia-related tensions (the Ukraine annexation thing). I wouldn't be surprised if North Korea is doing that with Japan's airspace.

Flagged for (1) picking the least clear source available (can happen by accident) and (2) editing the title from "appears to have passed over" to "appears to have fired towards" (that's definitely sensationalizing it).
It seems like the Kim regime is backed into a corner where only the capability to launch nuclear weapons will ensure that they aren't wiped off the face of the planet.
Does anyone ever wonder if these missiles run their path due to glitches/malfunctions in the code rather than what's instructed by the operator? It's just hard for me to fathom why a country would intentionally fire missiles at other countries, especially when it's a battle they cannot win.

No, we are selling utility tokens which will be redeemable for mobile data, never did I say nor would I suggest that we are selling securities of any kind.

> A better rule, however, is: do not try to time the market. Just invest when you can.

I'm not sure if I understood this one correctly. Is it like, instead of trying to find the best time to invest, like waiting for something huge to happen, just invest every now and then when you are able to do it. Is that it?
My best guess is that it's the result of 20-30 years of never accepting "shit happens, we looked and everything seems basically fine, we're not changing anything" as an answer when something bad happens and someone asks "so what are you doing to make sure this doesn't happen again?"—even when that answer's actually appropriate. The consequences are so bad if you make the do-nothing call and get it wrong (or are just unlucky) that everyone does a whole bunch of stuff to ensure they can say "look at all the things I did!" if lightning strikes twice (or if they were simply wrong and something did need to be done, but it wasn't clear until a pattern emerged)

Instead we always freak out and add a bunch of new policies/guidelines, some more mandatory educational videos or classes, and maybe bring down the hammer on some people as well.

[EDIT] in fact it may be yet another symptom of post-Nixon-era cynicism. We expect institutions to lie to us about everything (which, to be fair, they often do and often have), so we (rather, the media) dig into any problem expecting criminality and neglect and generally bad behavior (and a great story!), so institutions have to go nuts to make sure it never looks like there's anything there worth reporting as maybe-sort-of-kind-of any of those bad things.
