While they did use their own simple DNN classifier (because they couldn't find one), it was treated as a black box for purposes of the attack. A more robust classifier (probably using multiple methods) would be more resistant to attack, but the attack would still work, just the changes would be more obvious. At some point you hit "human-recognizable" but it's unclear where that point is.

No, its every day syndrome around here for this type of thing, I've seen it frequently. A lot of people on HN are not receptive to someone posting a blog entry about their experiences re-implementing something for learning purposes if it isn't super advanced stuff. I don't really get it, but there are a lot of people who can't read a technical blog post from the perspective of someone with less experience than them trying to learn new stuff. So, you get a lot of the comments about how what you did is dumb and wrong, even though you are really just trying to build something for fun, learn some stuff, and post about your experience.

For the record, I enjoy posts like this. This is how you learn and hone new skills. Everyone does this kind of thing (well, lots of people do), but for whatever reason those that write it up get attacked sometimes.
China seems like the place to build the first hyperloop. It would cost a lot less and they’ve already embraced HSR.

They’re increasing their trains to 248 mph.

https://www.nbcnews.com/mach/science/china-reclaim-title-wor...

Long routes like Beijing/Shanghai would greatly benefit from a hyperloop. They transport almost 1.5 billion people yearly on 12,000 miles of HSR, and they’re building another 10,000 miles.
California allows drivers to self-insure. The existing auto insurers are going to lose that business to automated taxi fleets.

I really wish something like this were available on Linux. I moved an old Mac to Linux (no OS updates from Apple), and the biggest things I miss are good support for multitouch gestures with Apple Magic Trackpad and an app like BetterTouchTool that helps make the standard experience even better. I bought BetterTouchTool (when it went to a paid app from donationware), and I would buy something like it if it were available on Linux. I spent quite sometime researching for solutions and trying some stuff, but right now the experience of using the Magic Trackpad on Linux is just the same as using a mouse.
You're somewhat missing something. Take the Exchange Gemini: I send USD to Gemini and then I purchase BTC on Gemini and am charged a 0.25% fee on my purchase. So far I haven't paid any transaction mining fees and it's because Gemini isn't actually settling these transactions on the blockhain.

Now, if I were to move these coins off Gemini, then I would pay the mining fee of $2. However, I could just wait 5 weeks and only pay that once, since the fee doesn't scale with the transaction amount.

I think it's competitive in the amount of data it can handle although we achieve this in a different manner than OpenFin (pure virtualization with limited DOM rendering as opposed to canvas rendering). This also makes it easier to play around with event handlers and perform other DOM manipulation. OpenFin does allow for plain table view while we focus only on pivot table, but that is something we could easily add if people would find it useful.
I'd be careful, both Politifact and Snopes have been caught pushing their own slanted narratives. Example: When Bernie says black youth unemployment is ~50%, it's true. When Trump says the same, it's false.

My understanding is this step isn't really a necessity but rather was done to prove that ME could be disabled at an extremely low level since the missing binaries would no longer trigger what's effectively a failure condition.

> The problem of the reader needing to understand is story is not in the story itself. Anytime anyone reads anything, their goal is to figure out what they are reading... so that problem doesn't add anything.

I feel you're been needlessly pedantic here. Sure, the reader always has to parse each sentence and understand it. But that's pretty different from the author deliberately introducing a non sequitur that cannot be understood until the later resolution.

> It's just a totally different structure.

What skybrian is saying is that, yes, at one level the structures are different, but at the next level of abstraction there are commonalities. In both cases a tension is created in the reader which is then later resolved.

In conflict-based stories, most of the tension comes from the reader sympathizing with the protagonist who is directly experiencing the tension. In kishōtenketsu, the reader experiences a tension the characters do not because it's not "in world".

Even in Western literature, this technique is used all the time. Foreshadowing is common. Many stories shift viewpoints between multiple characters so that the reader has access to insight the characters do not, and that's used to deliberately create tension and anticipation in the reader.
So people who sell microphones should care about what's said on the microphone, otherwise they should deny the sale? That doesn't sound logical from a business perspective and would lead me to suspect an alterior motive.
Real high speed in Germany does not make sense, too many stops due to political reasons ("Wolfsburg" comes to mind and "Kassel"). That's the reason new ICE trains are slower than their predecessors. Other countries have far fewer stops on high speed routes and can therefor have faster trains (e.g. Japan and France).
This seems to be the same idea that Google rolled out over YouTube. Demonetize videos that "may not be appropriate for all advertisers." However, the videos which are usually being demonetized are those simply expressing a dissenting opinion. It's going to be interesting what this system classifies as "fake" or "incorrect" news.

I've been a programmer for 30 years, and I could reasonably be considered to be a senior dev.

Yes, I'm very happy with my job. I work at a company which cares deeply about solving hard problems well, and that care translates into good working conditions, great work/life balance, support from management for engineering concerns, and a very nice benefits package. There is also a focus on having separate promotion tracks for managers vs. more technically inclined people.

There have been jobs where I have either tired of the novelty of the problems, changes in management, changes in company policy, etc., but at that point I find a new job in a better company and continue to find happiness.

If you're not happy where you are, and you are considered a senior dev, then take responsibility for yourself and find a position that you enjoy. If you're locked into a company because of golden handcuffs, lack of local resources, or family obligations, then find activities outside of work that provide what you're missing.

> (inb4 1st amendment is only for the gov - that is a selective truth. the principles of free speech exist outside of government.)

You say this as if it isn't a perfectly valid point. You have the right guaranteed by law to express an opinion. No one, no matter what size corporation or platform, is expected to give you a podium from which to do so.

More to the point, freedom of speech has never been an absolute, not in the way most extremist activists would have you believe. There has always been exceptions, but the common theme of them is incitement, either incitement of panic that endangers safety (yelling "fire" in a crowded theatre), incitement of hatred against a group of people, or incitement of a riot, on and on. There are all kinds of ways the Government limits your speech.

Since your use of Facebook is effectively using their network to promote your speech, Facebook is basically speaking for you to a certain degree, that means Facebook has a vested interest to not speak hateful nonsense so it by itself does not become the subject of either lawsuits from the Government or public outcry, the latter of which has already happened, the former entirely in the scope of possibilities if they continue to act like the typical tech bro and try not to take sides in the name of "Free Speech" a.k.a maximum audience numbers.

Im skeptical you can do real autonomous driving without context. In DC, we have roads that flow one direction part of the day and another direction the other part. We've got roads that will be shut down unpredictably when there is a diplomatic event. We've got constant construction, where a two lane road might be reduced to one lane with a human holding a sign or using hand signals to usher cars through on their turns. How does a self-driving car handle that without understanding context?
It's fair to note it as the most probable of the "Zombie Apocalypse" category, but "impossible" isn't the common theme of that category, it's "civilization ending".

Under all of the scenarios in Problem Space #3, the world is irrevocably changed and there is not necessarily any reason to think it will go back to the way thing are now in the survivors' lifetimes. In the other two problem spaces, you are looking at perhaps-widespread but finite disruptions. Maybe an entire country or region of a large country is hosed for years or decades, but you can either expect things to go back to normal eventually, or you can migrate to somewhere where things are normal. With either a zombie apocalypse or a nuclear one, you don't have that expectation, and whatever you do to prepare for that situation will be largely the same.

Magic Leap is certainly capable of releasing a dev kit, but it will not feature most of the technologies present in their prototypes.

Yes, AR and VR can be combined into a single device, and that will most likely be the way to mainstream commercial success in the future, but at present, current headsets offer an incomparable experience in terms of immersion and pure enjoyment. Have you tried the Vive or Oculus with touch controllers? Being tethered to a gaming PC allows for much higher graphical performance than a mobile device.

I see no reason for such animosity towards VR. Saying that current VR devices are pointless because VR will be later combined with AR devices is like saying the Palm Pilot was pointless because its functionality would be later included with smartphones.

(I would argue that the end-goal of VR is actually quite divergent from AR; the future of VR would be the Matrix, where your mind itself is in a completely simulated environment. In the mean time, we make do with the Vive.)

I borrowed a friend's Microsoft Hololens and it basically delivers this. I had a giant floating Microsoft Edge window, playing YouTube, in my dining room. It's able to map out the area you're in, so the Edge window remained in my dining room after I left. Combined with a keyboard I could see it completely replacing my laptop.

However, the field of view is incredibly small and you look like an idiot wearing one. Maybe 10 years from now we'll get there.
A better approach with an extremely volatile asset like Bitcoin is a simple tactical asset allocation strategy.

For example, the following system significantly outperforms both buy-and-hold and dollar-cost averaging strategies.

1. Buy when the monthly price of Bitcoin is greater than its 10-month simple moving average (SMA).
2. Sell (and move to cash) when the monthly price is less than its 10-month SMA.

That's it. Market timing improves the risk-adjusted returns with minimally increased transaction costs versus a buy-and-hold strategy.
This is not confined to tech. When I look at senior people in all the fields my friends and family work in, you have a small core group who - bless them - live for the work and thrive on it, a good chunk of very successful people who like it enough and realize the fullness of life is not entirely in the job.

Slippery slope arguments are not particularly convincing. You need strong argumentative support to make it plausible and work.

Just saying “A may be harmless but will lead to the unintended consequence of B” is just not at all convincing, as are most of the times slippery slope arguments are used.

Make no mistake, slippery slopes do actually exist, but that’s not some kind of automatic mechanism that always kicks in. If someone makes a slippery slope argument I want them to show me that those consequences are actually plausible.

> the principles of free speech exist outside of government

The principle of free speech is that actors who are not exercising the monopoly, coercive power of government are free to choose which views to express or relay, and that persuasion not obligation (legal, moral, or otherwise) of some actors to neutrality will determine the success of ideas in spreading.

The concept of free speech does not involve some private actors being entitled to other private actors’ resources.

(There is a legitimate issue with some “private” actors being really public actors where the structure of property rights and natural features of the market for certain infrastructure creates monopolies or oligopolies on essential mechanisms of communication.)
Granted, but there is arguably a lot more money behind autonomous driving than there ever was behind speech recognition and synthesis. It was a different problem space, but the situation is probably comparable to the space race - the winner will dominate a new market of hundreds of billions in size. The motivation is really really strong, and with it comes lots of funding and talent.
