> I can't believe Wonder Woman got 92%. It was one of the worst superhero movies I have ever seen.

Not even having seen Wonder Woman, I can easily believe the 92% score—plenty of people I know who saw it, really loved it. If I saw it and didn't like it, maybe I would be surprised that so many of my friends liked it, but I still wouldn't be surprised that it got a high rating, because they did.
I wouldn't describe them as "chat rooms" exactly, because they have direct messaging and audio/video calls, etc. They are generalized communication tools geared towards synchronous communication. Email is async.

Without defending Slack (because I have reservations about it too), your coworkers should stop being mad you're not online, that isn't Slack's fault.

If plants having memories is something that interests you, then you should also check out this recently (2017/05) published study:

Temperature variability is integrated by a spatially embedded decision-making center to break dormancy in Arabidopsis seeds

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1704745114

In short, it shows a seed having binary decision-making areas that communicate with each other to determine the best outcome for survival.

From the paper:

"Both plants and animals make decisions in response to the environment to maximize their fitness. Plants use dormancy in seeds to move through time and space, and timing of the transition to germination is influenced by external cues, including temperature. Here, we report the presence of a decision-making center within the root tip of dormant seeds and demonstrate that it shares a similar configuration as some systems within the human brain. Unlike in humans, where this spatial structure is used to filter out noisy inputs from the environment, seeds use this arrangement to harness fluctuating temperatures and stimulate the termination of dormancy. Variable inputs therefore act as an instructive signal for seeds, enhancing the accuracy with which plants are established in ecosystems."

Spending your money on that stuff is contributing. By purchasing a house you contributed to the housing workers. And contribute more property tax. You supported the salaries of people in the automobile industry. You are literally contributing by consuming.

Seems KYC as used in the real world doesn't do a very good job of verifying whether the "customer" is Alice or the fraudster... It'd be nice if _that_ requirement had enough teeth to reduce the ability of the financial institution to claim Alice is "the victim"...
I am talking about their neural net format khronos is working on. We likely dont overlap. I am mostly focused on banking gov and telco. We are supporting this out of interest in being able to run these neural nets in our distribution. We have a few embedded use cases but we will likely write our own graph executioner for arm and the like.
Agreed. Thought experiment: suppose instead that Fraudster convinced Alice that he represented BigBank, and so Alice was duped and gave her money to Fraudster thinking she was depositing into BigBank.

The only thing she could expect from BigBank was politeness while explaining to her that she was duped. If it's a very friendly bank, she may tie up a manager for a couple hours, but that's it. If she keeps coming back, she'll soon be escorted out by security, or the cops.

Now, what if she started falsely telling others that BigBank took her money, and that significantly affected BigBank's reputation? Are we talking jail time, or just civil penalties?
Well, yes, Alice is the victim of slander, and the bank is a victim of fraud. But the important point is that neither of those imply that Alice is responsible for anything.

> making the use of non-deadly force (a TASER is not considered deadly force), lawful.

Your use of 'lawful' is a weasel word.

You are trying to have it both ways.

Trying to slur the dead young man as a 'vandal' and a criminal (I don't think graffiti is a felony in most jurisdictions) but then insisting that the news article should have been objective.

You yourself are not being objective. You used an emotionally loaded term, but then in your subsequent arguments are insisting on defending it by logic alone, when you know your comment was meant to have an emotional impact.

How can we hold Equifax accountable for this? They literally have one job, and have failed so miserably at this one job that about half of the US population has been exposed, regardless of their personal opsec.

Is this grounds for a class-action lawsuit?
Pretty much. I can afford to maintain an air of functionality. I was a functional addict, for much of that time. When I sold and retired, I no longer needed to function. Things escalated quickly.

It's probably not hard to forge a social security card and birth certificate if you have the relevant information. From there, a state ID (or maybe even passport) should be possible to get. I don't believe there is any biometric security on either. A determined identity thief might go that far.
No, because the information is not considered public until it has been widely disseminate for some amount of time. As I recall, 2 business days, but it may not be strongly defined.
You say the GPLv3 is too aggressive on requirements around patent defense, but the Apache 2.0 is okay? The Apache 2.0 license requires a patent grant. How do they differ in the patent grant?

I'd speculate that for many companies the GPLv3 is too strong in its copy-left stance, by disallowing Tivoization.
> I was not a good risk.

But you were- you had access to a parent with money to bail you out.
>Yeah, but at the end you can still fabricate the data, remove "outliers",...

Fabricating data is essentially fraud. And while it does happen, most of the problems with reproducibility are not problems of fraud.

It won't protect against outliers, but removing outliers will not solve most problems. It'll happen, but again, I don't think the majority of irreproducible studies are due to misuse of outliers.

>Plus it's almost impossible to imagine a world where, before any experiment in any field, you predeclare it.

Not at all. I'm not saying you predeclare every experiment - just every experiment you try to publish.

The way it works is:

1. You make observations (i.e. collect data - no predeclaring anything). If you see interesting patterns, you'll form a hypothesis.

2. This is the stage where you predeclare your hypothesis, and the criterion of falsification.

3. You now collect new data and test it against your hypothesis.

The hard part is ensuring people won't use some of the old data and claim they collected after their declaration. It's a hard problem, but not an impossible one.

People are in the habit these days of collecting a lot of data, seeing patterns, and publishing them. That's really not how a lot of early science was done. Once you see the patterns, you need to conduct more experiments to falsify them.

the thing about stories is that there are always 2 sides.
Given that lives were not in fact at significant risk, it's conceivable to me that they considered the amount of free publicity this would likely get.

PMML is alive and well for sure. It really only covers simpler model types so something aimed at deep nets models is a welcome addition. However, PMML is still alive and well because plenty of ML will continue to be based on simpler model types and modelers don't want to be tied down on choice of modeling tech even for simple model types.

Bitcoin clears and settles within a few blocks. Credit cards may reverse a transaction for 90 days.

The merchant could also let you leave after sending Bitcoin if the risk of double-spending was low enough (and network congestion was down).

Lightning Network will enable instant transactions without needing to wait for block confirmation, which is a true payments solution.
That's incredibly interesting. Does it line up with the geographical record?
It's definitely not routine for employers to do credit history checks except in certain narrow roles (and even illegal in many states). You absolutely should not unfreeze it for an employer unless they can provide justification for needing credit information.

Sure, and what of the users' applications running in the Docker container.

It's just not the type of "run anywhere" I was expecting based on the marketing/hype. And the more people kept saying "package once, run anywhere" the more I began to wonder how Docker was able to accomplish that without being a VM. Short answer: they don't.

I'm not saying Docker isn't valuable. It is. I just wish it was documented more readily, without having to sift through jargon, that Docker containers must run on a compatible kernel.

Essentially, I found it confusing how Docker was sold as a lightweight VM.

Your analogy fails because you still have to prove that you were punched in the gut.

Even if sex occurred (bodily fluids were recovered), rape shouldn't be automatically assumed just because an accusation is made. Just like we can't assume you were punched in the gut just because you can show that your stomach is sore.
There was no "getting bitcoins out into user's hands" other then Satoshi and the small group of minters who generated the majority of early coins. It was designed to exploit late adopters, more so when the published price is controlled by only a few unregulated black box exchange "markets".

If you look at the coin supply minted over time, in the first year ~3,000,000 coins were minted, 1/7th the total supply minted to a very very small group of humans. By 2014 half the entire supply was minted. These coins are now in in the pockets of a very very limited amount of users who spent very little resources to mint these and be granted credits in Satoshi's database. Think about this.

There's no real network effect when migration to any of the other altcoins is just as easy. It becomes incentived more so when actual usage of the BTC network is cumbersome with latency of up to several hours, and or $10-$20 transaction fees.
The individual isn't in any way a victim of the crime. A bank used some information presented to them to conclude that they were dealing with Alice when that information was objectively not sufficient to justify that conclusion. That has absolutely nothing to do with Alice. Alice is victimized in the next step by the bank when the bank claims that it somehow is Alice's responsibility that they took someone else for Alice.
There is strong evidence for it here:
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~sjm217/papers/oakland14chipandskim....

And regardless of whether you claim the evidence is inconclusive, it is simply not acceptable to dismiss a known vulnerability in something important by saying "I don't know of any case where it has been exploited yet."

If you think PI is too expensive, that is an issue between you and your service providers. As a developer of network applications, I have no interest in subsidizing your network management by going through the trouble of supporting NAT or NPTv6.

Yes, if everyone used PI it would bloat the routing table, but the vast majority of businesses have no good reason to use PI. Having five providers makes you a special case, one where PI is clearly justified.
This is very simple: the cost of this "incident" for Equifax is zero. As a smart business decision they are not investing (enough) in security and code quality because they don't need to.

Now if they knew that there is a $1000 fine per each stolen identity information, then the equation will shift and it will be a much better business decision to invest into protecting user data.

Your statement is nonsense. Regardless of your efforts, the best you can ever hope for is to minimize the chance of your car being stolen. You can never prevent it completely. If your car is stolen in spite of your best efforts, are you at fault? Do you still have to deal with the consequences as a victim of that theft?
> Why do people add the disclaimer about not being a lawyer. Generally curious.

I've always taken it as "I want people to assume that I know what I'm talking about, unless there are negative consequences. I still want to chime in, though." That said, I'm not a sociologist, and you should procure advice from an expert before forming opinions about people on the internet you've never met.

I'd REALLY like to be able to query deeply nested object attributes without having to test every single level of the object hierarchy to find if the attribute exists.

Function level scope would be great too - it would be good to conditionally declare and set variables in a function without needing to pre-declare the variable outside the condition test.
