Wow, so just the weight sharing architecture does so much already? I am wondering if the same could be done with LSTMs on sequences or CNNs on voice...
The IP academics keep making on the cheap is always compared to ARM cores in similar class to prove them out. They always come out superior. So, Im doubting best engineers or product. Since they do have good engineers, ARM must be intentionally underdoing their designs to maximize their cash or something. Maybe make a lot of them. Idk how much IP they actually have.

I agree it's beneficial that it's already silicon-proven by time most customers get it. The biggest selling point, though, was what ARM themselves said when open ISA topic first came up: the massive ecosystem, esp software and dev tools, makes the licensing worth the money. Im not sure how true that is. Probably varies a lot depending on who is using it but might be true for many. RISC-V needs to get its ecosystem super-strong to challenge ARM in general sense on top of pre-proven IP customers can trust. Ecosystem is the bigger issue, though.
Not if it needs a forked kernel to support the hardware (at least not without a lot of work).

If that doesn't scream "hush money" I don't know what does. What possible reasonable excuse for giving the lawyer millions could they possibly come up with?

To answer more harshly than before, you did not really try to help us get into LVFS. Instead, you continued to question our method of updating firmware, even though we have open sourced a large amount of our infrastructure.

Still, I have been changing our firmware updater to better suit LVFS and fwupd for when you finally decide to reconnect in a more positive way.
Admob Payments Site Down, Unable to Contact Support
https://i.imgur.com/KxbIzvCr.png is what I see for my new account.

Advice on the SDK forums was kafkaesque, telling me that I couldn't contact support directly because I wasn't part of a "certain group of developers" -- that group being those who earn $25/month.

I can't earn anything if I can't enter Payment info.

Think of it this way. For any given transaction, the spender will want to spend USD, the receiver will want BTC.
Lets say the receiver gets his way. Then the spender will want to hold onto the BTC anyway, unless the product/service is something they really need. The receiver will have an incentive to give in because if they demand BTC, then for most people they get nothing, but if they demand USD, they'll get USD and could in theory convert it to BTC while holding it.

Agreed, except that I would say that Uber has a lead, not a moat. Since the car transport market is 99% local, I don't think it would take all that much money to start something. Look at the competitors that started in Austin, for example.

I also suspect that ride pricing and scale will not be the determining factors. Look at the variety that still exists among car manufaturers after a century of competition:

http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2017/08/usa-auto-sales-bran...

There's such a wide variety in terms of both cost and experience that I'd be very surprised to see that drop off to one or two players.
A few ways:

1) Freedom of speech in the US is the most unrestricted in the world. "Hate speech" (or more accurately: whatever the current cultural consensus deems to be beyond the pale) is not an exception.

2) Protections for criminal defendants in the US are the greatest in the world:

* No other country has a hard rule that excludes all illegally-collected evidence, and legally-collected evidence flowing from illegally-collected evidence, from trial.

* More generally, we have very extensive rules of evidence that limit what can be admitted into court, to protect the rights of the criminally accused, and both sides of a civil case. The UK has similarly extensive rules, but the rest of Europe does not.

* An absolute right to trial by jury for anything greater than a petty criminal charge.

3) The right to homeschool your children. This is essentially illegal in Sweden, Germany, and some other European countries.

While it's true that negative feedback either by the game's mechanics or the interaction with other players is a feature of newer boardgames, there are a few other points that are just as important.

These games for the most part lack a player elimination mechanic. When games can last a couple of hours, players see early elimination as a failure in design. Board game designers then strive to keep everyone in the game and actively participating until the end of the game. This pairs nicely with hidden or partially hidden victory point systems.

Direct confrontation is largely replaced with competition over action selection, resources, and softer forms of territory control. Players with bad experiences of being ganged-up on are open to the competition of being the first to gobble up pools of resources, or shut out other players from taking exclusive actions.

I'm not that familiar with video games take on these ideas, but my little experience says they tend to do the opposite.
The damage of an illegal immigrant being out a couple hours longer is minimal. The damage of a citizen being falsely arrested is ideally the worst possible thing we should do. In the case of blatant malice like this, that should be treated exactly like the kidnapping that it is.

I'm curious how this will net out. Facebook for example is starting to crack down on 3rd party deals with Instagram influencers[1]. So the official policy now is that you need to run things as branded content (how well it is being enforced is another story). My guess is Youtube will have a similar policy, and provide a toolset for brands to go through to setup these partnerships, and of course give Youtube a cut while probably pushing the advertiser to spend on behalf of the influencer to actually get any reach worth caring about.

I agree with you that Bitcoin price is hugely speculative. There have been many bubbles. Most notably, $100->$1000->$200, in late 2013 through 2014, and $500->$10000->??? in 2016-2017. The future is unknowable, but arguably much of the overall ~10^6 increase since 2010 reflects real growth in demand. I mean, only some thousands were fully aware of Bitcoin in 2010-2011. Now billions are.

Even so, I don't believe that it's a Ponzi scheme. Maybe someone controlling Mt Gox accounts orchestrated the 2013-2014 bubble. Mt Gox had huge market share back then. But now, I doubt that any player dominates enough to run a Ponzi scheme.

When Linus Media Group sells advertising segments (an example of baked-in advertising), they don't provide user data. The advertisers purchase segments with the knowledge of the kind of crowd Linus Media Group attracts.

Linus isn't going to open a video talking about women's pantyhose. He will open a video talking about an accessory, peripheral, or computer part that a viewer is actually more likely to buy. This is very effective advertising.

Since most of LMG's content is medium and long format and doesn't rely on complete artistic integrity in each of its videos as part of the value, baked-in advertising is acceptable and understandable.

While baked-in advertising still doesn't work for other kinds of creators, it doesn't mean some form of targeted advertising can not be done in an ethical fashion.

When things are done right, capitalism does not have to mean that. Employees can, for example, own stock in the company where they work. Some companies basically insist that employees do so and intentionally develop an employee-owned company culture.

Of course, when workers and stockholders are entirely separate classes of people, then, basically, yes. But that is not an inevitable outcome, even though it seems to generally be the state of things currently.

Another question I have is about recursion. Browsing through the code a little bit, I see loops and comprehensions are often used but I'm not sure I've seen a single recursive function. Is recursion something you've consciously tried to avoid and if so can you speak about the rationale on that topic?

Sorry, I'm not following. The thing that makes a store of value useful is stable demand. This metric demonstrates stable demand. Holdings are irrelevant.

As an example of the difference, look at oil or bananas. Demand for those is significant, but because storage is inconvenient, holdings are low compared with total commodity flow.

As a shopping platform, Alexa is shit. Nobody wants to shop by voice. Unless maybe you're visually impaired. But I can't skim reviews or anything like that via Alexa.

But, I love the Echo so much, I recently upgraded from a single Dot to a full Echo and added two more Dots to the house.

Being able to ask Alexa for a weather forecast while getting dressed in the morning is great. Asking Alexa to play music or change songs/volume while I'm doing the dishes without drying my hands and fiddling with my phone is awesome. Setting kitchen timers while my hands are dirty from cooking, or while I'm putting something into the oven (I tend to forget if I wait until I've walked away from the oven) is pretty damn useful.

My kids love asking Alexa questions, and some of the skills (like the Magic Door) are huge hits with them.

Overall, I think assuming the Echo is meant for shopping is a bad assumption. It is meant to pull you into the Amazon ecosystem (Echosystem?), but I don't think voice shopping will ever be successful.

Having spent my entire career, 15+ years, in "weakly typed" or whatever you call it, languages, such as basic, vbScript and JavaScript I don't get this type hype. In "unsafe" languages that have overflows I get it will help to make it less unsafe, but in high level languages such as JavaScript why do you even need static (not sure I'm using the right vocabulary) typing !? Such as HypeScript, err I mean TypeScipt. Is there an entire field of programmers out there that get bugs because they are mixing numbers and strings !? I also did that a lot as a beginner in JavaScript as the plus sign is used both as concatenation and addition.
I read a study here on HN a while ago (that probably was sponsored by $M) that stated using TypeScript would prevent most of the bugs found on GitHub, but of course there where no examples of where type annotation would have helped. So what's with this type frenzy ?
Sure, the rejection rate is much higher on dating sites, but that's because the barrier to entries is lower. Just, don't take it personal, treat it as something abstract, like imagine your using a brute force algorithm to crack a code. Its just a matter time before you get in. Just, gotta keep messaging until you get that date. Based on talks I've had with coworkers and friends, a typical first message response rate is something in the 5-10% range. Hey, that's a lot better than most marketing campaigns. With a first date percentage in the 1-2% range.

I know that sounds hopelessly low, but, as Paul graham says, in beginning, you gotta do things that don't scale.

It's a bit weird to some of us Christians, too. :-) Some of us realize that the Bible is a book of metaphors and guidelines, not a literal future-history account. What John saw in his visions and how to interpret that has been a major source of discussion among religious scholars for a very long time now.

Those things save lives, and I'm not going to cut corners to save a few bucks, only to find that your hack job installer didn't connect them to repeat alarms properly throughout the building, or you used some trendy junk that doesn't actually work reliably if the power goes out, Internet is down, or some other dumb thing that should have nothing at all to do with safety systems ever.
System76 employee here! We do have a number of HiDPI models.

Oryx Pro usually has a 4K HiDPI option, but it looks like it's currently sold out. Our WS models also have 4K options, but they're pretty specialized machines.

In my opinion, stars earned by taking and holding Tokyo should scale with the number of players. Otherwise, the strategy is to stay the heck out of Tokyo, buy cards, and then roll for your stars once you acquire enough power-advantages.

With 4 players, you have to weather 3 rounds of potential attacks to get the 2 stars for endurance, whereas in a 2 player game, you only need to survive one round of potential attacks to get the bonus. Furthermore, as you are yielding more often in order to not-die, other players are getting a star for it, so the advantage is less.
