Exactly, the exclusive content rights will be a killer. I hope this is where the market eventually moves. In the near term content creation networks (CBS, NBC, Disney, etc) will probably try to set up their own streaming services to stream their own content exclusively. I think that they will realize they aren't making much money with their own platform, and hopefully if they are smart, will again sell the rights to other streaming services.

Perhaps having a minority of exclusive content will still be possible/desirable as a market differentiation mechanism.
This is also how Apple’s cache server works, otherwise it would need to break the TLS connection, and that is not an improvement.

I have personally looked at the accompanying connections and it looks like Apple sends hashes over a proper TLS connection. Updates are also signed as another layer of security.

It's an interesting result, but they do note that the subpopulation is somewhat self-selected: "Only approximately 15% of the screened volunteers were included in the study, and our recruitment method yielded a sample of motivated, educated, physically healthy subjects concerned about age-related memory problems. The sample, therefore, was not representative of the general population. "

A lot of what Sedghi is saying about definitions of fairness echoes my own research regarding how different academics define algorithmic bias. There is a large class of academics who would say that algorithmic bias is simply a data problem but I believe if we ignore the societal element then we don't properly account for many examples of algorithmic bias.

I write a bit more about how to define algorithmic bias here:

kdb+ from Kx systems is popular among users who have mostly tick data (billions of trade/bid/offer updates). It has bare bones SQL, and its own query langauge "q" which in many cases simplifies the queries immensely (with two features, "foreign key chasing" and "as-of joins" which are somewhat at odds with Codd's original pure relational model so are unlikely to get into the SQL standard)

I really do not know why a blockchain is necessary. If people have ownership over their own data, all that is really needed is a place to store it and some kind OAuth scheme to access and manage it. I mean, sure, smart contracts on a blockchain could do that, but so could hundreds of other architectures.

The data model is a big part of the problem. There are lots of different ways to encode the same information within HL7. People refer to different "flavors" of HL7, different ones for different implementations (and implementations are not just vendor specific, but site specific — EHR software is very heavily customized for each health system). Add to that doctors and nurses entering information in their own ways within a given health system (since the software isn't very clear or usable), and the data that's getting transferred is a huge mess.

Beyond that, a lot of the most important information is encoded in free text fields, and so isn't directly analyzable. And even when information is mapped to codes from standard medical ontologies, there's no guarantee that when that information is transferred in HL7 formats it includes the code from the ontology.

It's not at all clear what the optimal way to structure medical information should be, so it's no surprise that there's a huge amount of variance out in the world. HL7 is quite old (v2 was made in 1989), and every new variant has to support the existing variants. EHRs were originally designed around billing and administrative workflows, so it's also not surprising that the data structures aren't great for analyzing data or treating patients.
It depends on your perspective. Different people are motivated by different aspects of engineering – lots of folks simply like "playing" as you put it, and the business's bottom line isn't important (except insofar as the business can employ them).

From the business's perspective, they want the best engineers they can get, regardless of the engineer's motivations — as long as they can get them to provide enough value to the business, it can be worth some trade-offs like having hackweeks, etc. It's the business's job to align the incentives of their workers, and sometimes this includes throwing them a bone in choosing a preferred language, even though it may not be the most efficient.

This isn't very good advice for "any aspiring writer."

It might be good advice for someone who wants to write Hollywood TV shows or movies. It might be good advice for someone who wants to write the next Harry Potter.

It is terrible advice for someone who wants to make a living as a writer. The best advice that person can receive is to understand that you must develop some kind of additional skill or knowledge to complement your ability to write.

It's that combination that lets you add value (and find a well-paying job) in a HUGE number of businesses and industries.

Also for whatever his strengths are as a writer, any advice from Dan Harmon (or anyone for that matter) should be taken with a grain of salt.
Burger King makes an ad about Net Neutrality
Sure. 1) You are putting words in my mouth -- never claimed there was no evidence Qualcomm breached FRAND -- at least with respect to Apple, that is yet to be determined. There is no doubt that Qualcomm's licensing respect to competing baseband makers (or lack thereof) is clearly a violation of FRAND. What was said: there are real court cases involving Apple and wireless suppliers/patent holders (again, Nokia, Ericsson, Samsung) demonstrating my points that Apple challenged pretty much every wireless patent holders and lost or settled before trial. See Apple vs Samsung in particular where Apple made unsubstantiated claims against Samsung's FRAND violation and was dismissed. Even Apple's own ETSI expert came out testifying against Apple.

2) No, Qualcomm's FRAND licensing rate is published to the public time to time, so they don't look like they are ripping off anybody (or unfair). It's around 3%-5% range per device -- and it is not cheaper than whatever their agreed "preferential" rate is. Apple and FTC fanangled some nebulous calculus to come up with that absurd figure and claim that Qualcomm overcharged Apple. Ask them, not me -- and I bet you'd be surprised how far and silly they are willing to go to make their case against Qualcomm.

3) Apple's view on patent licensing is that while Apple's own frivolous design/utility patents are worth $7-$8 per end-user device (see Apple vs Samsung), everyone else's should be $0.00000X per smallest component that embodies them (see Apple vs Samsung, Nokia, Ericsson, Moto, etc). So Apple's problem here is that wireless companies like Qualcomm have for decades collected 3%-5% per end-user device and Apple doesn't want to pay that much, or anything close to that amount. Apple has little negotiating power since they have so few wireless patents to cross-license, but they are a huge volume customer. With Qualcomm, Apple managed to negotiate some discount, or "rebates" in exchange for exclusivity -- which btw was purposed by Apple, not forced upon by Qualcomm. But Apple still thinks it's too much. Instead of direct legal challenge which had not worked for Apple for years, Apple cleverly persuaded regulators to go after Qualcomm for anti-trust/anti-competition violations, which apparently looks like Apple had planned all long with the exclusivity deal.

It's not difficult to understand where Apple stands on these licensing issues if you've followed their lawsuits past several years. I don't want to sound like a tin-foil hat, but at this point, especially after seeing Qualcomm's countersuit, it's not difficult to see how Apple might have plotted all this years ahead.

We're certainly starting to see a gradual transition over to XML/JSON via FHIR, and I've even worked with a couple of vendors that are pushing RESTful web services as their preferred integration method, but agreed: there's absolutely massive inertia behind legacy HL7.

Implementation costs for a primary EMR are in the millions and most ancillary systems still cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to put in place. There's a lot of financial incentive for healthcare organizations to keep using what "works", even if it is ugly as hell.
Our society is full of people who aren't mature enough to handle the information properly.

It's not a stretch to imagine the kind of person who cares whether your grass is 3/8" longer than the HOA says it should be showing up at a PTA meeting to complain about how someone who once went bankrupt or starred in an adult film is inherently not qualified to teach kindergarten.

That's not something we want to enable so that's why making stuff readily accessible to the public isn't good. If someone wants to dig then let them but digging up someone's past should be hard enough work that you don't do it on a whim and it doesn't scale.

Burger King Weighs in on Net Neutrality
Do you remember when you asked that, roughly?

The DevEdition used to just be a dub for Aurora, a.k.a. the Alpha channel. And from that viewpoint it does sort of makes sense to enforce telemetry, as that's the whole point of providing Beta/Alpha/Nightly builds. (Not sure, if it really needs to be enforced, but it does cost them money to provide the download infrastructure for all the people using those builds and if they don't get usage data back, that's costing them money.)

With the Alpha channel gone (the DevEdition is now based on the Beta channel) and the DevEdition really being specifically built for webdevs, it does not make sense to enforce telemetry there, and it might very well just be an oversight that they haven't changed that in the DevEdition build.

Bad title (this is all about text classification/mining, not NLP), but a very nice introduction at that. Maybe a tad optimistic - I'd never even consider applying a classifier with 80% accuracy to the Twitter firehose (unless extremely noisy performance were a non-issue - but it never is ... :-)).
> The various measures of "structure" that we have today (Shannon entropy, algorithmic information content, etc.) fall short for measuring the kind of hierarchical structure (multiple levels of function composition) that is prevalent in high-dimensional problems of interest.

Actually the age range was 51-84, so middle plus old age, not all "elderly". Normal people flourish and are in their prime around 50.

Volunteers had "objective cognitive performance scores and clinical histories consistent with normal aging or MCI (i.e., mild neurocognitive disorder) and inconsistent with dementia (i.e., major neurocognitive disorder)." [emphasis added]
I don't understand what you are proposing here. The way things are done right now is we define some specific features which can include things like age, height, eye color, skin color, default history, average time a person wakes up, whether they prefer pancakes or waffles, income, and pretty much anything else you come up with. Then, we obtain a training set containing instances of the specific values of the features paired with the output variable we want to predict. Then, we pick a model and train it using this data. After training, we can test the model on some new data and measure its accuracy, that is, how often it is wrong, what is the direction of the error (i.e. bias), if it's wrong, by how much (variance) etc.

Some of the variables might turn out to be more predictive, and some variables probably quite a bit less. Some variables might turn out to be predictive even though one would guess they shouldn't. For example, people with brown eyes are more likely to be victims of crime than people with blue eyes. It might seem like a mystery, until you realize that black people overwhelmingly have brown eyes, and they are more likely to be a victim of crime than white people. Here, removing race as a variable will only make you and your model more confused.

It is important to realize that removing predictive variable will not necessarily make your model less "biased" -- in fact, it is likely to make your model more often wrong than before, and therefore less useful. The difficulty here stems from the fact that often laws require you to make "non-discriminatory" decisions, and if you attempt to do that, for example by introducing counteracting bias to the bias you get from reality, your model will be less predictive and so less useful.

Fairness in general is very complicated issue. Suppose our model tells us that blue agents are much more likely to default on loan, and this is in fact the underlying reality. The creditor, to maximize his profit, should therefore charge blue agents higher interest than red agents. If you are blue agents, this is obviously unfair for you -- it's not your fault some other agents who share similar characteristic default more often. However, if we have laws forbidding discrimination based on agent's color, the creditor must then charge both colors of agents equally, and since one is more likely to default, this interest rate would be higher than what red agents would pay if the anti-discriminatory laws weren't put in place. Isn't it unfair towards red agents then? After all, it's not your fault that some other agents who share some characteristic default more often...
we actually have something in linux we use, which allows us to set a 'position' for recording (sets a border to record in) basically, and we mainly use it for confirming terminal output / quick runs of stuff while on screen shares, or in slack.

I'd love to upgrade to 10.13 to get the benefits of the new file system. My complaint is Apple's policy of automatically installing new versions of all their in-house apps along with the new OS. For example, I hate the gratuitous UI changes they made to the Photos app, but running the 10.12 version of Photos in 10.13 is probably not supported. Even if it were, Apple doesn't distribute older versions in the Mac App Store.

"I'm stealing all your stuff. But ironically."
I haven't tried OBS in a while, but a few years ago I was really into the Heroes of the Storm beta early on and I streamed it a little on Twitch.

I actually wrote my own streamer because I wasn't happy about the resources that OBS required. Some of the code from that streamer I ended up dusting off, repurposing, and improving to write RetroClip.

Now, it's been a while, so what I'm about to say may no longer apply to current versions of OBS, and my observations may have been wrong in the first place, but when I took a tour through the OBS codebase, I felt like it was maybe supporting too broad of a feature set and supporting too many platforms to be able to attain optimal performance. Like, I'm not trying to crap on it, as it's an incredibly impressive piece of software, I'm just saying that there seemed to be a lot of data copying, cross platform concerns, and extension points, and the pipeline for getting video in from the screen and then out to the network just had a lot of work along the way, work that could be avoided if your only goal was to run on macOS and send just the screen contents to twitch as fast as possible.

So I doubt that a micro-optimization like my cursor compositing hack is going to be of benefit to OBS. I did that to avoid doing any copies at all of the raw image data in code that I control, and I would guess getting to zero data copies in OBS would be a long journey. There's probably a lot of lower hanging fruit in terms of macOS specific optimizations that can be done first.

Yeah, anti-virus is a crap idea.

Real security is proactive security (exploit mitigation, sandboxing, correct code, safe languages).

Reactive security kinda sucks. You have to patch known vulnerabilities, sure, but detecting exploits? Ugh. Eww. Do not like.

And indeed users mostly install malware these days, because self spreading (actual "viruses") is hard (we're not in the DOS/Win9x days anymore). So users should be proactive as in not clicking on TotallyNotMalware.exe :)
Consider an object. Now duplicate that object many times, add random noise to each object, and give it a random rotation in space (over the rotation group SO(3)). The goal is to recover the original object from the noisy, rotated copies of it.

"This is an exaggeration."

No, it's not. We're literally in a comment section about that very thing happening.

"If you are an employee, you are never going to get anything in a fire sale, so you had no reason to expect anything in the first place."

Bullshit. The leaders of the company got quite a bit, so no, it is not unreasonable to expect those that are actually doing the work to get something.

You are trying to excuse these shenanigans as perfectly acceptable, and all it's doing is coming off as saying that employees should just shut up and deal. But you're not giving anyone any reason why they should agree to these shitty terms; why they should bust their ass just to make some founder rich while they get stuck with nothing.

And then you have the absolute gall to blame this on the employees, saying that it's their fault they didn't leave in time. As if it's somehow their fault that the founder was a scumbag who fucked them over? And as if that the vast, vast majority of startups aren't doing the exact same thing?

You have no defense for any of these actions. The blame rests solely on the founders who sold out those that worked hard for them. And I really, really, really hope that these stories get around, so that it makes things incredibly hard for scumbag founders to try and deceive hard working people into working for worthless equity.
