Concerta/ritalin/etc are sit down and shut up drugs. It makes you feel neurotic and trapped inside your own head so you're not as physically disruptive as a healthy kid should be. It leads to paranoia and anxiety that you only grow accustomed to and can't grow out of. The lack of appetite stunts development. Just look for real world stories of people who've taken these drugs and paid more attention to what happened to themselves than "yeah I was less disruptive."

You're absolutely right.

And this is an easy, almost childishly obvious end-around to get at free speech. If speech is "political speech," then it is subject regulation suite A. If it is "advertising", then it is subject to regulation suite B. If it is "legal or medical advice," on and on.

Until there are no spaces left between the suites, and all speech is regulated.

Well, it's their platform so it's their rules. It would be dystopian if they tried to censor cryptocurrency-related Google Trends insights, news and other media. The pressure on the rest of humans to find suitable substitutes to Google and Facebook will only grow with time.

Speaking of substitutes, Google and Facebook have a strong incentive to squander cryptocurrency. The long vision is a direct threat to the way they operate, and to the very question of whether or not they should exist.

If there was some hypothetical way to decentralize search, email or even social interactions, DLT research is likely the path forward. The whole point is that the nodes cannot trust each other, creating a sort of differential company, where search is provided entirely by those who are searching.

This is vastly different to Google's model which had the ease of assuming that they owned all of the nodes. Perhaps this is why Google and Facebook happened first in human history; they were simpler inventions. I truly believe the decentralized option is better for society, and so it will inevitably exist. Emergent protocols are changing the way I think about how computers talk to each other.
> "The true test of product/market fit is whether or not it's obvious you have product/market fit."

The thing is, this is the sort of thing people _actually say_ about p/m fit. E.g. Marc Andreessen: "you can always feel product/market fit when it’s happening"[0].

It might feel redundant, tautological and unhelpful, but there are a heck of a lot of startups who are really, really trying to convince themselves they're ready for the next step because "I think we've got product/market fit - I mean, we got that pilot with a big corporate, didn't we?".

Statements like this are a reminder to bring over-optimistic entrepreneurs back down to earth and remind them there's still work to do.

What is your experience with platform support (linux) with the BananaPi?
Worth saying that advertisers are working on the basis of their clients. I think it's the clients that are pushing this change. And I think it's a vocal group who are shouting at those companies saying that their group is unhappy. The companies respond by pulling their advertising. I'd argue therefore that the advertisers and the companies, the brands have less morality than you might think - they are just reacting to consumer pressure. Demonitization effectively stops any advertiser, and any brand from advertising on a particular space. I'd also argue that Google is reacting to consumer pressure, which is why there is plenty of objectively worse content on YT which is not restricted (because there is no pressure about these vile videos).

One example would be the Stop Funding Hate pressure group who very loudly and aggressively by social media, campaigns to companies to stop advertising within The Daily Mail newspaper in the UK.
> As outraged as many folks might be

I am thinking that only applies to people who invested in cryptocurrency.
There's no such thing as auto-labeling.

Data Turks is manual labeling.

There is active learning[1] and related algorithms where you trace the boundary of your classifier and pass examples along that boundary to be manually labeled (as they are the ones the classifier is most unsure about).

But there is nothing "auto" about this - it's just being smart about where to deploy the manual labor.

Are you serious? Or is this sarcasm?

If you're serious: you're welcome of course to an opinion that google is right to block scams, and / or that most cryptocurrency ads are scams.

But you can't really believe that adults stop being adults, or that consent to judge the merits of, for example an ad, suddenly evaporates in the presence of a scam?

Is the presence of a scam sufficient to warrant treatment of the involved individuals like children?

That sounds like an awful world.

I have been trained as an EE to consider FPGA design in the hardware skills domain, and indeed I would say that this writeup ignores the less friendly parts of FPGA development (timing closure, clock domain crossing and more...).

Oh, please. Have you even read anything that OP wrote?

The OP specifically said that he feels like leading the projects and adding a lot of value. 32k in euros before taxes is awful. No one will give you anything unless you ask for it. Exploiting VISA workers is a common thing - he is afraid he is being exploited.

It is always a case of "wow, Alice is working like a superwoman for that shitty salary, thank God we have her on the team, because other people would have been a lot more expensive".
Sagan is a special case. Will be remembered (mainly) as a very good science communicator. Not so many people connect it with a famous and top-class scientist woman. The work of his first wife, Lynn Margulis, changed forever the concept of evolution.

If we put Sagan with Darwin we should not forget to add Margulis to this list also.

Ask HN: How to get a tech job in AI/DL or similar – 21y/o need advice
I am currently doing an traineeship as a system administrator at a medium-sized company in germany. after that i will have completed my apprenticeship. i think it's great here, but i wonder how to get the jobs/positions which deals with artificial intelligence or deep learning. i think it's really interesting. i'm currently 21 years old and very interested in technology - i'm working part-time in affiliate marketing and building websites on my own.

how to get into this kind of jobs? do i need a bachelor or something similar? can someone give me an advice? maybe someone has asked the same question before.

I'm still at the beginning of my career but I want to make sure that I have a successful way to go. My company does not work in the area of AI/DL, so there would be no possibility here ...

Absolutely, I'm just saying that the risk you are in changes depending where you are and what you do, there is an average amount of risk but it doesn't apply to everyone.

I understand that some people have very dangerous commutes, but for some it's literally 10 miles of traffic moving at <10mph 99% of the time. If that's your "driving" then the risk of having a life destroying accident is almost nil and it's probably safer than walking or cycling at that point(you basically sit for an hour in a metal cage that's barely moving, surrounded by other barely moving metal cages).

Yes, there is still a chance someone else around you could be drunk or speeding or distracted, but if you are sitting in an 8-lane jam that's not really going to do much damage.
If we do come up with a grand unified theory that spawns the existence of everything that's completely self contained and self describing, and it ends up being something like x + y = z, what does that really explain? Why? It's because x + y = z, that's why! Once we boil it down to that why becomes meaningless. Everything ultimately has the same reason why.

> The DLR is fully automated, but has a member of staff on board

I believe the rules require a member of staff to check the doors and permit the train to depart, but that can be done from the platform instead (and is, at peak times).

Full automation will be permitted on lines with platform edge doors; the intention is to do this for the deep tubes at least for the central sections, but it's a 3-step process (replace the trains with ones that work with PEDs, fit the PEDs, then remove the driving cabs) that wasn't expected to be done before the late 2020s, and that was before the severe underfunding of TfL with the loss of central government support and the mayor's fare freeze.

> Who in their right mind would ever want to work for, or even with, such horrible people ever again?

Perhaps it’s a mindset difference but I don’t feel entitled to other’s gains simply because they’re more successful than originally anticipated.

That’s not to say there aren’t plenty of other reasons not to work with someone or some place. From what I’ve read the working conditions at KSP for the devs were quite bad.

The idea of AutoML (in this case[1]) is to improve the NN architecture for a given type of problem.

In "normal" machine learning this is basically hyperparmater optimization for a given dataset (eg, the depth of a random forest, XGB parameters, the best random seed/jk )

In this case is tests different combinations of operators on a known dataset to see what performs the best. So it is optimizing the prediction network

(Also this isn't DeepRL, it's a deep neural network. I think that was a typo)

That's what I suggest people to use now. The USB microphone needs power and one more USB port. If the Pi had a microphone input, we would have absolutely no need for the second USB port. Not having to have the second USB port means we would need no chip for the 4-port hub. Having the distro supporting the Pi Zero that has 1 USB port has been something I've been dreaming about.

Piketty also did good job in providing proof that the discourse Marx's capital started is still relevant today: wealth keeps concentrating and that will undermine the whole premise of democracy.

“When the rate of return on capital exceeds the rate of growth of output and income, as it did in the nineteenth century and seems quite likely to do again in the twenty-first, capitalism automatically generates arbitrary and unsustainable inequalities that radically undermine the meritocratic values on which democratic societies are based.” ― Thomas Piketty, Capital in the Twenty-First Century

This outcome is probably clear to anyone who has been paying attention, but the power of Piketty's book is in the way it lays out mathematical proof using pile of historical data as evidence.

The response to Piketty's book from ideological opposition have ranged from "So what?" to more valid attempts at asking theoretical questions about the validity of r > g, but nothing exactly that comes close to debunking the core thesis.

Your comment illustrates perfectly why the black bar is a bad idea... unless it gets used for every death posted here someone will feel discriminated against and offended that it was omitted for someone they like. And if it is used for everyone, people will feel that its meaning has been degraded, because the black bar has become a status symbol - something to be "earned" or "deserved". And inevitably there will be tedious arguments over who deserves the black bar, and who doesn't, and what precedent is set by this person getting it and not that, and whether it means the moderators are biased, on and on.

All of this sad nonsense over a stylesheet tweak that in the end means nothing and honors no one and whose application has always been entirely arbitrary. It's a distraction which is best done away with IMHO.

If con-men give you money to find their next mark, you are complicit in their crime. Due to ad targeting, this applies to Google et al more than it would apply to dumb advertisement platforms like print.

No.

The example there is 7 lines (counting the NN description as one line). That's using a (easy) pre-existing dataset too, and a primative neural network.

That's roughly the same as in Python using something like the fast.ai library. I think that comes for 4 lines (not including data wrangling or inputs):

data = ImageClassifierData.from_paths(PATH, tfms=tfms_from_model(arch, sz))
learn = ConvLearner.pretrained(arch, data, precompute=True)
learn.fit(0.01, 2)
log_preds = learn.predict()

10 Major Accomplishments of Stephen Hawking
Did anyone start reading this comment expecting the usual downvotes and controversy?

And then realized after a few paragraphs that this is Stephen Hawking writing it? Be honest.

I just think there has been such a transition from books to online comments and forums that everything is picked apart and commented by a far larger group of people than in the past.

The man was a legend. His books were inspiring. Can today's blog posts and tweets be the same going forward? Just some thoughts I had while I read that.

RIP Steven Hawking, inspiration to millions!

> "demand free speech"

The top parent comment was not making a legal "demand" but was expressing concern and hope for a fair competitor to arise which treated different viewpoints in a neutral manner.

> "ads not content"

Nevertheless many content producers rely on ads to sustain themselves, and so by unfairly demonitizing viewpoints google/facebook disagrees with, the argument can be made they are doing evil. And especially considering their power as gatekeepers of the modern avenue of public discourse, we should be very concerned about them picking sides, especially for topics with a political component.
