> Out of curiosity, how many authors and inventors do you think live 110 years after their writing or discovery?

Well now that we've all agreed(lol) that corporations are now citizens, I'd argue that some do indeed 'live' long after the normal squishy citizen(s) that originally invented/created the thing have died (e.g. IBM).

(Note: I agree with your point, just playing devil's advocate)
"It looks for matches by file names, classes, functions and other symbols, and matches the context and namespace of the symbols"

Correct. Looks like it just parses and indexes the source.
I took both of these courses and recommend. Practical is the key word in their description that differentiates them from other courses. The focus is on getting you up and running ASAP, then explaining the details and variation, then finally introducing you to learning how to translate the newest papers into usable code. You're not going to get a PhD from the course, but it will get you started on real-life projects.
It's a fair use of the term, and the kind of thing I would expect from old Microsoft. Maybe they'll add support for mac, linux, bsd, etc later.
GoPro completely changed skydiving photography. Before GoPro we would fly around with camcorders clumsily bolted to the side of our head. Now they can be mounted anywhere, with greatly reduced chances of injury (a fast opening can expose you to dozens of Gs, causing severe neck injury when a heavy object is on your head).

There are now a ton of options other than GoPro, but GoPro was the one that got the product/market fit first and changed everything.

If that really happened and it can be proven, he'll probably spend the rest of his life in prison. But I'm skeptical that that's what happened.
Well, consider common terms like “flyover state” and “rust belt”. What do you suppose a person who talks like that really thinks about the people who live there?
It's still a problem.
They claim it is waterproof to 33m. So I can leave it in a swimming pool indefinitely and it's completely impervious to water?

Edit: not m, but ft. The question remains.

(I'm very skeptical of the waterproof claim. Words mean things and I am sure they really mean water resistant.)
I think it's because you can give them money, and then be shooting incredible video 10 minutes later without much setup or hassle. Just like a small computer in an aluminum case with a good screen and camera, putting a few pieces together in the right package lets people have experiences they're excited about.

They have several attack scenarii, for which they need to provide countermeasures.

They are listed here: https://docs.clip-os.org/clipos/security.html#threat-scenari...
I'm so sad that they killed off the Session line, it was a nice cube-shaped GoPro, and it was great for quadcopters because the cube is easier to protect with a mount, but they weren't making any money on selling them so they had to go, you can see how it can be protected here: https://cdn3.bigcommerce.com/s-7sp5w/products/336/images/284...

I know people that have bought 5+ GoPro Sessions because it is now being removed from the market, but it has opened up for competitors to copy the formfactor, but nothing comes near in my experience.

I hope we get good protective TPU mounts for the Hero 7, but I have my doubts about flying around with a touchscreen, it is bound to crash and break :(
Tech specs and Hero evolution aside I feel the marketing department made a great video. Makes me want to go out and Do Stuff. While recording it.

(edit) Put differently: I think they really hit the nail on the head from a branding and association ("I also want to") perspective. There's definitely a market gap to wrestle about here.
Podesta had a security and support team fronting his access. He got phished anyway.[1]

Podesta was using Gmail, which has (or should have) its own world-class account security features. Numerous people, myself included, give Google no end of grief for their failures here. To their credit, Google have vastly enhanced their barn door locks now that the horses are freed. This includes identifying PEPs (politically exposed persons), and physical-token based security (Yubikey), but not additional-factor end-to-end encryption.[2]

Phishing has been a known threat since the 1980s.[3] Google failed to defend against it desspite numerous previous attacks.[4]

The GOP saw multiple accounts and entire emailsystems (SmarTech) compromised, leading to deep questions of compromise and exposure,though relatively little media coverage.[5]

Additional successful attacks were made against politicians, political parties, voter registration data, election officials, and quite possibly voting machines and systems themselves.[6]

The fact is that the US election and political system has been subject to massive, pervasive advanced persistent threat attacks consistent with state-level actor for years, with multiple independent systems on all sides failing.

Your question and framing are exceedingly disingenuous.

That is a great idea that not only makes you cash--at a very fair price--but also helps people connect in a genuine fashion.
This is when the government had a vision and the nation had a collective aspiration. Now we can't even imagine such a thing. Politicians have no vision and there is no collective aspiration or national goal. Politicians get elected so that they can be the ones who benefit from influence peddling and not somebody else. I can only imagine what we could accomplish today if there was a vision for doing so given todays technology.

To be fair, the $20 Chinese clone is of a lower quality than the GoPro I bought in 2013, 5 years ago. The image quality of GoPros is quite impressive. 4k@60fs and 1080p@240fps with GPS
and waterproofing is impressive for such small form factor.
But there's no atmosphere either, just the appearance that an attempt was made to convey it. I'm left baffled over Brennan's significance.
>I don’t understand why people go gaga over this stuff. It’s a camera in a plastic box with a screw hole.

Because there's a market for cameras in a plastic box with a screw hole (and the ecosystem of screw accessories).

Just because you don't have a use for one doesn't mean people don't.

>Are there that many Richard Bransons our there? Now that smartphones are increasingly becoming water proof I can’t see this providing incremental value over a phone in a fancy case in the long run.

The hacking of the DNC and of Podesta, and release of their emails, suggests they did try to influence the election. The social media campaigns may not have started off as a way to help Trump/hurt Clinton, but they probably turned more in that direction as the election approached.
I'm not sure if it's a stereotype, or simply outdated.

Much of what happened at the UN in its early decades was in French first, then English and the rest. I could see this happening at all levels within France, since it has such pride in its language. Unless that's an outdated notion, too.
You should think about then :-) Only half kidding here, its a great example of the difference between "parts" and a "product". And understanding why people go gaga over it explains the value it adds for them over the basic parts. Once you can see that value, you are well on your way to developing a product that you can sell for a profit.

The product here is essentially a point and shoot camera for people who want to take the picture but are engaged in an activity that doesn't make it easy to operate a camera, and further that activity might cause them to drop a camera and that would damage your typical model.

The original Hero took the notion that you could be out doing some sort of physical activity with your friends that you enjoyed, and if you could capture some action shots of the activity you could relive those fun times over and over again. It had a side effect of letting people who talked about doing amazing things bring a video to the conversation to add evidence they weren't exaggerating.

Its one thing to have a fish story of this huge fish that got away, it is something else entirely to have the helmet camera view of your efforts to land said fish and the heartbreak of the line snapping.

So there is value in capturing that experience and the Hero folks packaged up a point and shoot camera into a package with a set of features to make capturing that experience fairly friction free. People are willing to pay money to have that capability, and voila product.

Phones are bigger and harder to use. You can't easily attach a phone to a bike helmet or motorcycle handlebars. Phone cases are pathetic and won't survive a crash. Phone cases can't be taken on a 100-foot deep scuba dive. Phones (especially in cases) don't allow one-handed operation while bouncing around in the back of a jeep.

They are not solving the same problems or serving the same markets.
It's like compression - the unpacker plus compressed data takes less space than directly writing all modified copies.

It is actually higher complexity but shorter code. More vulnerable to mutations in one sense (damaging codon hits multiple genes), but less in another (shorter length means lower likelihood of damaging a codon).
> Instead it uses the target platform's C compiler, which is a lot less work but has basically no downsides.

The downsides of leveraging a platform's given C compiler as your backend is that now you'll be spending a large chunk of time learning the hard way about all the various incompatibilities in C compilers, and adding workarounds in your frontend for the otherwise-unpatchable behavior encountered in every old version of every major compiler on every platform you wish to support.

Conversely, the advantage of using a single known backend is that you can automatically know what code your users are running when they submit a bug report, and you can fork and ship the patch yourself rather than trying to convince an upstream C compiler to accept the patch, then convince the upstream distro to ship the new version of the compiler, then convincing all your users to update their platform C compiler.

Kit may have an easier time of it if it's intended only for games, since that narrows down its supported target platforms substantially. The harsh truth is that most game devs only care about one platform (Windows) and one toolchain (MSVC), so at least it can tailor its output to appease MSVC specifically.
Not sure if you meant to exclude this, this was established by a 1963 Supreme Court decision, but to date I believe only one prosecutor has ever been imprisoned for it.

I seems to me like breaking ground on gimbal-free stabilization is the killer feature here, if it is impactful as the marketing video suggests. For mountain biking, much of the video captured is too shaky to really watch without it being super distracting.
If it weren't, it would absolutely cripple the justice system. Any crime committed with no other people or recording devices present would be literally immune to conviction, no matter how strong the rest of the evidence.
It works across multiple platforms, so it is cros-platform. Perhaps the term would be platform-universal or something?
Make no mistake, Humans are still far, FAR ahead of other animals. We even have the advantage of thousands of years of backed up knowledge and infrastructure. We still mostly have a monopoly on higher order intelligence.
Machine Learning Confronts the Elephant in the Room
It seems ironic that the current press cycle is that tech both has too much influence in politics (Russia, the alt-right, Infowars/QAnon conspiracy theories, Google's supposed left-wing bias) and is totally ineffective at politics (this article, various articles about how big tech is now under fire from both left and right).

I think a more accurate narrative is that the Internet largely succeeded at what it set out to do: democratize information flow, communication, and social organization. And the consequence of that has been a shift in power from groups that previously had hegemony to new upstarts that previously never had a voice. If you aligned yourself with either one of the establishment parties (as most people writing the traditional news do), then the situation today sucks, because your star is clearly on the decline. If, however, you found that both parties of 1980s-America left you excluded and unrepresented, the Internet has been a godsend for finding like-minded people. Unfortunately that sometimes includes groups that we wish would stay excluded, like white supremacists.

Unlike areas like information, economic activity, or personal liberty, control of existing institutions is zero-sum. If your party controls Congress, that means the opposing party doesn't control it, and their agenda gets short shrift. If a new group (or 20) arises to challenge your control, that's a threat. That's the situation we're in now: there are dozens of different new tribes organizing for political power, and all of them are a threat to establishment institutions like existing political parties or the news media - hence the sense that the sky is falling.
But, PC is right, in that the Hero 7 is "rated" for at least pool depth, but there isn't a time qualifier in the copy.
For me a configuration file should be easy to write and read while not taking so much care about the data types.

So for me you get a shoe if you reverse your argument. Type limitations aren't improving write or readability IMO and just make it harder, because you have to think about using the right type. Application specific schema checkers should take care of the checking the type.
Ignoring user behaviour makes any kind of security solution fundamentally flawed. Good security takes into account what people do and how they behave when they reach obstacles.

Building your security solution in an ivory tower and then pushing on people will result in an utter failure - see PGP or password post-it notes on monitors.

> The most generous interpretation is that the French penal system is more humane than the US

That is indeed generous. French prisons are notoriously awful. A bit of a catalogue of official condemnations is available at the Wikipedia page[1], but more telling are the many, many anecdotes of people who have done time in them.

Of course nasty prisons doesn't mean that the administration of the courts isn't impeccable, and I am hardly an expert, but I rather doubt it.

and now octopi.

I don't think this is recent. I had a relative who raised octopi for sale in his garage in the 1970's.

His most time-consuming task was that he had to play with the octopi every day to keep their brains engaged or they'd get depressed and sad and die.

One of their favorite games was "jar." Where he would put various jars and other vessels in their tanks and they would figure out how to open and close them.

Eventually they would love the game enough that they would unscrew a jar, swim inside, and then screw it closed again with themselves inside. Then they'd look(?) at each other in the other jars and switch jars and basically frolic in the containers.

It was really odd.
> "Criticize privately, praise publicly" is a well known management trope

That does not make it right.
Sometimes, deep learning is too simple to actually work. (complex games with hidden state, exploration, generating art, decision making etc.)

Those use cases are in constant flux and research. (Though teams like DeepMind are making some serious inroads.)

Other problem is that DL is still highly sample inefficient - it needs many more examples than you'd want or sometimes even have to bootstrap.
Stats and learnings from 10 product launches
There is no point in debating whether or not this is secure. The inclusion of that word in the title is going to derail all of the comments here. They are using secure from the point of a layman. We know nothing is secure, the folks working on the project know nothing is secure. The government folks and media outlets don’t understand security and their use of the word “secure” should be disregarded.

It would be better (and create more interesting discussion) to pretend that one is reading a title that says “security enhanced” operating system, and evaluate the merits of incremental improvements offered, and not debate whether or not anything can be truly secure.
The real problem is that it also seems to be a common rationalization from the jury.

Sure, it's incremental, but static site layouts, especially the old float-based ones will have had their headers and sidebars loaded from the start and the main content would not jump around.

Modern pages with ads and widgets popping in potentially anywhere main remain unusable and unreadable because the main content keeps jumping around.

Bitcoin is not capable of running any complex code, so it’s not a good comparison. However, the issues you point out are definitely problems in ethereum. What ethereum has is a community of enthusiastic developers constantly discussing and programming on the platform despite its flaws. It’s like the JavaScript of cryptocurrency.

Considering the poison is extremely deadly, that other uninvolved UK citizens died and were injured as a result of exposure, that the poisoning was almost definitely ordered or approved by Putin, and that Putin and other government officials have spoken at length about killing traitors no matter where they go, it seems very likely they intended to kill him but failed.

Just making him "really sick" doesn't make much sense, I think. Especially when you consider someone unrelated did die after being exposed.

The GoPro is easy to mount, whether that's in a helmet mount while ziplining in Mexico, on a backpack strap while horse riding, or on a chest mount while hiking through a waterfall. The GoPro is quite waterproof and with the outer housing, can be used for some scuba situations - certainly safe for kayaking and whatnot. The GoPro is also simple to operate and can be operated with gloves on - which is important if you're trying to use it while snowboarding.
