To get ML models into production is a lot of work involving tests, retraining, model iteration/management and model serving (often at the edge where latency is low).

ML-Ops is as deep as data engineering but not as often talked about. The linked article discusses one example.
I didn't know about Serval, Briar nor Bridgefy. I did know about Firechat, and there's also p2pkit [1] but this one is closed source as well.

In using both BSD and Linux based appliances, the Linux based ones tend to have more features (VyOS, etc.) and cover more hardware (OpenWRT, etc.) but aren't as long-term stable and problem free, as well as the BSD ones.

OpenBSD has much more complete and accurate documentation, which is a plus when you're debugging a problem.

I would opine that Linux won because it was familiar but not ideal - see also people trying to shoehorn Windows into embedded systems where a unix variant would be a more ideal pick.

I think the article just has a poorly selected title. The real interesting new research it's presenting has nothing to do with how dinosaurs looked. It's really about a possible discovery in dinosaur physiology: that they produced melanin in more than just their skin, which implies that animals might have uses for it beyond just pigmentation.

Sorry about that! Our official website is indeed www.bridgefy.me, and we should have www.bridgefy.com recovered in a short while.
My initial reaction is that this counts as malicious.

But thinking about it some more, I at least don't mind clothing ads using me as the model. (Assuming there's opt in and all)

It's better than mentally swapping out the skin tone and body type to see if it was really the clothes that looked good or the attractive model.
It's a matter of probability. They are so often involved [1] that they get blamed even when they appear not to be involved. That's especially true when people know that they have incentives for being involved, regardless of whether or not they are actually involved.

Well said petre, that's the perfect answer.
It's more like "share your email and if it turns up in a leak we'll inform you."

Some password managers already do this and I personally think its a nice feature. Though I often generate new emails and passwords for sites on the spot so this feature isn't of much use to me.
My bet on causal reinforcement learning
Ideally there'd be a sleeper service so I could maybe do a little work in the evening, travel overnight, have a relaxed breakfast arriving ready for a full day. To me that's miles ahead of getting up 5 hours early with all the mucking about of getting there, checkin, baggage and what not involved in air travel, and almost as ridiculous on arrival.

Personally I've never had issue working on trains, and the many friends who use trains regularly seem to do work well enough too.

If someone posted a story called "Driving on Water", and it was all about how you could modify your car to get it to drive on a lake... sure, it's interesting... but it would certainly be worth pointing out that boats exist, and that boats are perhaps much easier at doing what you're trying to do, which is transportation on water. Maybe there's some reason the original posters aren't using boats, and they can share that information. We don't know until we start communicating about it.
Firefox monitor doesn't store your password. It simply checks your email address/addresses against known breaches.
I have been using FreeBSD since 1999, a great OS and i love it, at work i am a Linux system administrator.

One of the huge reasons people use FreeBSD is simply licensing. If you dont want to release any source code simply build your custom app on FreeBSD and only include BSD licensed software. Makes being proprietary simple.

Note, this does not mean any companies that do this do not give back to the project, they do in the way of code commits and sometimes donations.
Looks great for basics, but not enough in today's world (introduction to git on day 28th...)

I'd recommend beginners to do this guide in a week - I get that every person has his/her own pace but there's no need to strech it into 30 days.

After that week you should jump straight into one of the leading framework like React or Vue.

SunOS 4 was still BSD-based. You can find the source code for SunOS 4.1.4 on TUHS's code comparison site[1], but for some reason, you can't browse the tree.

Solaris was when Sun made the jump to System V. AFAIK part of that was because Sun had financial difficulties at the time and AT&T offered to help them -- in exchange for Sun to rebase on System V.

I don't know, but I always assumed that a simple optimization would be one that compared your typical driving speed to posted speed limits on open roads. That is, do you usually drive 5 or 10 miles (kilometers) per hour under or over the limit when you have the choice?

TI micros are overpriced anyways. The NXP RTs are way better bang for the buck.
I've been using the Firefox 69 beta since it came out, and with auto-playing audio and video set to blocked, some sites still somehow manage to auto-start muted videos. Is this a bug I should report, or is there some exception that websites are taking advantage of (like starting the video via an event handler like onscroll)?
They are a stepping stone, not intended to directly influence anyone: hashtags appearing en masse on "influential" (due to bulk porn subscribers) but utterly unrelated accounts will add weight to on-topic posts using the same tags elsewhere.

Not much different from the link farms of the early days of SEO which were never meant for human eyes.
Seconded: this is a truly great book, as is William Poundstone's "Fortune's Forumla" which describes Kelly Criterion: perhaps the most influential equation in trading and gambling in the history of either.
Since we use Bluetooth Low Energy and the algorithm works to make broadcasting/forwarding efficient, we've found that running messages for 24 hours consumes around 7-10% battery total on an average device. These numbers may differ depending on the OS, device, usage, etc. but in a nutshell: we don't consider battery consumption to be a problem.
This looks like a tantrum. Sure, given time any web community becomes (at least a bit) toxic.

But the idea is to have more good people than evil trolls, and that's how it works, questions that are good get more upvotes than down, eventually.
Pretty sure it's keyed on your email alone. Not sure where you saw anything about passwords.
I think GP means non-integer scaling
Well it’s quite in fashion these days to call any person you disagree with a “bot.” Even though my Twitter account is very old I’ve been accused of being a “Russian bot” nearly every time I post something that diverges from the political “Standard Model.” I suppose it’s easier to manage life if you think that everyone real agrees with you and everyone who disagrees with you is a Perl script running in Vladivostok.
I use userChrome.css and userContent.css, and I get the nagging feeling that the silent end of that sentence is "...when we eventually replace the code that currently enables user customization with faster, less flexible APIs."

(I'm paranoid and FUDing because I care: there's some UX low hanging fruit before they could get rid of userChrome.css. For instance, you need userChrome.css to autohide the toolbar in full screen mode on macOS — that's not even a customization, it's a missing feature.)
As Far as i'm concerned i know a hacker that actually work. So if that passes for difference between hackers and crackers then i guess so.

Seeing a webpage/story/comment be changed used to unsettle me - I couldn't understand what had happened, since books don't change. Especially subtle wording changes. Why did I remember it differently than it was...? But I don't seem to notice it any more.

There once was kind of nasty piece on Laurene Jobs, with lots of authentic-seeming detail. It's been completely gone for years now. Maybe this comment too will discover where it went.
Why do you consider some data your browser provides as private and some others not? Not saying I disagree, but hardliners could say they don't want what the browser provides in any way as tracked. Saying this app is hypocritical because they support a different notion of privacy is akin to saying your comment is hypocritical because you say you're against being tracked at all, then talk about tracking browsers via web server logs.

I think we need to recognize privacy as a spectrum and applaud self-hosted alternatives to traditional saas services even if they don't conform to your notion of tracking.
I was in a relationship with Mark for about 3years. I was so true to him i had plans to marry him someday….soon. Then I started noticing some foul play. he always tried to satisfy me even when I wanted only little of him. A sign he was
cheating so I decided to take matters in my hand and told my best friend about it. He gave me someone’s contact who changed my whole life for the better. thought it was a joke after when i funded the exploits and told to be in 24 hours, He helped me hack his FB account,his emails and I got to find out he had been cheating with not one but different women since we’ve been together. All Thanks to onlineghosthacker247 get to him on (onlineghosthacker247@gmail.com) you gonna thank me later!!
They only store an email address and let you know if that email address ever appears in a breach. They don't know your password, they're not asking for your password, and they're not interested in your password.

Also, knowing your password wouldn't be enough to identify it within a breach, assuming that the breached website does the bare minimum to store them safely (as in, uses a salt).

How about reading a thing or two before jumping to conclusions?

Virtually they removed it in 68 with setting the flag when any of the files was present.

Unfortunately they also changed the css model, so even with the flag on - userChrome.css has become useless (to me)... I guess 66 will not be seeing an upgrade for the time being.

As for the question - should be less than 1ms (depends on the OS/filesystem obviously but still negligible)
I recall Real3D, a DCC app originating from the Amiga and ported to Windows NT in the 90's.
It allowed plug-ins to be written in RPL (Real Programming Language) a Forth dialect.

I wrote a 5k line RenderMan RIB exporter for this app in RPL.

I remember how hard this seemed when I started but how natural working in a RPN language felt after only a few hours. It was almost as if the stack had become an extension of my brain.

Trivia: Real3D was eventually rewritten from scratch and is now called Realsoft 3D. Afaik it doesn't support RPL/Forth any more.

I would kinda like to see them get bullets in their heads. That's what China does to corporate executives convicted of corruption.

These people make tens or hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation, truly obscene amounts of money compared to the workers they manage. Why should they live risk-free lives when the lives of so many people rest on their decisions in the C-suite office, and their decisions are clearly not made with safety in mind, but rather profit?

Yes, it’s probably a bug you should report.
I see a lot of concern regarding fake pornographic videos. And I get it. But on the other hand, people could release videos they do not want to appear in with a credible alternative to blurring faces (though I guess you could still fingerprint facial expressions).

If this gets mainstream enough, "revenge porn" would also lose a lot of its current value, being easily dismissible as "fake". (And so would genuine photographical evidence...)

Journalists could use it to hide their sources from the public. If this gets reaaly good, it would become a nice alternative to motion capture for cinematography (pose estimation, including facial expressions). Then swap in the 3D model, or concept art of the person you want to appear on screen. Significantly reduce the costs for makeup, and enable more in post-prod. That was probably already available for big teams with big budgets, but this makes it more mainstream.

IME Waze is actually dangerous because it doesn't mind sending you on crazy maneuvers like making uncontrolled left turns across 8 lane roads only to immediately merge across three lanes and hang another turn. At times it saves a couple minutes, other times it backfires spectacularly, and at all times it disdains safety and simplicity. For me, it's much higher stress.
Great news. Both companies are really innovative and breaking new grounds in chess training. There is a lot other disciplines could learn from them.
The only place he's going to be able to get that size of bet on is on the exchanges, and even then it's going to be a struggle for many games. I'm guessing he's sticking to EPL games or Champions League, which means he has to be super, super sharp.

He'd actually make more money by betting less and looking to the smaller markets, I expect because the edge is likely multiples of 1% there. Strange that he hasn't.

I've gone from i3 -> sway -> i3. Maybe it has gotten better since I last used it; but generally I disliked it.

There are 3 distinct issues I've had (one of which I believe was a Wayland-related problem).

(1) I dislike how you can resize a window horizontal & vertical at the same time. Grab a corner, and adjust. I distinctly think that this is a feature and not a bug, I just don't like it. I vastly prefer i3's method of 'Adjust vertical' OR 'Adjust Horizontal' depending on where your mouse is.

(2) Window-title bar. The size of the font/title bar dynamically changing. Lets say I have firefox open with 3 xterm windows in a even 2x2 matrix. I might have 10 Tabs in Firefox open. As I cycle through the firefox tabs the height of the title-bar changes to reflect the website name. With some sites the font size and/or style changes (from default) too. This causes the titlebar size to change by 1-2 pixels. That causes a screen refresh/redraw and my 2x2 window matrix is no longer 'aligned'. The lack of alignment doesn't bother me, but the 'flicker' it causes does.

(3) Wayland specific: screenshots. I need to be able to take screenshots for parts of my job. I've worked around most of these issues (FireFox has a screenshot tool built-in,etc..) but once in a while I'll need to grab an xterm or something else. [ok this has just devolved into a rant.]

I only have one 4k screen, and had some issues with scaling, but I'd be willing to take another stab at Sway.

Looks very promising. Might I also suggest a few other useful metrics:

Bounce Rate: The percentage of visitors to a particular website who navigate away from the site after viewing only one page.

Aside form that one it would be useful to track Page Views per Session, PVs per Page Type (homepage versus article page), and even Page Depth (per Page Type)

Just a thought. Still really nice.

I'm always interested in these. Would love to get off Google Analytics. Alas, they always seem to forget to offer event based interaction tracking (e.g., button clicks). Most of our core metrics are tied to events of this sort, and rolling our own separate event log doesn't satisfy our needs either.
What happens when you start to accumulate over 5 million+ records (as an arbitrary large number)? Or a couple gigs of stats data?

It utilises K-anonymity, making it difficult if not impossible for this to become a massive data leak.

The email gets hashed on your device, and the start of that hash is sent off to the server. The server returns a list of all the hashes that might match. The client then checks that list for complete matches.
A wee bit offtopic, but if we look at the VW/dieselgate, and the aftermath of it all, and the class-actions, returns, refunds, etc, and hyundai/kia lies about gas milage and people getting refunds for gas...

...when is something like this going to happen to intel?

We've bought CPUs with excpectations of promised performance (like people did with emission expectations and gas milage expectations), they messed up, and we get lower speed, and now no hyperthreading and still no refunds? If i bought a 60" TV and the picture was only 50" with a black border around, i'd return it immediately... why isn't there some action regarding CPUs?
I'm always surprised when people blame L.A. traffic on Waze rather than a lack of transportation infrastructure in the city. After all, maps existed before Waze and people could have used these shortcuts the entire time.

That plant definately shouldn't be closed. The Bay Area people, who keep on advocating nuclear should have skin in the game, a few plants among themselves.

Ideally a couple of new nuclear plants would be build close to San Francisco, YIMBY style.
He also said: if you are running a system and you don't trust your users, you should definitively disable Hyperthreading.

Hence I believe hyperthreading is an option disabled for sane defaults.
This isn't any sort of wild speculation though. It is a hard mathematical fact that pension funds will be more sensitive to a stock market decline now than they were previously. The math says we'd need a small miracle to NOT have to deal with this problem, although it probably won't be as painful as the emotive language in the title makes it sound.
No hard feelings! No one has been more surprised than me by the response I’ve gotten - I can see why you might be suspicious. I will make an effort to post from other sources more frequently moving forward.
It's hilarious how one can distinguish systemd fans and haters by how they write either "systemd" (pro) or "SystemD" (against).

50% in bonds during a time of historically low interest rates is risky as fuck. If those bonds are negatively yielding, then it's just pure corruption. If rates go up, the current value of your bonds drops like a brick. Somehow negative yielding bonds are seen as less risky than holding on to just cash.
