Historia magistra vitae. And over and over again, this is proven (Snowden (gov), Facebook (corporation), Google (corporation), just a simple example). Or to say it differently, "where money talks bullshit walks". Once you have a company on stock exchange, you get a huge drive to make stockholders happy. Regardless what your initial goals were, this single fact will make the company behave in worse possible way to earn capital for shareholders (and management bonuses) as much profit as possible.
The wire is art. I don’t have enough superlatives for it. I’m only sad that something so good and timeless will portray black people so poorly. I don’t mean the art portraying them poorly, I mean their literal state of being.
I think there's a huge difference between "statements are being cherry picked" and Bosworth, a major confidant to Zuckerberg, stating that "[I]nterest precision in the US is only 41%—that means that more than half the time we’re showing ads to someone other than the advertisers’ intended audience". I appreciate that you're pointing out the movement du jour against Facebook, but here it looks cut and dry to me.
Yeah, but the Eragon stories were just one boy's quest to minmax himself.

Doesn't look much like a drone, more like a JetPack Aviation kit shown here.

https://youtu.be/y9B7WdlRafc?t=128

They quote endurance as 10 min and I presume it could go longer with an extra gas tank https://jetpackaviation.com/jetpacks/

Fuel seems to be about 5 gal kerosene for 8 min flight.

JetPack Aviation are located about 35 miles from the sighting so it seems a reasonable bet that it's one of their bits of kit.
In addition:

- sites don't make use of link options (news sites not linking sources etc.)

- more walled gardens

- apps replacing websites
Drones need a GPS module that also reports prohibited airspace. Drones could use that to shut down if someone tried to fly them into prohibited airspace.

Intel Capital invests in tons of exciting startups. I wouldn’t take that investment as a sign of corporate direction but more of a good, if speculative, investment.

It looks like the total capital raised by SiFive is under $200 million, which makes even a sizable investment by intel to be peanuts to them.
> The expectation is for people to be able to exit the building or at least get to a lower floor, because that’s the usual case.

That's the expectation in America surely, but is it in the UK? In America people are told to get the fuck out of buildings as fast as they can when the fire alarm goes off, but in the UK people are told to stay inside high rise buildings, apparently because they have fewer and narrower staircases. Highrise buildings in the UK are evidently not designed to be escapable. I think that should be the real scandal. The cladding is bad and effects hundreds of buildings, but how many UK highrise buildings have inadaquate stairways? Tens of thousands? More? The reason this isn't part of the scandal is probably because the scope of the problem is too enormous.

I encourage you to look up the timeline of events inside Grenfell; if evacuation began when the fire was called in, there would have been ample time for complete evacuation. 14 minutes elapsed between the initial call and fire spreading out the window of the origin flat. People were only reported trapped by smoke ~40 minutes after the fire was called in. These people were killed by the UK's policy of staying put inside buildings on fire.

Anyway, I've seen some videos of people falling a fraction of 15 meters onto pavement and dying. It seems depraved to expect somebody even on the third floor to jump onto pavement.

I have been wondering if it would be possible to collect examples of bias, the same way we collect other datasets, and teach NNs to de-bias themselves. The reason for why this is hard to decide is that bias is kind of the opposite of relevant information. The data would be patterns to avoid rather than follow.

Assembling a database for the purpose of de-biasing might also prove unfeasible because of inductive bias.

Electric toothbrushes. I always saw ads for them but they were expensive and I thought, how much better can they be? Finally listened to my dentist’s recommendation to buy one and my teeth have so much less plaque now to where I barely notice a difference after getting my teeth cleaned and the dentist takes much less time to do it.
To clarify, this is exactly what I found surprising: that any unintentional bias that exists, in those ordinary cases, cancels out almost (but not quite?) perfectly.
It still exists but now you can blur the background. I have that with Windows Terminal and WSL and it looks pretty good.
The game makes you think that the goal is to launch a rocket with a satellite aboard. And when you do, you get the “Congratulations!” message. But you also get a counter in the UI, showing how many rockets you’ve launched (Just 001?). And you get 1000 white science, which up until this point had never been seen in the game...

...and after a few minutes, a new goal comes to mind: Launch one rocket every minute. And that’s when the deep game begins. You’ll need massive power production and manufacturing infrastructure, you’ll start using the online calculators to figure out ratios of this to that, and when you get to 1 rocket per minute, you’ll want to see if you can design a system that does that while running completely untouched for 24 hours.
I agree.

I'm pretty sure the word "class" here comes from the repr for types, in Objects/typeobject.c :

static PyObject *
type_repr(PyTypeObject *type)
{
...
if (mod != NULL && !_PyUnicode_EqualToASCIIId(mod, &PyId_builtins))
rtn = PyUnicode_FromFormat("<class '%U.%U'>", mod, name);
else
rtn = PyUnicode_FromFormat("<class '%s'>", type->tp_name);
...

which is used later on when defining the "type" type:

PyTypeObject PyType_Type = {
PyVarObject_HEAD_INIT(&PyType_Type, 0)
"type", /* tp_name */
...
(reprfunc)type_repr, /* tp_repr */

That is, Python 3 has no actual "class" type, so it's not correct to say that '"type" is an instance of "class."'

(I could be wrong - I'm no expert at the Python internals.)

In the US the iPhone has 50% of the general market [0]. Of the youth market it's 90% [1] so the general market share will just keep rising.

With just 50% of the market though, Apple has enough power to sway the entire industry.

You simply cannot have a successful app business in the US without being on the iPhone.

There's probably some of the former. Many fossilizing environments are more dangerous, and sometimes in surprising ways that more cautious--or experienced--individuals would avoid or approach more carefully. Tar pits, caves and crevasses, river banks, wetlands.
This is unhelpful reductionism. Like science, it's an ongoing project to minimize harm in a very real way. No one is pretending that we are done or that forcing ideas o people is a good idea. The point is just to systematically think about the consequences of our actions. Ethics provide tools for this.
As someone who runs facebook ads for ecomm, repeated targeting are a core part of making facebook ads profitable.

You'll almost never make money by running a simple, one-step ad with a link to your website.

What we do is to target a group of people with a simple ad, then people who engage with or leave impressions on that ad will be run into a second ad, and so on and so forth until you finally funnel them into a conversion ad (for example, a discount) to try to convert those "warmed up" leads. All the campaigns leading up to the conversion ad aren't profitable, then you make all your money on the conversion ad.

So advertisers actually intentionally target you repeatedly, most people it just annoys but for the subset of people that are actually interested in your product, it can work. Familiarity and repeated visibility seems to lead to a sort of trust for certain people.
E-Commerce absolutely lived up to the hype.
My intention was to say:

It's ok for companies to prepare their employees for phishing, except that (a) they are not allowed to inflict emotional harm on their employees, and (b) the email should include the correct examples of phishing markers.

A good example would be an email coming from a realistic-looking but fake external email; or an email with faked internal-looking headers that are highlighted by the company's email system.

A bad example would be an email coming from the company CEO's real email address, claiming that the employee was promoted, with no warnings from the email system that the headers are faked. That would not teach a useful lesson, and it would inflict some emotional damage on your employees.

Note: the lesson is not useful since, if the attackers have managed to corrupt the email system well enough to send emails from internal addresses without getting flagged, they will most likely have no need to phish for further access.
What do you mean by Euclidean representation?
I think I would have liked this. I had a 6th grade teacher who read aloud to us daily, something more age appropriate, though, and this experience a remarkably large, and fond component of my recollection of those days. Unfortunately I was promoted right into an "innovative" program of "individualized learning" which ultimately crashed and burned in about 6 years, but consumed all of my middle school years. I didn't really encounter anything comparable again until high school

I feel exactly the same way, but I guess people really don't want to learn super basic SQL? A solid autocompletion with automatic inventory of tables, foreign keys and indexes makes it easy enough I think.
But I never succesfully converted a business person. Either they were ok to use SQL before, or they will keep wanting to click on buttons.
One option is to use X-plore, a seriously well featured file manager app for Android. If both devices are on the same wi-fi network, which I pretty much always am when I need to do this, in a couple of taps you can use its "WiFi file sharing" mode which lets any device with a browser address a file manager, view and download files.

From the paper ( https://www.usenix.org/system/files/conference/osdi16/osdi16... ) :

"Users exchange messages via a Pung client application
that deposits the messages into mailboxes in the Pung
cluster. These mailboxes are addressed by a label that is
known to both the sender and the recipient.

The Pung cluster acts as a point of synchronization for clients and dictates when a new round starts. During each round, client applications issue exactly one send and one retrieve. [...] This ensures that clients issue requests at a constant rate. In Section 4 we relax this model and let clients issue multiple send and retrieve requests per round, enabling several applications and achieving lower (amortized) costs.

The Pung cluster is effectively a key-value store that treats mailbox labels as keys, and (encrypted) messages as values. This means that users’ communication depends on their ability to agree on a label under which to store and retrieve messages. This label should be unique (to avoid multiple pairs of users overwriting each other’s messages), and it must also be independent of the users communicating (otherwise an adversary could link a label to a conversation).

[...]

Mailbox systems: Finally, there are a number of systems that employ an architecture and techniques similar to Pung’s (clients retrieve messages from per-round mailboxes kept at third-party servers). The key differences between these works and Pung is their reliance on at least one correct server, and the mechanisms that follow from that assumption."

IMO it's because researchers like it, because you can slap together some super sloppy hacky mess prototype and it will usually work. More germain languages stop you from from generating pure chaos.

I don’t think Garmin offers enough fitness features to justify having two different watches.

The Apple Watch is much more versatile and general purpose. Having access to Siri on my wrist has been pretty helpful, paired with AirPods and I can navigate most of life without my phone.

We’re quite habituated to charging our phones every night. Doing the same with your watch (especially if you purchase a stand for it), is a very low friction habit to follow.
If a hacker hacked the CEO's email address, and then used that address to email their secretary asking for information, and the secretary responded.... that is not a security failure on the secretary's part. That's the CEO's security issue, and the company's security issue. Therefore, it's a useless pen test, unless the purpose is to tell employees no emails from anyone can be trusted.

A phishing email can come from the inside. But seeing whether employees will respond to a valid internal email is not a test of employee security. And in this case, it was as heartless as it was useless.
Can confirm. Even the getting the ISO27001 certification is mostly about checking boxes. In many cases an ISO27001 item can be satisfied by picking one of several ways that standard gives to claim it's not relevant.

I'd agree with that. I first played it on an emulator to see what the fuss was about... for long enough to beat it, the DLC, and all the quests. I kept telling myself I'd buy it and a Switch if only there were a way to transfer my save.

Then I got a Switch for Christmas last year (I didn't ask for one, they just sprung it on me), and proceeded to buy and play through the game in its entirety again.

Interesting that people are substituting the hard question (what has been hyped and has lived up to it) with the easier question (what is good and has stood the test of time) and answering that instead, a form of attribute substitution bias [0].

So it doesn't "teach" you. Like I didn't even know it was teaching me to "read music".

For me, it was just "hitting a few symbols". Suddenly in 2 weeks, I was reading music. It uses exactly the same tactics as any videogame lets you figure out game mechanics.

Suddenly, you're playing another state of the game...and oh hey it's THAT song.

This is hard to conceptualize for someone who can already play. But you have to understand that in October, I had no clue I would be reading music in December.

I agree wholeheartedly. The Apple Watch got me running 3 miles a day for the last six months or so. I’m wholly invested in closing the rings and I up the the difficulty every month or so. The biggest revelation was my resting heart rate was somewhere between 70-90 and that scared me. Doing the daily runs has reduced that to 65 so I really feel like I’m making progress.

This is ludicrously premature, and frankly irresponsible, reporting. They have found this variant in two (2) patients. One from August, one from October. There is no indication that anything special is going on here.

And the problem is that when this kind of stuff gets widely reported, it means people start discounting the cases that actually have some solid evidence about the variant being meaningful (e.g. B.1.1.7),

In spite of the years of careful optimization, aggressive multithreading and 2d sprite-based graphics, Factorio still needs a pretty good computer to keep up 60 UPS (simulation updates per second) when you have a truly gigantic factory.

I have to imagine that if you tried to take a Factorio mega-factory (like a 1 rocket per minute factory) and load up the equivalent in Satisfactory, with its 3d graphics and off-the-shelf rigid body dynamics, it would crash to desktop immediately.

Don’t get me wrong, Satisfactory looks like a fun game! But nothing can match Factorio’s depth.
