Malicious email in the wild is either a link to a phishing page, or a link to a page offering an executable.

Part of the challenge of pursuing this comprehensive type of AI infrastructure is that it requires massive coordination and collaboration. Unfortunately the incentives in both industry and academia make it difficult to even start such a project. As a result we're stuck with incremental work on narrow problems.

I've been on both sides of table (started in industry developing AI solutions and now in academia pursuing phd in AI). When I was on the industry side, where the information and infrastructure was there to build such a system, you had to deal with the bureaucracy and institutional politics.

In academia, the incentives are aligned for individual production of knowledge (publishing). The academic work focuses on small defined end-to-end problems that are amenable to deep learning and machine learning. The types of AI models that emerge are specific models solving specific problems (NLP, vision, play go, etc).

It seems to move towards developing large AI systems we need a model of new collaboration. There are existing models in the world of astrophysics and medical research that we can look to for inspiration. Granted they have they have their own issues of politics but it's interesting that similar scope projects haven't emerged on the AI side yet.

My general advice about learning via piano apps is that it can be reasonably effective for practicing some things, for some types of learners but apps are not (IMHO) sufficient to teach all things keyboard to all types of learners.

I think the ideal approach for many people and scenarios would combine an experienced instructor with solo practice, some app-assisted practice and some video-assisted/written study. How much of each and the sequencing will depend largely on the learner and their objectives.

As is usually the case, "conscious practice" tends to be far better than "rote (mindless) practice". When our kid got into the third year of piano, solo practice sessions became more of a struggle, frequently slipping into mindless repetition that was largely ineffective. That's when we introduced some app-assisted practice sessions. The app approach was helpful because it provided consistent, granular, objective feedback on missed notes, timing, etc. Obviously no app can replicate all the dimensions of an experienced human coach but in the right context app-assisted practice can be a useful component of a blended learning strategy.
>Do people really expect software to work forever after it's reached end of life?

Yes, actually. Office 97 still works on windows 10[1].

>Even with Windows updates? And hardware changes?

But neither of them occurred. The software simply stopped working after a certain timespan has passed. If it broke because a because of a OS update that's understandable, but because an arbitrary date has passed, that's less understandable.

This sort of thing just shouldn't even be a viable threat. The response should be "go ahead and publish it, who cares?"

If you heard tomorrow that there were a bunch of plastic surgery before and after photos online, would you even go look? What is the threat here - that people will search the data for people they know and...make fun of them? Really?

I like go, but i don’t understand your point. Go seems to like passing pointers over channels, which is pretty far from avoiding shared memory. Unless you start writing code that looks like actor based concurrency, with channels used to pass messages acrross actors. But this isn’t what i’d call idiomatic go.

Very few things are purely good or purely bad, which should be a caution against all-or-nothing judgements. For example I think Apple is bad for inching its way towards an ever more restrictive MacOS. But I think Apple is good for its efforts to protect user privacy and give users more control over it. And as a FAANG, it's example puts pressure on other companies to compete on privacy as well. (Though I think we know Google will never go that way, unlike Apple their business model isn't based on hardware or software sales, but on the very private information Apple wants users to have control over)
>>Interesting that people are substituting the hard question (what has been hyped and has lived up to it)

I think it's the way you're reading the answers (and the question). If you look at it as "What was hyped to you and lived up to the hype when you finally experienced it", then the answers make sense and there's no confusion.

Dumb question: would the UK no longer be the UK at that point?
What are you talking about? Why wouldn't an IRB approve of this "research"? Also, IRBs are not the panacea for how research should be done. They're designed to protect the university legally more than to protect participants from harm.

Regarding designing or using sociotechical systems like Twitter, see Brown et al. (https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/2858036.2858313) for good discussion and provocations on why this is the case.

Sadly those mentioned open source products are still light years away from what Lightroom can offer.

It is like comparing Gimp to Photoshop. Yes, they can do some of it, but they can't do it better or even close to that if you are serious at what you do.

I am a developer, I have been Linux user for years and photography is my hobby. I periodically try some Lightroom "alternatives" in hopes of finding something good, but they are still nowhere near of replacing it. And with the limited budget they will probably never be as good.

I know only one great open source software example in the arts field, and that software is Blender. Blender can probably do it because they have been receiving millions in donations from major game development companies in the recent years. Unless something similar happens in the field of photography, I don't think we'll be able to get away from proprietary software soon.
Darktable is anything but "excellent", and has been, in my view, unusable for close to ten years.

It might have not been obvious it's a fraud but it was obvious not to put significant % of your net worth in his fund. It's basic risk management. Maybe I am biased coming from a gambling world where it's the very first lesson you get. Betting more than a few % of your net worth on one horse is just a judgement blunder.
I think I generally disagree, but thanks for a more detailed response, it's an interesting discussion.
> It essentially makes compliance to EU law optional for companies operating in the UK. That's a huge advantage. Choose to trade on EU terms with the single market, or choose to trade on other terms with international targets.

When the UK was in the EU, it was never a requirement for goods sold to non-EU countries to meet EU regulations. On that front, nothing has changed: selling to EU, you need to meet EU laws; selling elsewhere you need to meet theirs.
I think your vitriol is wrong, but there is a kernel of truth.

AI with no debiasing is a mirror. It's pattern recognition. Techniques for achieving fair and equitable AI are frequently quite similar to "playing god" and do come dangerously close to implementing "rejecting your reality and substituting my own" into the data through sophisticated techniques for social justice reasons. This can elevate the impact of an AI developers actions far above what they may have expected.

For instance, I am shocked that the right wing media has not reported more about the "censorship" inherent to some kinds of word vector debiasing techniques proposed in papers after the famous "man is to computer programmer as woman is to homemaker?" paper within NLP. Usually the undesirable associations (programmer is "male" and homemaker is "female") are due to a representation gap either inherit to reality (far fewer female programmers) or due to failure to properly write about and represent female programmers in corpra (Wikipedia editors should write more articles about female programmers).

One of the techniques proposed to prevent this bias is to simply find the specific rows in your dataset that maximizes the undesirable association and remove these rows. In practice, most of these "undesirable" rows (let's say a row is a wikipedia article) will have no inherit bias what-so-ever, and only get their poor scores because the article is about someone where the editors/authors wrote a lot about their relationship with their dad (using male words) before talking about their programming career. It leaves me with a bad taste in my mouth to remove not-sexist articles to mitigate or remove sexist associations.

Maybe the OP could have critiqued this kind of work rather than their original post and it may have been more constructive...

I think you might read the wrong media. It was the UK (with little brother Denmark) that kept the EU firmly on an economically liberal course.

First thing the Commission did after the Brexit notice was to publish a 'European Pillar of Social Rights' and to launch processes for common minimum social standards. Yes they do trade but look at the lineup and commissioners and half of those have social portfolios.

Really relevant point. EU wants deeper integration, the last thing it needs is a second independent nation with a land border to the UK.
My default assumption at this point is the longer you breath air contaminated with aerosols carrying the virus the higher your chance of being infected. But the actual statistics behind this are basically unknown. If there a real threshold effect or is that a statistical artifact. No one knows but there are hints that severity is related to exposure.

Also suspect one large droplet likely can infect you by itself.

"A fresh take on documents" that's limited to Apple devices seems like a problem. People usually make documents to share. I suppose there are embubbled Apple users who don't even know anyone who uses something else and who they'd want to share or collaborate with. But that must be an exception.

It gave me the line about being stuck in 2010. Just an insult machine. It would actually be useful if it gave me songs it thought were more "cool" based on my current lists. Still, I'm getting a perspective by reading other people's amusement with the comments here on HN.
+1 on Primal.

The animation and storytelling are masterful. I really enjoyed the second half of the first season in particular the episodes "Plague of Madness", "Coven of the Damned", and "Slave of the Scorpion".

Uhh, yes. I don’t expect any product I buy to suddenly stop working, unless it is defective or a wear-and-tear item that is expected to wear out. Software has no moving parts and therefore should not wear out, so it should work until I no longer need it.

Imagine if a hammer had a time bomb that destroyed itself after the manufacturer’s arbitrary “end of life” date. That would be totally unacceptable.

It reminds me of Rubi [0], a rule-based symbolic integration system. Unlike many CASs that use a variant of the Risch algorithm, Rubi simply solves the integrals by using a large number (6700+) of rules in its database. Benchmarks (72000+ test cases) show that it's able to get better and cleaner antiderivatives than Mathematica and Maple. All the rules [1] are both human and machine-readable.

The engine can be installed in Mathematica, SymPy and SymJa.

Well obviously, but that is not really an answer.

Perhaps it is not answerable but it is a important question, when guarantees are made, who is making them?

I am not sure it is a important question in that it is not a important guarantee. The software is what it is, it is open and modifiable. But if the guarantee mattered then this would be a crucial question and the answer would describe the organisational structure of the "tokio maintainers and contributors" as a group
I think people buying a “perpetual” licence might not expect it to work forever, but at the same time could rightly expect that it was licenced indefinitely.

If you buy software you expect all the dependencies to be licensed with the same timespan as the product. The issue here is that the dependencies weren’t perpetually licenced, but the software was, which is pretty bullshitty.

What were some of those concepts that ended up being usefu?
I'm the lead developer of Pijul.
The theory is 99% there. Things are still moving a little bit, but it's mostly cleanup at this stage, the maths are solid. The UI is also moving, as users discover "weirdnesses" (which most of the time are places where Pijul's defaults differ from Git's).

There are two things I'm working on at the moment, and when these are done I believe 1.0 will be super close:

- Future-proofing the formats. There is one major thing I'd like to address before calling it 1.0, and that's code refactoring. It isn't supported at the moment, and Pijul is perfectly usable without that, but I'd like to keep the possibility of implementing it in the future open. I believe the current formats allow that, but I still need to be 100% certain.

- Merging two giant histories takes a time linear in the size of the history on the remote repository. Of course this isn't an operation you want to do very often, but it may become problematic for truly gigantic repositories, and I know how to fix that. This is planned to be a separate project at the moment, but it does require some support from the libpijul API.
Yes - but now we can trade with those countries on our terms, not an aggregated decision on how we can trade set by EU legislation. Before we wouldn't need to meet single market standard to trade with those countries, but the overall terms would depend on EU trade deals or standard rules.

This is why leaving the customs union is key to any reasonable Brexit deal.

I'm not even trying to argue that Brexit is good necessarily, but more rationalizing why the deal always had to be what it is. Anything else other than staying in the EU isn't a beneficial option for the UK - unless joining EFTA, or similar.

Maybe. I'm not sure who's really hyping up ancient texts like the Bible these days, or some of the other answers as well.
I completely disagree. The EU remained silent during the Scottish independence referendum in 2014 because they didn't want to be seen to be publicly undermining the UK government, but since relations have soured they've been pretty open to say that Scotland would be welcomed back into the EU and that it already meets the requirements.

Not to say that Scotland rejoining the EU would be a massive moral victory for the EU over England.
I wasn’t ignoring trading, I am simply saying that looking at trade in isolation isn’t the full story. People suggesting that an increase in non EU trade must be equivalent to the decrease in EU trade may be ignoring what the other side is saying.

It’s possible for the increase to exist, it to be less than the loss, and for the UK to be better off. As such some people talking about the likely increase may not be implying it’s a 1:1 replacement for the drop.
I hope one day Krita developers could improve their vector layers. Krita is already great for raster graphics, but the vector layers is not polished at the same level.
