Well, at the minute, it vibrates when anyone calls or texts, all Wear is is a little screen showing Android's notification system and replicating the alert structure on your device already (e.g. when I get an email, it sits in the notification bar on my phone, but I chose not to vibrate, and on Wear is opens a notification, but doesn't vibrate. Whereas for a text it vibrates on my phone, and so it vibrates the watch as well. Doesn't have sounds, so the watch doesn't ring). It does cost battery life, hence the discussion surrounding it elsewhere in the post.

So, uh, in what sense are you using "NP" here.
Au contraire, I think that to make good AI, an AI really has to "get it" - i.e. it has to have an accurate, funcional internal representation of the world (i.e. "imagination"). Otherwise, the number of concepts that it would need to memorize to be able to "fake it" would be just too huge; for example, to know that "he went through the door" means that "he's not in the room any more", and any number of such similar, trivial facts.

AFAIK, that's one of the main problems in AI right now. Computer vision is getting really good, but at this point, it's completely useless - sure, the computer is able to recognize a bottle on a table, but doesn't have an internal representation of the 3D world that would tell him that glass bottle can be lifted off the table (i.e. that it's not one object), and that it should be handled carefully (as it can break, as opposed to e.g. a ball).
So basically, you believe in magic.

By the way, that 'soul' thingy, doesn't reside in our brains?

How does the new leader know it went to a majority? The only entity which could confirm that is the old leader.
It also depends what features do you expect from the watch. I have a Pebble. It does everything I want on a "smart" watch, and the battery lasts from 7 to 10 days. Which is obviously worst than a year, but it's good enough that it doesn't become a PITA for me.

To be fair, I only use it on servers; I could imagine having to compile Gnome or KDE is a little more bothersome.

I feel the same about Gentoo, but my approach to desktops and servers is the opposite. If my laptop or desktop breaks during a Gentoo upgrade, it's an interesting learning experience (after much gnashing of teeth and shaking of fist). If a server breaks during an upgrade that's a business impacting outage. So I prefer to run Red Hat or CentOS on servers despite distinct lack of awesome latest packages.

I never bothered with a Gnome or KDE desktop. Compiling XFCE, Firefox and Chromium takes long enough.
The devil will be in the policy:

Also, it sounds like from reading this story, that should someone contest the events in a police report, officers will get to go back, review the video and get to change their story depending on how damaging the video is...

My point was that this dance around "observed behaviour" isn't needed in C11, as per: "(...) on C11 (are there any fully C11-compliant platforms yet?) you can use the memset_s function. (...) [which is] guaranteed (or at least specified) to write the provided buffer and to not be optimized away."

On another note, searching for memset_s and openbsd yielded this hit from 2012:

Real Life Analytics Looks To Revitalize Advertising
REMOTE Senior Ruby Developer Needed!

Hi. We're looking for an awesome Senior Ruby Developer to join our growing team. If you've ever wanted to work for a interesting security startup with great people this is your chance. We're a little different than your average startup so we put together this FAQ.

Q: Ok who are you guys?
A: ThreatSim is comprised of some really smart security hackers who were tired of working for large companies. There are people here from Mitre, HP, Fortify, RSA, Verizon Business, Cybertrust, and others. We wanted to do the small company thing and it's worked well for us.

Q: What would I be working on?
A: You'd be working on our SaaS service, ThreatSim. It lets our customers send simulated phishing campaigns against themselves. When the user clicks on the simulated phishing link they are immediately shown training. It's an unconventional approach to changing user behavior and it works (hint: we have data).

Essentially we get to think like bad guys and help our customers improve their security. It's an interesting space to say the least. If you ever wanted to learn more about security and cutting-edge attacks, this is the place. We simulate evil AND give our customers data that they can use to protect their organization. You will spend a lot of time thinking "if I was a bad guy I'd..." then have to pivot and think "if I was a security engineer I'd...".

Q: Where is this position located?
A: This is a remote position that is open to US residents only located within the US. We understand that not every developer wants to move to SF, NYC, or DC so we let you work wherever you are productive.

Q: What technology to you use?
A: ThreatSim is built entirely within Amazon Web Services. Linux, load balancers, auto-scaling, sidekiq, redis, ansible, git, Splunk, HIDS, two-factor auth, disk encryption, and a lot of cool security stuff that you probably aren't used to seeing in a startup.

Q: What skills and qualities are you looking for in a candidate?
A: Here's a bullet list:

Ruby on Rails 3.0+
Relational and non-relational databases: MySQL, Redis
Background job processors (e.g. Sidekiq)
Javascript frameworks (e.g. jQuery, pure JS)
Client-side and server side MVC
Comfortable with git for version control
Continuous integration
MS Office (hah right, could you imagine?)

If you are interested, send along a resume to jobs@threatsim.com

Thanks for commenting. You are right! We will be adding non-celebrities too. This will be in addition to the current offering. . . a bit of a different angle though. The socks are added as a fun way to accessorize the outfit. Sometimes we add phone cases and wallets for this reason too.

Being a graduate student who is paid just under the living wage for the city I live in, I probably have less money than you. In fact, I probably have less money than 60 percent of the population.

I am not more likely than you to be assaulted, killed, or go hungry. Here is a more extreme example to show how misguided your statement is: a millionaire has less money than a billionaire, but that does not imply the millionaire is more likely to deal with being assaulted or killed or going hungry either.

You should really go reevaluate what you think you know about finance and how money affects life. Go read some papers about how money changes quality of life, and you'll see that above a certain (relatively small) threshold, more money doesn't make much of a difference. There is certainly no "aggressive" punishment for deciding to have a lucrative career in, say, medicine, as opposed to having a more lucrative career in finance.
A weekend is definitely enough time to learn how to install a Gentoo system, and it's a good experience.

Whether you'll really want to keep with it in the long run is another question. The level of control is awesome, but it is high maintenance. Expect it to break in interesting and surprising ways during updates.
Portage supports installing binary packages from a binhost, as well. Most large packages (Firefox, Chromium, LibreOffice, etc.) have precompiled versions that follow the naming convention of $SOURCEPKGNAME-bin.

KDE takes about 30 hours to compile on my core i7-4790k even threading it out to all 8 threads.
No, it indicates neither.

It actually indicates an area that is not explained currently by science and that some people theorise about in a "non-scientific" or anecdotal way. This has been illustrated many times by herbs used by traditional healers (using anecdotal reasoning) which were ignored by science until the technology existed to test the herbs for medicinal purposes.

Traditional forms of human knowledge ("magic") may not be "scientific" but it does not indicate a lack of understanding. The movement of epistemology from magic to science is a spectrum not a series of hard stops. The world is grey, not black and white.
Thanks for taking a look at the site. You're right. Celebrities often drive fashion trends.
Nice. Of course the obvious criticism (to me at least) is that the exacts products are not the same even, though the overall look is, eg David Beckham's shirt or JT's cardigan.

http://famousoutfits.com/dress-like-justin-timberlake/

Comments are a good idea, but I wonder if eventually you could crowdsource finding the exact product, perhaps giving a reward to whoever guessed it right from some bounty pool.

You might even get celebs themselves cooperating - perhaps you could notify them by twitter, and post their replies to the page, or offer some unique hashtag if they want to declare what they were wearing.

Or, more realistically, have fans send tweets out on your behalf to elicit a response from a celeb that you could then record: that can be done automatically. Eventually you could have a celeb claim their page for customization.

It'd be also interesting to allow users to post pictures of themselves trying to look-alike. They could mention if they found the exact brand-copy in their subsequent shopping. Then the underlying celeb (or rather brand) might become interested in working with you.
> I can't reach the top of the screen from every hand position.

Well, I think that is not a self-evident bad thing. As a result of Android and Windows Phone design guidelines, by far the most interactions happen on the bottom half of the screen. I think that as long as you can reach the notification bar, there's a pretty good argument to be made that the additional screen estate is more beneficial.

Furthermore, just because you're used to it on your current phone should not necessarily imply that you need it on your next. That is a line of reasoning I'm also seeing a lot, but that just sounds like people being conservative to me. It's a fine preference to have, but such a slightly different way of using a new phone may not always be a bad thing either.

I'm not arguing that bigger screens are better, but I don't think that there are clear objective constraints to screen size. You could even wonder why people think one-handed usability is important at all.
I don't mind having a "feel" where UI, HUD, crosshairs etc are similar across games. It's the common in-world assets that I don't like.
I think you meant to say NP-hard, not NP.

Many NP problems are easy so saying "out somewhere in NP" isn't saying very much.
I disagree. There are plenty of bad decisions to moan about without having to artificially cripple judges.

I look forward to automated offside calls (and I would really love to modify the offside rule), and video reviews before penalty kicks (which is a really harsh and match-defining punishment, shouldn't be taken so lightly).

I like basketball, and while video reviews do sometimes detract from the flow, I think they do add some excitement (especially when a shot goes off just before the clock goes out).

Assuming you have a strong business-minded attorney and a good relationship with them, ask them in an email. Skip the meeting (expensive). The answer, like most legal items, is complicated, but a good attorney can help you wade through it with a two-line email response. You just need to ask it the right way.

In case it helps, here's the full email last time I had this issue:

> Quick question...should I bother to formally dissolve [company]? We've all moved on to other projects so I'm going to officially add [company] to the deadpool. No more work will be done on it (although we might open source a few components for the greater good), and there's $90 left in the bank account...probably enough to pay for this email :)
I am a big fan of conceptual metaphors. But I don't get this part: "why AIs may never be humanlike".

It's not trying to solve a phonetical problem, its permalink of planets.
I've increased phone size with every upgrade the last 3-4 times. My latest phone is a 5.5", and I might very well go for a 6" next time. The thing is I rarely use my phone for calls, and the 5"-6" range with a full hd display compares sufficiently well to a "public transport friendly" tablet - which would be 7" to at most 8" for me, because it needs to be nice to hold with one hand, and possible to slip into a pocket.

If I do need to make calls when I'm out, I use a headset most of the time, because I'm usually listening to music anyway. If I'm not out I can usually comfortably sit down and the size doesn't matter.

As for being an "advanced user", last office christmas party I logged in to our servers via ssh from my phone to apply a fix to our monitoring system - I like to consider myself an advanced user...
Thanks! Cool idea. . . I like the GitHub "fork" concept!

This is very impressive. I hadn't realized that image classification was so good.

I'm not sure I understand the results though. On the demonstration site, there's a group of images that apparently failed to be classified. But, when I tried it this morning, google's prediction shows a correct classification, for some of them.

I've only had modest successes in tricking other people to implement my own work and ideas, but where I have, it's been a positive:

⚫ Hey, I thought of that.

⚫ Hey, other people thought it was useful and/or a good idea.

⚫ Hey, they did the work (or took over the work) for me.

And often on top of that: "oh, someone's added a new idea / cool feature / process improvement that I hadn't even considered".

Sure, sometimes people goof stuff up. Shit happens. But I've pretty much always got other things that are keeping me occupied.
This is awesome!

However, I'm worried about the performance issues others have stated, particularly when making downloads on older computers out of my house. Time will tell.
Well you asked a question and I answered it honestly :)
Heh, it took me about 2-3 days on a PIII 450 mhz once.
Heh, you solved one problem by creating another.

It works fine if you only have 1 display, then you can run everything display side.

But now lets say you have 3 displays. Now each built in GPU has have the ability to talk to other items on the PCIe bus, not just the controller. This sounds like a blessing. The host PC would only have to upload the window contents once, then each display would send the information to each other. Simple right?

But now we have to deal with hardware latency, and cross vendor standardization. Which are largely problems then bandwidth.

I ran Gentoo for about 5 years. Most people miss the point of it. It was created to create other "distributions." Where I worked, we actually needed that capability, but never found the time to create our own profile, and prune our own portage tree. Missed opportunity! If you need that sort of thing, great, but don't run it on a desktop thinking that it will give you any more "performance" than another distro. That's been debunked handily.
Too many of these and a pattern emergees for that officer
I'm not buying anything smaller than 5.5" again unless I have to. I love the bigger screen too much. I'd rather go to 6" than back down to 5"...

There's a reason the screen size has kept going up: People keep buying the larger screen models.

Interesting. I'm running a mix of i3wm and some Gnome apps on a relatively old Intel P8700 powered laptop and the only compile pain points are browsers and libreoffice (I ended up using the -bin package).
My experience was largely similar, although I suffered along with using lynx to read the documentation in e second virtual console as I was learning about partitions and compiler flags.

And after spending hours watching/waiting for gcc, bash and some of the other core utilities (and of course Linux) to compile my then limited experience also witnessed a panic on first boot :( so I switched to Lunar and had that on my laptop until I replaced it.

I too became lazy, but went for Arch instead of Ubuntu (which I did use before attempting Gentoo).

Might fire-up a VM and give this a whirl...
This statement doesn't make sense to me. A neural network literally can't produce anything besides a continuous function, and the universality theorem says that there is no continuous function they can't (approximately) produce.

So what could you possibly mean when you say neural networks have "more" than they need to do something which characterizes exactly what they can and can't do?

Yes, it refers to a memory location, without implying anything about the semantics of the bits located at that location. You can't dereference or assign to the location because you don't know the type at that location. You can however assign that pointer to a typed pointer variable to actually read or write to that memory location. This is useful when you really care about the bits of memory but you're variable pointing to that memory could just as well be an (int64_t ) as a (char ) and those types are not interchangeable with each other, only with (void ). So library functions that just care about memory locations, not the semantics of the bits there, take (void ).

Some of this may be technically incorrect. This is my own mental model of the C language which is sometimes incomplete.
