Perhaps you have me confused with someone else? Looking at my history I don’t see anything particularly abusive and certainly not “unsubstantiated”.

Yeah, California and New York will implement this ina flash if they can which will force NN in major isps.

“Data collected by EFF from across the state show that only .08% of vehicle plates captured by police ALPRs are connected to a crime. Lol. What percentage of cars are connected to crime?

A lot of text for your argument which is x isn't secure. Not very compelling. Signed rest requests ensure that auth tokens can not be leaked as each request is individually signed by a private key. Your extreme example btw is hyperbo

Signed REST requests are good too, more secure. And what’s wrong with delegated auth?

Legal way to blackmail. Cool! But, alas, she can be subpoenaed which overrides any gag clause.

“Scaled across Titan’s 18,688 Tesla GPUs, ”. I am sure that’s all Nvidia really cared about, they’d write anything that made their customers look smart.

So wrong in so many different ways. The questions you research / prep for may be needed at some point in your career. Much like programming. You program for all relevant edge cases, as one might be used at some point. People who don’

To imagine that genetics do not play a role in intelligence (or any talent) is horribly naive, otherwise we could teach our dogs to program.

This is true if you have very junior level responsibility, but as soon as you need to take any kind of leadership role others will be looking to you to contribute in a manner that is not ad hoc. Also, you mention research. Research and pre

Preparation is a huuuuuuge part of being successful in the workplace[1]. Simply showing up just doesn’t cut it. Part of interviews aren’t even testing skills, but testing prep. Of course, you want to test for innate genetic talent as well

well,just list the things you do on a weekly basis for a family - making meals - driving kids - laundry - grocery and other shopping - picking up - finances and planning I think all of these are ripe for (more) disruption.

The real problem is traffic. Hi density public transit from airport to hotel makes much more sense. What we need are residentiala and office skyscrapers built along high density electric rail. This has always been the solution. Sadly, peo

It depends if you have kids or not that you are responsible for. We can all make that choice for ourselves, but when you have kids most of us have a moral code to protect them from ‘sudden death’.

Yeah, think of the cam scene in American pie. The gossip that fires through the internet. iPhones are like cctvs per person.

I am surprised this hasn’t been explained in terms of a vulnerability chain. Ie, break it up into parts. As soon as you have an oracle providing cache timing info you have a vulnerability. Basic Bayesian analysis suggests that there is mo

I’ve said many times this is the best way to deal with the large monopolistic companies - group up.

Very impressive. Controlling yourself is way harder and far more rewarding than controlling others.

Sure, they don’t intentionally sabotage lifetime of their devices but they don’t really invest in increasing them either.

Lot of very selfish anti team ideas here. Shipping requires doing grunt work. That’s the person I want to work with and that’s the person I think is valuable.

I thought quality of journal and number of citations (from quality journals) was more important than pubs per year.

Didn’t they drink out of wine skins? Cheaper, more sturdy than glass.. and beer was drunk from wooden tankards, 4 pints in size unearthed, probably 2000 years ago in wales. https://museum.wales/articles/2010-04-01&#x

It’s a lot of hang wringing over nothing. Google, amazon, even Apple and Msft rely on a healthy internet. They represent over 2 trillion market cap. They can easily compete with the telecoms.

The funny thing is that gpl is mostly used by per profit companies creating a two licensing system. Gpl is great to test drive before buying a commercial license, but other than it’s pretty much ignored except maybe in academia.

Is dnn a chainsaw? I dunno. More like a Home Depot multipurpose power tool.

The advantaged of Dnn is that they are easy to understand, very well supported, solve a wide variety of problems, and gpu costs are very rapidly coming down. Plus you can use them to play games!
