AND is vector entry-wise multiplication (hadamard product) with boolean entries, not just multiplication in base 2. Multiplication between numbers is not affected by base - base just defines how the number is written down.

It's not an argument for justifying its value, it's an argument for dismissing devaluation simply based on the hard fork. Network size advantages could end up being temporary, so the remainder of your argument is based on the prem

So your problem is more with the publication of government corruption and bribery than with government corruption and bribery itself?

It has some major issues unfortunately, including massive input lag and frequent latency spikes. This makes most deaths that occur feel very random, rather than the result of skilled play. These issues were around months ago, so I'm no

The Shockley-Queisser limit only applies to single-layer cells under unconcentrated light. Different cell designs have surpassed it by significant amounts in practice already.

I've been using nginx for reverse proxying mostly, but what's the purpose of using something like gunicorn or uwsgi over using just bare Flask? I'm not very familiar with best practices in the area. Is the goal to filter requ

Some people do their work. Some people are their work. For the latter group it's hard to deny an opportunity to be better and to do more.

So your opinion of an unrelated argument was driven by the association of this author's separate work which contains an idea that's associated with an ideology you oppose? That's like an (ad hominem)^3. On the face it doesn&#

If all rents rise jointly that primarily indicates that housing is not competing on price, so remedying that anti-competitive environment is a separate and more important issue IMO.

Living near Davis/Porter/Harvard/Central is pretty damn awesome, to be fair. I wouldn't live downtown even if it was cheaper.

I'm not even sure if these examples are that effective. What makes them effective? If the measure of success is whether or not one actually reads the copy, then for me the best approach is to right it like a personal message. In that c

It seems pretty clear that it's not a winner-take-all market. There's, what, 3+ competitors out now that are competing on price and service, and furthermore the drivers can switch between them more easily than any other prior form

Maybe AR optimized for productivity would be a useful innovation in the space. Higher resolutions (with possibly lower fields of view if necessary) and maintained visibility of keyboard/mouse should be possible with slight modification

In my bedroom I use knockoff RGBW LED lightbulbs (I found some on amazon for $30 that work with a semi-sketchy app called Magic Home). You can set timers for different colors on the app, so in the morning they go bright blue and before bed

Fun to see state of the art algorithms juxtaposed with 90's internet aesthetic (auto playing audio ;)). Hopefully lightfield cameras / camera arrays will become more common in the near future.

Thank you, very good points! If you have the time to suggest some references I'd greatly appreciate it :)

Arguably since little harm was done the net outcome should be positive, as it draws further attention to the security weaknesses in modern infrastructure. Personally, whether or not I would call it "hacktivism" would be dependent

Are there theoretical reasons people use genetic algorithms for problems like this? It seems like you lose any local knowledge that something like annealing or stochastic gradient descent type algorithms use, but it's not clear to me t

I'm also willing to give the benefit of the doubt in that given how sophisticated processors have become they realized that for important use cases they can improve performance pretty significantly with primarily microcode tweaks and s

I'd also note that for the case of typical classification that there's an additional concept of "intrinsic boundary dimensionality" that should be low due to the presence of invariants like scale, rotation and translatio

Generally speaking we have a handle on problems where you have lots of labeled data of the classes you want to identify (lots generally being quantified roughly by calculating N/(e^D) where N is number of entries and D is is the intrin

They explain that not all of the images they want are faces in this case, so you'd have to train your own on "interesting regions" (though there is some work in that area). Part of the challenge in that case is generating all

Seems like you could distinguish between "recording" and "listening" in that case. Then "recording" is only initiated upon the activation of a trigger which confirms two-party consent. Though I wouldn't be

How many microphones do cell phones typically have? I guess I assumed one, though background noise cancelling would certainly be improved by having more. For this kind of positioning it seems the minimum needed would be 3 - and the Android

Wow is that ever a click-baity title for an article primarily about difference in perspectives between classes.

If younger workers live there then there's less demand for apartments, which should reduce costs for families too. Not that I'd want to live there, but older workers might still stand to benefit.

There's also a gene that determines if you're a fast or slow metabolizer, I think it affects half life by around a factor of two. 23AndMe checks the associated SNP.

It would still be interesting if it holds for all primes rather than just the first ones, as it imposes fundamental structure on the distribution of primes. The base 3 calculation is simply the form that structure takes.
