Sit down dude. You think you are standing up for rights, but are making a case for weaker security by trusting, i.e. that MS and Apple won't backdoor you in an instant if they must. You are literally, actually, a shill, especially wit

Shows just how valuable neo-yuppies are to local economies and politics. Go home, you actually make it worse for everybody else. Plus, your vote matters in any other state.

Travel is so valuable to perspective, too. I know some people on the woke spectrum who would be a lot less miserable if they traveled even to other U.S. states, but the up-front cost is a barrier. Share your miles, make the world a better

Forget AI democritization , GPT-3 is AI demoguerization . GPT-3 is singular; it is one model, one dataset, one training. Yet it will be the only one that will exist for quite some time (or by far the most available), and now it will under

I am using motion quite generally, to include the motion of particles, heat, etc. I don't know if the emergent property stuff is proven or discussed much, but I think the field is coming around to it, if for no other reason than they

IMHO, GoL is too simple (as Einstein might have said). The machinery GoL can produce is "curious", but overly complicated. IOW, GoL is not complex enough to produce results that can be reasoned about usefully/meaningfully

Garbage in, garbage out. If you admit dummies, they are not going to become a genius. The bigger issue for all of us is, now we are not supporting the students who could really move the needle. So the needle doesn't move.

You read the papers correctly, bc those are abstract dimensions, neither time nor space nor precise facial features. Adding another element to an array is changing it's arity, as arguments to a function (which nobody confuses as a fun

Those lines are an aspect of the dimensions of the board, not an addition to them. The measure of time does not make it a dimension (we can measure time in the universe too).

It doesn't need access to your photo library either. Imagine giving access to your whole roll!

Mozilla sucks at software. They are prescriptive, and always changing. They practice the worst of open source (give today, take tomorrow, user no choice, auto-updates), and they cannot keep up with enterprise in their own domain.

Y'all are not going to grok this, but time is not a dimension.

It does make me wonder if a binocular affect similar to a binaural affect would induce would do it. The ocular pathways are significant...

I will never understand how parents can be okay with ads that target children. It's like giving their children's minds to a stranger with candy.

This is a wealth privilege, setting an example others cannot follow unless the whole economy is changed. It does nothing to address the externalization of pollution as a norm of the free market, for which all are complicit. It's just

Oracle must have made the most concessions of control to ByteDance. Oracle gets a popular brand, data, and a strong entry into social networks.

Would it be safe to say that modern FPGA, although larger, are not more complex, in terms of the bit stream that programs them? In other words, that a modern chip's bit stream is not more complex, only longer?

Hiring managers in tech need to realize they are working with high level learners. An expert in JavaScript can easily learn React, TypeScript, etc. Somebody who knows the ins and outs of Linux can easily learn Docker and Kubernetes. Hire

Journalism is not as important as journalist want us to think. Reporting is important. Clear, unbaised reporting gives us what we need to be informed. Nobody asks for story driven reporting, that is a fabrication. A journalist is a repor

Bitcoin technology was never decentralized, merely distibuted, despite ideals about how the software could be used. What is decentralized is the currency at the user level. It has taken the power of control away from a central authority.

There is a glaring legal disconnect with popular web services, where they are not responsible for the content you post, yet the content does not really belong to you, for if it did belong to you, the service would have no right to give it u

H1B is screwing generations of US tech workers, and dampening STEM initiatives which is really going to hurt the economy later when we need skilled labor and innovation at another scale. We need to hire and train US. Anyone can learn the sk

There must be a net benefit to using this software, right? Otherwise somebody in charge would make the decision to use something else, right? It’s not like they are forced to use MS excel, right?
