I'm more curious - as someone who works in Cloud Support - what kind of "Experts" we are talking about here. The Google product space is massive.

A Job's Guarantee is a real movement, and a reasonable idea for this reason. Not having a job puts you in a lower social caste - might as well have them doing SOMETHING. Even if it's not especially productive, the small positive a

When you realize that legitimately becoming rich is such a long shot no matter how great you do, the idea of cheating becomes alluring. Helps if you keep in mind that Jeff Bezos could accidentally tip you enough money to live the rest of yo

Well, nothing ever left Twitter's servers. The logs themselves would probably be uninteresting to outside parties and inaccessible.

Well, Hash tables are much more complicated. I think the closest analog is going to be a jump table, just with fancy math. I feel like the hardest part of Assembly is all of the hex math required...

> but I'd rather just get my job done than be an emotional sop for my coworkers, or worse have other people be an emotional sop for me I don't think you have to be in THAT kind of relationship with coworkers.

When the choice is to commit crimes or live in hellish poverty, the choice becomes easier. Going to prison just means you get free food and board for a while. Sure, it's awful. But your only shot getting a better life is crime....

Thanks for this, I'll have to take a look at FastText. I've been using word2vec before turning it into a matrix and running it through a CNN. I based it off of Yoon Kim's[0] work. I haven't had much luck though on my 92-

I'm not sure how these are a mystery. Wages aren't going up because there is nothing forcing them to go up. The upper class just takes their rents and insists paying more wages would tank the economy. Participation is going down b

If it wasn't an automated system, they would have the cost of someone going through everything. Do you really doubt that this is constantly happening and people are paying? Just look at the people who get DMCA'd for content they m

I guess it depends on what you mean by "become a developer". I think a lot of the increased difficulty is the skill of developers. At one point, knowing how to edit HTML would get you an interview. Now, I feel like I might need a

Should be illegal. I'm sure countless people pay these kinds of fines, just assuming that the company threatening to sue them is legitimate. What's to stop me from just making a cool company name and sending cease and desist lette

PACs still cannot accept foreign money, though obviously it is easy to launder. NY real estate companies are a popular money laundering method for this kind of stuff. https://www.opensecrets.org/pacs/foreign.php

What? So far everything that has come out has disproved all of the claims in the memo, including the memo itself! And of course your comment won't get anywhere, you just made up a bunch of nonsense. For example, I read the text message

Re: 1) As far as the Clinton/DNC leaks go, there was actually nothing damaging in them. Yet somehow it got spun up into a giant conspiracy that they had evidence didn't exist, thanks to the leak!

Not like default thermostats are free either, and a lot of them have mind-blowingly bad UX. "Just hold down these 4 buttons at once while hitting these two up arrows to adjust the time!"

I've been using VS Code and WLS to execute the Ubuntu version of Rust from the bash console in VS Code. I'm not sure if this is a good method or not... but it feels very natural.

Not OP, but I presume the regulations would be important too. Part of being FDIC backed is maintaining a certain amount of currency that is VERIFIED. Issue here is that there is no one giving confidence that Bitfenix has any currency at all

Is it really replacing better products? If those products were better, I'd be interested in using them. Instead, Google gets me the same results, quicker, 99% of the time.

What you're describing is just a classifier, and you can certainly train something to do this. However, I'm quite skeptical it would work well. I suppose if you were Google and had all their data, perhaps. Putting different data t

To me, this conversation represents the two classes. One guy is living life probably pulling in upwards of $150,000 a year (or living in a lower cost of living place with six figures income). Simply budgeting well will cover all these thing

Against local companies (like for in Seattle), it also creates an issue of competition for employment. In Seattle, every job I'm applying to is also being applied to by ex-Microsoft and ex-Amazon employees. It's a much harder comp
