People need to rediscover A Plan for Spam. Bayesian classifiers solve this. Just classify these chumps and forget about it.

Recently I implemented syndication of my microblog to multiple platforms ("POSSE"). I thought this example might be useful for other people wanting to do the same thing. Hope it's helpful!

It's probably important that some humans verify these proofs "by hand".

The most Hacker News thing ever is top comments haggling over the order of the list.

The way back always seems shorter that the way there. That's because you've already seen everything on the way there. Neuroscience says novelty, plus attention, plus later retrieval are what slow down subjective perception of time

Thank you for this reminder. This is probably only a short few years away for me.

Most democracy measurement projects and indices have shown a decline in democratic performance for the US over the past decade. EIU reclassified the country from "full democracy" to "flawed democracy" in 2016. V-Dem went

The prisoner did not really "escape" because: - They really wanted to leave. - We made prison difficult and annoying. - We didn't build a perfect prison.

It doesn't matter what the hash is if it is inherently cheaper for a bot farm to compute the hashes than it is for a human to do it on their device. The human pays a greater cost in annoyance, wasted time, battery, and that means the P

Yep, all security is about making attack more expensive than defense. If they have a farm of other people's devices, as alleged in the article, then it costs them less to calculate PoW than it costs ordinary users. Ordinary users have

No, companies can do whatever they want. They shouldn't be forced to support all models. I'm suggesting you shouldn't let a company dictate which models you use. Putting yourself in a position where they can is detrimental, b

The reason it makes sense is because different models are better at different things. Allowing yourself to be locked in to a particular model by these companies is a bad idea and will lead to worse outcomes for yourself and the market as a

Why would you possibly allow companies to push you? You are the customer and you should control which models you use.

Allowing the company or harness to dictate which models you use is crazy.
