This has been true for years, Intel CPU's can't efficiently perform math operations when hyperthreading is involved. Generally there is only a single shared FPU/AVX/SSE unit doing the math over two hyperthreads. Since th

Depends on the cameras, but I would imagine Facebook and Google's tech + data to be able to positively identify 99% or more of the people. Especially with multiple shots per person. Accuracy might be as high as 99.9% if you have dron

I know of several hackers that have gone through YC have autoimmune conditions, and I would say there is a larger population of people that have autoimmune conditions then our parents generation. I myself have ankylosing spondylitis, and l

Regarding 1, there are systems @ Facebook and inside Google that can do this reasonably well and I know the technology intimately. I would consider this a nearly solved problem, I give it 1 to 2 years at most to be more generally available

There is absolutely no reason to store anything for 100,000 years. If we were sane and reprocessed our fuel (like France), something like 400-500 years would put us below standard ambient radiation levels. Still a long time, but no we don

Justin, I love the concept of Whale, but many of us don't have iOs phones. Could you run a more traditional AMA at some point?When will there be a web player or an Android app for Whale? I feel that many people in the early user base

I use a tiny bit of python, a little more LUA, and a TON of C++ in the machine learning work I do. Things like opencv, fbthrift, folly, boost, fblualib, and thpp make writing this sort of code in C++ very time efficient and if you know wha

I'm not saying its easy, I'm saying a developer using the tools and processes available at a large internet corporation building something small need not be insecure. Basically until we look at the code and the security processes

I think you should also mention work queues and producer / consumer thread pools. These are very powerful concepts you don't mention here, and they are often the first tool I use. You very often don't need anything else.

I wouldn't say no distributed object storage system is particularly tuned for that. Facebook's haystack and systems patterned after it can work very well for tiny files.

Doing the dev is the only way, I would recommend though reading the Hinton dropout paper and trying to implement a non full featured Neural Network framework to implement those ideas. Then pick papers to implement in your toy framework. O

They use a system called haystack for binary large object storage. They very much don't use mysql for those.
