Fortunately, the internet is large and adds a huge number of new domains daily such that whitelisting is so disruptive to everyday browsing it's rather difficult (e.g. Amazon cloud front CDN makes new domains with one click and you cou

For insertions and lookup it is probably hard to find a situation (for large n hashes are asymptotically superior). Trees provide some other nice properties such as maintaining an ordering (so it's fast to get the smallest argument or

Fixed. I'd like to say it was a subtle implication that it contains wisdom from the future ... but actually it was just me being boneheaded.

I only benchmarked and considered the single-threaded case. Multithreading is a whole new can of worms.

Deep learning just refers to the idea of a many layered neural network. These can be used for unsupervised (unlabeled) learning and supervised learning (labelled). Many of the recent headline results for deep learning have been supervised s

I don't thin the issue is Uber recruiting drivers. The issue is DOSing their competitor to do so.

There is some academic interest in ability to use bitcoins scripting language to build "smart contracts." In practice, escrow isn't necessarily needed. In a typical consumer transaction the merchant is more trustworthy than t

The NSA lost all credibility for their claim not to be stealing for commercial advantage when they were caught spying on Brazil's Petrobras (government owned oil company). It is simply not credible to claim this spying was for the prev

This is a real concern. I held the same view for awhile. In the end, however, I decide the small risk was outweighed by the importance of the issue. The more people that voice their opinions, the more impossible it becomes to punish that gr

I find it amazing the US officials thought it a good idea to drop small (trainer) explosives on a nuclear armed USSR sub during one of the tensest standoffs of the Cold War. Is it only in retrospect that this seems poorly thought through?

I agree that it is important to reform the system, not just scapegoating. However, I think you minimize the importance of holding individuals accountable and the effect that has on the system. For example, suppose Clapper is imprisoned for

I started using it after the recent prism fiasco (taught my wife how to use it). It's ok, adds a few extra clicks to each email. The main problem is I haven't found a good solution for reading email on my iPhone.

The video includes a court room clip of a police officer stating that force was used. Mr Dotcom also laid complaints with the police that excessive and unnecessary force was used.

It's a good start for a response, especially since it has the CEO's imprimatur on it. However with all the shady definitions the NSA is using (e.g I can imagine some weasel claiming user data is only the content not the metadata)

I think that depends a lot on the project. Projects that heavily use github tend to prefer a github pull request. It makes it easy to comment on the diff and integrates with Travis CI (integration tool) and other tools. It is easy to make m

You seem to agree that Kierra's prosecution is grossly out-of-line but terribly worried that we might forget that she maybe, should have got a slap on the wrist. In think its fairly understandable that if someone gets expelled and charged w
