This article leans too much on the current state of the art to extrapolate towards possible futures, and it shouldn't. AI is dangerous, sure, but the examples we're getting here are a DOTA2 team that lost to humans in a…
I bet the cat soon learns that sitting in front of the door magically summons a human to let it out.
How many companies would this work at? Seems like more than a few might take exception to a potential employee trying to circumvent their normal hiring pipeline.
Magic: the Gathering is also Turing complete. https://www.toothycat.net/~hologram/Turing/
Seconded.
Teixobactin, I assume? Their new method of parallel testing promising proto-antibiotics is really neat, but given the ratio of successes to failures, I wouldn't hold out much hope for a second golden age.
> The law of gravity is one example, since nobody knows where gravity actually comes from. Please stop this. While I agree with your overall point, we know what causes gravity (the uneven curvature of space due to the…
I'm also in the "everything is kind of okay in my workflow" boat. One of the major problems I hear about and encounter frequently is that biotech is a painful industry. Creating and selling new drugs takes decades and…
Not so. First off, we're speaking specifically about Google, which might generalize to the extent of 'high performance' software jobs. Google hiring is selective enough that they can take candidates with exactly the…
Python has the libraries you're looking for: numpy, scikit-learn, Keras, TensorFlow, etc. But because everyone else is going to tell you to use Python, I'll say that R and MATLAB/Octave are both acceptable for…
Over what period did you have your investment in RealtyShares?
A lot of states have heavy restrictions on transport of alcohol, a sort of state-mandated middleman that is either parasitic or fulfills an important regulatory purpose depending on who you ask. This seems like a…
Devil's advocate: maybe she's one of the designers and happened to volunteer because she likes being a face. I think it's unusual that they'd go this route, and maybe it would sell better if the model was a man in a…
What we got here is a failure to communicate. An appeal to authority is a type of fallacious argument; in attributing the quote to Einstein, your subtext is that his endorsement is your argument. But, of course,…
You're forgiven. <3 On a different note, Damore chose to include mention of "leftist protest" because Google's culture is left-leaning – he's explicitly saying that Google is very left, while not so left as these…
I don't know the answer but if I cared to guess, it might be because the talent pool for orchestra performers had significantly more gender parity than the talent pool competing for elite engineering jobs at Google.…
You didn't just add emphasis, you changed the original text from "leftist" to "leftists" and failed to indicate this, which is dishonest.
'Page' argues that because Damore didn't mention that men score higher on aggression and lower on cooperation, this is evidence of motivated reasoning. Counterpoint: Damore only lists personality traits that lead to…
There was an awk/perl thread yesterday too.
I strongly suspect that Europe would be spending more money on defense particularly against Russia and maybe China if America weren't backing them. America also contributes to international military endeavors more than…
One thing I've noticed about American culture, versus the other countries I've been/worked in, is that it's highly litigious. I suspect that one of the reasons people feel uncomfortable is the threat of lawsuit (or…
Facebook is non-rivalrous but is is excludable (that is, one user of Facebook does not 'take up a slot' preventing any other users from using it, but you can be prevented from using it if you don't 'pay', i.e. follow…
The article even mentions that the utility provider ConEd in Brookyln offers green energy, so there's almost no point in LO3's services. Not that I'm an expert in electrical grids, but I'd rather the actual grid…
I find Perl extremely useful for making prototypes really quickly, and never learned how to use Awk because I only started with Perl in the first place a year or two ago. I'm sure it's just a matter of preference.
"Are you saying we should fix when people geek out about a topic and ramble?" "It may be uncomfortable, but it's the only way to make cultural progress." And you've really only explained what tacit rules are and how…
