This sounds actually illegal? Like unauthorized access to computer systems federal crime illegal? What the fuck were they thinking.
That thing facebook does with demanding your phone number, that's my favorite dark pattern. Apple does the same thing with iOS upgrades. First you pose a seemingly innocent question, like 'would you like to give us your…
That's a great example of why unit testing is mostly useless. Having an expected/input output set when writing something like a parser is standard practice. Turning that set into unit tests is worthless for a few…
There's a much easier way to break it down. Tests are a pattern. And patterns are the bread and butter of the medicore. That's not to say that patterns or tests are bad, but high calibre guys know when to use which…
A DNN might be more effective at exploring the hypyerparameter space than people are with their intuition and luck. Rumor is Google has achieved this.
So the only advantage of the TPU is it's a simpler and more specialized asic? Google didn't break any new ground in terms of training perf?
No. Handing over card details just pre-authorizes them to make transactions later.

You're suggesting that your n=1 anecdote weighs more than those thousands of reddit stories? Or that my position is invalid because instead of engaging in another n=1 anecdote I aggregated the outcome of many? For your…

Because calling paid-for representatives has such a strong record of success over the last decade of human rights erosion. Talking to your representative is roughly as useful in curbing these things, as doing nothing at…
The plea of stupidity in high profile insider trading cases is a smoke screen - that was my point. Highly successful executives engage in insider trading quite frequently (see link). When they do, they take a calculated…

I would say that if people on HN are saying the attack is too stupid to be government supported, then the government has succeeded at their primary goal of having plausible deniability with these issues. If we take…

That's probably a question that CS researches will get to address one day in the future... Estimating what percentage of reasonable length DNA arrangements leads to intelligent organisms.
The definition of 'arranged marriage' today has been neutered. Until 2 generations ago, arranged marriage meant that women had absolutely no say in their marriage - it was at the decision of the parents and to further…

Does it even matter? It's a learned behavior in humans too. Nurture plays a far bigger role in what we do than people give it credit for.
I don't think all branches of evolution lead to intelligence given any finite amount of time.
It's worse than just having to trust their metrics. Last time I looked, you can't access your own realtime heart rate no matter what - it was only available to 'registered partners' or some shit. When I was looking,…
Agreed. I guess the core of the question is 'what does that ultimately give nintendo?'. And that's where I think the government needs to step in as it did with copyright and patents, and ask an additional question:…

I don't buy the added development cost argument. Firstly because AAA dev kits already have out of the box support for the Switch, secondly because sony and xbone put just as much effort into preventing unsigned code…
