>One speculation is that Wright was able to ... Apparently, he was able to prove, but did not allow others to keep copies of the evidence. At best, you can suspect. But how can you conclude so strongly that this was a…
There's not much wrong with such legacy systems. Unfortunately, they are more like exceptions. Most likely, your legacy systems break and you have no idea how to fix them. Or, you have to hire one guy for life because…
>Because the future is whatever you're building software in today. This is a seriously unhealthy attitude for software engineering. This attitude will create legacy systems and legacy systems that will live on forever.
>Intel, Westinghouse, biotech in general, and Dow do a pretty good job on the applied piece IMHO. Private companies are in a great position to do applied research, but they are often slow or unwilling to distribute the…
I believe that whoever is in charge of federal funding in R&D will have to be extremely smart and balanced in his views because R&D plays a great role in the economy and future of this country. The right approach is a…
To be fair, scientists by and large understand the need of replication, and evaluation in general. It's just in certain fields (e.g. psychology) or circumstances with human subjects, it's very expensive or even…
What does this do that nano doesn't?
To be fair, author should stick "Great" in front of each region.
A similar quote by Michael Jordan: “I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over…
Don't mean to sound like an insult, but this is the first tool (that I know of) intentionally designed to make people stupider.
>Personally, I think the Go community is a little unhealthily obsessed with this particular metric. Let's not forget that Go was invented to solve Google's problems, one of which is it took hours to compile their C,C++…
Somehow, I feel that the big deal here is the cleverness to use words like "neurons", "deep learning" and "human intuition" (the "intuition" here appears no more than simply taking the route giving max probability of…
I think you are teasing me, but my answer would be: no, it doesn't count. The Turing test is about "understanding". The filtering of those images has no understanding of what the images are about.
This is not a Turing test. Please correct me if I am wrong, but I bet that none of this was drawn by a computer. Most likely, those that were supposedly "drawn by computers" were pictures drawn by humans but applied…
The implication is that art and career are mutually exclusive, meaning once you become professional, you can't do art anymore. This assumption is not necessarily true.
Personally, I have never trusted these social network companies in terms of working with/for the platforms. Sure, when they are in trouble, when they need developers, they will say things like this. And when they are…
You can't eat the same foods people ate 20 years ago. The cows aren't the same. The chickens aren't same. Cows and chickens today are more obese and eat more antibiotics than they used to be.
Don't know about other countries. But in the USA, the six people who make the team are selected among high schoolers after rounds of competition. It does reflect very much a country's math education. But math education…
A Rust programmer can't seem to be Rusty. The more he's Rusty, the more he knows about it, which seems like a contradiction.
I don't get this guy. He seems smart and naive at the same time. He's living right under the nose of one of the largest spy agencies in the world: the KGB. Okay, I can see he doesn't want to talk about them. Fine. But…
Edward Tufte already called for the demolition of PowerPoint. PowerPoint is still alive and well. It won. The truth is PowerPoint is a very effective tool and you used it properly. If you are ignorant, lazy or stupid,…
I will believe it when I see it.
This is a biased if not myopic view of higher education. To Peter Thiel, the best route for a high school graduate is to go to Silicon Valley and do a start-up. While that might be the best option for a very few, it…
This finding is not surprising and is a result of shortsightedness by technology companies, IMHO. They placed more importance in video games, multimedia than the simple readability of texts. First, they moved away from…
