Do you think so? Did he have a hard time explaining why Russia bombed the Free Syrian Army after they stated their intention of combating ISIS in Syria?
There's not much explaining going on most of the time, just plain denial.
I agree with this. There's a lot of theory and experimentation going on in Machine Learning currently, but that's all research, not something you just hop into. Although there are many attempts at technology transfer and commercial exploitation of ML, I don't think there are currently any established tools and practices for that. In that sense, there is no ML equivalent of web-designer, or system-administrator.
If netflix has been using html5 video rather than silverlight, why didn't this work on firefox earlier? Can you imagine I even read TFA to find out, to no avail.
... why does Google drop bugs about MS at or before 90 days, while giving Apple 1+ year to fix bugs in past?
Microsoft appears to give the answer to that question itself in the blog referenced by TFA:
Windows is the only platform with a customer commitment to investigate reported security issues and proactively update impacted devices as soon as possible. And we take this responsibility very seriously.
Great setup. Furthermore (since he said he didn't really grasp the fine details) I'd suggest: put the keyboard and the monitor on the table, and put the chair and the table close together, preferably with the chair right in front of the keyboard and monitor. Very comfortable, you won't regret it!
only 10% of Tor users are journalists, human rights activists, etc. A bit more than half use it to hide illegal activities.
(Yes, TFA is about messaging, but the whole "we must save encryption to protect the downtrodden" meme is just bogus.)
You got it backwards. To make your point about bogus, you should look at the percentage of journalists, human rights activists, etc. being Tor users, not the other way round.
That's a straw-man. Amnesty International's is not arguing that these services should be anti-government, just that they come with basic precautions to ensure that communications that are meant to be private are actually private.
To put it as a car-analogy, I think Amnesty envisions (end-to-end) encryption in messaging being standard, a bit like safety belts are standard in a car.
On that topic, I just brushed off my 2012 Nokia N9. After a factory reset, and some apt-get installing it's still a great phone! Too bad it had to go with Microsoft's unfortunate adventures in mobile.
They took the same reinforcement learning techniques from the Atria 2600 AI and applied them to Doom. It worked. Next they plan to do it on Quake. Let me give you a hint for the future: It'll work.
It is still noteworthy, since the Atari visual frames are built up from sprites of limited size that are very convenient for a convolutional model: once it has learned to detect the sprites, it has an accurate representation of the location of the relevant objects in the scene. In doom, since it is a 3D scene, there is no such one-to-one correspondence between object identities and visual appearance. The fact that the method still works is not at all trivial.
Yes, you are reading that correctly. The board itself, which starts at $117, will not operate on its own. To make it a full-fledged usable device for projects and other uses, you must add the SolidPC Q4 single-board 'carrier' computer which is $40. In other words, you are looking at a minimum of $157

This. How quiet (and efficient) would politics become if one could filter out all of this bullshit.

Thank god there's WebRTC...
the answer should be no.
That sounds like it's going to be discontinued before it ever takes off! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Yes, you wouldn't want any aliasing on those horizontal and vertical edges of the cursor!

Plus: Eroding morale is not necessarily a bad thing if you want somebody to stop doing something.
Whether this should worry Intel does not depend on Intel's market share in the server world, but on Microsoft's. I suspect not all that much.

Microsoft *Research* is by no means a piece of shit.
In a couple of years they will be releasing a browser called Navigator.

I thought Whatsapp has end-to-end encryption nowadays...

so we don't have to put up with this crap anymore
same here, it reminded me of this: https://youtu.be/n_1apYo6-Ow?t...

I think you overestimate the power of porn.
