Of course it is a viable business model. If the payoff is high enough a high probability of success is not needed. That's why small stock mutual funds work.
If I can get paid 200::1 on a 100:1 shot of winning I'm taking that bet every day long with 1/300th of my net worth. And by EOY I'm guaranteed to be way profitable.
yet... here I am... still running new versions of FreeBSD... which have features that even OS X doesn't have yet...
So which version of BSD can run Office 2016 for Mac? None. That's the point. Even though almost all of Darwin is open source that doesn't change the fact that OSX is closed source.
The original project is not what matters. What matters is the version that is in use today. You've been around long enough to know this. Having a fully documented set of instruction to build a carriages doesn't make your car's OS any more open source.
What's app stops encrypting but then other apps offer this. Creating a messaging app is something a bright middle school kid can do. That same kid can read how to do basic encryption or compile in a short encryption function. You don't even need companies at this point to do it, just to tolerate it.
Now of course if they can get apple, facebook, google, microsoft... not to tolerate it and foreign companies to feel the same way... then yes you could stop it.
That's what the data is for. Bunions are common. Given enough data we start developing good quality correlations about patient satisfaction, dangers, long term costs... for all these methods based on diagnostic criteria. With good quality data we can get more specific. Refine, repeat. The experts don't need to know the answer they just need to feed in data and respond as the systems evolve to be more specific.
Of course Obamacare had a lot to do with it. It pushed large numbers of providers from doing their encoding during the billing phase to doing it during the clinical phase. That made that the data much more accurate.
Every time this complaint comes up I say the same thing. Stop writing horizontal apps. Indie developers can (and should continue) to focus on narrowly targeted vertical applications. You aren't going to write a better driving app than Google maps, Apple maps, Waze, Open... But you can write a better application for skiers that consolidate deals and account for reports of conditions. You can write a better app for hotel front desk applications to tie to the mobile phones of hotel maids in navigating which rooms have checked out vs. which have left vs. which still have people in them. You can write a better application for appliance installers which gives them information on which warehouses to pick up which parts in...
There is still a wide open market for vertical applications. Horizontal is too competitive but so what? Vertical pays way better.
Stop redefining words. Indie means not working for a large company nothing more nothing less. Indie does not imply any position at all on distribution channels.
What you are describing is capitalism. Yes one of the main points in owning a company is to build a base to get acquired. A good idea product has to build a brand identity soon or it will be inundated with clones. Etc...
It is a bit much to ask Apple to solve those sorts of problems.
That's the political system not the legal system. The legal system would be responsible for enforcing a law requiring backdoors.
I have serious question whether such a thing is possible. There are literally millions of people in the world who understand the math of encryption and tens of thousands who know good algorithms (not that texting requires good algorithms, bad will do fine). We have systems that can run sandboxed code everywhere and their use is expanding.
How does the legal system do anything? I don't see how they win even if their were a law.
I don't know Go but computer chess doesn't feel like human chess. Computer players have worse strategy and much better tactics than a comparably rated human.
AFAIK we crossed the line on AI doctors in the mid 1990s. Given an encoding of systems the AI outperformed humans pretty consistently. I'd assume in 2016 it isn't remotely close. One of the purposes of forcing doctors to encode systems with charting (Obamacare) is to allow for statistics to further improve the computer systems that decide on courses of care and of course make it possible for them to suggest treatments or rank them real time during the charting process.
That's a lot like human beings. You didn't invent the wheel, fire, foods that form complete proteins, paper, language... for yourself. You inherited a culture full of knowledge and add your little bit to it. Human cultures evolve, computer software evolves. Computer software is evolving at a much faster pace than human culture for now (and for at least the next several decades).
NN have been around for 40 years. Lots of people have built stuff already.
Mainly FSF is a political organization not a software shop. They did a lot of good work, and they failed on some projects. Lots of top quality people couldn't keep up with the Linux kernel no embarrassment in that. The person who gets the bronze in the olympics is not a failure.
Does anyone know how this is different from the other open source neural nets that exist?There have been tons of these over the last 40 years. AFAIK most of the algorithms originate in academia and stay there where open sourcing is the norm.
This is with a warrant. The government was always free to listen in to communications with a warrant. What changed under Bush and expanded greatly under Obama until Snowden was the use of general warrants to at least partially monitor all communications.
How can the legal system push on this. Facebook can't comply with the order. A refusal in USA law (and I think virtually all other law) requires that you be able to do something. This isn't a question of law it is a question of fact. Enforcement agencies and much of the legal profession simply disbelieve that encryption is based upon mathematical principles that technology companies have no way of breaking. They will lose because the math of encryption is well known and well understood.
Besides why should you be changing the default Perl or Ruby for all applications and not just the ones the scripts you are writing or using that need a newer version?
I think you may want to check your facts. OSX is heavily documented, check the developer's website. The system can be tweaked for performance using documented attributes as is regularly done by developers of many applications.
At an interest rate of say 4% you are paying about 1/2% / mo. If renting is coming in about 30% more than that then its about 230 mo rent to pay the house off outright. If you are including taxes, upkeep... that makes owning a no brainer.
In such a situation you have high deflation. The way you get out of that trap is a by having a common use currency which is not as deflationary... the silver banking system in the USA when we had the gold standard being an example.

3rd party means "non-Apple" that applies equally to the two person shop and Microsoft or EA. Again nothing to do with Indie vs. big company.

The trashcan issue, yeah those are non customers. The its been 2 years since an update and it is now very overpriced those are real mac people.
change /etc/paths.

I think you may want to check your facts. OSX is heavily documented, check the developer's website. The system can be tweaked for performance using documented attributes as is regularly done by developers of many applications.
Since when are there any content restrictions on OSX?
Agreed. If you are chasing income then renting makes sense even if economically you are taking a loss.
At an interest rate of say 4% you are paying about 1/2% / mo. If renting is coming in about 30% more than that then its about 230 mo rent to pay the house off outright. If you are including taxes, upkeep... that makes owning a no brainer.
