I hate to be a stickler for words, but "Slightly over half of Azure VMs are Linux" is not the traditional definition of dominate.
It is after what microsoft said about Linux and how much effort they put into killing it.
OMG though this thread is rocking it old school. Let's party like it's 1999. I should have spelled it Micro$oft. OK my parties may have sucked a bit back then.
Nobody ever measures lives saved by stringent certification against lives lost because everything is delayed years getting certification.
Indeed not but certification requirements didn't come out of nowhere. It used to be a free-for-all and that caused real problems too.
An on the flip side of what you've said people have recently started to look at the lives lost by excessive medical diagnostics. There now exist poplation scale screening for certain conditions (generally types of cancer). It's very hard to tune the false positive rate; you don't want to miss real cancer, but if the FPR is too high, it can send a lot of people for further treatment some of which will go wrong.
2. We accept everyones contributions, we don't care if you're liberal or conservative, black or white, straight or gay, or anything in between! In fact, we won't bring it up, or ask. We simply do not care.
Which rather ironically sounds like a code of conduct. In between all the bullshit where they whine about code of conducts they are in fact mandating certain standards of behaviour.
My problem is that the center left folks are not criticizing the far left angry "I hate white cis males who are all nazis who deserve to be taxed/punished".
So centre left people don't criticise a figment of right wing imagination? Fancy that!
It's amazing how many sub threads have terminated on a near enough identical comment of yours recently. It's almost like you have a point or something...
The funny thing about narrow minded idiots like you is that, in the name of "tolerance", you often end up sounding more intolerant and insane than the "Nazis" you criticize.
Oh jeez, you've literally only just discovered the paradox of tolerance? You're going to be insufferable for your whole freshman year. My advice to you: read the wikipedia page, talk about it while wasted with your college buddies for like 6 months. Then it will be out of your system when you find a girl or guy, have to do some actual work and need to chose a major.
The problem here is the list of those it's PC to hate and abuse
I don't hate flat earthers. I doubt a significant number of people in the entire world actually hate them. I do however know they're reality denying idiots of the highest degree.
If it showed boys consistently outperformed girls on math and science, it wouldn't be allowed to be published.
Yeah, the deep state would prevent it. It wouldn't even help if the journal editors wore a tinfoil hat to protect themselves. What the mind control rays miss, the chemtrails will get.
Remember 2016 was the "mad as hell" election and still the Democrats ran the most establishment candidate possible. (If you're mad about Trump, blame the Clintons.)
No it's not the Deomcrats fault Trump won. I thought the Republicans were the 2party of personal" responsibility anyway...
Trump is and always was corrupt, venal and incredibly self serving. The information was all out there before the election. If you voted for Trump, the fault is entirely yours. Own it.
So just because we tried it, polluted a huge area and generated a couple hundred metric tons of contaminated material it's all good, we just didn't do it right that time?
Yes. This is demonstrably true because other countries have managed to do reprocessing just fine.
You need ot rewite the sentance to reveal the true meaning. "feasible" in this case means "not heavily monetized enough" and "not creepy enough with your data".
Basically they're going to pull them all closer put in more ads, od cross-app user analytics and basically make them nothing ohter than different interfaces to facebook.
I strongly suspect though that the reason people prefer instagram to facebook is because it isn't facebook. I recokon we'll see declining users of those other services within 9 months.
That's not AI, that's colour calebrated light sensors.
The one elephant example seems to be a shitty AI. There is a modern tendency to leave everything to a simplistic Artificial Neural Network,
Those are currently the most powerful techniques we have if we have tons of data.
No one's doing that out of a sense of perversity. Training a state of the art DNN is still not easy. No one has good ways of combining them with "symbolic reasoning" that isn't a reversion ot the method of handcoding tons of rules and cases that proved to work poorly in practice.
Funnily enough, if humans don't have certain data patterns in their training sets, their output also blows up in arbitrary ways.
We don't though and that's (a) interesting and (b) the topic of TFA.
You've never seen a small elephant levitating in a living room. Yet somehow the picture doesn't bother you and you can identify everything about it correctly, and not either miss the elephant completely or mistake it for a chair.
Yes it is. Once again you're doing little more than exposing your massive ignorance of the field.
For anyone else reading (not you, you're an idiot), deep learning is a neural network with more than one hidden layer. For anyone else reading, that's because a 3 layer net (1 input, one hidden layer, one output) can fit any function (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_approximation_theorem).
Turns out shallow networks are harder to train than deep networks. Deep learning also goes hand in hand with having no human designed feature extraction, the raw data is usually the input.
You do meet the entertainingly arrogant trifecta though: 1. Be very arrogant (check) 2. Demonstrate active lack of understanding of the entry level basics (check) 3. Dismiss entire field (check).
A minivan would probably be better and even safer, but people want a 'car' to drive.
Quite. People think they look cool and badass in an SUV or want to race off the lights or something. A minivan has as many seate with more space, more luggage and better economy. And can be converted to hold tons of stuff in about 3 minutes.
The fact that we haven't had that since the yanks told us we couldn't invade Suez seems to pass them by.
I always thought of it the other way around. We always had sovreignty because we cold choose to ignore any of the EU's laws. Of course we'd have to leave to do that but we always had the choice. for some reason people think "soverignty" means "do whatever with no consequences".
As for getting behind the leader, that's what lemmings do.
Quite so.
I don't see that. It won't make, say, our carmakers any better than they already are, but we could still lose huge amounts of jobs and the related tax revenue from financial companies moving - which is already happening.
Yes. It won't be good. Just under that unlikely scenario, manufacturing would probably rise with a bit less inequality as a result. That's the relative level of course: everyone would be dragged down a long way.
Referring back to QT, there was a woman on the panel who was the first to say it publicly AFAIK - what the people voted for is irrelevant it if it can't actually be done
Makes sense. And not only that is no one can even agree on what people voted for. What does leave even mean? Apart from "leave" of course...
As to all those deals we'll be able to do, India (one of the most protectionist countries there is) told her to go pound sand last year and she's been reduced to trying to flog weapons to those lovely Turks and Saudis.
Well there's always Australia. They're big and close, right?

You somehow managed to answer your own question very angrily and not even realise it.
Why the hell is this relevant?
How the fuck is any of [race gender etc] relevant to their work?
It's not. But some people think it is. And that's why there's a CoC to tell them that it isn't.
this is the only COC any project needs... https://github.com/domgetter/N...
From the self-proclaimed NCOC:

So all they have is a really whiny CoC.

Which word did you find unclear?
The bit where it offends his worldview.
GP> Got any examples?
You> Yes. It totally happened once.
IOW no. You have no actual examples you can point to of your claim.

If you check history, that really is how it works with Nazis. People not against them are for them.
Yes and? If you're not actively against genocide then you know what, fuck you. You're still scum even if there's even nastier scum out there.
Bullshit (a euphemism for "I disagree"). Why are some words special?
That's a very interesting question. There are aspects of human psychology where...
Oh I just realised. You're not interested in the actual answer. You're posing a rhetorical question in the hope that you can deny reality.
There is no objective reason to single out particular words.
There's no objective reason for doing anything either.
Flat earthers...
The problem here is the list of those it's PC to hate and abuse
I don't hate flat earthers. I doubt a significant number of people in the entire world actually hate them. I do however know they're reality denying idiots of the highest degree.
I don't hate you either.
More democrats voted for Hilary than Republicans voted for Trump and it's Hilary's fault that Trmp won.
wat.
If it showed boys consistently outperformed girls on math and science, it wouldn't be allowed to be published.
Yeah, the deep state would prevent it. It wouldn't even help if the journal editors wore a tinfoil hat to protect themselves. What the mind control rays miss, the chemtrails will get.
Have you thought some of those programs (vi, emacs) are obsolete today?
No. Next question.
With all due respect, it's overwhelmingly women who become primary school teachers
So? That's a very recent phenomenon which is as good as proof as you'll get that it's entirely social factors.
Remember 2016 was the "mad as hell" election and still the Democrats ran the most establishment candidate possible. (If you're mad about Trump, blame the Clintons.)
No it's not the Deomcrats fault Trump won. I thought the Republicans were the 2party of personal" responsibility anyway...

Why not have three independently trained systems watch simultaneously and vote on what they're seeing?
Tha's called Bagging (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrap_aggregating).
Or Boosting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... if the weights aren't equal.

Deep Learning isn't deep.
