No, I mean that "someone else already wrote a library that does fuzzy audio matching and I am using that". You don't think these "researchers" wrote their own audio matching library do you?
Yes. Yes it really is. There are already audio fingerprinting software out there performs fuzzy matches on audio. Ridiculous.
if (sound_match(ford_150_car_engine_sound, engine_sound_clip))
printf("ITS A FORD F150!");
This isn't shocking. If you can match an acoustic signature you can figure it out. There have been tons of these "research" projects coming out of Universities lately. I guess this is what passes for research nowadays. I can write a program that can identify any car that drives by with good accuracy just by recording the sound the engine makes and matching it against known engine sounds. Ridiculous.
The summary misses some important answers to questions like "how many top-level domains are approved?" and "What is the single most popular in use"? Once the summary answers these questions I will take it seriously.
This is complete gibberish. "pairs a neural network with the vast data storage of conventional computers" Um, what were neural networks paired with before? Non vast-data storage?
I think it is because the timing is suspicious. Why is this an issue NOW when private for hire drivers have been doing this in London for 200 years? Could it be because Uber is there now?
There is only one definition of Moores Law: the number of transistors per square inch on integrated circuits will double every year. That hasn't happened for many years now. Cue the rage! It doesn't change the facts.
Exactly. I knew as soon as I pointed out that Moores Law is dead that people here would get angry. People are spoiled and assume that technological progress will always continue. That is because they don't realize how much work went into fulfilling Moores Law. A lot of people worked very hard to get us where we are now. But your computer today is going to perform a lot like the one you will be using 10 years from now. That is reality.
Wrong. I knew someone would say that. Moores Law is already dead. You don't even know what Moores Law is apparently. It has nothing to do with building a PC 2x as fast for 1/2 the cost.
This is the consequence of the death of Moores Law. A lot of people won't be happy to hear this, but Moores Law is dead and won't be coming back. Digital computers are reaching an endpoint and there are no more leaps to be made technologically here. Essentially digitial computing is hitting a dead end. The computer you have today will look a lot like the one you will have 10 years from know. I know people will go on about 3D microchips, atomic transistors, exotic materials, but that isn't going to bring back Moores Law. We have been spoiled for decades, but the party is over.
This happened to me when trying to read the previous article on theguardian. With Chrome I didn't see an easy way to get around it. I am sure there is a way in the settings, but who bothers with trying to figure that out.
This is impossible. The Japanese "honor/Bushido that is so ingrained in their culture would make this an impossibility. Truthfulness is a major pillar of Bushido. What a fucking joke.

100% correct. Of course we do that already by judging people based on their lineage and background.
That is a myth. The best indicator of anyones (financial) success is the relative wealth of their parents.

This will help in Googles quest to turn Google "Fiber" into fixed point wireless.
That is because marketing sells phones. Very few people (1-2%) care about two SIM slots for example.
Video card? What are you talking about? Neural networks have been around a lot longer than video cards. Gibberish.
They caught a bad guy. What is the problem here? It is entirely correct to be suspicious of a guy who has $100k in gift cards.
...the penalty is that the taxpayer paid for this investigation. But nothing is going to change.
This is complete gibberish.

So there have been private hire drivers in London for 200 years. Why is this a sudden requirement NOW?
Dark Avenger is working at AMI writing BIOS microcode.
It was a very inspirational event. Something we need in the world now. Kudos all around to the athletes and the people who put the event together.
Lets just say I would vote for the fucking clown in the sweater.
How can you be undecided at this point who to vote for? What a fucking clown.

This is more hidden marketing for the Amazon Echo. Just stop it. No one wants to buy the Echo.
