The hardware since the 295 days is around least 3 times as fast too. It seems just about every publication on neural networks has had something about GPUs in the last few years.
This was done on cards 7 years old now. The massive increase of power in GPUs in the past few years along with more features and better programing languages for them means the performance increase could possibly be many hundreds of times faster. An entire cluster of servers gets crunched down in to one card, multiple cards in one server, and build a cluster of those and you can quickly see that amount of computing power available to neural networks is much much larger now. I'm not even sure how to compare the GT6800 to a modern GTX680 because of their huge differences, but the 6800 did 54 FLOPs and the 680 does 3090.4. A 57x increase. CPU's how far back to we have to go where CPUs are 57 times slower. If everything scales the same in the papers calculations it would mean over a 2000x performance increase on a single computer with 1 GPU. In 7 years.

The police can't ask you to do something then arrest you for doing it.
NEVER step off your property to talk to a cop if they've asked you to after you've been drinking then. Cops can arrest you for whatever they want. Anything. Whatever they think of at the time. In the worst cases you might have some comeback against the police, but in the vast majority of the cases the charges are dropped and you're kicked to the street. In the worst of the cases, you're let out of jail 30 years later because a modern look at the evidence shows you had nothing to do with it. More then a few people have sat in jail for a long time for having done nothing other then being black at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Doesn't matter either way. The cops won't know if your a hacked node vs a real node until they have your computer in hand. That will probably involve the Gestapo kicking in a door and taking your daughters Winne-the-Poo laptop. Maybe some pictures on the news and such, before the cops realize that that Mrs McMuffinmaker doesn't know shit about exit nodes and the fuckton of Nazi propaganda going over it. It's best if you attack at least moderately wealthy people so their lawyers get them out of jail and make a media stink about the entire deal.
Second, why wouldn't the people knowingly setup a hidden node like their computer has been hacked if it becomes a legitimate defense if caught, but they want to run an exit node anyway?
Talking about Oracle or SAP as a Linux problem is odd, they are professionals at making large, expensive, and at many times, very fucked up software.
Also, http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-28792 "Why does SAP de-support 32-bit server operating systems for new releases from 2007 onward?"
I think you may be suffering from a case of "I don't know what I'm talking about".
Then again, since I'm not an armchair administrator and work in the real world I tend to know the software requirements of both the 32-bit and 64-bit packages of the software we use for both Windows and Linux.
If you have papers and documents of national importance I expect you to keep that shit secure. If you're a company that keeps shit secure, I expect you to keep that shit secure.
It's like a safe company getting broken in to and all their safes robbed. Yes, it's their right to call the police and have them investigate, but damned if I'm going to trust them to protect my goods.
Depending on the type of site, ads could be integrated in such a way that only the most complex and almost unworkable ad blockers would have any effect.
It would require a lot more processing on the server side though, and have higher bandwidth requirements, so it's not free and in many cases not pay for itself.
Trying to enforce copyright law on the end user rendered text/imagery of a markup language is the definition of insanity. I know you might have missed it, but people tend to skip the EULAs and TOS's. If people want what you have (music for example) and you make it hard to get (pre-itunes days) people will find a way (napster). Now that many paid services like pandora or iTunes exist people use them. Attacking and/or annoying your users is a good way to get them to either not use you, or far worse, actively attack and give away your product.
People should love you, and if not that, fear you. They should never hate you, hate makes them dangerous.
Yes, quite often. The most annoying offenders pop up the full screen shit saying in big scary letters that you have a virus and that bad things are going to happen if you don't clean it (install their program). These tend to reopen themselves again and again unless you kill the browser off. The worst offenders target Flash exploits to auto-install their payload.
These kinds of attack have hit almost every big site. Sometimes it makes major news stories.
I remember in the '90s surfing the net on the T1 (1.5Mbps) at work. It was awesome, pages were instant, it quick, responsive, and enjoyable. Now surfing on a T1 isn't fast at all. The HTML on this page is 400KB alone, without compression, and with fast RTT that's still a 3 second download, then all the external calls to ads (which./ doesn't have too many), the size can easily reach 700KB. It's not hard to find pages that load many MBs of data. If it's all coming off one server with keep-alives, it's not too bad, but the external calls to piles of different servers each with there own TCP and HTTP handshake it's a different story.
Just surf with almost all ads blocked for a while, then go back to no ads blocked. It's like two different internets.
Look at AdBlock+ again. A lot of its ruleset is lines like
^/images/ads/*
That block anything coming from an ads directory on a server. Now to get around that you could serve some or most of your sites images via a script like/images/image.php?HASHKEY
If the user blocks the ads, they also block the legit content. I'm pretty sure this would trash the cacheability of the site and would present a higher load on the server, so it's not free to do.
Go to whatismyip.com, pop ups there, though pretty much every modern browser seems to block them by default.
It may be easy to find sites that aren't raging shitstorms of ads and frequent them, but that doesn't help you when you visit a lot of different sites a few times ever. The long tail of internet browsing. It's much easier and safer to block all websites and whitelist the ones you trust. Even in the cases of the sites I've whitelisted because I trust them, I've had there ad networks shovel out "OMG YOU HAVE 36 VIRUS, CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD ANTIVIRUSXP 20??" which proceeds to spawn many copies that resist closing.
Bad advertising leads people to become 'Ad Racists', The bad actions of a few (a few too many on the internet), cause the entire category to get blacklisted since it's easier just to block all ad networks then decide which are decent and which aren't decent.
I worked on a friends website/forums for a number of years before he sold it. He served his own ads to products he sold on his store. At first we noticed that a good number of the ads were getting blocked because they fell under the same rules as the default AdBlock list blocked, after we changed it the page request/image request went closer to normal levels.
If you don't want ads blocked on your local site and you serve your own ads, you can get really creative and serve all your images via a php (or whatever language) style script 'img src=image.php?somestring'. just blocking image.php cuts off all images to the site. This can backfire if you annoy your customers too much as they may go elsewhere.
I'm not sure why a 32-bit Linux application would need a 32-bit kernel? Unless it's poking deep in the guts of the system, in which it's most likely going to be tied to a particular kernel anyway.
32-bit linux applications need 32-bit glibc (or whatever libc/library they use) to run. Both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions can be installed on a 64-bit system just fine. Most of the time you'd run without the 32 bit libraries since you use lots more space with them, and until you get in to specialized programs, most come with 64-bit versions. On an application that doesn't use rpm, or some other packaging to tell you what libraries you need, you can be left guessing on what you need to install, I will give you that.
But thinking Windows is more friendly then Linux on 64-bit is insane. The whole capture the system call and write it to a different directory thing... verses/lib and/lib64. Yea.
DLL Hell and the closed source nature of most Windows code.
Lets say you have Windows App A, it has a tie in to Windows App B which uses licensed somecode32.dll. Unless the maker of somecode32.dll releases a somecode64.dll and Windows App B recompiled to 64-bit, Windows App A has to stay 32-bit. Since there is such an insanely huge install base of 32-bit programs that are still being used but not actively developed that Windows developers stick with the lowest common denominator.
The other half is development time in performance sensitive code that's been 'hacked' in such a way that it only works on 32-bit systems. The time involved to un-fluck it isn't worthwhile for a lot of developers to fix currently.
>tl:dr is the internet equivalent of sticking you fingers in your ears and going "lalala". We don't need to know.
tl:dr is what you did with the original article, and you didn't put any further research in to it. They told her she could have one with no battery if she didn't talk bad about the program. From other news sources (from before the infowars one) they state students that didn't have the fully working RFID card were not allowed to participate in student voting and other functions. Also not stated is that this is a pilot program for 100 other surrounding schools. Someone wants to to shut up so they can get rich implementing this at all the schools in the area.
Yes, the ice trapped in the turkey quickly turns to water then steam. This steam takes up a lot more volume causing displacement of the oil. Now you have hot oil incorporated with steam and air escaping its container, some of this oil forms a vapor could which is ignited by the oil that runs down the side in to the gas flame. The oil doesn't auto-ignite, the gas flame does that.
Mid-30's. Only job that had a tag is when I worked for the cable company. Was required to get in the door after hours. Since I didn't go to customer sites while I worked there I didn't have to have a photo id/badge. Most of the issue you're talking about is entry level, entry level is cattle to corps of any size. You're bagged and tagged the day you're hired.
Stuffing a non-frozen turkey in a frier that fast will lead to bad things, remember dip it in slowly so any excess water in the turkey boils off without turning the entire thing in to a conflagration.
Oh yea, never fry in your garage, on a wooden porch, or close to anything that will catch on fire.
On that note, I have two turkeys on my counter ready to be injected with butter and a nice rub put on them before I fry them. Fully defrosted, no need for a hospital visit.

Why build a special processor when ATI and Nvidia already do. Probably at a much lower cost per calculation then a custom machine.

"The maximal speedup of GPU implementation over dual CPU implementation was 41-fold for the network size of 15000 neurons."
