Blitz, Merlini, and Captitalist most recently, but Fogged used to play with them as well and Fogged has played with Merlini for a very long time.
Blitz and Moon are certainly "pros". Merlini used to be pro, but sure, he is not as good as he used to be and Fogged and Capitalist have played on teams at least semi-professionally.
I mean, they have to start somewhere, this is just more testing to get the AI ready to play top current pros at the exhibition matches later this month obviously.
For games 1 and 2 the AI got to draft it's own choice of 5 heroes out of the allowed 18 in an alternating picking sequence with the human opponents as is traditional. When each game started, the AI announced that it had a 95% confidence that it would win based solely on the heroes it had choosen against the human's choices.
For game 3 the audience picked 5 "random" heroes that had little to no synergy as a DotA team lineup and not good options for each of a DotA team's "roles" (pushing, ganking, tanking, supporting, etc). At the start of game 3 the AI announced that it calculated only a 2.9% chance that it would win against the human team with the heroes it was given.
Even with the severely gimped hero choices, it did an admirable job at trying to make it work by doing some unusual strategies. The professional casters even commented on how the AI was seemingly doing all the right things that it could have done given its poor position and that it actually did better in the match than anyone had expected it to do given the heroes that it was.
I work in tech as a software dev. I'm 29 and so far have roughly 250K in my retirement investments. As far as I understand I think I am doing OK.
I work 40 hours a week and never a minute more and I like what I'm doing. I also take 4 weeks of vacation a year and always travel when I do. My boss gives me about a 5% raise every year because he likes my work and values me. Most of my other college friends are in similar situations to me as far as I understand when I talk to them about their jobs. This is in central Wisconsin FWIW.
Fortunately FaceID requires your eyes to be open. I think it's probably pretty difficult to open the eyes of someone sleeping without waking them. Seems more secure than a fingerprint.
And if you are some sort of high profile individual who is afraid of or can't take the risk of being attacked by a super expensive face scan and 3D mask created of your likeness or something, then just don't enable FaceID. It's completely optional.
FaceID is meant as a convenience feature for the majority of average people who don't need to worry about several-thousand dollar tech attacks against them because they just aren't important enough to spend those kinds of resources to attack.
Technically this is cheaper than 5 cents per day too ($18.25 per year), but probably not worth the effort for most people for the $6.25 savings per year? Though if their income is $365 a year maybe it is worth it.
So if I rent a random small-time cheap VPS and install OpenVPN on it and connect through there they will somehow block it? What about if I run OpenVPN on an AWS instance? Are they blocking that? What if I use a socks proxy instead of OpenVPN?
And when the political power flips again in the future, the new administration will bring back the regulations.
This is why Internet regulation shouldn't be run by the FCC in the first place with their 5 votes. It's always going to flip flop based on which party controls the president.
I'd like to see congress pass some Internet regulations and let the FTC enforce it.
But just because self-driving cars are safer than the average driver, it doesn't mean it's safer than driving yourself if you are a very above average driver.
Even if there were 99% fewer crashes when using self-driving cars, if there is even one self-driving car fatality that wouldn't have happened if a human was driving, it's going to make people uneasy and ask what if that was me?
Obviously we don't know for sure. But to be fair, Zuckerberg straight up told a senator the other day that when you delete your profile they do delete your data. So either hes lying to them or they do delete it.
I thought IE was a problem because it was a bundled and default browser, and Windows isn't free. Chrome is obviously a completely free, and completely optional third party web browser.
I guess unless we are talking about Android. I was thinking about Windows and Mac PCs only before.
All the disks that Backblaze has installed in their servers that are HGST are old disks, purchased before WD even bought Hitachi. None of the HGST models they mention are currently even purchasable.
Bitcoin does over 6 billion a day in trade volume though. Would 1 billion really affect it that much? How about just do 100 million a day over 10 days? Or do it over a month.
Well me personally I am not interested in trading constantly like that.
I bought some back when they were $100 each and my plan was to hold onto them for like 30 years and just see what they end up like. They could end up worth nothing which in that case I didn't lose much at all. Or they could be worth a ton, like 50,000 per coin or something, especially once all the coins are mined and there is no supply of new coins.
People said it was in a bubble when bitcoin was $1000 and then they said it again when it was $2000. They said it would be foolish to buy bitcoin for $1000 or $2000
I don't know about you but id kill to buy bitcoins for $1000 or even $2000 now...
The problem I have with HDMI audio is that a video signal must accompany the audio signal for it to work.
I use Toslink for my computer to send stereo audio to my amp for my bookshelf computer speakers.
If I try to use HDMI, I have to connect my amp to my video card and set my desktop to extended mode and have this "dummy" desktop space that I can't see and that I can easily lose both my mouse cursor and windows to if I accidentally drag them over to the extended desktop space.
You might ask why not connect my monitor to the amp, or enable desktop mirroring mode. Well, my computer monitor is 2560x1440 at 165Hz and no amp with HDMI can do that.
So, what would you propose? I would use digital coaxial, but my motherboard doesn't have that, it has a Toslink output port which works great. I'm not interested in more than stereo speakers for my computer.
The plugins generally stream from file locker type http content hosts.
The plugins use the file locker APIs to find the. Since it's just file lockers stuff gets taken down all the time by DMCA, but people are uploading new copies of the content as fast as or faster than they are taken down so there is generally always a few working content results for a given title.
Pretty sure he's talking about a level 5 fully autonomous car.
Commercial airplanes still have pilots that are always paying full attention to the flight and can easily take over full control if something goes wrong.
If you are in a self-driving car and it's fully autonomous, maybe you aren't paying full attention, and you certainly don't have time to take over when you are going 70mph with other cars right around you if something suddenly goes wrong.
I find that If I don't exercise on a given day that I don't get very sleepy in the late evening. If I do exercise though then I fall asleep really easily and sleep really well that evening.

Most of them have played and practiced together quite a bit actually.

Eh, I was really comparing to people talking about VPNs which aren't cheap either.
To be fair though, you can get a VPS for $1 per month ($12 for a year) that is more than sufficient for OpenVPN or a SOCKS proxy.

who exerts this much effort and energy (literally, it's a ton of electricity)
Who says it's going to be proof of work? Maybe it will be a proof of stake coin. There are already other proof of stake coins out there that work.

They way I see it, you don't have to use Chrome...
Is there really a law that prevents me from writing my own web browser that blocks all ads except my own?
Couldn't this be solved by simply putting an extra strong paper roller into the printer that simply feeds into some sort of paper shredder?
Is there no market for peopel willing to spend more on a paper jam-less printer?

It's not BS. Why did Amazon recently pull the Twitch.TV app from Roku then?
Because Amazon owns Twitch.TV and they want you to buy a FireTV instead of a Roku to stream it to your TV, that's why.

Yep, that's what I assumed I would fall into myself so my decision was just hold the coins in cold storage and check on them again in several years.
Well me personally I am not interested in trading constantly like that.
I bought some back when they were $100 each and my plan was to hold onto them for like 30 years and just see what they end up like.
