No news is bad news. As long as the media's talking about him, they're not talking about someone else. His advantage in this race is he knows how to manipulate the media much better than the career politicians. And also, apparently, much better than the people the career politicians hire to manipulate the media for them.
What's interesting to me is that the Koch brothers and RNC Leadership are pouring millions of dollars into smearing him and it's having very little effect. The powers that be are used to just buying a race and the input from the electorate has always been a formality. It never even occurred to them that it could turn out any other way. Trump could actually be the first candidate actually chosen by the people in decades. And it turns out that those people are easily influenced by a platform of racism and a third grade vocabulary.
The Government might. Not the NSA, of course. They're pretty competent. Probably not the FBI. Maybe the justice department. They're like the NSA's retarded kid brother. You know, the one your friend always had to watch and had to wear a helmet to go safely out of the house. Some flunky over there might actually believe you'd put your real name on an anonymous Email service.
Yeah their bullshit is getting kind of old. We should just all go back to posting videos on some store and forward network like netnews (Ha ha only serious.)
When you're training a neural network you typically turn backprop off once you get the network where you want it, or it's likely to diverge from the "ideal" solutions that it is now arriving at. So when it's in an "In production" state, it's basically incapable of learning anything new, because that could throw off the results that you want to get from it. So yeah, it learned by playing a bunch of games with itself and analyzing the results. But if you find a style of play that it's weak against, it probably can't adapt to that without additional human intervention. But I'm just speculating since I don't know anything about how they implemented it.
When I clicked on the "here" link in "You can download the software here" the first time, it took me to some page about their CVS. Now it just gets you a tarball.
1990 called and wants its version control system back. I'd go poking around in their version control to at least determine the implementation language, but... nah.
I've never been into go, but I've found with chess and poker that playing the same opponents frequently lets you learn the quirks of those opponents' play styles. It's entirely possible that as he becomes familiar with AlphaGo's strategies, it will get easier for him to win games against it. I'd guess that AlphaGo doesn't have the same capability to learn on the fly.
You agree to Microsoft's dick in your ass when you buy one of their products. It's in their EULA. Microsoft may at any time install any random shit on your computer. And also put their dick in your ass. Totally legal. Everyone was all like "Well I guess I don't mind some dick in my ass as long as I can still play my games."
Yes, but increasing the fuel tax doesn't allow us to track where citizens are every moment of the day. That's really what they're getting out of this. The extra revenue is just gravy.
I view it as more of an "anti-social" network. If you want some information to die a quick death, post it to Google+. I started skydiving in July 2012 and posted all my skydiving shit on Google+. Never heard a peep from relatives, assumed they were OK with it. Took my sister and her daughter on tandem jumps a year later and kept them company on the ride up. Second they post that shit on facebook, I get a call from Mom, "WHAT DID YOU DO?!" Aah... priceless.
Did someone drive a stake through the body? Then burn it. Then drive a stake through the ashes and bury them. And then drive a stake through the ground where they were buried?
That feels like a rather ironic statement given the fact that Apple and Google are at the forefront of invading your privacy so they can better jam advertisements down your throat.
I was helping a friend trying to play a blu ray movie on her new Mac Mini. The pain of getting it to work was much higher than using her municipal fiber connection to play the movie on Netflix, which is what she ended up doing after about 15 minutes of me trying to get it to work.
The robots will be much easier to burn if their exoskeletons are made of paper. Good thinking, there! Bonus: they'll be much less likely to give us a hard time about being squishy if we can give them a hard time about being flammable.
Well to be fair that was nearly three decades ago. And after extensive research, I've found that by far the easiest way to not get caught is to not speed. And especially not speed when you're in the front of the line of cars, at 2 AM when you're the only car on the road, or in states whose primary source of income is speeding tickets. I also drove thousands of miles on that first job and quickly came to realize that as a long haul driver I had to be more careful than the locals. And that at the end of the day it doesn't really make a whole lot of difference if I tried to run 80 for the majority of my trip or if I tucked my car into the middle of a line of 18 wheelers doing a couple miles under the speed limit. And that the latter was certainly much less stressful.

Yeah, but as we all know, things are only illegal if you get caught. So as long as the Pentagon doesn't actually admit... whoops...
Nothing is technically illegal in Romania. It's like an eastern-European Mexico.

IIRC the war on drugs and "Just say no" popped up on his watch. And, you know, stuff...
Colin Powell will be warning the UN General Assembly about it later this week, and plans to show them a vial of deadly cyber pathogen to prove it!
Perhaps you'd rather listen to Darrel Issa take NPR's David Green to school on the subject?

See? We're not so different after all!

Not true. Some of them were also eaten by lions.

How many would agree if we were talking about their smartphone, specifically? Because whether they know it or not, we very much are.
