It amazes me that people believe that AI(Machine Learning) can be regulated. There is no hard to purchase component like plutonium for an atomic bomb. The code to do machine vision is available everywhere. It doesn't take special hardware, yes, a good GPU can speed up the training phase but strictly speaking, it's not necessary. Please let me know how someone intends to regulate such a thing.
The article says next to nothing and then points to report by Diego Lo Giudice that costs $499 to read. What happened to the review process on slashdot? Pull this crap from the website!! report URL https://www.forrester.com/repo...
A nit pick.
A commercial pilot's license lets you be hired to take cargo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
An ATP (Airline Transport Pilot) license is required to take passengers for hire. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
And of course a type rating for the type of plane you're flying.
First off, Facebook is a public company, not a privately held one.
As a public company, the share holders could decide to change things but they won't.
A public or private company is not required to change what they display on their webpage unless it violates some law, it doesn't, find a real topic for the day.
I write software and smoke Pot, I make over $200K/year, maybe this view that if you smoke Pot, then you're a a slacker should be thrown out. Also, I live in Southern California, I don't think of myself as "Rich". I kinda of laugh when I see people get upset over $15/hour basic wage since you're definitely way below the poverty line in Southern California at $30K/year.
I think this is a good premise for a new scifi film like "Children of Men" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt02....
You know, virus gets out, most of the world loses the ability to have children.
Come on, what could possibly go wrong?
The main difference is the WD RED drives will error out quickly from an unrecoverable read error where as a typical desktop drive will retry the read, up to a minute, yes, a minute worth of retries which will confuse most RAID controllers into thinking the drive is bad (i.e. gone offline) and forcing an array rebuild. The idea being if you're not running RAID, it is okay to go through heroic efforts trying to trace difference paths over the track to get one good read out of the data before marking the sector bad.
Of course, if you're running RAID, the best thing is to fail the read quickly and rebuild the sector from parity.
I second this comment.
besides teaching college which will probably involve a graduate degree, most of thejobs with a liberal arts degree involve asking "Do you want fries with that?"
This shows how incredible out of control the CIA is.
I could almost accept that the CIA keeps this data to help with "foreign intelligence" in mind but if this data is available to both the FBI and DEA it is a clear violation of the CIA charter and should result with the director's head on the chopping block.
Let's all go over Dr. Dre's crib and have a wild party!
Why not, the fucker's a billionaire
Everybody is bothered because their lame idea didn't win the internet lottery.
Oh yeah, and Dre can go get his doctorate, NOT!
The headline states, "the amount of energy released through the fusion reaction exceeded the amount of energy being absorbed by the fuel".
This is not enough, they must be able to capture that energy and use it to produce the next laser implosion of the fuel.
That will be a milestone.
Also, since this is using a Deuterium-Tritium Fuel it produces very high energy neutrons which will help destroy the reactor much faster than in conventional fission reactions.
In the paper presented, they also include both a consumer and enterprise class disk drive.
The consumer class drive had the same problems as the cheap SSD.
I think the plea bargain agreement(http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/threatlevel/2012/12/Robert-Stuart_Plea-Agreement.pdf) should land Manhattan Assistant District Attorney James Meadows in Federal Jail.
He is asking the software vendor to commit theft on a large scale.
I'm not sure of the exact change, something like conspiracy to commit grand theft.
Just because you want something, it doesn't mean you'll get it.
We'll see if $120 Million is enough to make a difference.
The problem with gasoline is that is has such great energy density, about 46 Mega-joules per kilogram.
The best batteries currently are Lithium with an energy density of 1.8 Mega-Joules per kilogram. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_density
It would take about 12 hours to read the 5TB and compute SHA-1 for everything. (assumes 120MB/sec disk)
(5*10^12)/(120^10^6)=41666 sec = 11.57 hours.
After that you have 4M*(256 bytes metadata+20bytes/hash)=~1GB of memory.
Everything fits into an in memory hash table, lookups O(1) proceed at 1 lookup/microsecond.
It takes another 20 minutes or so to delete the duplicate files.
project done.
And I have a perl script that does this that I wrote in 1999, email me and I'll send it.
$19.95 for a beta of something you can whip up in about an hour of shell scripting.
Hell, I wrote exactly what people are talking about here in an afternoon in college - I even did both SHA and MD5, because I ended up finding a SHA collision between one of the Quake 3 files and a Linux system file.
I think your full of shit if you found an SHA collision.
Plesae provide an example.

When you call 911 with cardiac symptoms and then drop off the call, it's useful information.
But how many of my calls are to 911?
If there were really for helping 911 support, it need only track 911 calls

It would sure help with arguments with my wife
Yes, you could win them all and be divorced in no time.

SHA-1 runs at 450MB/sec per core on a current generation i7, this is not a CPU bound problem.

when their breasts are hacked off, but is that really the solution for things?
