I willing to take a punt and guess that the models they’re using are using short term/isolated data, not 10 years worth of your entire browsing history.

You must be booking first class? Or at peak times? It’s £150ish open return from Dundee to London via Edinburgh IIRC for standard class off peak. Pretty much same price as Dundee to Edinburgh train &g…

Can you go do that for my Facebook, Google, Adobe etc etc ad data? Their resistance to GDPR compliance is well documented. This is the core point you’re missing. People here are talking about the ind…

> Features like "Dark Mode" are not about brightness, but contrast. Exactly. Something that the article doesn’t seem to pick up on is how we read and dark modes effect on that depends on…

PhD in machine learning & cyber sec here. My workflow: 3 months before... “huh, I have that coming up, I should probably get something down” writes an abstract on latex then gets distracted by an…

Businesses that based their SaaS data analysis products on Hadoop. Preconfigured clusters, integration with your existing AWS deployments. All that sort of jazz.

Disagree with both statements. 1) is not a containerisation problem. It’s a team problem. I can jam in a load of npm and pip installs in to a shell install script. Maybe even delete /usr/ fo…

^ This. Also means developers can work in whatever environment they want, but the result will be reproducible (almost) anywhere.

OKRs seem like a fancy new version of KPIs. My single biggest issue with KPIs is that, for the most part, in a large company, one (or even several) metric(s) cannot cover the whole story. They are use…

I do exactly this unless I absolutely need to give out shipping/payment deets. Also... use a xxxxx@mailinator.com email address to avoid having to sign up for real.

One more - is it possible to edit the font size as well as the style? I like it small! (Others might like it large)

Like it. Will use it for a bit and see what I think. Things so far: - please update that privacy policy ;) - entries when scrolling in dark mode can be a bit “jittery” - thank you for the reader view…

Copyright is enshrined in law. You don’t get the choice of picking and choosing to abide by it or not. The artificial monopolies (they’re not artificial btw) are guaranteed by those laws. Should an ar…

FYI - this looks like it may be a valid claim before you all go grab your pitchforks and torches. https://twitter.com/roomieofficial/status/113018091135248793... …

Pretty sure it’s just 70 years after death.

This is not always true. My last company had at least one client lagging behind by about 100 releases. I think it was browser compatibility and their internal enterprise firewall.

I would. I love a browser that renders everything to plain text (go Lynx!). Much less guff to download.

That one economics paper, as an example, could have made one seemingly innocuous assumption that might be overlooked by later work. Let's say a paper that relies on the preprint take that assumpt…

Something ridiculous like 90% of arXiv papers get lost in the sheer volume of submissions - 90% of it could be wrong (that's a made up number, sue me). Just like flat earth or anti-vaxer theori…

Comments from a machine learning / AI focused PhD student. Sorry if I get a bit ridiculous below, I'm up to my neck in coffee and having one of my more "esoteric" days... 0) Golden…

Publishing to arXiv [1][2] is your best bet in the short term. - Free - Lots of subject areas (not just computer sci.) - People may cite your work - People may offer feedback You do need to get endors…

PhD researcher for cybersec/ml. So yes... ish. Not doing commits/builds every day. It's actually fine for that. I have 24 hour access to my uni building so I just go in when no-one else…

You say that you're talking about "basic" things... I have no idea what a huffman code is or what two's complement even means. Literally, not figuratively, zero idea. ... I'm …

I live without internet at home now. It's amazing how much more space there is in my brain after reducing that single input.

Did you check out the wandewelle album that came out last year? bliss!

I love Music for Programming!

Thanks for reminding me about inertial frame
