For my use case, I need access to the GPIO pins. The blurb on the Flirc says that access is possible but I don't see any opening. Can you confirm that GPIO access I possible?

I also read recently that the lack of cooling can really throttle the performance of a Pi4. Do you have a good heat sink and fan installed?

I share a lot of the opinions of @nybblesio. By a miracle, I have stayed employed well into my 50s but I think I am reaching the end of my tolerance of conventional software development. You simply can't expect to remain employed as a

And you get a high salary, post PhD only if you are in some hot field. I got one the earliest PhD's in neural networks - but this was in 1992, long before the world discovered machine learning. It took a while for my salary to catch up

Given the current COVID-19 crisis, this statement really staid out "But chronic exposure to polluted air can result in the overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines and chronic inflammation that leads to nerve cell death." As ma

This is almost exactly what happened in my household. I am also in the NYC metro area. Kids had very mild symptoms, wife lost her sense of smell and I had fever/chills for a few days. I tested positive for covid but thankfully it appea

As the company was clearly dying, a toxic environment was beginning to develop. Eventually, I just wanted out, regardless of the impact of my departure.

Having worked for a dying tech startup at one point in the early 2000s - I spent time agonizing over the fact that if I quit, the company would become unviable - I was one of the key technical people and was the only person with a good unde

Even more fundamentally, feels amazing to me now that this was all manually laid out! Each generation of ICs made it easier to create more sophisticated computers which in turn enabled the creation of yet more sophisticated ICs.

Years ago, one of my coworkers bought testcompany.com and got an amazing amount of internal emails from organizations.

I wonder if this also has some bearing on Alzheimer's. My father who has a notoriously bad sense of small developed Alzheimer's a few years ago.

This is absolutely correct - we need all front line people-facing workers to be tested on a daily basis.

I have to thank you for this link - one of the greatest channels I've ever stumbled upon on YouTube!

They must be doing the same thing along I-80 as well. For several years, I have been seeing these patches of bright pink/purple flowers here in NJ and been wondering about them as they looked too regular to be entirely natural. I love

My guess is that particulate solution due to those emitted from tires is probably very localized near highways.

Thats exactly the problem with Facebook - no firewalls between the various personas of an individual.

Same here - there is absolutely no reason for me to be physically present in the office so I plan to work from home as much as possible in the near future

Interestingly I too worked on MDM systems about ten years ago, when I was at IBM Research. Ironically, one of my first ideas for applying machine learning was in de-duplication of data in an MDM server. However the technology was a bit too

When you do a fork in a loop, the child process wakes up in the same loop.

I did this inadvertently in the 80s on an Encore Multimax, a parallel computer base don NS 32k processors. I was writing a parallel program in assembly that had to call fork() in a loop to spawn a few child processes. I did not realize that

I really like your point of this being "associational learning". There is a lot more to intelligence than just learning associations

What a great idea! I have been using a text to UML sequence diagram tool and this seems to be very much along the same lines.

Not really until language understanding improves substantially. All of the chatbot kits that I’m familiar with discard the bulk of the information in the user’s first utterance.

Even the best attempts at task-oriented dialog currently using purely ML techniques are pathetically bad. Having worked in the field for a while, one thing that I have observed is that chatbots simply discard the bulk of the useful informat
