I'm sorry to sound pessimistic, but I don't think that there's any technical solution to dirty data. The problem is usually not "This data was sent as a JSON without any schema and with syntax errors", it's &

>They'll try to separate the brands I'm pretty sure they will, and they already have a lot of experience doing that. It's incredible how many people in this topic mention "PornHub", but not "MindGeek".

Just because there's not a "right way" doesn't meant that there aren't a lot "of wrong ways" ;) Actually, some years ago I bumped into a similar problem to the one discussed, where someone wanted to use NL

At first I thought "What's the big deal? You also remove the query from recommender systems, for example. It's an obvious uninteresting result!". But then I read the linked article [Nissim 2019] and it all became much cl

This seems like a nice use case for virtual credit cards with a very strict limit (just create one with $5).

While I agree that parents should never give their credit card to their kids[1], note that this is not the case in some examples from the article: > It was on his own phone and he managed to [...] enter his own children's bank card

From my experience, for long-tail queries, DDG also a lot more NSFW results than Google. Bing does have the reputation of being better for NSFW searches than Google, so I guess that it's normal to have more NSFW false positives as well

I'm not very familiar with cryptocurrencies, but wouldn't you be able to also crack crypto wallets? If so, wouldn't the value of crypto go down to 0 thanks to your service?

You could use something like Gnutella[1], where you flood the network with your query request and that request is then passed along nodes. Unfortunately (IIRC and IIUC how Gnutella works), malicious actors can easily break that query schema

Not OP, but I love the composite output. I have a raspberry with retroarch connected to an old CRT and an arcade stick. Old arcade games with a lot of dithering just don't look the same on an LCD. (Some emulators now come with some dec

I think understand the advantages of using a vector clock instead of a timestamp and the advantages of a bloom clock vs vector clocks. But since a bloom clock can sometimes return an incorrect order of events (false positives), wouldn'

I don't know much about CT, but I believe that if you want to work with Higher Kinded Types, you'll keep going back to ideas related to CT (functors, endofunctors, natural transformations...). I'm not sure if taking a course

I don't think that this is a targeted attack. Seems more like a way of showing "I got access to 5493973 passwords and to show that, instead of picking some random users, I'll pick the one responsible for the shoddy security&q

Regarding the other replies, I believe that Firefox is extremely slow in OS X only if you use a scaled resolution. That seems to be a known issue, but for some reason it's taking a long time to be solved.

My Master thesis supervisor had a fun trick for this, that can be used not only on on NNs, but also on other classifiers: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1011.3177.pdf The gist is, you train a single classifier that will work as

Amazing project. I just submitted a local radio station. Since this is in the front page, I guess that you'll be overwhelmed with the number of new submissions, though. :)

Based on the difficulties I had implementing recommender systems, I think it boils down to two main problems: 1. Evaluating recommender systems is REALLY hard. When it comes to evaluation, recommender systems are very different from other m

I think that the young generation might still relate to this story. Hacks have changed, but they still exist. The difference is that now, instead of looking for a particular CPU instruction, you'll look at hidden instructions in you JI

It's a joke. Since you "can't benchmark" the new Intel patch, ad networks would need to block that IP range, therefore OP would never see ads. Ad-blocking at the legal-level.

I know this was intended as a joke, but exiting vim is now much easier than exiting emacs (IMO), assuming that the user has some experience with UNIX and uses `Ctrl+C` to exit most programs. If I start vim and press `Ctrl+C` I get an helpfu

Make sure that your talk fits the timeslot. I find it helpful to go train the whole talk with a metronome (at a slowish tempo) to have an upper bound on how much time the talk will take.
