To be even more prepared: spin up two Digital Ocean Shadowsocks servers in case one gets throttled down (which happens after extensive usage). I often combine this with ExpressVPN as well, which still works in China (although many are scept

For what it's worth, the concept of land ownership is a pretty fluid concept in all countries. USA for example, has the concept of Eminent domain ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eminent_domain#United_States ): >

Very well said. Edit: feel like I should clarify a bit to avoid the "me too +1" style comment. I've been torn in recent months between fast.ai's great hands on and to the point style of teaching (which I think is great a

Exactly, this is everything that I hate about requirements management and requirements-driven-development in a nutshell. Way too often it just means: "we're actually too lazy / overworked / uninterested / have targe

Me too, and it wouldn't surprise me if a deal was struck: go for peace, you'll remain a buffer and own state. We'll support you and will be able to push investments into your country. Capitalism with socialist characteristics

I wasn't claiming that he isn't right. That is exactly the point: he is right/correct in all his answers, but the questions are not specific/technically informed enough.

The point about "not selling data to advertisers" and how Facebook is so totally different was so cringy. Just one follow-up question was needed: if I take out 100 ads microtargeting users, what happens then?

Great to see ML "governance" work being done on the training-part of the pipeline. Seems like this provides a Domino Data Labs based dashboards but without the walled garden environment. I've yet to see similar great initiati

About a year ago, a sales guy from SAS came to give a talk about Viya at our uni. They even brought a data scientist (whom I believe was actually a smart kid and feeling uneasy about being dragged into a sales pitch). Traditionally, SAS has

Every time some OR or constraint programming language comes up, Håkan Kjellerstrand is an obligatory mention. He has a whole page dedicated to problems and examples for those, including MiniZinc: http://www.hakank.org/minizi

Except that here it's kind of frightening to see the quality standards that are being followed (or rather: not followed) when putting up all of this housing, especially in non tier one areas. Housing gets build. Stays empty. After a fe

No, this is pretty expected. All the script kiddies are scanning port 22 and nothing else. Recently I made the mistake of changing a root password (I know, SSH root acc ss, bad idea) to a dictionary word. In 1 minute the system was penetrat

Totally agree. For someone who is pretty busy and doesn't have much time for gaming, the current VR experience is simply too cumbersome, especially if you don't have a dedicated space for it. I own both a Vive and Rift, and apart

This is very interesting! How far does the 'missing generalization' impact go? I.e. your Nalgene grammar file (nice reference, didn't know about Nalgene) is used to generate both flat input strings and nested desired outputs,

Sure! At one point, some group of volunteers also created a spin off project with the aim of putting more focus on creating a whole web interface around the concept, but I think it's inactive now. I try to maintain this repo from time
