Isn't this the exact thing that China has in law that is causing everyone to dump Huawei over?

These would be cool if the comments were embedded to make the page more accessible, rather than just screenshots (granted, there are links).

I've gotten this from ads in their normal search. I've been conditioned for years to trust that the search returns what I expect. Now when I instinctually click the first link, I end up with the wrong brand. My fault for not payin

If they're in China they probably don't have the luxury of bringing up those points in their argument.

I used blockchain in a project successfully, but it is not a distributed consensus application. My problem was file sharing. Torrent files send a big list of SHA1 hashes, one for each piece of the file. I replaced that idea with a single bl

This is great. I love that people are taking on the higher education space. During my masters I would take the uni's online courses that were of absolute garbage quality. I've gotten better content from Udemy for 45$. The only rea

I'm a pretty huge bitcoin critic because I view it from the problems that I want to solve. I want fast, low fee micro transactions and it doesn't serve that need. If you look at another perspective though, of people whose economie

The malware example would be you have limited sandbox space, so you have some first phase detections before doing the more expensive dynamic analysis. For mail classification you could use ML on non-spam messages and flag them as suspicious

I don't see anyone else talking about it. Around January 2018 it came out that China had hacked the African Union headquarters which it had built as a gift to the AU. [1] More recently, reports have come out that implicate Huawei in th

Usually ML is used as a first-phase classification. It's not a silver bullet but it can be a good signal for further inspection.

My bet has always been on Amazon, they have the weird partnership and integration. Would make sense for their cloud business too.

Some people enjoy doing more. I work at work, then I work at home on side projects. This does not have to mean I am dying from overwork. It is the same for exercise, am I trying to impress people or get attention? I don't think so, I&#

I agree, what I am saying is that Facebook feels like the right channel for information dissemination, not necessarily for driving traffic outside of Facebook. The paid acquisition I am trying is on Facebook, sorry if that wasn't clear

I always like to think of the counter case, but note, this is pure speculation. Could the CIA have planted a fake insecure communications system in order to execute key players in Iran's nuclear program? It would be a force-amplifying

I'm tinkering with paid acquisition right now and it's not very valuable. There are a lot of impressions but very few clicks. I think that is like a lot of Facebook though, people read the article headline but don't open it.

I put out my first game on Point at Infinity. My long term goal is to have a lot of games that are playable via API. I started with the classic slide puzzle. Feedback is appreciated!

It is a really interesting shift from throwing spies out of the country to criminally indicting them. I wonder if we will see similar indictments brought against US agents in the future.

I deleted my account and recently created a new one to try out selling a product through ads. We'll see if it can deliver commercial value to me. I know a lot of people find social value through chat on there, but it's really lack

I'm a celiac and it is pretty annoying to hear people suggest something is psychological or (as it is often put) placebo. What makes it a red flag that people want recognition for a condition? Does it make them snowflakes if they want
