I increasingly think something like this is the way. You can only get money out of politics by putting money into politics. We have to align incentives correctly, and money is the way to do it. Nobody would every run a business where they p

This is an interesting take, I do see the value. If I was trying to prevent this type of aliasing, I'd have the compiler throw an error if there were two aliased variables names (xyz and XYZ for example), rather than merging them autom

You do get a warning, though. And most Rust projects I've seen usually adhere to 0 warnings.

This is crazy from the perspective of "old fashioned binaries", but less so in the context of neural networks. You can do all sorts of splicing and dicing of the bits in neural networks (their weights) and end up with useful netwo

Could we make paying a ransom in these settings illegal? That would guarantee that ransomware was no longer economically tenable.

I like this idea and have been thinking about a similar instrument that is also a bit simpler. I call it US Equity, and the goal is the same: align interests to the long term, rather than short term, and also prevent outside money from corr

I've been thinking about this. There's two reasons people don't want to pay for free things: one, obviously, because they don't want to spend money; but, two, because there's friction associated with signing up to p

Amazon is certainly in the lead in terms of total locations. All of their locations are stores they own, however. The race right now is to show this tech working in existing stores, with a fairly light (aka scalable) install process. We hav

Jordan from Standard here. We absolutely believe that retailers will prefer to get this new technology from providers like us as opposed to Amazon, their biggest competitor. So far Amazon has also not shown their technology deployed in an e

This is my philosophy as well. Start by touring the forest quickly, then go back to appreciate the trees. When learning technical material, the first pass means skipping any exercises.

Depends on the problems, but in many situations yes. For PDE's you can plug in the proposed solution and calculate the error. Usually you'd do this in a discretized version of the PDE, but since neural nets are symbolically differ

Do you have any literature on this specific application and why it's challenging? In my head (super simplified) I would just have both institutions sign the hash of the transaction appended to the hash of the head of the transaction lo

(Jordan from Standard here) This is a fair initial take, and we should clarify why we think we're improving the social experience. A big part of why Lyft or Uber feels different than taking a cab is that there's no transactional p

We were initially unsure that we could achieve high accuracy with overhead cameras only. It's definitely not immediately obvious that it should be feasible, and we weren't convinced until we arrived at a working solution (and a wo

Jordan from Standard here. The overhead camera approach is definitely more challenging. We've been able to achieve high accuracy nonetheless. The proofs in the pudding though, of course, which is why we opened a store in SF last month!
