I believe Adnan is factually guilty. Undoubtedly there were significant procedural failures and biases that played into his conviction, and those are a black mark on the justice system. But today is a tragedy for Hae Min Lee's family.

Why did I just watch that again. I knew it was going to be pure cringe, but I clicked it anyway.

Ethereum contracts 'enforce' integrity the same way (but better) as escrowed down payments on housing purchases 'enforce' integrity - they allow a consequence if one or both parties do not fulfill the terms. They can als

That is pretty amazing, thanks. It makes me oddly nostalgic for a summer sitting in front of the orange glow of that terminal computer.

My very first job when I was 16 was helping Canada Post move data from their old VAX mainframe system into SAP. This was over 21 years ago. The answer to the second part of the title question is: because it is now so deeply entrenched in hu

The images do not. The output of the trained / weighted correlations do.

Using github for visual diffs is also great, just by exporting a PNG into the repo.

I genuinely applaud any file format that can be diffed, but skidl seems like an absolutely painful way to develop a circuit - unless you already have a schematic (which seems redundant). Freerouting seems like a good way to iterate quick so

They are not referring to the same kind of physical (or even Euclidean) dimensions you are inferring. They are talking about connectivity and vectors.

circuitlab.com is great for simple designs. Not as powerful as some SPICE simulators, but amazingly convenient.

This is a fun reminder that a MOSFET is useful as a transistor, a diode, and a capacitor.

Thanks. I think this summary helps clarify the statement in the title.

I had the same experience, submitted a PR to Roslyn, was asked to add some additional unit tests, and was merged within days.

Yay, queries with random predicates and no index planning! A recipe for DBA success.

Well put, my thoughts exactly! I really wish we returned to brut (raw) web pages in general. Without JS, SPAs, etc.

While certainly not a customary staple, it is commonly available here (and delicious). Marmite and PB on toast, yum.

Over the next decade, ML advancements will erode the monetary value of countless professions. Hopefully AI research will be turned towards solving the problems of society/economics/civilization before it is too late to avoid maj

I think there is an easy exclusion to be made for these types of 'too lazy to type a url' type searches (or 'weather' which is similar in getting a specific piece of data).

Interesting. I write a lot of code that deals with graphs in engineering data (pipelines, circuits, etc.). And typically I use the somewhat reverse logic to this, which is having 'hyper' vertices, i.e. a vertex can be a grouping o

It seems to me that the argument is kind of silly. The "Chinese Room" has failed to account for the actual processes of the system. The 'spoken response' is only a small part of the 'program' of a mind; the res

You know in the Matrix how human's are the batteries? Well "Meta" is powered in a similar way, except it is your basic humanity (emotions, attention, engagement, self perception) that they drain to keep the lights on.

Facebook and it's ilk are one of the most addictive forces ever conceived. It's hard enough to change significantly embedded habits, nearly impossible when those behaviours are expertly designed and continually refined to be as pe

While I think this is awesome (from the perspective of audio production pipelining requirements), I can't really see the need to use a VST to apply basic audio alterations for the stated ML purpose, since there are already many native

It's not so much the fact that an issue occurred, but rather the fact that this type of issue can occur at all. They have coupled nagware into the core of the OS.

Seriously, "both sides of the aisle"? One side is saying "Here is categorical evidence of an issue", the other side is saying "the other side are demons and the sky is green.". There is no middle ground if one

If not an actual John McCracken piece, then likely heavily inspired by the artist. Beautiful!

It's unreadable because the proper use of adverbs gives context. If the adverb "succinctly" was not flagged by this ridiculous app, the sentence would sound natural.

Different approaches for different aspects. For discipline calculation sheets, there is not much other than having a basic file-level version control and validation engines for importing the data. For other areas, I have built pipelines tha

I work in mega project engineering (O&G, mining, etc.) where it is absolutely frightening how much data is generated via cobbled-together spreadsheets with unverifiable calculations and no change tracking. Excel is a nightmare to me.
