Is this literally transmitting radio frequencies through a vga converter dongle? How far does it go?

They seem to be adjusting lr between epochs as well when the loss explodes, not just runs. But I haven't read through the whole thing yet, maybe they trained the whole thing properly from start to finish at the end. Otherwise that woul

I've started reading from bottom and haven't read the whole thing yet. But their default action as stated in their log when face exploding gradients or unstable training is to just roll back a checkpoint and lower lr. Other propos

I'm surprised by how hacky the whole process is and how it's mostly just about tuning different hyperparameters

I had the same confusion before. I had frequently heard of money laundering and how casinos were frequently associated with it and thought it was something sophisticated. Unless I'm mistaken, it really is as simple as having a signific

Are you worried about it replacing you? Can't you use it as a new tool somehow?

Just out of curiosity, do you have a lot paid customers for this? It's clearly a useful tool but I'm just wondering whether there is a significant cohort that is interested in paying actually paying for value added services.

My impression is that it matters because if the data hasn't been collected with a specific purpose in mind, then its probably not gonna be useful for a lot of cases. Say I'm a farmer and for examples sake I want regular aerial ima

> I want more people to start application companies Are you aware of ways for a hypothetical start-up team to get cheap/affordable raw imagery data to attempt this? Instead of paying B2B prices upfront just for experimentation?

by ackbar03 5y ago
Bloomberg's main product offering is still the data feed though. The "application" part of it definitely makes it easier to use but a lot of trading desks build their own algorithms and pricers on top of that data for the fun

How plausible is this actually? The surface of the earth is huge and given the high-resolution close-to-realtime imagery that most people want, its not really possible to provide standardized sets of images that just happen to cover the reg

Is this even feasible? I imagine high resolution satellite imagery is a lot larger than your typical blog post or youtube video. Plus the surface of the earth is huge, if you push out everything 95% of it is probably irrelevant crap that do

Regarding small customers such as the real estate agents, attorneys, and cops etc. is it actually economically profitable to serve people like them? I know satellites are getting cheaper but there are still limits to the cost of targeted im

So you think most of them are purely drawn to the money? You think any of them actually thought "hey there might be something to this" after working on this stuff for some time? Just to be clear I don't really have a side. I&

I feel like there is a dichotomy amongst developers over crypto / web3 stuff. The HN crowd seems to hold a generally negative view on cyptocurrencies and web3 and view it as a bit of scam with no proper use case except to leave someone

Convergence usually means it takes place when something tends to infinity. So yes, if you do it an infinite number of times it does converge to 50%. But the concept of infinity itself is very abstract and is where most people tend to get ca

Traditional advice was you analyze potentially malicious binaries in a VM. I guess its more prudent now to do it on air-gapped systems?

While informative, I think it was mentioned in the book that Doudna was the one who asked him to write it about her, so I think it needs to be taken with a grain of salt. I thought isaacson did a pretty good job in trying to make it objecti

Is it inappropriate to say that I'm jealous your SaaS is good enough to be used by Russians for financial crime? I mean your gonna take this post down anyways right?

by ackbar03 5y ago
How do you deal with maintenence and stuff? Do you need on-site engineers? With SaaS you can just do it remotely but if it's on site you need to send someone over I guess

Anyone here that works on these kind of deep-dive type of security research? Can you give a TLDR of how do you usually set everything up to find these results? As in, do you set up some sort of test environment/website with full debug

I feel like. Job seeking / sourcing seems to be one of those problems that are never "solved" very well by tech. Does anyone have any idea or summary of why that is? just out of curiousity

How do you prove causation instead of correlation exactly?
