You're just conflating issues here. Nobody disagrees that Facebook is behaving in a scummy way. People simply think it's weird to complain about an endless stream of FB messages when the solution is in plain sight.

This is very simplistic. There is a lot more to consider in potential M&A than just raw numbers. Cultural fit, how it changes relationships with other suppliers, laws and regulations, management, etc. I'm not persuaded the current

This is your first comment in 1.75 yrs and we have no reason to trust you; your testimonial is unconvincing, unfortunately.

Most people call it "attractive" and it is 100% a factor in hiring.

A shame. It's missing too many features I'm interested in but it's definitely the nicest looking "flagship" Android phone imo

Weird, I was just looking for something like this. Have you seen scrollldit? Both that and this are missing the ability to go back to the comments though

The key is that Google's business model is not built on people that are behaving illegally. Google would obviously still exist if rehab scammers and other bad actors didn't. Given this, I find your call for Google to reassess it

Don't you worry that removing the biggest competition will de-incentivize Téo Taxi from providing such an experience?

Academics would love it if they didn't have to do that. Society's undervaluation of academic research has led to this situation.

Thanks for clarifying, that makes much more sense. So you're basically asking a chicken-or-egg kind of question. Do candidates succeed because of money or do they get money because they are perceived to be likely to succeed? Certainly

I don't think that's what it's entirely about. It's way more efficient for people to eat plants than meat. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_flow_(ecology)

what an odd response. We care because it suggests very strongly that money is important in winning elections. What is your point here? That it doesn't guarantee success?

I don't see the article arguing that all maps should be replaced with this visualization. It's a much better map for certain tasks. Of course you lose information by throwing out geography.

Hopefully your competitor would have told you anyway. But wow, didn't think this actually happens. Plus, why print out the letter??

What? What employer has ever looked at a potential hire's homework? If you don't grade exams but grade homework, then homework just becomes a take-home exam...

by bllguo 9y ago
That's a strong counterargument. But I strongly believe homework shouldn't be graded. Incentives are completely misaligned; you're penalized for getting things wrong, when that's a natural result during the learning proc

I had a different experience at an Ivy, but I'm not rich. Wouldn't say arrogant either, although I should probably leave that up to others to judge. My point is that "rich" and "arrogant" are key words here. Su

Hm. Care to qualify your statement? What do textbooks get wrong about money creation?

Are there non-cynical explanations of how someone with such a terrible track record gets hired? Maybe a dearth of alternative CEOs? Or is the reality as bad as it appears?

I expected more Musk-style fearmongering but the article is actually quite reasonable. Ethical concerns in machine learning are real. It's hard to see a solution here though. What kind of watchdog could stop me from building an algorit

When Google does the same with Open Markets they are denounced as evil. Amazon? The response is comparatively muted. Just another example of "the power of Jeff Bezos," or hypocrisy and inconsistent standards?

You're clearly being intentionally provocative. I don't even know what you're railing against. Vaccinations have basically eradicated many diseases in the Western world. Certainly if these people were vaccinated a hep outbrea

this seems overly simplistic. Surely the concentration of such offensive content is higher on Gab than on tumblr, twitter, facebook, etc. And intent should matter as well, no?

The algo learned about the underlying rules of its environment - the physics - by watching video. Imagine applying this to more complex games, and then to the real world (the ultimate game!). Cool approach; to me it seems to really resemble

That is extremely disingenuous of you. He's being downvoted for his massive arrogance.

Huh. Why do you single out phones as a data source? That seems like a weird statement to make. Neural nets are in vogue because everyone has a phone?
