I hope a Firefox extension comes out to automatically block visiting any website that blocks EU users in general, regardless of whether you are in the EU. I would use it.

Yeah, I am pretty certain you're not right in this understanding. I am not the most knowledgeable, but basically all I know is scientific computing, so here are my two cents: Any C-like language does not use the "vector" as

What do you mean by "TensorFlow is a subset of general purpose computing, and thus will always be limited to niches"? It's not clear to me at all what one could mean by this. Doesn't TensorFlow have to use matrix math de

It seems that you do not know how the Civil List works, and why there was controversy about it in the last decade, and why it finally got tweaked into the "Sovereign Grant". Furthermore, it seems to me that you do not know about t

Thanks for pointing me to well sourced wiki article, as it mostly confirms the couple of opinion screeds from anti-monarchists. See reference 5 (I'll assume you know where it comes up): http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi&#

Landfills are not sustainable, and are best used as a stop gap measure. It might seem like we have lots of easily accessible empty land right now, but eventually easily accessible land is going to become harder to find. It seems that it wou
