Thank you. I will definitely try the key only. That should reduce probing. Presence will still be there, but if it completely deters probing that will be good enough. I looked at fail2ban, but it seemed like a losing battle with botnet

Author here. Just wanted to get some feedback on this. It's a simple proof of concept, not meant for production code. I found several similar techniques, but none exactly the same. Short version: Client and server share a key. Each

If the company is private then employees exercising options generally (always?) have clauses that restrict them from selling that stock whether they are accredited investors or not. Not a lawyer, but I think there may be two reasons: 1) pre

It is absolutely mind blowing to me that you can purchase that amount of storage with 20% to spare for around $500 these days. 12TB, $498 : http://www.amazon.com/Red-Desktop-Hard-Disk-Drive/dp/B00LO3K...

I agree that some form of evolutionary algorithm will be our path to intelligent software (or a component of it). However, as genetic algorithms are currently implemented I would say the following analogy holds neural_net:brain::evolutiona

Good question. In 2013 they hit 0.5 pflops (0.5*10^15) by putting together 26,496 cores in one of their data centers. So I expect they have scaled proportionally and would be around 1-1.5 pflops. That would put them at #50-80 on top500.o

Off by a few orders of magnitude. Tihane-2 hit 33 pflops or 3.3*10^16 flops or approx 1/3 of the upper bound. Brain simulation is a snag, but it isn't our only snag. Like you said, it's a general algorithm issue. We do not re

I believe it considering 2006-2008 was when all the deep learning pieces came together (some parts were decades old, some 5 years, some 2 years). Google's main push in ML is with deep learning. Although, I would like to see the source

Very interesting question and worth an experiment or two. Personally, I don't think it would help because the patterns are complex and it is an internal representation. It would be like feeding it a hash values and labelling them &quot

AWS Snowball is a play on AWS Glacier. Glacier is the slow moving practically frozen storage system. Snowball takes the same stuff and hurls it rapidly to a destination. Pretty slick.

Ah. Good point. I expected dpkg to handle data blobs that were allowed to be moved into specific locations. I guess that would make post install configs impossible.
