And apparently consumers also want to pay higher upkeep for that lift... Every SUV I looked at consumes about 10-15% more gas than the equivalent station wagon - this is bonkers, even when looking at pure economics. But hey, it's a car

Yeah. Did you actually try calling someone with any 2 of these clients?

Hey, thanks a lot, those clients look really quite great (and polished). Still, if you look at movim you imho experience the problem of the whole open XMPP-ecosystem. Somehow nobody cares for getting other people to support their features a

well, I'm open to client suggestions (and to public servers, where I can try them out too). I was told by Google (tm) that gajim should be one of the most feature-complete clients on the desktop. tried it with conversations on the phon

So I want: - multiuser chat (persistent) - voice-calls (let's have them 1on1) - file-transfer - concurrent clients Which mature clients and servers should I choose from, implementing all this (basic) stuff?
939.
by fock 8y ago
+1 and arguably the concurrent clients + multiuser thing is something which XMPP did never get around really. There are at least a dozen or so XEPs which noone is implementing (except for Conversations) which make basic functionality a mess

Thanks a lot. But sadly this looks a lot like all the other filemanagers which are opensource. Lots of click here, click there that termux is probably just as useful. Probably some one with an interest in UI comes up here (don't know m

Do you have some pictures of the UI (which is arguably the worst thing about most OS file managers for android)? From the spec-sheet this looks great!

Maybe better lower corporation taxes and concurrently raise the tax on earnings, because most of the big, old corps are not really driven by people wanting to expand their knowledge but by people wanting to squeeze out a little more cash (m

At least (s)he's realizing that (s)he has no idea. Most of the non-math/non-statistics (probably even some of the CS) people don't do that and just apply some ML-algorithm out of a tutorial on their data.

Not talking about high impact journals (where the majority of papers does not end up, when everyone is expected to publish twice a year...). Also I think cherrypicking your ML training data to achieve a certain result is akin to faking res

If you think the current process does, you either are in a very good environment or are plainly lying to yourself. I could just add some bits here and there, get excellent results and publish. Probably nobody will notice as it won't be

A tool called Mathematics which can exactly describe this interactions. And if those processes have a lot of variables, a ML-model might certainly be useful, but it will never be generally applicable! This probably also contributes to &quo

no, but using ML for what is basically regression and then telling everyone who asks: "I don't know, how it works, it's advanced ML" is "using it like a black box"

I know. But basically at this point I'd say that a large portion of the academic output is crap even in "hard" science. Also when looking at experiments (did that too in a lab course, where I got data from an existing apparat

Having been subject to a lot of buzzword-blarers over the last term I'd say that you just tell everybody that you are working the foundations of what all the other people are doing if they ask, what makes you special. If you can back i

I think you got the point. A lot of people don't seem to realize that ML might be great for finding patterns but will never yield scientific knowledge in the sense of cause-reaction sense. Unfortunately everyone thinks he can use it fo

Yeah, as most people here wrote already, it's statistics. And your models will yield those statistics... Unfortunately if you're an engineer/physicist/chemist/biologist/social-scientist your background in stati

How does this work when one is in a private network, where you can't advertise/remember your location easily? Seems like in the end you still need some servers to rely on to federate. Pleasantly surprised I found no mention of blo

I understand why companies directed specifically at people not using the "normal" services end up as bastion of idiots, but with mastodon I think most of the flagship instances take a stance in this and block such things, see for

Totally successful for private profits in general. Less so for the public, which wants a given infrastructure without having to pay out the investors (which are investing into a private venture and thus of course are entitled a higher rewar

This. I would argue that Chrome seems faster (probably proprietary tech on most sites), but with µBlock, this is gone and there's no ads.

Typical GOOG move. Add some code, break the web outside the Google way. Why can't those guys write an RFC "Content sublocator-protocol for diverse media"... Well, I started writing this and read your answer. This is not a pro
