The article suggests "surpisingly popular"==correct answers from experts. It could just as easily be crazy answers from crazy people.

Does anyone know if there are binaries or even open source directories for the code on these machines? It's kind of lame that you'd likely need to buy one in order to tell if it's vulnerable to some type of attack, not to men

This algorithm is relatively well known. If I read right, the author is just implementing an older algorithm but switching the order of two steps for efficiency reasons. No it never generates crossroads. Despite saying the maze can be imper

People always have incentives to commit crimes. That's why police and prosecutors have to make good on threats to ensure their "best interests" line up with everyone else.

I really like the idea of this as a scaffold for collecting lipids for the first cell membranes. It seems likely to me that there would need to be some relatively simple compound responsible. The fact this is present in meteorites gives me

This is a sort of "gambit" that doesn't work because it assumes that all religion is created by humans. But most religions claim they are handed down directly from God, so the point would be moot. Of course anyone who thoug

I think the point the previous poster is making is not just a need or desire for a vague answer (i.e. the universe was created and no one really knows so maybe it was God), but then actually going from that step to believe every word of a h

Pure nonsense. Terror is not the same thing as economic sanctions. To suggest it's the same is to make language meaningless.

If you share a google doc to public, it does the same thing. This is at best a case of user confusion, but is hardly insecure. Photos aren't even mutable, so having continued access after you see it once isn't relevant.

No, there is no raw images (unless this version changed). The github repo shows that the AI takes an Observe action, and it essentially gets data on every unit it can see in a machine friendly format. The previous version got info on every

I'm pretty sure the AI can't see cloaked units, which is why it always built so many observers in the demo games.

Very curious how this is going to turn out... This sounds like they are trying to train a bot to actually not be perfect? Otherwise I think they would say straight out: "You'll only have the option if you are grand-master".

What is usually shown, time and time again, is that the voice assistants aren't secretly recording. They are triggered because they heard something that sounded like a hotword. Maybe you were talking about what dog you want you buy. So

So, you want Twitter to be both law enforcement, and the judicial system when determining if a government employee is breaking the law, and then preventing them from doing so? This is literally a case about federal law. Why would you hold T

I get it that this is a joke, but more seriously I'd argue most labor is "region locked". Likely to within a few dozen miles of where you live. It's actually fairly difficult to just buy labor from another region witho

The problem is that innocent people could go to jail because they fall into that 81% of incorrect matches. The justice system, at least in the USA, has a presumption of innocence. The idea being that when there isn't enough evidence, i

Put another way: they are saying that 81% of positive flags are actually false positives. Yikes. That might be better than random chance, but in the court of law that should hardly be considered evidence.

Agreed, the authors personal ability to make the phrases was not quite right. They also confuse the ability to have these attacked nouns, with the idea that they are equivalent to other sentences in meaning. I think it becomes clear things

Because adjectives come before nouns. The first word is almost always is a descriptor of the second word. A "pig flier" is clearly something that flies pigs, not a type of pig that flies.
