I’ve read it had died off in the past and recovered afterwards. This had happened 5 times in the past 30000 years, From that it would logically follow that recovery is possible, just not for these particular specimens. Additionally, it’s ha

And that, in short, is why I prefer really freakin' old languages for doing real work.

I'm not sure any problems would be fixed. The way things are now, politicians in the house/senate have to always worry about re-election, and at least create visibility of catering to their electoral base in the run-up to that. If

I don’t provide citations for such obvious things. If you’re interested, you can find the origin story as written by Guido himself in Python FAQ using any of the available search engines.

Even in its present state, Jupyter is strictly better than plain REPL, especially if you need visualization. It's like Python in general: it was not designed to write 10-100KLOC programs. Python was designed for scripting. Jupyter was

It was also a "fact", in the times of Galileo, that Earth is in the center of the universe and the Sun rotates around it. But that might be too ancient, so how about another: before the 80's there was "scientific consens

It’s a gag car. Bloomberg should know better.

That’s an incredibly naive and narrow view. In most of life’s circumstances “facts” can’t even fully be established, and are better referred to as “strong beliefs”. And the definition of “hate” depends on perspective as well as varies over

Could you expand a little on the notion of “correct values”?

MCU in the case of braking and steering is “micro controller unit”.
43.
by h4b4n3r0 8y ago
You don’t need an OS for that.

by h4b4n3r0 8y ago
Nah. No way the mcu responsible for braking would run an OS

There’s no concept of “reboot” with MCUs, since there’s usually no OS. Likewise there’s usually no concept of segfault, because segfault requires memory protection which is something most MCUs don’t use.

Proud of what, though? It's basically a 2-piece hololens that doesn't have any software. This stuff won't take off until field of view is fully immersive. In Magic Leap (and hololens) it's not.

The point is, you might end up with compute throughput _substantially_ worse than raw fp32. No one will take that tradeoff.

I hope someone from NTSB reads this. This is an incredibly damaging bit of info, if true.

Hence the “all things being equal” qualification.

Sure. I’m just saying worker pay issue is largely orthogonal to stock buybacks or tax cuts. It’s not like, all things being equal, the revenue would be spent on workers anyway.
51.
by h4b4n3r0 8y ago
But worker pay won’t go up unless there’s a shortage of workers. This is orthogonal to worker pay.

Seems like a waste to tape something out and not make it generally available. Might as well make some money.

It’s as though Intel is being sabotaged from inside. Delays with 10nm, suspicious exit of Krzanich, harebrained unenforceable licensing schemes. My next machine will use Threadripper and this kind of shit just seals the deal.

It’s not just meat, a couple other things cause severe schizophrenia as well: notably, climate change and capitalism.

And therein lies a valuable lesson: don't be employee #1 if you don't know the founders personally, or can otherwise make sure they have a good track record.

Another cool thing one could build on the moon is a rail cannon to bombard Earth. Moon's gravity well makes it relatively easy to hurl stuff from there to here, and the stuff _accelerates_ as it approaches Earth, assisted by earth grav

What makes YUYV more efficient is downsampling. You represent 2 pixels with 4 bytes instead of 6 due to the loss of spatial color information. If there's no downsampling, and there exists a transform between RGB and a given color space

Pretty much. And also, models almost never operate on full-size image, and if you e.g. pixel bin a bayer image you will get a de-mosaiced image, so that's not very interesting. What is interesting is, it'd be pretty cool to train

by h4b4n3r0 8y ago
For DL the colorspace is irrelevant as long as it's consistent between training and inference. I.e. if you train your model in RGB, it better be receiving RGB and not something else from the video feed or input images. Interestingly, m

Ain’t nothing wrong with memcached itself.
