There exists a ternary if statement? foo = something() if sanity_check else None Can replace None with foo (or any other expression), if desired.

Some Linux distros are moving that way, particularly for the included Python/pip version. My Arch Linux already does so some years, and I do not set it up myself - so I think it is default.

It can also be good to get input from people that do not have any stakes, worries or agenda. Plus that have a wider ser of experience (collectively). Of course one should also discuss it inside the company.

DJing has a quite smooth learning curve, with easy entry point, and one can quickly become passable. However to build an active following on Twitch is still quite hard work. Maybe not difficult, but certainly seems like it requires persiste

Possibly via organic, physical, viral and direct marketing techniques. I would never try to compete with free. Probably not anything B2C at all, if I were to have avoid the surveillance capitalists as a constraint.

The PIO units can be a killer feature in some specialized cases. And not all the ESP32 variants have native USB, which can be a requirement. But generally I agree that ESP32 is the winner, for now.

I think privacy is very important. But a social network is definitely more so! And many have that via sports, for example. And if someone thinks it best to spend money on Netflix over Fastmail, I definitely am not gonna shame them and say &

You do not have to. But, there is a considerable cost to shying away from the dominant actors. Adding on top of the existing difficulties... But it probably can be done. It would be very interesting, especially in HN community, to build som

Having to choose between those things and privacy is definitely a money issue! It is not surprising that privacy looses in that case - it is opening up another huge can of worries. Entertainment is a source of relaxation, de-stressing as we

Yeah, just potential for gossip and slander type attacks, makes it same to not share everything. Our cloud services probably had the power to discredit or blackmail any user.

Only the data on what is being searched. Which is of course quite a lot. But it requires active effort to leak data that way. Many types of sensitive information is not natural to put there, say conversations with others or a diary. And oth

Most organizations do not spend any time even thinking about that, nor considering it in their decision processes, nor prepare for it. An organisation that do, will have an IT architecture. For example limiting exposure in the first place.

Advertisement has the purpose of trying to get money from you, or to make you change your mind on political issues. These things are worth protecting. Companies using your private information for such purposes is an attack.

I suspect we will get ML based "upsamplers" / enchancers / artifact removers, similar as we already have for images. That can be used to automatically post process. If they do not already exist?

As far as I understand, according to current copyright practices: If you sing a song that someone else has written, or pieces thereof, you are in violation. This is also the case of you switch out the instrumentation completely, say play tr

Interesting! Do you have any resources or tips on how startups / small companies can keep the ISO 27001 process lightweight? On a first scan, it seems that the amount of mandatory processed and documents is quite high...

The mapping from geometry and back to definition (code) is pretty weak in tools like OpenSCAD/CadQuery, compared to a parametric solid modeler like FreeCAD/Fusion360. It is a very indirect manipulation, and requires people to &quo

This is one of the best resources out there for audio DSP+ML. While it is focused on music, it is also highly relevant to other audio such as speech environmental sounds etc.

You can estimate it empirically. However large changes in model parameters/capacity tends to interact with hyperparameters, so would want to do runs with multiple values of hyperparameters. And training processes give noisy results, so

Several years of ML research for CNNs indicate at least that one can do very well with 8 bit integers. Such quantization is basically standard now for any deployment outside of GPU (where 8bit isn't any faster anyway due to the hardwar

Yes, why do it? :p I mean, there are pros and cons - costs and benefits. And I can see both scenarios where it is better to spend the time on something else (that has better chance of bringing in money), and cases where it would be the righ
