   Whatever reason, this practice needs to die in a fire.

   Maybe off topic, but if anyone from NordVPN is reading this: for the love of god fix your iOS and OS X clients, so they don't log out randomly. I can't even begin to describe how frustrating that is.

   Indeed, cloud+dedicated infrastructure is really cheap after certain load/volume, compared to pure GCE/AWS. I have been using k8s with Hetzner for 6 months now, with dirt-cheap SSD/NVMe storage and 1080 GPUs. Can't recom

   I'm just curious - why do I primarily see Chinese researchers publishing deep learning stuff on arXiv? Is it subsidized over there? Just look at the publications linked in this thread so far, 2/3 are from Beijing.

   Well shit, I was just writing up a huge post exposing the guy on Reddit, and I've noticed that the scenes and timings in the video did not match with what I have downloaded. Turns out, Mark himself has already admitted that 2 scenes we

   I've had the same thought when I first saw it. Some suspicious things: thieves talking to themselves, that lady throwing the box into her own garbage bin, zero attempt at disassembly or closer inspection of the box, no police involved.

   Same here. Looks to me like it can even indicate 2 different states.

   Deep work. Not a huge time investment, but an indispensable skill or revelation I wish I had before starting college. Think I've found the book here on HN: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25744928-deep-wor

    Hey, I've been using Rancher for a year, and I love it. Just wanted to bring your attention to a YouTube channel from Rancher Labs, where "Learning Rancher" videos are posted regularly. But the content is all the same: boring

    I love Stripe as well, but one thing keeps me wondering - why do their bank payouts take so long? My company is based in Norway, and I see funds arriving a week after they are marked "on the way to your bank". Money get sent like

    Woah, did not know that. Thank you sir! Time to migrate my personal mail I guess.

    I second this. Their service was exceptional for 3+ years I've been with FastMail. Got many small businesses I've worked with to migrate. Only thing which annoys me is that their push-enabled iOS app does not support multiple acco

    Woah, that would be $80k to process my dataset. I'll try renting hardware instead.

    I've tinkered with face recognition in the past days, and am now waiting for a response to my GCE quota request for a V100 GPU. $8/h rate for a preemptible instance seems really cheap, yet I am not sure if I will ever be able to p

    I've recently paid for a code signing cert from Comodo, and I'm still stuck in the process. In order to verify your company phone number, it has be shown in any of the links like : (www.dnb.com) or (www.hoovers.com) including loc

    There is a chat group in Telegram, called "BitGrail Trollbox". It doesn't have a direct link, but one can join when searching the group name through client application. The Bomber dude is there, and it seemed like there is a

    Thanks, I've enjoyed it a lot, strange how I haven't heard about Adam Curtis earlier. When I watched it, I've had a similar feeling as that during the first semester of philosophy class - things I've noticed and ideas I&

    Love stuff like that! I've quickly wrapped a prettifier for S3 xml listings in a userscript, so you can use it with Tampermonkey Beta. Tested on Chrome under OS X. https://gist.github.com/kaivi/8114cbc2080da78d67c9

    I'd like to set it up as a subscription service like Domaintools. I'm also crawling and storing user's comments, friends, posts and links to media published in other groups. It will make a great tool for profiling a person, b

    I'm hoarding profile data diffs from a well known social network. Been crawling every single user for the past 2 years and saving the changes. Had to stop doing it last month, after storage costs became too much.

    Looks like it does all kinds of tricks at once -- histograms, SIFT/SURF features and edge patterns. I was looking for a simpler solution, like an effective MVP-tree implementation for perceptual hashes. Wouldn't that be faster and

    This is all good, but how does one store, index and efficiently search for near matches? I have a side project with terabytes of photo URLs, and hashing&indexing them has been an itch I could not scratch.

    This makes me wonder: is it possible to submerge the antenna in a special fluid or powder and send some modulated current through it, so that said fluid hardens in form of a radiation pattern? We could then MR scan it and see the real patte
