I'm glad they're making inroads here, cause gesture and pose calculation and tracking is awesome. But.. it also seems like more usage of black-box magic math of Neural Networking. I'm glad it gets results and all, but it just

That's being rather obtuse. I can easily parse that the contents are encrypted to X keys. I'm thinking of something obvious like GPG here. I would accept the idea of a backdoor IFF the program encrypting hid the fact that it also

But that's explicitly not a backdoor. That's straight forward, "If permission is granted from 2 opposing parties, crypt can be reversed". And that would have to be added to the crypt on cyphertext creation. And the Bitco

Indeed. ML seems a great part, "Magic Function Machines". People make features that can be tracked, and more features, and more features. Then they splatter them against the wall, and hope for the best. The best, are things like &

Not really. Kubernetes is stupidly unstable. When I was testing it a while back, the master processes kept dying for no good reason and leaving half-on processes with no networking. And then you get to restart everything. Yay. Whereas if Ku

Too true that Mesos isn't a drop-in replacement. Far from it. There is quite a lot of complexity as well in Mesos.. But looking at it, there are also less moving parts with Mesos compared to OpenStack. As a test, I set up a Mesos Clus

Indeed. That's also why Libel and Slander are an offense in England, even if it is true. Truth there, is no defense. I much prefer the truth as a defense idea, which goes against the strict interpretation of the UN's charter. And
