Is it just me or is the term leaker politically charged in the context. For me, Snowden is a whistle blower not a leaker. There's a reason why he revealed secretes (he also didn't just release them, but was very careful how much h

No, a coup in South Vietnam happened, that lead to starting the war. They were not invaded. Not arguing about the sovereign nation part, yet I recommend you read up a bit on the history (maybe not only US history books). vietnam war domino

Maybe off topic ... Is Stanford ML expert some type of accreditation? How do you become a Stanford ML expert? :) Attending the (excellent) Stanford ML online course on Machine Learning or do I have to read an ML book on Stanford Campus?

In hypotheticals I would agree with you. Yet, at the time of the writing of that article, the data from several countries regarding COVID 19 were in, and we have an indication on what metrics work to limit deaths. We also see what we could

Scientist should hold themselves to the highest ethical standards. The article seems to defend an article and opinion that sees economic consequences are more dangerous than human lives lost to COVID-19. In terms of scientific discourse, th

I just downloaded a-shell so still playing with it. What I love about Blink is that it supports mosh and it includes tunnels, ssh-agent etc. out of the box (no need to install anything). It seems very well polished for the purpose of remote

It's free and opensource on github (if you register as developer for apple). Edit: spelling error

Completely agree, yet I think this should be reflected in the article. From the limited exposure I had with children on the spectrum, I didn’t see many that could actually wear a google glass to use it as described in the article. I also do

See this is the problem a lot of children on the spectrum don't know how to react (or will react in an atypical fashion) ... You need to train interactions (and changes in emotions during communication). There might be something usefu

Therapists that worked 10 -20 years in the field are maybe better than some tech that's not even thoroughly evaluated? Sorry that made me chuckle. Check some of the videos. The children I saw in the workshops (who played Shakespeare at

Sorry, it might have been a misleading example. Yet, for me Goedel showed actually the impact of the field equations of Einstein. Still I don't like the narrative of the genius ... It takes a lot of intelligent people to create sth.

Don’t understand the downvote. for a hacker it seems Tesla is a much more interesting and sympathetic figure than Edison. Also I don’t like putting emphasis on individual people ... the genius of Edison is also related to the genius of othe

Not sure I can take him too serious. I have now 3 laptops from purism (2 old 13” and one 15” ). they are great. He’s mostly talking about the phone project (which is hard). Don’t know about Purism, yet have friends who worked with/on J
