Thanks for this perspective, I think it's a shame you were down-voted for providing it.

This is basically an advertisement for this product. Probably a press release copy-pasted.

I don't think it ever was the _highest_ good. It may be argued that it has moved around the hierarchy, and it may in fact not be at an all time high, but there were always things which we (society) put above liberty.

I haven't yet read this one, so it is certainly possible.

Yeah but why shy away from the fact that any of us could randomly die at any moment? It may not be pleasant to think about, but it's true. And important to be plan for in critical systems.

Well, browsers are trying to fix this with graphical clues. Right now, all parts of the url apart from ".ycombinator.com" are grey in my url bar.(using Firefox)

although data.gov.pl exists, and even presents a valid cert, it has no content. The place with the data is: https://danepubliczne.gov.pl/en/# (website is being terribly slow for me right now)

Interesting that this seems to be very liberally licensed under Apache v2.

Has anyone tried running this? I wonder how long does the training take.

Is there any information about the license of these samples? Should I treat them like wiki content and assume CC Attribution?

by mnx 8y ago
Yes, but it's a pretty bad experience - it has no js, so you need to keep refreshing the page. But yeah, I've used it on occasion.

I wonder what other legacy, potentially useful features lurk behind user-agent gates. For example, you can get messages to work on the mobile version of Facebook by switching to a very old user agent. Maybe I should just permanently switch

Well, duplicates are probably more likely to get created when the original question is not easy to find using some particular combination of keywords. So in that sense the duplicate is doing it's job.

This article is not very information rich, but one thing is clear: this is not a github leak, the code was just posted to github by whoever got access to it. So the headline is pretty misleading.

Could you explain what it means? I read about rhyming slang, but can't figure this out

Nice, but it crackles very hard on my machine, both on FF and chrome.

For full correctness, it should be "... anything by Steven Pinker, especially..."

Yeah, okay, but the candidates in those parliaments are still selected locally. It's just that the proportion is selected nationally.

by mnx 8y ago
Holy shit this is a good take. Can anyone recommend some article looking at attention from this perspective?

This would be really amazing.
