literally within minutes of you writing, my comments against ICOs and showing doubt and criticism in crypto/blockchain were downvoted.

God! I couldn't stop reading this it was so entertaining but it's also similar to my experience. The type of jobs where the incompetence of your superiors creates the absence of responsibility due to the sheer number of hierarchia

I think it's one of those sunk cost fallacy. Because you put your reputation and social credit as collateral for a large expected return, you have no choice but to keep living the lie. Like that aussie dude who keeps telling people he

Why are there so many ex-convicts in this ICO/crypto space? Like literally, a huge chunk of these so called ICO investors and founders have very shady pasts. Why isn't anybody calling people out on this? Why do we have criminals b

Good luck because you won't find an ico that is not a security aimed at swindling teachers, baristas and other innocent people. The % of 'Good ICO' is very very small, if non existant. It turns out nobody wants to do an ICO u

how is it ignorant to suggest amerikkka has a racist past and it's still being pushed today as you've described casually. So blacks and hispanics are not villified at all in your view? being grouped into economic apartheid that is

why does america systematically discriminate minorities? ex. media emasculates/villifies minority men while fetishizing minority women.

meh, I've given up. At the end, it's whatever your client wants and will ultimately pay for. React is popular in enterprise circles, Vue.js is also popular amongst new front end developers and seasoned. In a few years it won'

Probably not far off. We might get to a point where we have an AI software that can run on any computer which will entertain us to eternity. Combined with VXGI and other photo realism efforts, AI could produce any permutation of your favori

yeah, basically I wanted to release some stuff I've been working on using similar format.

Well i hope that http://js.fo will be that as i add more aiml libraries although currently focused on web area. I hope to expend in other areas

>Furthermore, with only 100 labeled examples, it matches the performance of training from scratch on 100x more data. We open-source our pretrained models and code. Good guy Jeremy. Works hard during day, open sources it at night

Yeah its not up yet but curious to here your use cases, right now im sending api keys one ppl at a time. Thanks Its literally a vnc. Fully customizable, programmable, browsable. The idea is to release impactful javascript libraries on js.fo

Ask HN: Would you use js.fo?

could you place a 'backdoor' in these neural networks? Releasing a publicly beneficial AI while allowing it to be activated like a Manchurian candidate.

I think before the market crash in the 80s, he bought a bunch of put options for pennies which ended up being probably several hundred dollars.....literally a 100,000% ROI from a blackswan event he's still living off that FU money....n

After reading Fooled by Randomness, I tried to replicate Nassim Taleb's strategy of buying far OTM options in anticipation of a particular stock being outed as a fraud. I made a killing when a certain blockchain company traded on NASDA

You need fiat banking to cash in and cash out. You are at the mercy of the fiat banking stakeholders. You can create any crypto currency but if nobody can buy it with cash or sell it for cash, it's worthless. SEC has already announced

by pwaai 8y ago
Except the 'new paradigm' still requires fiat banking and all of the same security laws you will expect. I think when SEC declares Ethereum as security by end of this year, it will be the end of ICO.

Yeah these days I eat sauerkraut now. It feels similar in some sense but not as complex as Kimchi....but the lack of smell is the advantage over kimchi tbh im just lazy and can't be bothered

You are accurate in that fish sauce is the original but people switched to shrimp sauce because it was less pungent. I think when you salt the veggies and then coat it with a mix of garlic pepper paste and wait for fermentation to occur, fl

Fun fact, the spicy pepper was only introduced after the Portuguese brought it to East Asia. The original Kimchi was not spicy and red.

Well reddit is pretty much the only site that I compulsively check. I no longer care about Facebook. Actually I prefer anonymous reddit users more.

by pwaai 8y ago
I can certainly attest to this that reddit is a great tool in gathering like minded people. I experienced this recently with the Longfin Blockchain Corp, a NASDAQ traded garbage that the SEC is now investigating. It was amazing to see how q
