I don't see any reason why I'd love my (true-AI) artificial children any less than my real children :)

Exactly. The first question that should be asked when people try to make generalizations is if sampling bias is accounted for.

I know very little about js. It wasn't an issue when I interviewed with Google and it hasn't been an issue working there.

Herd immunity. If 90% of cars are super predictable autonomous vehicles, the 10% remaining will be very safe. Unless they're teenagers. God help us.

Yeah, I think it's more accurate to say that both Baidu and Google got their lists of departments from the same source: academic machine learning.

My point was that they would be saving lives by allowing driverless cars, since humans are more dangerous behind the wheel. And, because they can censor twitter (as an abbreviation for controlling propaganda) they can get away with it in a

And they'll actually be able to go full-speed on the highway, kill people (less than real drivers), but still continue on in development without massive public outcry! I wonder, if someone could make a self-driving car that could pass

The real impact of terrorism is only the fear we feel as a result. Alcohol is much more dangerous. Compromising the principles on which the country was founded would be a victory only for the terrorists. For US citizens, and the rest of the

When someone calls for censorship, they generally do not mean in their homes.

I like to replace the phrase "politically correct" with "respectful treatment of individuals" or "empathy".

I believe your and abcdabcd987's use of the term BST is not exactly what is commonly used. A BST refers to both the data structure and the algorithm used to manage it. An RB tree is a different concept. An RB tree is a binary tree, cer

I'm not really sure what amortization you're talking about here. BSTs are O(n) lookup, and the pathological case is quite easy to achieve: add elements to it in sorted order. There are other trees that have O(lg n) lookup. Red-bla

The term "inversely correlated" is a new one for me, since correlation is two-way, and, as they say, not necessarily causal.

Threatening to sue (or actually suing) is by definition never something that has legal consequences in this country. Law suits are the way of saying "We cannot agree, the state shall decide". It so happens that money can unfairly

Saying that quality improves asymptotically implies that it has a max ceiling. This property is consistent with the diminishing returns you talk about.

As uncomfortable as it may be too say, that means that it isn't bias on YC's part; it's an accurate predictor of future success. I would argue that social responsibility requires YC to take the hit, but bias is the wrong word
