In the big picture, extremely flawed military and political leaders ordered the killing of innocent people. Lower ranked military personnel found interesting ways to carry out those orders. Should we ignore the big picture? In addition, the

Part of the stock's future price is based many features that are not in the dataset. In addition, a stock's current price is based on predictors which interact chaotically. Your predictor has to take into account that other predic

I don't know who is really doing this or what the impact will be but let's pretend for a moment that the chinese government is responsible. They are largely funding our government. We need each other. I wonder if a serious problem

I think there is an 'uncanny valley' aspect to the science. The movie seems serious in its attempts to portrait the science (the cgi is very well rendered) but also has so many things wrong that it is upsetting (what is rendered m

Why wouldn't time move backwards for the entire universe? If it does, there can be no record of any future event and there is no way to determine that time is moving backwards. If time moved backwards in one spot, what about all the in

I suspect a lot of the difficult world problems relate to poverty. The first job of "real" AI should be to better employ the under employed. Google (along with other highly successful companies) should provide the work environment

Please backup your claim with a link that shows how. This is an example of all the sites that I've found: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/macbook-pr... It says ... One size that Apple d

I wonder if apple will prevent rendering at full resolution like the retina macbook pros because the max font/icon size for many apps is too small. This would mean you are paying for a screen that can't render at the new fancy res

I think a "corporate micro-city" might be the solution for poverty in the 3rd world. I think a joint venture with google, facebook, apple, and 1st world governments etc to build a "hong kong/singapore styled city" n

At a minimum, we should quarantine travelers from that region when they arrive. We should require them wear a tracking device to be sure they are staying in place. It would be expensive but worth it if it catches a few infected people. As a

I read a paper that studied why some marriages work. The author concluded that in those marriages, the couple worked to calm each other. I've used that in my relationships and it has worked well. I make an agreement with my partner upf

1) Look at the problem a different way and try to find a way to make it more interesting, attractive and (most importantly) impressive. I had to find and fix a tedious problem so I wrote a visualization, defect detection and automatic corre

The 'up' part is the key. If the person makes more than you do, I think it should save you money. It does for the people I've dated anyway :).

I moved out of the US a year ago to travel around the world but never left the first city I visited in asia. I work from home. My split level condo is on the 40th floor with a view of the sunset, ocean, and the city skyline. My office moves

I've worked on image recognition and find OpenCV too simple. I don't like algorithms that work on the entire image without taking into account what is being recognized. For example, if you have a combination of thick and thin edge

I've worked on this problem quite a bit. The hard thing to accept is that there can be large areas in an image where there isn't a significant difference between the foreground and background. In other words, the raw data doesn&#x

The big thing I learned (at a company where all changes are code reviewed) is to rewrite the code until it seems obviously correct to someone who doesn't know what I know. I rename variables, methods and extract code into small methods

I lost my Mom to Fox News for a while but after talking with her, she has come back. I didn't actually expect her to return but it is so easy to point out the holes in the Fox News arguments. I'm atheist but I know the bible well

I was there at the time. It is not just that Google is good at certain things. It is also that the developers who built orkut were very very bright new developers (many just out of college) who lacked experience. The brazilians took over or

given how easy it is for law enforcement to tap into our internet activities, I suspect bitcoin use is the perfect red flag for them; it is a different kind of bitcoin mining. it is kind of a joke actually; there is some dude trying to secr

My bet is a device like google glasses (or contact lens) with a sleek headset that has mind controllable sensors. I don't want to type, or talk to control it. I just think of calling my friend and the phones dials, and I see her image.
