Hong Kong is a different case, the space per person is too small.

Terrible in terms of consideration. If you employees caught up by the virus, it will be a huge blow to the company beyond just image.

Their Fire Eye lab claims to process 10k tests per day. Wuhan in total can process 25k per day [1] Plus China recent donated 12,500 test kits to Japan [2] Of course, you seems to dismiss anything from China's official account, then you

US had banned travelers with recent Chinese history from entering the countries effectively from Feb 2nd. I would be much more alert right now as regards to people from Europe/Middle East. Iran is a pretty powerful source of infections

But US had rejected China travelers' entry and it had been almost 3 weeks now. The chance that people here in get the virus from travelers from Italy/Japan/South Korea/Middle East is MUCH higher than that from China at t

COVID-19 is much more powerful than any of these you mentioned before. It is SARS+, less fatal but much more infectious. In a way, it is a very successful virus (in a nightmare scenario), that aspiring to become the next flu. The Chinese sc

Looking at CDC's response so far: 1. Testing only 400 cases across the whole country. 2. Defective test kits which will only be fixed until Mid March 3. Hawaii now asking ask Japan(which by itself is doing a horrible job at handling th

Languages are API too, right? In a way. This might limit someone else's to reimplement the language's own specs? Something like LLVM will be forbidden in this case? And Web is a complete mess, if CSS also an API? Are different JS

TBH, the 70 cases that are not related to the cruise ship is what is more worrying. According to recent study by Chinese CDC, there are 100 cases in China at the end of last year, and the outbreaks came like 3 weeks later. Japan had this pr

This is how you survive as a company in the world we are in today. We all know public gets knee jerk reaction towards those issues, and why drive fire towards yourself.

Unseen problems is a ill defined term. There is a distinction between in domain and out of domain, both can be unseen by the model before. Even human as agent requires training before being deployed to unseen problems. Generalization is con

Compression in your context is as meaningless as Generalization. Yes, you can say generalization is compression.

I mean looking at the author's resume, it looks like he is mainly focused on machine learning domain, where the hiring is tight. Yes, in ML top 5% candidates are sought after like there is no tomorrow, but there is barely anything left

What I am worrying now is that Cloud is supposedly a fast growing sector they should double down on investing. This doesn't look to me as a hyper growth focus trajectory TBH

by tanilama 7y ago
Is this a sign Google is not going to compete in Cloud anymore? Can't see how this is not going hurt customer confidence.

Than expected? I am pretty sure none of the people who actually works in the related industry expect self-driving car to come out anytime soon. The hype is created by media and investors, with intention other than creating a viable product.

Can verify. Human are weird animals. We get anxiety looking at others doing good. Maybe we are just really really mean. Though most of the doing good is just on the surface

One of the better read for a long time. The translation assistant you write is actually very interesting. Heavily rule based but surprising to see it actually helps at all. But the scale of the project itself seems still pretty limited, rei

It is worse than a table. Dataframe don't really have a clear boundary as what it can do or cant do. I see no problem why you can't shoehorn some control flow logic into it which makes it pretty much just an executor of arbitrary

I would be more curious on why this would change Chinese people's consumption habits, and how long lasting such change would be after the outbreak. Will be very interesting to see it through.

Is this surprising? Sounds like a very natural step approach logging.

Hong Kong has its own separate system from mainland China, and it had went through long protest last year. So OP's friends leaving HK doesn't bear that much of an indication value anyway.
