well, you could clone the repo, and build it yourself to lessen the chances of such attempts.

IMO flash didn't fit into the open web vision, if I wanted to make my own browser, it couldn't gain traction until adobe decided to release flash for my browser

$49 seems very expensive. I could get an android device and start learning "programming" by making android games instead for the same cost.

If something simple like the location of a AP changes, would this system have to train from scratch with the entire dataset?

They specifically talk about the fact that cities require a minimum number of parking to be built for businesses and residences. Now, if this requirement wasn't present then economical forces would take over, places without parking wou

From the source I have given: > A recent study compared the effectiveness of a rotenone-pyrethrin mixture versus a synthetic pesticide, imidan. Rotenone and pyrethrin are two common organic pesticides; imidan is considered a "soft&q

In regards to organic produce, imagine how much money the producer can make by charging a lot extra. Organic does not necessarily mean better for health or environment, in fact in some cases organic may be even be worse https://w

About the chips not being "optimal", say an Intel processor has 50M gates, to be placed in a 50M squares (all possible layouts). Then there would be factorial(50M) possibilities. If you could simulate each one every clock cycle, y

I was thinking more in terms of realizing signals are actual electrical nodes, not location in memory, separating the design in combinations and sequential parts and choosing the right size of buffer going from one clock domain to another a

Verilog seems "hard" because people often use it in a similar fashion to a programming language, and in most cases that does not make any sense. The proper way to use it is to design the hardware, then code it up using verilog (wh

SystemVerilog does seem to be used more and more. It is just verilog from the designer's perspective, but you have less chance to make mistakes, easier to write and the synthesis tool has more control over how to optimize the design.

On the flip side, the ageism issue is not present in the hardware industry as it is in the software industry. Also, for digital design, no "cutting edge" technology is coming out anymore, so experience becomes much more useful tha

I am fairly sure the same applies for my company as well. Very little I can do about it, since I singed the contract I am obligated to consider the best interest of the shareholder.

If you modify wordpress and distribute it as a software, right? Correct me if I am wrong but, if you modify wordpress and host it on your own server and serve it as a service you should not need to share all your code.

Also, source of electricity may be non-trivial. Battery would need creating acids and non-metal container to store them. A simple DC generator would need a permanent magnet.

I found this to be impressive because it seems to be working without LIDAR and performing very well. I may be wrong but most other contemporary cars that drive this well use expensive laser sensors

The fact that you can not go to the original page from the AMP page bothers me so much. I go as far as avoid AMP pages altogether just because of that reason.

Nobody said the simulation is being done with transistors. Even if it was why wouldn't it be possible? I don't see any constraints. One day humans will fully understand neurons. One day we will make an AI using transistors who wil
