Not at all, a high end car will use an entirely different architecture to a mid/low end... When you target a certain feature set it can make sense to use one big central processor, for lower end things it's more sensible to use li

I'm guessing it's at least partially too high risk from a students perspective. Much of the point of an established university is credentials, a new one cannot give the same recognition. This means that to attract new students, an

You can't argue your way into making a homogeneous population. The reality is that the groups are distinct, and immediately changes the dynamic from "a facility used and maintained by the group who established it", to "a

The disconnect between observation and understanding is the whole point; without western ideas like trends, records, and measurement, you can have no better understanding than, "sometimes wet, sometimes not". The only part in tune

It seems like that's an impossibility, since you would need to find something in the current era that has been abandoned, rather than decommissioned... There are a few examples that might fit, some earthworks, (tunnels, breakwaters, da

You can't really beat a jammer, sure you can compete for power output, but there is no real stopping it. Aircraft and military positioning concepts are evolving towards more map and dead reckoning, lessening the benefit of GPS jamming.

Training data is always filtered, if you want a representative of the population you would need to include conspiracy theories about the Jews, and rants about per capita crime rates... But nobody really wants a model the returns that.

See I suspect that the problem is not taking any sort of capitalist return concept when implementing a socialist policy... Even if you assume that the government needs to create jobs, it's like nobody has ever done a cost benefit, at a

The problem is rarely "capitalism", since most of the most glaring issues are either in highly regulated systems, or cases where the person receiving a service is not the one paying for it. I think the average english person funda

No, we really did not have a history like that remotely. It's a bit alarming to see a historical fact states so completely incorrectly. We had a hugely restrictive immigration policy, (have a look at the rate of growth over time) follo

Twitter was built long before it's headcount reached its peak. It suffered through a fairly common problem where due to its value and revenue it tries to justify a huge headcount, usually due to managers getting paid based on headcount

Melbourne specifically is cooked by the rate of growth, and declining tax revenue per capita. When we funded the majority of the big infrastructure pushes our rate of growth was lower, and gdppc (and revenue/PC) was exploding. This gen

Its more that if you don't know for sure if it's possible; and usually you don't. Then adding your expertise onto an ai system is never going to pay off compared to building out the ai compute infrastructure and training data

The big issue with the implementations I have seen is because HR aims to minimise the number of checks they do, so they can appear efficient. So most aim to do as much resume filtering as they can first, then short calls, then background ch

Honestly this sounds like a successful "bad fit" signal (assuming that they work with go and payment systems mostly). Language and domain experience are things id like to know after an interview process.

HR involvement is unavoidable at big companies; and basics like "years of experience for payband" can cause issues. They fundamentally do not understand the job, but somehow have to ensure its not a biased hiring process.

I have some insight into this, and it might be possible that with good intervention the ongoing costs are low... That being said, in our current system the cases that are severe enough to be in public housing easily cost 10 times that...
