There is no way an unaltered pager has enough potential to explode in any way that could be harmful using a software-based exploit. Unless somehow the BMS (even if there was one) allowed you to short the battery with software, which seems r

The sooner those paths are closed for low-effort high-pay jobs, the better, IMO. All this money for no work is going to our heads. It's time to learn some real math and science, the era of regurgitating UI templates is over.

There's a specialty profession which merely adopts as fact definitions of productivity and optimizes costs against that. Give the denseness a rest.

Technically true, while ignoring all details of how "productivity" is defined. Claiming it's an issue of measurement and not definition implies you believe there's some ironclad and universally applicable definition of p

Public opinion has little bearing on the decisions that NYT makes, until a critical threshold is passed. The aim of the union is to bring that critical threshold of displeasure into focus and to approach it until NYT relents. The politics o

Pictographs can convey way more meaning than text. Add in cultural competency (subtext etc.) and it becomes incredibly potent. Hence, memes.

The smartphones at least nominally do not have consent to freely listen and record. Alexa is different in that you have full awareness of its capabilities when you agree to use it.

Your "preferences" exist only in the context of the set of choices before you. Hence, Nash equilibria, etc. I don't think you can extrapolate very far morally in "golden handcuffs" situations. Or, at least, we shoul

There's some theories that the US poisoned some of the crop fields in the 60s and 70s especially in the Ukraine resulting in inadequate yields, exacerbating the budgetary issues already present from space race / arms race spending

You imply there is some moral relevance to commerce. There is not. You either own a thing to control it, or you do not. I'm not saying relying on goodwill and enforcement is naive, but you always have to keep the possibility in mind th

Tragic? You really think the company is the poor victim?? Company made choices, they were bad choices. Bad business deserves zero sympathy.

The US government has put a lot of effort into isolating China from the Phillippines. It's just statecraft and covert influence campaigns, nothing to do with the moral supremacy of anti-imperialism. Moralizing arguments such as this on

You can take many equivalent perspectives on learning systems, but mostly it reduces to "messing with denominators in Bayes' rule". This is no different. EBMs today aren't used because first you have to fit the joint mod

I wish I had more opportunity to use EBMs. Joint distributions seem to be more relevant to our epistemology (vis a vis data and what we can say about it) than conditional ones. But the optimization steps for fitting parameters is kind of a
