Nitpicking nitpicking: "Technically" CNAME is DNS insofar as DNS is "technically" defined at all.

I don't mean "it's not a high tech native experience with dark mode". I mean the app works poorly, all the time, and gets in the way of actually using the headphones. For example: whenever my headphones are paired with b

Yeah, you can change the functionality of the button via the Bose app. However, the Bose app is awful.

Yes to both of those (but not thaaat long). But in this case I still would have ran an exhaustive nmap because it's a device on my local network rather than a remote server.

It was a “fast nmap”, so only the top 100 most common ports were checked.

This is a paper that was published in CVPR (Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition). In that context it is unambiguous that CNN means Convolutional Neural Networks.

It is worthwhile to note that Slack's very recently departed chief architect had previously helped start the HHVM project.

Perhaps closer to much of the HN audience, the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum in NYC has an exhibit as well! I went recently and it, along with the rest of the museum, is terrific. https://www.cooperhewitt.org/2019&

Both of Stewart Butterfield's companies, Flickr then Slack, are spin-offs of tools the team made while trying to make a game. Maybe that's what your coworker was thinking of?

Got worried when I saw the Gaussian approximation but I’m glad to see the author’s evaluation. > Despite the fact that the Gaussian distribution is widely used in fianacial models, it has some well known pitfalls, namely its inability to

Absolutely. See the meme of how IDA Pro doesn’t (didn’t) have undo for evidence of this.

It’s 2 hex chars per byte. You have to divide by 16 6 times. Or rather by 32 (2^8) 3 times. 0x0 - 0xF can be represented with 4 bits or half a byte.

Anecdotally, I have seen 50-100x (seriously) increases when moving from a V100 to TPUv3. To be fair, some of that is batch size increase. This was using the models in https://github.com/tensorflow/tpu/tree/mas

Important that they're aiming to _raise_ $100MM, not going public at a $100MM valuation as I first thought. Funny how IPOing to raise capital has become secondary to IPOing to provide liquidity in this late stage of the tech credit cyc

Huh, the embedded images all 403 for me but work when accessed directly. Edit: Now it's like.. 50/50?

I'm very excited for Tensorflow for Swift, personally. The type system will make development so much more pleasant IMO. Judging by the way things have been lately though, I imagine that by the time TF for Swift is ready I'll be re

That's not at all what front running is. But to let patio11 answer your question: payment for order flow is useful in many ways. See: https://www.kalzumeus.com/2019/6/26/how-brokerages-make-mone...

Are you implying robinhood is front-running trades? That's an extraordinary claim indeed. And even if they were , it would not impact you in this particular case.

How do they actually run the iOS OS code involved in this debugging? Jailbroken iPhones? iOS virtualization ala Corellium ( https://corellium.com )?

Woah that is totally untrue. Brokerages make a lot of money by investing your balance. In particular, IB makes 49% of its revenue this way. https://www.kalzumeus.com/2019/6/26/how-brokerages-make-mone...

This is awesome! It will be really helpful to me while reversing or doing CTFs. Previously I'd hack shit together in python to do this stuff one-off.

What solutions do you recommend for server side logging? I've come to a similar conclusion as you as far as what's actually reasonably necessary.
