I just tried a famous Cartier-Bresson image... "It's not super amazing. It's…something I guess; you could do better. Try improving your colors. This is at most 3.9/10. #boring" Yeah, Henri, improve your colors you l

This is illegal in USA and UK. Most countries have legislation that recruitment agencies must follow, and one of the stipulations is usually real and accurate job postings, because of the many scams and fraudulent practices involving fake p

Me too. I got one about 9 months ago, after wasting my life with various machines, moka pots, etc. Ditched them all after trying the Aeropress, with the "inverted method". Looks like some kind of cheap plastic sex toy, but goddamm

Also, fully decode the input string before doing this processing to make sure you really find all those sequences. A simple, seemingly obvious step that a surprising amount of software neglects to do.

Would you care to enlighten us all?

It's also worth noting that senses may actually take advantage of the inherent noise to improve sensitivity of low level signals using stochastic resonance -- random resonances of noise and actual signal boosts the measured signal to a

I'm not talking about serverless, I'm talking about decentralised. The article is talking about decentralised. You're talking about decentralised, even. But your platform is a centralised platform just like most other Web app

The discussion point of the article is how we can build such technologies for the kinds of things you just listed as needing a centralized domain. You claimed that they were describing your platform. But in the 'macro' sense, your

That's funny, they're really not. According to your own documentation, you have a traditional centralised client-server architecture. (Albeit one with some bells and whistles.)

This was especially common on 8-bit and 16-bit computers to fake 'high colour' displays on machines that had only limited colour capability. They often took advantage of the fact that people were using their machines with TVs with

Fantastic achievement. Would love to know some more details about the project and hardware design.

Wouldn't this just cause the top 1% (who own the majority of the land in most countries) to charge higher ground rents to cover their land taxes, and make it increasingly difficult for anybody else to own land and buy out their freehol

I studied computer science in Wales in the 90s. Although the lectures were all in English, we had the option of taking our exams in Welsh. (University Policy was that everything must be bilingual, even hand-written student posters on bullet

I think the problem is that what you meant is very different from what you actually wrote. Practical implementations that need to achieve good but not perfect play are content to stop at a point before that. Indeed, but that's not th

You play out the game to the end. Nope. You could play out to one or several ends, but there is a huge number of possible end games at any given point. Simply saying 'play out the game to the end' is a gross simplification. The

I think you're greatly underestimating how difficult it is to come up with an algorithm to play Go. Even evaluating a single play state is a difficult problem, let alone looking forwards to 'simply taking the route giving max prob

So what you're saying is it's just a hobby and won't be big and professional like Linux? ;)

Considering it should only take a matter of minutes to bring it back up with https using Let's Encrypt, yes. The longer its available without security, the larger the window for trouble. There is no excuse these days for not protecting

Conversely, I find his comment to be perfectly matter-of-fact, whereas I find yours (esp. your last paragraph) comes across as condescending, haughty and (ironically) arrogant.

Given how well games like Mario have been mastered by machine learning algorithms (to beyond expert human levels), I doubt a motocross-maniacs-style side scroller would present too much of a challenge. It would be interesting to see what, i

Apparently because it breaks the mental association between being in bed and sleeping, which can exacerbate sleep problems/insomnia and reduce quality of sleep.

No, it's a problem with the thumbnail. Compare with the full size one, which is correct: http://smartmockups.com/mockup/47

I think this is a great idea. Unfortunately, several of the images have alignment issues and other problems. One of the mockups thumbnails covers up the user's thumbs with the screen, for example: http://smartmockups.imgix.n

I'd be very interested to know, as it seems to have some interesting properties: can run on limited CPU devices yet easily cope with high resolution images, in a range of colours and contrasts, and and can detect the pattern at a range

Remove the extraneous angle bracket to fix the link. Mac OS X's exposé does some funky stuff to that image :)
