In focus-blurred images, the blur spreads the information about certain pixels throughout a region of the image. (Objects appear larger and fainter because of this when they are blurred. It's why you can shoot through a mesh-wire fence

This is crazy. It would have taken all of 30 seconds to run the plates and verify the owner. This must surely have been intentional.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homomorphic_encryption My understanding is that it is possible, and Turing-complete systems can be built, but they are slow and unwieldy, requiring a large amount of cyphertext to encode d

An interesting clause in the terms and conditions: * Users recognise that piracy harms artistic creation.

To be fair, that's not always been the case. Last time I tried the profiler under OS X, it all seemed to work, but the actual figures produced by the profiler were nonsense. Other platforms seemed unaffected. That was quite a while ago

Well, OK not technically a day, but practically speaking it bought me around 7 extra hours in Edinburgh, which felt like an extra day in comparison to having to spend 8 hours+ on the return train journey. There are many other practical fact

Last year, I went to Edinburgh from Oxford. It was slightly cheaper for me to: * Drive to Birmingham airport * Pay for airport parking * Fly to Edinburgh * Get the bus to/from Edinburgh center ...than to get the train, booked about

Wow, I started designing a language called Crystal in the 90s, which a) looks similar to this, and b) I'm pretty sure I even bought the domain crystal-lang.org at one point, but I never did anything with it! I had a very similar logo t

Evolutionary algorithms make use of randomness, but evolutionary solutions are neither random, nor irrational. Non-deterministic, yes. Unpredictable, sure. Chaotic... you betcha. Random... certainly not. And not irrational - the process is

It doesn't mean anything of the sort. They just need a tip-off at the border. They don't need access to everything or even need to know how or why. They don't even need to know that it's a tip-off: a computer could just

You still have not described HAM except in the vaguest of terms. You have addressed very few of my questions. What is the Hypothetical Amnesia Machine thought experiment? Where have you described this, or where can a description be found? W

You're happy to discuss the workings? How about writing them down somewhere...? All your documentation, such as it is, describes things using terms that you never actually define or explain. Your code is just as bad. Worse in fact, bec

The vans are simply for awareness and transport for the investigators who visit a percentage of addresses that do not have a licence. Here is a TV Licencing employee admitting as much: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fg5t4jV

Confused? I'll explain: 3M paid this kid $25000 in order to generate clickbait headlines and get people the world over to see the mark '3M' with minimal effort and expense.

Some form of content-centric networking ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_centric_networking ) would be good to help up publishing and broadcasting over the internet, and eliminate the slashdot effect / reddi
