Your explanation doesn't account for Asian Americans.

> Knowing how much komi should be is equivalent to knowing how to play the best game.

I think komi should be chosen so that black and white stand even chances when humans - not optimal players - play.

Assuming you blackbox test the algorithms, you could include some signatures of past data. If those signatures are detected, you know the future and can trade optimally. If they are not detected, go for blind luck.

This seems to be the opposite.

Week 1: 512 participants. Half of them mail in "the market will go down this week". They lose.

Week 2: Of those who made a correct prediction, half make a correct prediction again. The rest lose.

Week 3-8. Etc

Week 9. We found a winner, one who could predict the market flawlessly!

I made an image to explain it. The grey area (conceptual, I don't know how big it is), shows wave lengths blocked by the glasses. As you can see those wavelengths give strong activation of both red and green cones. The remaining wave lengths activate just one or the other. This mean if a light source has both green wavelengths and yellow wavelengths, the filter will remove the yellow ones, making it look green instead of yellow.

One form of color blindness arises when the green and red peaks are especially close, making a large span of wavelengths look yellowy. By filtering those out, the person can get color vision.

If it's not too much trouble, could I ask for sources on 1)

>Google's HR head mentioned in a podcast that they are simply poaching female devs' from smaller players to get their diversity numbers up.

and 2)

> VC's have started tying their funding with diversity numbers.

>If stock in a company is worth what somebody will pay for it, what is the stock of a company worth when there is no place to sell it ?

A stock that is personal and non-transferable once bought, should probably be valued using discounted future dividends. Or discounted buy-out price.

That will reveal the false positives, but not the false negatives.

Well that was unexpected...

"Random" was poor wording on my part.

What the exponential distribution means is that bus arrivals are completely independent. The time since the last bus came doesn't affect the probability that a bus will come anytime soon.

Well seems like he is aggregating data across many lines, stops and times per day. Not very surprising that the result looks random.

What about this: sequence a tumour, find a distinguishing part of its genome. Make a virus that search and replaces that with self destructing genes. Inject into tumour.

Microsoft should buy or clone Ninite.

Wow this is wonderful. I'll definitely use it now and then.

Some ux nitpicks:

* I dislike the onhover fold/expand. That half second waiting for it to expand makes the interface feel slow and frustrating. The best thing imo would be if it was always expanded. The next best thing would be to make it expand instantly.

* If you type quickly in the search box, the display lags behind. A common way of fixing this is to detect fast typing and disable rendering until typing stops or at least becomes sufficiently slow.

It isn't a dumb and simple program. It does a lot of complicated stuff under the hood, and it is good to be aware of that.

>[strings] is an ancient (mid-1980s) program that simple extracts human readable strings out of a binary file, discarding the rest. It's really a stupid simple program.

No it isn't.

Yeah, "We noticed the hot wallets dwindling but assuming it was members moving their funds off site during the DDOS, we loaded all the cold balances onto the site"

sounds extremely suspicious.

The call trick is no longer necessary in x64. It supports addressing relative to instruction pointer, so you can do

Just 13% of people feel passionate about their job (worldwide). In the US the figure is 30%.

What is the advantage compared to TreeSet from standard library?

What about this:

1. Believes in equality of outcome

2. Believes in total war for the cause.

So basically, every phenomenon (like language, culture, everyday behaviour) should be judged by whether it brings us closer to equality of outcome. If it leads the wrong direction it should be banned, if it leads in the right direction it should be mandated. People who refuse to comply should be punished harshly.

In practice recursion probably covers most of the cases where it matters. Corecursion could (if awkwardly) be converted into ordinary recursion.

Interestingly, it seems the 404 varies with the url: http://www.bloomberg.com/a http://www.bloomberg.com/news/a/ http://www.bloomberg.com/v

99% of users will be dragnetted though. And more than 10% (pulling this out my ass) will use insecure wifi.

To be extremely cynical and pessimist: I guess it makes sense to bring the gold home in time for WW 3

(not only Germany is bringing their gold home, from the article France, Netherlands are doing the same)

SpringRTS has this. You can write and use lua plugins. To assist you with various small tasks, and add more info to the HUD.

Ok I'll try. All these people you mention are long-dead white men you are 'supposed' to like because it gives you social status. If they didn't exist there would probably be others you should like to give you signal how cultivated you are. You are forced to partake in their creations in school because of some mistaken cargo cult thinking "successful people like these artists so if force every to read/listen to/look at their creations they will be successful too!"

Contemporary pop art, on the other hand, entertains huge masses of people, gives them pleasure and delight, and makes their days happier.

Was thinking the same thing. INO's website[0] explains it. They will look at the tracks of charged particles produced when the neutrinos interact with atomic nuclei.

I changed ...End... to ...Start..., which could be a plausible real world bug.

It's hard to notice typos in names that long. Can you immediately tell where the typo is in auditNullRecipeCursorAtStartOfOrderLineAdditionsIfRequired ?
