Off topic: Always define your abbreviations. To find out what CNN stands for here, you either have to read a comment thread on HN, or go to the paper and read the introduction. The linked page doesn't even mention neural networks. And as some other commenter here has mentioned, CNN has other more well known meanings than Convolutional Neural Networks.
Am I the only one who thinks that Apple was turning around independently of Taylor Swift? It seems to me that they had heard the criticism before and then used it as an answer to Swift as a better story.
I don't think Swift is so influential as everybody thinks. Apple turned so fast after her open letter, it makes me think they were already thinking about it. Not that Swifts letter was meaningless, but stuff usually takes a bit longer in the corporate world.
If the company wants to hire you, they will want to negotiate a deal that works for both parties. Crossing out and signing might be a bit harsh, but there should be no problem saying to the employer that you disagree with some sections.
If I remember correctly, the patient "died" after the game got too much press, and the server crashed. Instead of rerunning the game, they called it a success. Couldn't find it either, but I did not look too long.
So basically, while HTTP/2.0 could force TLS, the world could still be like it is today, with some pages running web servers with HTTP/1.1 without TLS?
For how long will HTTP 1.1/1.0 live alongside HTTP/2? It's all nice if every web page has TLS, but if I can just not upgrade to 2.0, it will not matter at all...
Well, we can't see the code that is taken down here, but if assignment had a lot of set up code, and the assignment was to fill in some functions, there can be a copyright violation. If these repositories only included student made code, then I agree that there is a problem.
As this is an issue of copyright violation, I don't have any issue with this. A DMCA complaint fixes just this.
A few years ago I got an email from a TA in a subject I took the year before, that they wanted me to take down solutions I hosted on Github. However, there was no provided code in the assignment, and it was basically implementations of previously known algorithms (A* among others). Not a formal takedown request, but they said I should understand that they had to use the same assignments each year, and if I were providing solutions this could be hard. My answer was that if they are worried about plagiarism, it's better that my solutions are public, as they can be checked against.
Really? Do you mean people chained together multiple processors, or that Intel produced something? For I can't find it and would be interested in reading about those old systems.
I'm not saying they would be fine now, but once (10 years ago), that was what you had. And now we have 4-8 cores on our laptops, and 2-4 on our phones. Why shouldn't we have 64 cores in the future if we solve the programming problems, and can make them energy efficient? Just because 4 cores are fine now, doesn't mean we shouldn't try to increase that.
