The authors, bless their hearts, suggest that running halogen lamps at lower-than-rated voltages might be a good idea.
> If this is done with a halogen bulb, which is a type of incandescent tungsten bulb, the filament lasts for a longer period as evaporated tungsten is redeposited on the filament rather than blackening the bulb glass. Hence, using a halogen bulb at lower voltage is a realistic alternative in terms of health and energy consumption.
Unfortunately, as I understand it, the redepositing action only occurs at high temperatures.. It's a chemistry thing. I have been led to believe that running halogens at low voltages will cause the bulb glass to blacken sooner. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen_lamp#Effect_of_voltage...
Since this is a post about a programming tool, I expected links to repositories. I like to pick up a tool and turn it around in my hands before I decide if it is a good tool or not.
I set up a local BBS-like system and used the real NetZero* dialer to call it and attempt to log in. Then I changed my password and repeated the process several times.
That gave me the key to the Caesar cipher they used for the password.. so I could create a fresh account with a scrambled password any time I wanted.
At runtime, in the OS-provided ad-free dialer, I'd use the unscrambled password.
I also pre-created some accounts with unscrambled passwords like "apple" and "bicycle" to share with friends.
NetZero* ceased operations mere weeks after I started this.. Hm.
(* Was it NetZero specifically, or some clone? I forget..)
PSA: there is an Android application named "Google" (sic) which is a browser, but it's not Chrome. This browser application stores every interaction (browsing history, etc) on the server-side. My mother-in-law uses it .. to buy sweaters from bloggers? She uses it for everything. And yes, she thinks the internet is just named Google. :(
dnsge, would you be willing to help me carry out some research? Could you please explain in your own words, that is, without doing any searches, what a cloud variable is?
I'm 40, and I started on Commodore Basic, but my son is 11, and he started on Scratch. I'm curious where this will go. :)
I think the commenter means that mechanical watches don't keep time as well as digital watches. So, I guess they are optimized for mechanical beauty instead of timekeeping.
Correct, our eyes have cells that respond to certain wavelengths ("blue light") and send signals through nerves to the brain, but those nerves aren't attached to the visual cortex, they are attached elsewhere. And that's why "blue light" inhibits sleep. ...I wish I could provide a citation, these details are something I just heard late last week...
To my eye, kmeisthax's comment appears to be entirely accurate.
Well, that is to say, that assuming the facts that listed are accurate, then I agree with the conclusion: it's not "open source" at all. (And certainly not Libre.)
The things you said do not describe an open source project.
The point here is that the title of this thing is incorrect. If the ML community doesn't agree, it's because they are (apparently) walking around with incorrect definitions of "open source" and "Free Software" and "Libre Software".
(The format of the blob is python's "pickle" format: a binary serialization of an in-memory object, used to store an in-memory object and later load it, perhaps on a different machine.)
But, I did not find any source code for generating that file. Am I missing something?
Shouldn't there at least be a list of input images, etc and some script that uses them to train the model?
Well I tried to bring the "[...] employs a reflow solder to improve sound localization." typo/glitch to the author's attention, but I couldn't find any way to send a DM or email.
Hi. Could you add a section that explains what this is about? The linked repo does not explain what the objective of the game is supposed to be.
I understand that the game is related to "the dining cryptographers", but I haven't memorized that piece. I read it once? I can probably find it on Wikipedia?
I recommend making your game a self-contained work that does not rely on at least one of the players remembering some details about a very specific thought experiment.
