After working with math academy, any form of video learning seems so inefficient. I think people lose a lot of time watching these videos thinking that they are learning without applying anything by themselves.
Good point. Learning mostly occurs during the active parts where no YouTube video can provide. I think that's why universities will live a lot longer than people think.
I think this list shows that how overwhelming the amount of resources to learn but we have so limited time. I think Duolingo style learning paths are way to go because we need to minimize the time to learn something. These kind of dumps are of no use except for bookmarking and feeling good.
How will your insurance change after you retire? Will a retired google engineer be able to afford a google-class health insurance? I am asking to learn, not to imply anything.
You are right but the problem is this: I would like to use Google maps but I do not want Google to have a perfect profile of me so I try to add plausible false data.
What you suggest is the only thing that will succeed in preserving privacy. You cannot hide your data as they can still track you even if you do not have an account. We have to lie plausibly to contaminate the data. The important thing is that the data should be carefully generated not to be flagged as synthetic.
If any country wants to have a stable coin, they can choose US dollar or Swiss Franc as its currency. There are already some countries doing that. Hence, there is no need for a crypto currency for a stable coin.
The downside is that you cannot control the monetary policy of your of own country. You cannot pump money according to the economic situation. Look at the eurozone, for example, Germany wants to increase rates -hence increase the value of Euro- whereas Greece is still struggling. Leaving your currency to somebody else’s decisions may not be a good idea.
Maybe after all cars become autonomous. Earlier there will be a hybrid period where both manned and unmanned cars drive together I think.
Even all cars become autonomous, the problem will still be hard I believe. Hard coded rules may solve the problem but relying on communication and cooperation will not be easy.
I'd be impressed if I see a self-driving car making a left turn in a crowded junction without a specific left-turn signal at LA. The only way to turn left in such roads is to make an illegal turn after the signal just becomes red. I wonder how the self-driving car would do in such a situation.
I am also so disturbed by Facebook’s “keep the user always logged in” policy. If you click on a link inside a reminder mail sent when one of your friends post something, you are automatically logged in. I noticed it after forwarding such an email to one of my friends. At least they could explicitly indicate such behavior in the email.
Then, the algorithm gives negative weight to locations where dangerous groups tend to live. That is, it infers race from other parameters.
What you should do is to keep the ratio of people classified as dangerous same among different groups. But this comes at a price as reduced classification accuracy.
Anything sensed can be transmitted but not necessarily in its current form. It can be used to train some ml algorithm about you and the parameters can be transferred. Privacy should start at the sensing level.
Probably because Apple is a hardware company and Google (read Android) is an advertising company. Stopping addiction is more harmful to Google than Apple. Hence it can improve their market share.
Let’s assume that you know that the price of the bitcoin will increase during the holiday season due to many online transactions. Won’t people start to collect bitcoin before the holiday season? In turn it will make price increase earlier. It seems to me that can be a stabilizing factor.
