That's also how Google self-driving cars work. When they don't understand what they are seeing they just show pictures to some random person in Google captcha who solves it quickly.

There are captcha farms in Asia where hundreds of people are sitting in the building and solve captchas non-stop.

That other language doesn't have that much outdated concepts as C++

Someone should write a WebGL miner already

> I still chuckle when randos make arguments like "C++ can't be parsed with an LALR parser"

I'm not an expert on parsers but I don't think LALR parser can evaluate constexpr C++ functions which is required for parsing C++.

E.g. in the following code, expression `A<f()>::a * u` will parse either as a variable declaration (int* u) or a multiplication (5 * 5) depending on the value returned by constexpr function f:

template<bool b> class A {};

template<> struct A<true> { typedef int a; };

template<> struct A<false> { static const int a = 5; };

constexpr bool f() { return true; }

const int u = 5;

int main() { A<f()>::a * u; }

And how would smart pointers help you if you need to return pointer to a member from a function? Does C++ protects you from moved from unique_ptr? Or from iterator invalidation? Or maybe you can safely use non-atomic shared pointer if you don't need to send it across threads?

Except that it can put trees somewhere where there were no trees but something similar to them. Or it can put face of a more popular actor instead of an actual less popular one because it was more often present in the training dataset. No, thanks.

> the prover certainly didn't share the knowledge

What knowledge prover didn't share?

> How can I emperically determine if some object/animal/thing possesses consciousness?

There is currently no way. We don't even know if all humans possess it and what animals do. Maybe people who deny its existence just don't have it.

> How is "consciousness" not just a modern word for "soul", minus the afterlife stuff?

It's not modern vs old, it is more scientific vs religious.

I agree that most articles about consciousness feel like word games though.

Strictly speaking you are right, but in practice HDR term is used to describe both HDR and wide color gamut.

Not only that but it also allows to display colors outside of the sRGB (Rec. 709) gamut.

Why can't they use some sane colormaps instead of this garbage?

If you are at it maybe you can also rename it so that its name doesn't start with a point and you don't need to put points in the middle of the sentences.

There is a transmission. At least in Model S: 1-speed fixed gear (9.73:1).

Proponents of C++ for some reason think that C++ is the only fast language while all others are slow interpreted scripting languages.

Russia mostly prefers to block websites instead of prosecuting their creators. E.g. btc-e.com (but not btc-e.nz) was blocked in Russia but they didn't care about its owners.

If you want to exchange cryptocurrency for USD then sure, those other exchanges are better. But not everyone wants USD.

They are boasting about how they caught the guy who robbed Mt. Gox but they just did the same - a lot of people just lost access to their money on BTC-e. They are not all criminals, BTC-e was a convenient way to exchange bitcoins to/from rubles and was used by many people in Russia who were interested in cryptocurrencies.

Off the top of my head:

* If you store IP addresses ensure that you can store IPv6 address if necessary.

* Rent servers only from IPv6 capable providers.

* When configuring DNS don't forget AAAA records.

* If you ban users by IP you might need to ban entire IPv6 subnets.

Interesting, looks like they are using something similar to Wine to run it on Linux.

How could Google own something written and supported in the authors' free time?

> You can remove terrorist propaganda from YouTube

It is not removed from YouTube, e.g. all ISIS songs (nasheeds) are available on YouTube.

There is an official book which is very well written. I remember that I started to read it several years ago and was surprised that I actually can understand most of the things.

I believe it was a joke about how Lennart Poettering usually responds to bug reports.

Remind me, why are such critical system components as systemd are still being written in a memory unsafe language?

You can remove such files using Bash on Windows. `rm con.proj` works just fine.

BTW there is a patent pool being formed by MPEG LA to license CRISPR. It seems to be similar to patent pools for video codecs.
