szczepano··on Advances in NLP to better connect people
They're already modern version of web directory with millions of contributors so they probably just need to organise it. Or they already did it ? Did they ?
szczepano··on Tumblr
Their next place is 404.
szczepano··on The Robot economy and the future of work
Yet another stupid article as many not talking about progress and future but only about money, money, money. Those kind of people were laughing about cars being slower than horses.

Automatisation should be priority of everybody unless people want keep being slaves and keep shitty jobs that they don't like, keep living poor and hungry.

Job is demand - if demand for something will be satisfied that doesn't mean everyone will take it and don't want anything else.

The best basic example I know is bread. Someone want white bread, someone dark bread other ones want sweet bread.

I have a small experiment for You reading this shitty comment, try to find exact number of how many types of bread people are buying and making around the world right now. Can you do that because I can't (Why ? One word - entropy).

We are people for god sake not animals so maybe it's time to start behave like one, don't you think ?

https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev/commit/28fa74680f4a3d2c...

szczepano··on Chromium and the Browser Monoculture Problem

szczepano··on Bitcoin Drops Below $8,000 as Cryptocurrency Pain Continues
It's going up/down because financial institutions are cashing their earnings using contracts. I thought it's obvious they want to destabilize cryptocurrency as it's threat to their business model and it's same threat to the capitalistic culture nowadays. When they fail or get bored they might force IMF to ban cryptocurrency exchange for national currency. As always banks would suck your money :)
szczepano··on MPEG: A crisis, the causes and a solution
I feel complete opposite to the author. I believe that open soruce patent free codecs will drive innovation and produce better solutions in no time, more then MPEG does over those years.
szczepano··on Waymo's big self-drive car report
I think Tesla idea of tunnels with self driving cars is more competent then those autonomous vehicles driving on roads with other cars. At least they got some data from their cars with real world usage not predictions.
