I bought a fair amount of crypto to flip in the short-term, but on the other hand I don't believe the technology has proven itself to be anything more than a fad. I'd like to see a…

FYI, MailChimp is based in Atlanta, GA. Maybe you mean to use "Silicon Valley" as a catch-all for tech, but I don't think it's fair to associate SV with anti-ICO attitudes in this …

You would use a PIN that is generated at the time of freezing the account. However, this doesn't prevent a future attack from obtaining the PINs.

An alternative? You mean user-created passwords?

Even a cubic foot of water would be well under 100lbs. I doubt a cubic foot of mussels + water to fill the rest could weigh a ton. It may be possible for (especially stationary str…

My Chinese friends tell me it's no longer mandatory for students to take English classes, but it'll likely never be banned outright.

I've been using the free unlimited roaming from T-Mobile on several trips to Japan, Argentina, France, and Italy. Often, the speeds are actually faster than EDGE, unless the networ…

I'm a long-time Prompt user, and I just purchased Blink on the App Store after seeing that mapping Caps Lock to CTRL is supported. It does seem to work, although not really as cons…

Well, now we have 10-715 as the ML PhD-level course that corresponds to 701. https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~epxing/Class/10715/

I thought it was a bit pedantic as well, at first. But looking at Haskell, I can see why the author made this point. Haskell functions won't accept random values as input, since th…

This is the right perspective. It seems the OP believes actual photographs are privileged in some way. In reality, any visual input from our eyes counts as training data, as you sa…

iCloud backups are 100% encrypted. Only some iTunes backups are not, and only if the option to use encryption to protect the backup is not selected.

Which monitor would you recommend that uses the same display as the 5k iMac? Apparently Samsung made one half a year ago that costs as much as the iMac itself.
