on: Try to guess if code is real or GPT2-generated
This was a fun exercise, definitely think this could be difficult to suss out for greener devs or even more experienced ones. It’d be hilarious to have this model power a live screensaver in lieu of actually being busy at times.

on: I Am Bezos
Oh I agree, the counter is a nice novelty toy but I know its not realistic. I'm comfortable with what I make and what I invest in, at some point there is such a thing as too much money for a single person (not a social statement, just a statement about my situation).

This is fun to watch, in the time it took to look at another article, the number that appeared was double what I make in a year.

If you see it from the perspective of being able to retain staff or hiring new employees, it definitely seem worth it.

Dunno why you are getting downvoted, its a fair mistake to make (Bauhaus vs Baohaus), especially if you aren't aware of Bauhaus to begin with.

on: 5G Got me Fired
He raises many good points about the potential downsides of 5G. US telecom corporations are rushing to beat China Telecom companies & South Korean companies to the punch. The US is definitely not going to have the same dominance in 5G that they had with 4G, especially if they take hazardous paths to a nationwide rollout

I think my cheap choice of wireless charger is to blame; I'll have to try this out again with something more legitimate.

From my short experience with wireless charging, I'm not a fan of the overheating issues and its definitely the reason why I wouldn't choose to use this over connecting a cable directly.

Personally I've always liked the simple query language Graphd/freebase had. I'm interested to see how the performance is like in comparison to other triple stores

on: Launch HN: The Buttermilk Company (YC S18) – Homemade Indian Food in 5 Minutes
I don't get why you are getting downvoted. For that price, you could easily get a few pounds of the spices needed to cook those foods.

on: Launch HN: The Buttermilk Company (YC S18) – Homemade Indian Food in 5 Minutes
Let me preface that I like the concept and it definitely makes it easier to introduce some folks to actually cooking this food at some point down the line.
That said, I don't understand how you have this much salt in these packs. I'm south indian and cook on a regular basis; specifically I cook these foods quite often and the spices involved generally don't have salt mixed in (unless the spice mix wasn't ground by you originally and so I can see how the salt would be mixed in, but still)

on: Google Unveils Titan Security Key, a Yubico-Like Phishing Resistant 2FA Device
No, but I can see why you would think I meant that. I didn't cite my sources, probably why I got downvoted a bunch; Racking my brain to remember that company's name but it essentially looked like a whitelabel version of hangouts (minus the google-y/material-design feel of the app).
I'll shut up now till I figure out the company I was thinking of.

Its not atypical for Google to do this, for instance Google Hangouts is actually a licensed software deal and not something in-house (albeit not the greatest example).

on: S0md3v/Photon: Incredibly fast crawler
Its an interesting project, I know that there are a ton of crawler projects but I think that focusing on the data extraction & triage is where this project differs from the rest.
Kudos to the author for the great work, I'll certainly do my part to contribute.

on: Machine Learning Guides
I think I have an answer to that first question; Altruistically I'd like to think its to help facilitate more ml engineers and scientists. Realistically, amongst the other reasons noted by everyone else, its a way to attract enterprise users to their technology & invariably their cloud.
Consider a larger organization (1000+ people perhaps), if groups within that org can train their people with these materials or even send them to Google to be trained in this subject matter they can come back with a nice shiny credential. Whether that ultimately becomes useful to that individual or the group is up to them but really it helps google foster that relationship with the main organization to eventually snag higher contract values.
That probably made no sense, but I thought I'd give my two cents (however crummy they might look).
