Many young people are also graduating and entering the professional job market for the first time. I’m writing this because it would have helped me to read this when I was first starting out. Ooooooh, *that's* what I was doing wrong all this time
"Whatevs, dude. Hire me.", seemed to be working?

Would be part of learning your native language.
We have writing such letters and a "resume" (a short CV) as basic education. Still, companies exist here that "help" the jobless to write such letters.
Those leeches should be banned.

Similar to Photosynth, NeRF-W can reconstruct 3D scenes from internet photography. They haven't cancelled it yet?
Or is this a plan to put billboard ads on all the photos you post?

They probably will, when they realize that Neowise is alreay gone

Most of us learn Machine Learning from the ground up. But the skills developers need to be effective users of ML is something totally different. So what should the forward-looking software engineer learn about AI today? NI before AI

CS before NI

Quote: If you’ve designed neural networks before, the code above is straight-forward and readable. But if you haven’t or you’re just learning, you’ve probably got some questions. Like, what is Dropout? What are these dense layers, how many do you need and where do you put them? What’s sparse_categorical_crossentropy?
The author's overly optimistic in assuming my questions start there. My first question is why despite claiming that the code being talked about is tensorflow, the only identifiable keyword in it is keras which the graph immediately above implies is something other than tensor flow.
Oh and all of those questions the author thinks the reader would have after seeing the equivalent of a machine learning hello world program. None were answered.

The article
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

A leaker today posted on Twitter a link to a file sharing service that contains what an anonymous source claims is a portion of Intel's crown jewels: A 20GB folder of confidential Intel intellectual property. Now you can make your own CPU!

A snarl, a sneer, a whip that stings...
these are a few of my favorite things.

Quote: the average programmer of today knows little to nothing about it. That’s about to change.
Wow, I've heard that for at least 10 years.
It's sort like when a man promises to change - no matter his intentions, he still remains dys-functional.

A recently discovered security vulnerability in remote-access firmware on Dell servers can give hackers full access to the same systems data center managers use, enabling them to do things like turn off a server’s cooling fans or shut the machine down completely. Maybe they'll be kind enough to do a full backup first?

Researchers demonstrated how remote attackers could steal UltraLoq digital keys with minimal effort. I guess the first clue is that all the affected MAC addresses started with BA-DC-0D-35

I am sticking with as much analog things I can. At least to crack them you need to be physically there.
