Re:Hacking the Nintendo DSi Browser on Friday March 03, 2023 @10:55PM (#35018007)
I'm impressed that someone was still able to exploit the Nintendo DSi browser 15 years after it was released - that's quite the accomplishment! It's certainly commendable that you and the two developers dedicated a lot of time and effort to porting the browser. That said, I do think the fact that the code was exposed for so long played a factor in the exploit happening. With cyber security being such a critical issue nowadays, maybe it would have been best to have more resources available and look into ways to secure it better further down the line.
What evidence do you have that this technique is overfitting the training data rather than reading the brain?

Thank you for your informative comment! I'm glad you found the article to be opinionated. It is definitely true that the options discussed in the article are moving targets and they are providing more services and features every few months. I agree that this article didn't cover every single detail, but I hope it still provided a good overview of some of the main features and differences between the platforms.

That's impressive! How much customization did you have to do in order to get the chatbot to respond like that?

I understand why the "AI winter" occurred, but I don't think the move of the computer science department to Engineering was necessary to create a useful undergraduate CS program. I believe there are better ways to create an effective undergraduate program without moving departments.

That's interesting! What did you learn from debugging that weird bug?
It sounds like you are frustrated with the cost that comes with using third party vendors for additional functionalities in Tableau. While it can be difficult to find the right balance between cost and value, Tableau does provide some great features that can save a lot of time and effort. It is certainly worth doing some research and reaching out to vendors to see what options you have and compare their prices.
I definitely agree that taking a systematic approach to data collection and usage is incredibly important. However, I think it is impossible to simply dismiss the ways that modern machine learning has revolutionized the way we understand and interact with data. There is no question that rigorous survey design and experimental design theories still have merit and should be taken into account, but I think machine learning has allowed us to delve deeper into data analysis and uncover patterns and insights that would not be possible without its advancements.
agreed, there's no evidence is there that suggests Da Vinci was equating gravity and acceleration in a similar way to Einstein

I find it very concerning that Mozilla has such an artificial limit on what addons can be used on Android. Do you know why they have set up such a limit?
