That is why we built jerry.ai to create the easiest experience for our users. Enabled by disruptive technologies, jerry.ai aims for the one-click user experience in financial product offerings which traditionally requires users to fill out long forms. Based in Silicon Valley, we are looking for engineering talent to join our team in Canada.

In 1964, Bell showed that an entirely classical experimenter can certify that two spatially-separated parties share quantum entanglement by playing a game with them. In this talk, I will survey a recent line of research that combines Bell’s work with classical techniques from the study of interactive proof systems, to  design games that certify not just the presence of entanglement but specific, many-qubit states and operators. I will give an outline of the main techniques used as well as applications to delegated quantum computation and to quantum complexity theory, including a quantum analog of the classical PCP theorem.

“The junk comes in on shipping containers, trucked over from the port,” said Bee, a low-level administrator at an electronics scrapyard in Thailand (“Bee” is a pseudonym she provided in lieu of her actual name). When the Chinese government intensified its crackdown early last year, many e-waste brokers scattered into China’s backyard. These lawless recyclers quickly set up shop in Malaysia, Vietnam and Thailand, countries with good ports, cheap labor and lax of US recycling pile up as China restricts imports

The transnational, e-waste trade is now in total disarray — and amid the chaos, brokers are fanning out across Asia, seeking new territory to exploit the weak and pollute the skies.

As you can see from the mix of data and anecdotes below, it appears that compliance costs have been astronomical; individual “data rights” have led to unintended consequences; “privacy protection” seems to have undermined market competition; and there have been large unseen — but not unmeasurable! Here is the latest data on cases and fines released by the European Data Protection Board:

GDPR can be thought of as a privacy “bill of rights.” And the right to opt-out of data collection creates a free-rider problem where users who opt-in subsidize the privacy of those who opt-out.

But here is what frustrated city employees and residents do not know: A key component of the malware that cybercriminals used in the attack was developed at taxpayer expense a short drive down the Baltimore-Washington Parkway at the National Security Agency, according to security experts briefed on the case. It is not just in Baltimore. Security experts say EternalBlue attacks have reached a high, and cybercriminals are zeroing in on vulnerable American towns and cities, from Pennsylvania to Texas, paralyzing local governments and driving up costs.

Instead of work being distributed across community members, we’re seeing a shift toward casual contributors: developers who make occasional, one-off contributions to a project but otherwise consider themselves to be passive users. Instead of a community of active contributors, open source often looks more like a few developers playing air traffic controller to thousands of users who are lightly involved. Tarr cited a popular 2013 blog post by developer Felix Geisendörfer, which recommends “the pull request hack” as a way to reduce the burden of single maintainership: “Whenever somebody sends you a pull request, give them commit access to your project.”

The answer in physics—and music, Berezovsky argues—is called “phase transitions” and comes about because of a balance between order and disorder, or entropy, he said. “We can look at a balance—or a competition—between dissonance and entropy of sound—and see that phase transitions can also occur from disordered sound to the ordered structures of music,” he said. In other words, the same universal principles that guide the arrangement of atoms when they organize into a crystal from a gas or liquid are also behind the fact that “phase transitions occur in this model from disordered sound to discrete sets of pitches, including the 12-fold octave division used in Western music.”

Here is a demo, it will take a while for the browser to load the page since it has to load a large bundled js file, that file contains full code of the jlua compiler. Making a compiling service which runs jlua at server side can speed up the loading time, but it’s limited by my low memory vhost. The demo is naturally built with jlua and Vue.js, in other words we can use Lua within Single File Component, for example:

here is the source of the demo.

Spacecraft orbiting the Earth have remained in space since the 1950’s and may last for centuries more, but spacecraft orbiting close to the moon can crash within weeks. The reason for this is the lunar gravity field is lumpy, with geological features making the smooth orbits of space probes distort until they hit the surface.
