I'm hoping Richard and Erlich's degeneration is a deliberate choice rather than inattention. It could be 'success/money changes people.'

Y-Hat posted:That's almost certainly what they want. Facebook, Google, and Apple already have a lot of people's information. From a competitive standpoint, Microsoft would be fools to not want a piece of that. Of course, there's the fact that this is creepy as all hell and has the ability to be abused for nefarious purposes, but ethical considerations don't come into play here. The American Deep State, powered by Microsoft™ Rexides posted:As for the show itself, that was quite the curveball they did with Laurie. I mean, all things considered it was a very rational thing to do when you are a dried up, emotionless husk of a person, but right now there is no way to just ignore this when there is any interaction involving her. She is basically the season's villain now. Reminds me of Spock's ex-wife. Perfectly logical.

Yeah. Bighead's follies were that of the bumbling Nicest Guy In The World. Erlich's follies were that of maliciously exploiting the bumbling Nicest Guy In The World. Poor Bighead, who ran into 'family dynasty' money and then lost it all thanks to having no idea what to do with it and thanks to being easily exploited by someone he thought was a friend with suitable expertise. Also, umbrella insurance. If you're ever (really loving) loaded, get umbrella insurance.

BIG HEADLINE posted:What I don't get, is that it seems Gavin decided to pull the "I SHALL HAVE MY REVENGE" gambit before he even signed the "we're sorry we almost shitcanned you" contract they were pitching. Next episode should open on that point with Action Jack Barker, CEO of Hooli.

Edit: ^^Booo, it was hilarious! Also, TJ Miller's being overused. He's fat and depressed and his character sucks. I'm with the terminator guy. The way Pied Piper's network functions, it sounds like some kind of World Brain whose long-term memory is your file storage.

If real, shouldn't something like pied piper be applicable to internet backbones? It's like instant encryption and decryption and you can interact with compressed data. They should be making billions already by shrinking all internet traffic to a fraction of its size.

Phenotype posted:That's exactly where they were at the start of the show -- they had Richard's compression algorithm and they were trying to get it funded and worrying about Gavin Belson claiming the IP. I've read that it's (intentionally) difficult to do business in China without a Chinese business partner. They could want an 'in' on cooking apps.

If they bring Gavin in, it'll look like they ganked his career to open up his schedule. I want this to happen, and I want Bighead to get credit.

Boris Galerkin posted:One thing I don't get is why did they make it a point to show that it was an actual human that did the tedious job of marking a picture as a penis or not? I thought that was the whole point of machine learning to let the computer do it? You have to train them first. Iirc, you plug a bunch of functions together (outputs to inputs) and apply weights to the values as they pass between functions. That's a mile-up perspective on what a neural network is. To train it, you provide it with a large amount of known inputs and outputs and let it adjust its weights to connect each pair. After feeding it millions upon millions of dicks, it should have rejiggered itself into something which can reliably classify unknown inputs as dick or not dick. And this is way easier than developing some kind of algorithmic representation of the Platonic Dick. pentyne posted:Did I miss anything or were the movies Bighead showing all heavily featuring a tech aspect, like You've Got Mail and The Social network. It could seem like he's deliberately showing people those movies to showcase technology connecting people or the immutable nature of the modern internet and have people fall over themselves to talk about how insightful and mysterious he is.
