Stranger Things ROCKS "Master of Puppets"!

Athlétique et intrépide, Giovanna Amati n’a qu’une idée en tête: devenir pilote automobile. Pour l’heure, la jeune femme de 19 ans vit enchainée dans un caisson obscur et insonorisé de 4m². Daniel Nieto est son geôlier attitré. Une nuit, il entre dans la cage à visage découvert...

Enlèvement à l’italienne
Rome. Fin des années 1970. Daniel Nieto, un braqueur marseillais, est en cavale dans l’Italie des années de plomb où le rapt est une véritable industrie. Il devient kidnappeur et enlève la fille d’un riche industriel du cinéma. Une relation contre-nature se noue entre l’otage et son geôlier. Elle sera fatale à ce dernier.

Liebe Hörerinnen und Hörer,

gestartet sind Jochen Gebauer und Dom Schott mit der gleichen, heiligen Mission: Einen treuen Kult errichten und vier böse Gottheiten vom Thron stoßen, das erklärte Ziel von Cult of the Lamb. Die Wege aber, die die beiden dafür einschlugen, hätten unterschiedlicher nicht sein können. Und so kommt das Duo nach vielen Stunden wieder zusammen, um über das große Kot-Müsli-Fiasko, Opferrituale, unheilige Festessen, Hamsterräder und süchtig machende Arbeitsroutinen zu sprechen - und ihren Kultführungsstil miteinander zu vergleichen.

Viel Spaß!
Dom & Jochen

In this episode of the O’Reilly Bots Podcast, I speak with Tom Coates, co-founder of Thington, a service layer for the Internet of Things. Thington provides a conversational, messaging-like interface for controlling devices like lights and thermostats, but it’s also conversational at a deeper level: its very architecture treats the interactions between different devices like a conversation, allowing devices to make announcements to any other device that cares to listen.

In this episode of the O’Reilly Bots Podcast, I talk about deep learning at the extremes of scale and computing power with Prabhat, who leads the data and analytics group at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory’s supercomputing center. If you’re working on commercial AI, it’s worth glancing across the divide at scientific AI.

In this episode of the Bots Podcast, we peer into the giant companies that are beginning to adopt messaging and bots. My guest is Tom Hadfield, founder of Message.io, a service that syndicates bots across many different messaging platforms.

In this episode of the Bots Podcast, Chris Messina and I reflect on what Facebook has become, the role that it now plays in our lives, and what it all means for developers. We recorded this discussion shortly after attending Facebook’s F8 Developer Conference in San Jose.

In this episode of the O’Reilly Bots Podcast, Pete Skomoroch and I talk to Jason Laska and Michael Akilian of Clara Labs, creator of a virtual assistant—Clara—that schedules meetings and interacts in natural language through email.

E-mail is, to me, a highly promising (and somewhat underrated) venue for bots. Messaging is growing quickly, but e-mail is still the standard way to communicate within businesses and especially between businesses. E-mail conventions are somewhat standardized, and much of it is highly routinized—automatically generated reports, receipts, etc.—so it’s ripe for automation.

Laska, who leads the machine learning efforts at Clara Labs, and Akilian, the company’s co-founder and CTO, talk about the reality of developing an AI-driven product, and explain Clara’s human-in-the-loop system. “People are still there to do some of the most challenging aspects of this work, and that’s exactly what you want to use people for,” says Laska.

Le sommier qui grince. Les cris et gémissements de la porte à-côté. Le plafond qui menace de s'écrouler. Pourquoi la vie sexuelle de nos voisins est-elle aussi envahissante ? Comment une activité privée finit-elle par devenir publique ? Ils prennent du Viagra ou des amphétamines ? Et surtout : est-ce que par hasard... on n'aimerait pas entendre - et écouter - nos voisins ?

NY state of mind

O'Reilly Media spreads the knowledge of innovators. At O’Reilly, a big part of our business is paying attention to what’s new and interesting in the world of technology. We have a pretty good record at having anticipated some of the big technology developments in recent history. For instance, we launched the first commercial Web site, GNN, in 1993; we organized the meeting at which the term “open source” was first adopted; we were early investors in Blogger, which helped launch the blogging revolution; and more recently, our Web 2.0 conference launched a world-wide meme. We call this predictive sense the “O’Reilly Radar.” And while we’re certainly not always right, we are, at least, good at making interesting guesses.

Our methodology is simple: we draw from the wisdom of the alpha geeks in our midst, paying attention to what’s interesting to them, amplifying these weak signals, and seeing where they fit into the innovation ecology. Add to that the original research conducted by our Research team, and you start to get a good picture of what the technology world is thinking about.
