Document your correspondences to your boss when you notify vital security issues. Make sure your e-mails are not only backed-up, but you get read receipts or something showing your boss opened the e-mail (and might have read it). Keep those receipts archived. When poop hits the fan, at least, you are protected.
What would be better is an authoritative body charged with the mandate of inspecting Internet infrastructure and determining if they are vulnerable or not and provide them with solutions to fix their issues. Of course, someone has to pay for this, but still, I think it would make more sense. But that's just my opinion.
Wouldn't it be more efficient if the drones were in space, away from our atmosphere? And if one can harness power in such a way that it can be wirelessly transmitted, wouldn't that also be "in the wrong hands" a weapon of some rather next level form of mass destruction?
without a product is pretty useless.. I could watch the last 20 yrs worth of sci-fi and patent a crap load of ideas with theoretical concepts, but, no implementation means nothing.
the problem isn't that I wouldn't trust a Robot Driver, but, how can you be sure it won't get hacked? or malfunction? Some things should always be left to be in control by a human. Intuition isn't something a robot can acquire.
If the developer is the owner of the software and has provided warranty for the software and/or as a selling points, uses the accuracy and reliability of the software and, assuming this, that the users of the product are following all the rules and guidelines and the software fails.. then, there could be a point towards this.
So, this becomes a question of what are you selling, how much are you willing to back it up and finally, if there are any disclaimers, are they easily understood?
Nothing is infallible. Considering the platforms being used, etc.. It's hard to make anything fool proof, so, how much QA was done? and are people using the product as it is intended on the devices it is meant to work on?
And let's talk a professional software with proper SDLC. That means there is QA, UAT, PROD, etc.. It's not just the developer.
So, this can easily be a grayish area.
There is allegedly a link to post book reviews.. and I can't find it and can't get anything useful in Google. The FAQ page refers to it, but that's it, so, how does one post a book review?
I just think that robots will more than likely be treated like a house, a car, a boat for that matter. It's a proprietary ownership type of feeling, we call all of these things "she".. for your car, "she's a beauty, she can go 0 to 60 in 3 seconds.. " you know.. I mean.. the bottom line is that I would find it hard to believe that IN combat, there would be "emotional' attachment to a robot. More than anything else, fear that it broke and/or someone stole it, etc.. What if you have a douche bag commanding officer put the fear of god in you if the robot doesn't come back intact, etc.. I don't know.. I just think that you are fighting for your life, you can't be emotionally attached to a thing, you just use the thing.
A dog is a pet, it has emotions among other characteristics that it shares with humans and as such a dog's loyalty is akin to love of its owner and vice-versa. But a robot? It is just a thing. Now, I don't think it's an 'emotional' bond between robot and human, but just a proprietary reaction of valuing the robot as a possession. It's like people and their cell phones, which they will even sleep with. It's not the love of the cell phone, it's just the dependency of having it for use whenever they see fit.
true regeneration. It's that simple. If you can literally reprogram your cells, then you can use this for maintenance and/or repairs. Certainly this can mean cutting to the quick when it comes to issues such as aging. This is literally a gold mine. If such knowledge can become applied in a practical way, this can become real preventive medicine. It would have the ability to halt aging. It would also have the ability to regenerate any part of us we have, thus eliminate the need for organ donors. As long as the human brain is well, this could more than likely make us rethink our entire way we deal with medicine. This can become a big deal.
Morphing cells, so, this can have the amazing implication of fixing pretty much anything, if not enhancing and/or even modifying your cells.. Can this help with aging?

it will find the US flag from 1969.. :)
a super-smart kryptonian white cell? :) lets' just make sure we stay under a yellow sun! :)

Ignorance is bliss....

I won't be working for Google anytime soon! :)
yeah, nothing is perfect.
not the point..but kudos for being a wiseass.

I used to love my BlackBerry.. I bet they would have wished to have been bought by Microsoft instead.
Is it worth it? Does the ROI actually make everybody more productive?
Phasers set on stun probably is the green way to go for energy savings! :)
Reads like Michael Weston.. for sure!
Burn Notice? :)
... this apparatus is part and parcel of the car and that dismantling actually makes the car useless, people will find ways to get around it.

Still, if the age and quality are not one and the same being that an old organ would behave as a new one..
