DEAR GOD NOES NOT AN AGING FIELD! It would be impossible to safely contain by putting it on a tower in the middle of nowhere or something like that! And imagine the horror if such a thing got near a supercomputer!
That's like saying you're not sure whether it's worse to lose control of a landspeed car at 600kph or a go-kart at 60kph. One allows time for humans to react.
Allowing mulligans and do-overs when well-connected firms make mistakes is only going to reinforce the perception that Wall Street is a casino rigged in favor of the rich.
1 second is a human-relevant timescale that removes the inherent advantage that the machines have, this is a great improvement over the current situation.
Not enough to cause a problem for dinosaurs, just keep them close to the equator and they'd be fine. Now if you wanted to bring back the mega-insects that lived when there was greater O2 levels, yeah they'd have to stay in a tank.
Came here to say this. Even wooly mammoths frozen in ice haven't fared too well. The current plan for restoring them involves manual DNA repair and breeding with modern elephants.
Fun news but without a good DNA source this is quite impossible.
Heat sucks donkey balls, ruins quality of life HARD. Any place that is hot, sucks, even if it seems like a nice place for a winter vacation it gets old fast and you'll be begging to have your few months of winter in return for pleasant summers back instead of year-round scorching heat. Fuck heat forever.
Actually yes there once was, sort of. I can't find the story for the life of me but it was something about some artist's website or something, he had pics of a man shoving his finger into his urethra and a man being fisted on the page that was linked from the summary, and there was no warning whatsoever. I think we tagged it "goatseinsummary" to try to warn people.

To save money all basic research will now be conducted by the Insane Clown Posse.
This is Canada so I guess they'd call them a buncha hosers (eh?) :-P
Google does long-term work in secret but always downplays it and...keeps it secret because it scares investors.
It's both. I think 10secs would be a good place to start for an interval.
Every time you violate thermodynamics, the universe kills a kitten.

Even your bullshit is full of bullshit.
I was genuinely thinking to myself "a real job advert would ask for more FPGA and .NET experience."
That what they get paid the big bucks for. It takes an experienced business leader to make these decisions.

Good, I hope everybody finds out.
I wonder how long until they get quicksave and quickload hotkeys.

Good point, I can't imagine what the benefits of having huge amounts of money would be without an accompanying unfair advantage in the marketplace.
Also didn't mention crocodiles.
Meant Stegosaurus but Ankylosaurus has some nasty bludgeony bits too.
And some of them have stabby bits like Triceratops and Anklyosaurus.
The lesson I got was to make your fences strong and tall enough that they still work without an electroshock deterrent.
Maybe it'll eat that fat chick and her prettyboy boyfriend first and make for a much more interesting movie :D

Suuuure he just doesn't want any protests or government interference until his plan is finished and now his lawyer's put a cap on the leaks ;-)

Utahraptors, on the other hand...
Is that you can drive away from it.
