As a fun aside, it seems to me that the only thing in nature that is either growing or dying (as in, not biologically successful if it ceases growing) is cancer.
Who gives a shit about Trump's worthless disorganized words? Actions count, and all Trump's ever done in office is take a greasy KFC dump on LGBT rights. Obama did better. Deal with it.
Trump doesn't like any person or group so much that he wouldn't throw them under the bus if he finds it beneficial or even handily distracting for a moment. If he somehow stays in office for a full four years (even though it looks like there's a bombshell in his tax returns that he's desperate to keep hidden at all costs), he'll eventually even get around to his core supporters.
Engine and airframe efficiency are deep into the diminishing returns at this point. A new aircraft isn't going to be much of an improvement over the Concorde in those areas. The Concorde could still pass for an ultra-high-tech plane today, avionics aside.
I mean that technology prices come down but energy prices don't so much. An average Joe would have no trouble affording the energy to run that cell phone, big screen TV, or car when they were new. An average Joe couldn't afford their share of the energy needed to propel an aircraft to supersonic speeds when the Concorde was new, and still can't. Probably never will short of fusion energy and a Shipstone battery. That is what keeps supersonic flight out of the average Joe's hands.
Yes, a small bunch of liberals. So what? Does a handful of nutballs on the left help you sleep better in the presence of pervasive, mainstream reality-denial on the right?
Indeed, facts have a well-known liberal bias which only seems to become more pronounced over time! Those fact-checking sites don't even acknowledge alternative facts! Luckily there's conservapedia and infowars to bring some balance to the situation.
On my work PC, I watched one video by a centipede on Youtube. Not about anything political in fact. But since then, I've been getting white nationalist videos suggested to me. I wondered if it acts similarly for jihadist content.
Are you kidding? Those things use BMW parts and require extensive disassembly for most repair jobs. I don't know how non-drug-dealers afford them!:-P He did also have an Aventador...
But more seriously, I'm wondering how Alexandre Cazes wasn't locked up immediately. All the information needed to tie ownership of AlphaBay to his real name was publicly available from day 1. I would've expected law enforcement to lock him up before lunch on the same day AlphaBay was launched. Law enforcement either dropped the ball badly here or was playing the long game to a degree that is clearly unethical.
Why does that "need" to happen? If there was actually a "need" for secure and expensive software the marketplace would already be providing it.
There is - in aircraft control systems and banking. But everything else can get fucked apparently.
But you could look at insecure code as a form of pollution. Companies saving money through irresponsible behavior that makes the environment more dangerous for everyone.
I'm aware that Ward Churchill has fraudulently claimed that the 1837 outbreak was caused by an attempt at genocide by the US military using plague blankets. However, that was not the only incident. In fact there is hard evidence of intentional genocide using plague blankets as bioweapons against the native Americans by the British military.
It wasn't an act of terrorism, but it may have been an attempt at genocide with bioweapons...but it's not clear whether it was an intentional use of bioweaponry or not.
It didn't work for Google with the EU, but it's worth a try. Break up Amazon into different companies under a new parent company. They could call it Buy N Large.
You could put your whole life savings in a backpack, and if you didn't let anyone see that your backpack was full of cash, you'd be in no greater danger at all than carrying an equal volume of anything else in your backpack. But what if someone just randomly stole your backpack? The odds of this happening weren't any greater than if you packed the backpack full of dead weasels, but you would've just lost your life savings.
So I usually don't carry more than $200 in my wallet to keep the risk down, but there's nothing inherently dangerous about carrying cash, unless you let other people know how that you're carrying a remarkably large amount of cash. Flashing large amounts of cash is dangerous.
You've correctly interpreted what the training data appears to be saying. It appears, by proxy, to rationalize racism as simply biology. However, there's another factor that's not in the system at all, and that's the human bias factor that has fudged all the outcomes to create this appearance. If it were quantifiable and included as an input, there would be strong correlations to race.
Besides, we as their creator are flawed beings so inherently, our creations will be also flawed.
This is the key. And you don't have to spew 8chan-style garbage at an AI to "make it racist." It will pick it up from humans on its own, from training data built with human prejudices. One of the most amazing things about AI is how good it is at copying human biases without having any of the relevant inputs. You may not teach your AI that race is a thing, but it will find from training data that certain factors have some correlation with a certain outcome and it will copy that behavior, and those factors will turn out to correlate very closely with race and nothing else. Boom, racist AI.
Came here to say this. Even wasteful rich people think Vertu's phones are silly, it was that bad. The assistant service is redundant and there are jeweled phone cases out there for the latest high-end mainstream smartphones.

Quite the opposite, he didn't care about gays during election time but then he "evolved" on that issue and ended DADT.

It was also widely used when the ISP privacy rules were reversed.
Don't compare the Koch brothers to George Soros. Soros doesn't spend anywhere near as much as those two.

Note that none of those things have ever required amounts of energy to operate that the average Joe couldn't afford.

Nothing beats MS Paint for casual doodling.
I make about $1.7m/yr between my porn star and supercar test driver gigs.

Maybe he meant using an ASIC-based brute-forcing supercomputer like WindsorGreen.
