Online rights are already on level with human rights. i.e.: ignored by governments, cried about by NGOs, impossible to defend, trampled upon with no consequence,...
I mean... We did already agree that torturing and killing people was bad, right?
Why do we have to have doors? A simple chalk line in the ground with the text "here starts my home" should suffice.
Why do we have money, credit cards, IDs, contracts,...
The inherent unreliability of human beings does impose a cost on all human activity. On the other hand, we've advanced a great deal since everyone had to defend their life with sticks and stones on a regular basis.
Can we just drop all the faux political drama and talk about, I don't know, programming or something?
All of that stuff about programming is just academic masturbation. It has been for years. It is not going to change, because those with the power to change it aren't about to.
The oligarchs who control our CEOs, own us completely. It is too late to stop them. It is a waste of time to complain and dangerous to resist.
Yes, you will indeed be accused of being sexist, because you are one.
From the moment when you think of "women" or even "feminists" as a single minded entity, with a single definition for a concept, you reveal that you indeed possess the common flaw of oversimplifying the world in at least one of the many possible ways.
There's no such thing as "what women think", just as there is not such a thing as "what human beings think".
Thank you. I don't understand how this is not the automatic response in most posts.
Where I live, if someone gets into a bar with one of these things, he'll lose some hundreds of dollars as soon as he crosses paths with the first jealous husband/boyfriend. If he's lucky, he won't also lose a couple of teeth.

You must be new here.
900 year old news? That's nothing. Wait until you discover trupes.
You wretched nit.
I'd keep on reading Slashdot only for the colorful yet elevated vocabulary I learn here.
No, we won't. Because we already have no control on whether we give control or keep it.
You'll have to be ok with that being only rule 2.
Rule 1 of the Wb Magna Carta is: you do not speak of Web Magna Carta.
Rule 3 is: Profit!
that it becomes on a level with human rights?

Who's going to know what they were named a thousand years from now, and how many times will those names be changed by people yet to be born
Outside of America it's pretty common to live in places named thousands of years ago.

Jokingly.
withdrew his scheduled talk
That was a close one. Fortunately he withdrew his scheduled talk. Now it's impossible that anyone will ever have that information ever.
Since his lab is under supervision of the French government, he was required to review his findings with authorities.
So... There are several people in possession of a information that has a value and that has been publicly identified as valuable.
No problem. Governments only hire people immune to corruption.
The end of innovation kills capitalism.
If technological innovation slows down, we'll have to promote marketing innovation.
The point is to make people happier with "the new", it doesn't matter how.
How could people be confused by that?
I mean... It's clearly waaay too small to carry people!
Unless it's the bus for the orphanage.
Well, given that 77% of Americans believe in the existence of angels, I don't know what anyone expected.

I never said it was acceptable. I predicted it would happen.
My understanding is that checking an output of a proof assistant/generator is a trivial matter (i.e., a trained monkey should be able to do it).
That's not much of a standard. A trained monkey could also write the entire works of Shakespeare*.
*: As long as you had enough of them**.
**: Monkeys, not Shakespeares. If you had infinite Shakespeares I guess they could peal a banana, or something.
People are mad about the cameras too. But the cameras are less fragile and the people who put them are harder to find.
The Glass will give those mad people the chance to address their anger in a less passive way.
Except acting "rich" and "arrogant" in a Rolls Royce won't send you to the nearest hospital.

When alone I play Go online (at KGS, DGS or online-go.com) or KSP.
When some friends are online, we still play Diablo3, Torchlight, Borderlands2, ... We'll try anything cooperative.
Don't worry. He's just not part of the audience.
If must be. The alternative would be incoherent with the his alleged ability to write.
Unless that's more expensive than finding greener power sources.
Like "lawyer combustion" or "woman's scorn"
