Wikileak published documents showing massive corruption in the democratic party. The big news organizations did not publish those leaks, they told their listeners it was illegal to even view them.
This is the exact opposite of all of my experience. Rotten Tomato scores never make sense, half of my top 50 movies have like a 1/10 score on RT, while thousands of average to absolute horrible films score 9-10. The problem is that Rotten Tomato does not even try to rate the movie, it just give a summery of the percentage of people who thought it was OK or better. Every single movie that gets any advertising dollars spent on it seems to score pretty high using this metric.
IMDB does not have the same issue. They do not have thousands of films scoring 100% (including every single "hit" film that year), and it does not tend to score decent films 0-10% just because their advertising budget was nill. It is far from perfect, but when a film scores 85-90% it is almost certain that a lot of people really liked the film, and not just because it is an uncontroversial crowd pleaser.
Restricting to the locations that the film is available would not make it impossible to game, but then nothing ever will. It will turn the potential millions of downvotes into hundreds or thousands (also you can just block proxies).
I was thinking more of the opposite. A doctor who is asked for a second opinion knows the patient does not want the same diagnosis. He knows that the patient is shopping around for the "best" diagnosis. He knows that the only way he is likely to be able to start treatment is to give a different diagnosis. I would say that medical diagnosis are complicated things that patients are not likely to be able to gauge correctly. If a patient is better at diagnosis than a doctor, and better able to tell if the correct one has been given, why even use doctors?
I think the actual diagnosis part will either have to be stripped or just considered raw data that a doctor can use to come to a diagnosis. As it stands now we do not have any certification program to allow anything to make medical diagnosis other than a medical doctor degree, and this tricorder would never pass the exams.
Fairly certain that drugs cost money to certify because they can harm the taker. A piece of software used in medical based calculations would not even need to be certified.
How does one calculate the damages a company suffered by being rendered unable to generate financial reports? Unless their business is generating financial reports, that does not seem like that would get in the way of producing whatever it is they produce. And if they do not know how much money they have, how can they ever estimate how much they lost?
Is greatest number really a good metric of success though? These are first and second-year students, 90% of them will drop out by the end of the year. What is the point of increasing a dropouts grade a few points? Perhaps the ones who do better on different schedules are the ones who will actually benefit from doing better in the class.
Wow I am really surprised that XBMC4Xbox is still going strong. My xbox failed awhile ago and is too old to handle these new video formats anyways. But even more surprising apparently most of the developers for openelec left for libreelec awhile ago. I do not know if Open caught up eventually, but apparently Libre is far from a minor offshoot.
Not necessarily. What is it looking for does not have to be explainable, it does not have to be a single thing and it can be fuzzy. Any AI good enough to not be tricked very easily is probably looking at hundreds of factors and weighing their importance. A good enough AI is doing as complex a job as you are or more so, and the reason we need real AI to do this task is that we cannot even quantize our own pattern recognition. Neural Networks are good at calculating complex stuff that we not even really have the mathematical syntax to talk about, Massively complex parallel fuzzy logic.
Their PC app really does not make sense. Kodi has its roots as a controller based interface on low res screens and is still great at that. It is not ideal for keyboard and mouse use, for sitting right next to a decent res screen. But as a OS and media library and player you can control from your couch with your remote it is pretty amazing.
Been using it since it was XMBC, and it was freaking amazing, it was revolutionary. Now their are alternative, but with Openelec, a full made to order OS, it again is pretty revolutionary. It's not just Ubuntu with Kodi pre installed, it is the OS.
If businesses did not like credit cards they would offer better cash payment options. But the only businesses that have any special rules for cash payments that i have heard of restrict the use of large denominations for in cash. I do not imagine businesses get coned out of goods with fake credit cards, but fake cash is a real issue, and the mint is not going to reimburse them.
I expect most ROI for drugs is best calculated over the drugs expected lifetime, if only because their lifetime is not likely to be very long for many drugs. They will be able to guess in broad strokes how long before a new improved drug comes out and makes this drug completely worthless.
I am sure their are cancer fields where new drugs are expected to last 6 months before they are replaced with something new.
Trillions of dollars are funneled into new drug research, so yes. spending billions to develop a drug that only a few hundred thousand will ever take (most of them receiving the drug for free because they are poor), is costly. Some drugs need to cost upwards of a million dollars per year just to make back the cost to produce said drugs.

Sometimes it is hard to figure out how anyone can be this stupid.

This was never a first amendment issue. It was an espionage vs whistle blower issue.
Maybe they took fewer sick days because they were always behind at work?

Nothing to do with Hollywood or Trolls. Just people pushing an political idea.

The lack of access to stable, predictable cash flows is the hard-to-see source of much of today's economic insecurity.
So Economic Insecurity is Positively Correlated to Economic Insecurity?

No.
They are still empty seats, an inefficiency in the system costs everyone one.
I have had my openelec PI for a while now. Will it have updated itself to this newest version, or do you need to do that yourself.
