I see a fair number of academic and government codes now appearing in github. That puts them under source control and make files. Sometimes bug management and documentation. These are all items mandatory in the software industry and used to sparse in crappy student code. It can also be good publicity for code authors in future job hunts.
At the AGU meeting meeting last month a talk said that 75 character message was optimal. Some ancient computers still have 80 character buffer. A short, direct message like "A nearby earthquake has just occurred. Take cover." Messages with more details could be broadcast later.
Damaging earthquakes have shorter warnings versus ballistic missles- 5 to 120 seconds vesus 17 minutes. It is based only a single station impulse be interpreted as an earthquake with a rough magnitude estimated. More precise determinations of quakes like at the NEIC require hitting several stations across the world. This is too late for a warning in most cases.
The US is fourth country to implement a quake alert system. (Painfully slow due to low funding.)
Comparable to Kroger prices, where I mainly shop. The other food looks expensive.
(I use WF mainly for fast food. One of the few places you can quickly get a wide choice of cooked veggies.)
We were both in the Palo Alto Macintosh developers user group. I was a Stanford student at the time. I dont remember anything out of the ordinary about hime other than his blue-box fame
Yes, but requires a super resolution of many cells and many generations to represent one logic gate. ( I dont know if anyone has constructed a minimum size configuration and/or proved its the smallest.)
It could be that universe is a simulation in a computer with much higher temporal and spatial resolution than our universe. The physics only need to simulated to a resolution of Planck's quantum of action. Beneath that we couldnt tell. The size of the computer in other universe could be vastly larger than our known universe then.
Its not really general purpose AI.
However, deep learning sometimes performs better than the procedural or statistical algorithms it replaces. That aspect isnt hyping.
Schoolboys may buy standard sizes off department store racks.
It often doesnt cost all that much more to go to a real [wo]menswear store and have clothing properly adjusted.
How many people ever wrote:
int time1 = clock();
int time2 = clock();
if(time2-time1>threshhold) do_something();
This could fail in 2038. A good coder would call an interval library that checked for rare, fatal cases. But I will not reveal that I ever wrote sloppy code ðYS
A recent case relayed malware using your contact list and the Subject "sad news". Who would not be tempted to read that piece of mail?
More obvious attempts like a free Amazon coupon from a non-Amazon return address address are easy to ignore.
If a clever piece of software accurately predicts destructive behavior, should authorities step in even though it has not happened yet?
I could see arguments both ways.
I have been observing experiments at SIGGRAPH several decades. Pixels resolution has gotten close to reality. Color systems like Samsungs are getting good. Six colors add some. What is really mindblowing is good dynamic range- capture bright light sources and deep shadows. A good HDR display starts to look like that desired window.
Its not just the monitor. The full system requires a compatible camera and encoding protocol. The recently announced HDMI standard upgrade helps.
I am impressed by the speed and accuracy of object recognition in the google ML self-driving system. These could examine to objects being purchased as a security backup, much like supers use weight now.
For the economics to work. Its 7 to 15 cents now according to RFID Journal (google).
At one time Walmart was talking about rfid-tagging everything, but settled at the pallet level. I dont know what the bottleneck was.
I like my library system for automatically checking out and returning books.

Houses fall 25% or 50% and no one wants to buy it or is able to buy it. The cycle repeats if you live long enough.

Looks like the market is agreeing
An adult would respect the contributions of all parts of the industry: hardware, software, businessmen, designers...

On average each parent contributes 30 mutations to offspring. But fathers contribution is approximately one per year of age.

Excellent documentary about the interaction of Lego user clubs and the parent company. I hope to attend a lego convention one of these years.

Does anyone know how many words or phrases you have record for a personal assistant?
Shout "Hey Siri" in a room of techies or young people and see a third of their phones answer back. I've seen this done.

People have been looking for non-human sentience for a long time: ghosts, gods, aliens, smart animals and machines.
Obama expressed an interest copying Gore and doing something in Silicon Valley. Hope he doesnt get food led like Kissinger and Schultz (Theranos).
HAL was made at University of IIinois. In the 1960s they constructed the Illiac, a multi-core supercomputer. HAL became sentient in 1992.
Paying nine figures hoping for 2019 or so. With mulriple countries chasing the exaflop, so good ideas may come out of it.
Ive seen a number of traffic accident articles where the vehicle brand in the accident also appears in the ad. Like when a Jeep ran over a sunbather.
