  1. Re:Not Really a GA on MIT & Harvard On Brain-Inspired A.I. Vision · · Score: 2, Informative

    Ok, just skimmed the paper. First impressions: it's a good idea. The problem I see is that, after finding a great model, they have absolutely no clue as to why that one works. That is, a functional theory isn't improved by this kind of work; though it is indeed promising and the theory can be improved if someone can understand what the heck that model is doing.

    If I were Google, I'd simply create some strange little errors in the search engine for everybody using those carriers, in a way that it will be blamed on them.

    Then eventually people would find out, and BURN google. The thing about google is that they keep their lawyers in the basement where they belong. First come the top guys, then PR, then engineers, then the chefs, then the massage parlor people, then the lawyers. In other companies, lawyers overrule PR, that's why we have the weekly slashdot streisand effect. Jesus, Sergey and Brin actually included "Don't be evil" in their IPO filings! The lawyers were effing nuts about that one. It would be like Obama saying "OMG ponies!" in his inauguration; or something to the effect.

  8. sudo gedit robots.txt on Murdoch-Microsoft Deal In the Works · · Score: 4, Interesting
    What? This is the best news to have come in quite a while: One desperate monopoly wasting dollars (after throwing out 5000 employees--think of the wasted karma) to make a desperate company (bleeding money) lose traffic and the users that actually like them. Sudo gedit robots.txt. Insert password, beach! That I want to see. It's the coolest thing to ever happen to Microsoft, Fox News, and MySpace, all at once. I for one hope it goes through and, for the sake of world peace, I hope Google never mentions Tortious Interference and let us have some well deserved popcorn.

    If anything, this one is a killer deal!

    How about the CNN story on proof of Bigfoot? Or Cnn's fail in the iranian election? I used to be a giant fan of CNN, today I've moved on to BBC/The Economist/Blogs. Even Slashdot is more reliable than those idiots. And no, I'm not new here: I browse at +4.

  13. Re:Doesn't look good for Nvidia on NVIDIA To Exit Chipset Business · · Score: 1

    It's probably going to cost a ton too.

    Sure it will, but it's meant as a replacement for a clusterf*ck of metal that costs in the millions. If it can compete with small supercomputers, they have a good chance IMO. They're also attacking from below with Tegra, and with ChomeOS running on ARM, so I think Nvidia is a company to watch.

  14. Re:Intel? on NVIDIA To Exit Chipset Business · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I think this is a clever ploy to make Intel play nice with Nvidia. By "letting go" of the market, true or not, Nvidia sends a message that Intel is a monopoly, which puts Intel in a much worse position (remember the EU) than Intel has when competing with Nvidia in the chipset scenario. Obviously, it's impossible to know what's going to happen. But if I were at the top @ Intel, I'd be freaking out a little, for this tiny little company "we have crushed" (that's what Nvidia makes it look like) will get us into the spotlight from regulators. I'm gonna go get some popcorn.
