Moralists do serve a purpose. What happens then if the said therapy also contains a switch that turns the formerly depressed individuals into fearless mind controlled soldiers? Plenty people in this world would love to have that switch in their hands. In another word, would you like to join the collective?
"US District Judge William K. Sessions III said the man had waived his right against self-incrimination when he initially cooperated with border agents."
e.g. it isn't so much of an issue with what the court order asked of the defendant, but rather, an issue of if he waived his rights.
basically, don't cooperate with the police/feds/border agents to start off with. plead the fifth no matter what.
Of course, in the real world, as long as you have either money or power you can get away doing what ever you want without consequences. Just like how most parents do exactly the opposite of what they tell their kids and still get away with it without suffering any consequences. The matter of fact is, rules and consequences are just devices to keep people in line. They are controlling schemes. The matter of fact is, you don't need to use these schemes. The same result can be achieved through respect and reasoning. But i guess most parents don't really want that since it requires real parenting.
Wait, what?! You are not making sense. Culture revolution alone doesn't qualify crowning "historically repressing individualism" to China in GP's statements. And since when did people copied products in Culture revolution?
This is nonsense. Answer me this, How did China invent paper, compass, press printing, and gunpowder then? How did Zhen He travel the world in leviathan sized ships and even left traces in California then? Just because China repressed individuality doesn't equate to repressing innovation. In fact there are many many innovations in China most of us probably never even heard of. The only problem is China hasn't been applying its innovative power toward the right path. People innovate to copy the look and feel of others product, they also innovate to break any sort of protection and drm schemes that we have in our products. This is really a legal policy issue. People are not properly motivated to innovate and create new products, better products. Many local Chinese business operate on the idea where they just have to copy what is popular. This in term cuts down their operating cost because the basis of the idea already exist and the marketing has already been done. The government should give more incentive for entirely novel innovations, and that is how China can reinvent itself and become a real top-tier player in the world.
Speak of Pandora's box, replacing the animal DNA with human DNA in an animal cell is pretty much like taking out a big chunk of code out of your text editor in binary form, replace them with another chunk of code from your image editing software, without any understanding of what exactly is the processor doing, and hope the end result will actually execute and lets you edit images. TFA indicated that the right genes are getting turned off. What we really should worry about is what genes are getting turned on since our DNA is littered with inactive segments of virus RNAs. We may stumble on something that we don't know how to deal with.
ZOMG Iranians have reached space age, we must re-assert our technical superiority by building seven invincible mechas, and we shall call them GUNDAMS! *back drop music*
Well, the problem isn't so much that there are enforcement of EULA, but rather, a problem of EULA should include certain "software bundle" that is hidden in the long list of terms and conditions. Take for example, when you install some games you agree to install certain anti-cheating software. Now there isn't so much of a problem when the game is running this anti-cheating software will be active. However, many anti cheating software load themselves into memory and refuse to terminate when the game ends. Well, in that case, they are taking resources away from your other programs and most likely interfere with other software you use such as debuggers. At that point if you go after the game company, they would go "but you agreed to the EULA". Obviously, there is a need for some sort of regulation around, to make sure this kind of thing doesn't happen. Note I am using the anti cheating software as a light example. There are many extreme cases where accepting software install will expose your system to a myriad of adware, spambot, and spyware that operate in legal gray area.
heat to a certain point, the joint points melt, connecting two neighboring leads, and congratulations, you have a short... hooray for phononics transistor!
please note that this is by no means a full understanding of how intelligence works. However it provides answers to many of your questions and misunderstandings as to why we think the way we do and how it is being done. You may even go a step further and actually implement many of the concepts discussed in the post. A side note, this will run much better in general purpose processing on graphics processor due to the threading nature of how it gets done. Basically it consist of parsing and threaded searching on a indexed categorized weighted directed cyclic graph. You think about bunch of things when you think of the number 2 because multiple search threads fire off at the same time toward different paths connected to your parsed input. what makes decision for you what information returned is important are competing categories/returned data in a heap.
Now if only there are 14 year term copyrights... oh wait... copyright concerning work for hire lasts 95 years here, I must be missing something ginormous; and you, my friend, missed my sarcasm by light years.
Right, Generic manufactures, Excuse me, who the fuck are you? You deserve free access to products producing methodologies that might have cost someone a hundred million dollars to produce?
You might have a better argument with knowledge. But no, you do not have a fundamental right to be profiting at someone else's expense. Sorry.
well, at least we know your argument can be used to go against public domain as a whole.

Yes, but can it run folding@home?

to utilize these servers to make you money is opening up a spamming business, but you aren't that evil, right?

They also learn to scheme behind your back when you are not watching, or shoot your face like that halo addict kid did.

hey, are you saying AI has a flavor? i don't think /b/ and intelligence belong together like that
to address your flawed understanding of intelligence, i am going to have to refer you back to one of my previous post.
