" terms suited to his personal needs is a sort of stalinist," and you would be wrong.
That's probably why the rest of your comment are about Marx...and also wrong.
Marx was right; the methods imposed were wrong.
If anything Marx was 100 or so years ahead of his time. Soon, robots will be doing menial work. They already to complex work.
So, what happens to the millions that can not have a job becasue either that skill set is no longer need, and skills that are need already have an overabundance of qualified people? Mark, and communism's only flaw is it depends on people to do needed work, even when people don't want to. All of the issue coming our of the former Soviet Union had that at it's root cause. If robots worked the fields, and dug up the coal, they wouldn't have had nearly as many problems.
Kurzweil is obsessed with it for the same reason people are obsessed with heaven. They don't want to die.
I like when people who have no science and rational argument have to resort to " throw away everything that makes human life worth living" to create some sor of emotion based foothold for their fallacious arguments~
"t vitamin C will prevent or help treat a cold, though I haven't found the evidence to be compelling." the studies clearly show it does exactly NOTHING for a cold. Makes for bright pee, though.
It's all about doing 'something' to take you mind off feeling icky
If you aren't deficient in a specif vitamin, then talking the vitamin does nothing. In fact, sometime taking vitamins can make up a deficiency. It depend on the specific vitamin.
Not quite.
Epileptic seizures are accompanied by abnormal synchronicity and hyperexcitability, which lead to have too much potassium flux and inward sodium/Calcium fluxes.
Interestingly, in the epileptic brain we* see that the management of extra-cellular potassium is deficient.
I am unaware of any evidence that " Too much synchronicity leads to seizures and epilepsy '
Royal we, I am not an expert in the field, just a hobbiest.
"His speech and music synthesis stuff is solid" was solid. Now it's decades old and he has done nothing. I have come to understand he wasn't some sort of genius, but just in the right place at the right time.
People are nervous about what they don't know, and yes, that applies to you as well. The difference being some people aren't afraid poke around until they understand it.
You mom was probly raised in a way where men are suppose to take care of that stuff. Which is sad that happens in society.
". How can we evolve to be greater than humans if humans are most important?" You don't see the logical fail their?
Just becasue you are the best at something, doesn't mean you can't improve. I think humans are special in that are brain have evolved in a way that makes us generally superior and expanding and surviving. Just to be clear: at no point do I think Magic was involved with human evolution.
"given life to the non living" that's a mighty big jump. I'll wait while you define life. On second thought, just write a book the finally answers that and I will gladly buy it and read it.
"Cybernetic implants are merely another next step in evolution." I had to stop reading what started to be an interesting post right there. Clearly you don't understand evolution.
I suspect you start going on about a different minds you consider superior. Its a shame so many people in AI have basic misunderstanding of of why humans can do so much compared to any other known animal. .
False. Prestige and money are far bigger drivers. Your statement assumes the people, design, architecture and security model are all the exact same for each system..
What nonsense? did Baron Pierre Charles Dupin describe how to implemented his idea on a computer? the technical details? No? The patent is on how to do it with a computer; which is a different thing.
There are many things wrong with the patent system, this is not one of them.
with a sign: You are being recorded via an Uplink camera. Illegal duping will resort in a $2200 Fine
See what happens.
If you are in a truly small town, have someone from the other side of the country send you something. n in a box from the "Uplink Camera Corp." Just have them put a phone book in it.
BNy everyone, you mean there customers, not the thousands of people who couldn't buy hard drives.
Business only cares about it's customers, cause the provide the bottom line. That is why when someone says they would be good in government becasue of their business experience, you should point and laugh.

666 isn't the number of the beast. Turns out the Bible was wrong...again.
I've been meaning to do that, but never got around to it. I think I will do it this winter.

Most vitamins just make expensive pee.

That's irrelevant. Both of those apply to what is in your memory.

Education and knowledge reduce violent crime and property crime.
A library the advantage of accuracy. Interesting fact: about 80% of you childhood memory's are wrong.
Kurzweil nonsense.
look up the guy who ran the study before giving any merit to this study based on an article, or even the conclusions of the study.
Well, a Bravo reality TV show! It must be true,.
"no capable dev tools how many years later?"
WTF are you talking about? Maybe you should educate yourself a bit, hmmm?
in fact it will become more personal. You'll just always carry it around with you and dock it to periphials when you can.

still doesn't change this:
. That's selfish, douchebaggy behaviour.
The fact that you would do it only means you are a selfish douchbag.
no one said it was theft, so don't bring up that strawman.

Yes, much more sense then backing it up offsite every week. Hell, it's automated, do in incremental every day.
sheesh.
