  1. Exaxctly. on How Should the Law Think About Robots? · · Score: -1

    Cmdr Data and C3P0 will never exist.

    Never.

    Wanting your fantasy does not fill it with possibility. Adding computational power to an abacus does not grant awareness or "being". It's like saying that because taking 1 aspirin cures headache, then taking 1000 will produce omniscience.

    We should think of robots like we think of Screwdrivers, Jackhammers and Pocket Calculators.

    Gosh. It's been first TWICE in a month. And Slashdot managed to mention it BOTH times!

    Seriously. Does anybody really believe that we are wandering around in the atmospheric analog to the time Pangaea was splitting?

    At least some academics have successfully publicised their findings and thereby secured funding for their continued project/employment.

    BTW:
    Correction: May 10, 2013
    "An earlier version of this article misstated the amount of carbon dioxide in the air as of Thursday's reading from monitors. It is .04 percent, not .0004 percent."

    It's great to see our senior legislators working on optimizing the consumption of Soma by the Betas.

    Of course.

    I used Cygwin the whole time I was at M$... And I used Interix/SFU/SUA or whatever they called it, after there was a whole Deb distro ported.

    http://debian-interix.net/

    Looks like the Deb stopped updating in 2009. I would have been using it until 2010. It worked, with a XMingX server - which I preferred over CygwinX.

  13. Re:Good on Ubuntu Developing Its Own Package Format, Installer · · Score: 5, Informative

    "Dunno if there's a way to specify that inside Xcode or not, but for our app we use a build script that includes some code like the following. The code uses Apple's install_name_tool utility to modify the application so that instead of pointing to /usr/lib/libsndfile.so, it points to a libsndfile.so path that is in the application's package instead.

    Note this is just a cut-down script excerpt to give you an idea; it will probably require some tweaking before it works for you (and of course you'll need to modify it to operate on other libraries besides libsndfile if that is what you want):"

    A famous literary hoax, of Borgesian dimensions.

    One might adduce as much, from the enigmatic title of the purported work, and the pseudonymous attribution of authorship.

    In fact, this was the product of several Oxford dons, in the generation before Tolkien - who expanded on the academic chicanery of spurious reference work by creating an entire cosmos, populated with libraries of such.

    Now, let us turn to the Voynich manuscript, and the Dictionary of the Khazars...

    I used to be broke and relatively careless. This was the early eighties.

    I was careless enough to eat these things. Not so careless that I went for the big macs or quarter pounders. I could buy three 39 cent regular burgers, and come out better fed than the single big mac, at that price.

    I last saw one of these violate my gullet in 2001. The money is better spent at the taco truck. :-)
