Microsoft is in madness. It must be very graduated, very pro. computerallogists following the trend and culture and going against the market with yet another NO, BANNED, LIMITATION strategy like religions do. The bad case is Nintendo, Nintendo DS/DSi is the best portable console you can find despite its software base being very limited. Could have become the first cell videophone, for instance. Those games are the best you can find, even superior to same game PC versions! But the console is leaving the market and you cannot find new consoles. Then comes the emulator to the rescue. Without the emulator that code, graphical and musical base is lost, even when many games are turned (nearly) impossible to play with mouse and controller because of stylus-screen/control designs. And music does falter in the emulator despite the DS/DSi being a superb chip! If you have not tried those games, you are missing the real playable, immersive games. So what MS is doing is not protecting a market in any way whatsoever but limiting the overall code base, AS IF software was like books and could take care if itself alone! Given the delicate and dependent nature of software a better rule is make it as widespread and runnable as possible. In market terms I am _sure_ by intuition that the more runnable software you allow will net you bigger income even at nominally ridiculous prices, than the strategy of going very limited (appropriable) and asking for a high price! MS in game terms is non existent to me, but all other consoles are known to me and have paid for them games because there ARE emulators. Which is why I use PCs: they run emulators, I can get any emulator and use it without limitations, so I just keep buying PC computers but MS consoles... what did you say was the name of the trinket? Windows?
OK, I will narrate my anecdote here again. I was very much into Doom II or III, which I won without saving file nor deaths. Then one night I saw a guy coming at me and making gestures... I did not think it, I thought assault, jumped, run against him, made a break and straight into a hotel lobby to shout we were being assaulted. No one replied nor helped. When I saw my companion was not coming in, I peeked outside and saw the guys running away. I thought the guy was kidnapped (maybe he was...), but some instants later he came in and asked me: didnt you see the gun? What gun? That guy did not expect my reaction, much less the run-toward-him tactic. I could have lost a PDA and some new stuff I had just purchased, and the guy his dinosauric weight, I mean, laptop, but I was so on my toes and reflexes from playing Doom it just did not happen. If I had managed to steer my companion to the other side of the street as I wanted while walking I would have picked up the taxi cab plates they escaped in, besides. So now I just keep saying: videogames are what we do NOT want to live, that is why they are so entertaining. You do learn from videogames, but they simply do not provide the impulse (pulsion) to turn them into real life. We can safely say those who do get the impulse will get it even from literature and we can call them psychotic, even if you can apply in real life principles learnt in games, even in games such as Chess. I think those studies pulled out must have realized that no matter what methodology you follow, the generalized link is not there, and examples will always be the sporadic psychopath who just happened to have enough mental acumen to play videogames: totally uncorrelated.
Really? They are? Maybe because all these people forgot technology is something NEW, yet treat Universities as if it had the practice and answers since Medieval Times? Good if this is realized. No University seems to have had any commercial success in systems, and the only system produced academically with real life success is UNIX. All very famous mediatic systems have been private initiatives, not academic outcomes. Simply put, University cannot cope with the fauna in Systems (the systems, not the practicats), if it wants to train (and keep) eternal truths and best practices! Those principles have not yet been very well discerned neither in academia nor in the private sector. See how far is a course on theoretical parsing from an actual quick hack based on experience, or the use of a generator like JavaCC. -Have you written a language yourself? -Nope, but I got straight 10 in parsing... Does not seem like a very good prospect to ask to QUICKLY, develop an in-house language to parse and query these logs such that... or to complete these n API optional functions along the lines of... for instance. 3:-D3 I passed from reading the manual of my first language to implementing animation then my first maze generation algo. We were taught bubble sort in the lab, middle school, but I went into insert-sort without even thinking first time I implement a linked list. No one I know seem to have followed a career in systems, but this story is not precisely what you get from people who do follow a formal career... and cannot admit when they could NOT make it run, but you were done a few months ago and waiting.
...is to know if they are using common wifi, IP, channels, or they can collect even if you are outside, away from a hotspot, with wifi disconnected, without sharing, remote session, etc. enabled, in sum, when you are _not_ connected. Such condition is detectable, but still looks like Windows goes into data collecting and not precisely to send it later at the first chance. If the OS does not want to let us see, we cannot see it, period.
Nope, it will be a joke if they cannot deliver arbitrary goods Mid Manhattan. At what time is it OK to display my heliport mat in the park field? I am sure that park particularly is perfect and easy for normal drone delivery... But if it fails as much as the LOCKER it will not be worth the while either! So yes, it is still a joke, like in: DO YOU truly THINK WE WILL GET that SERVICE WORKING for us? YOU MUST BE kidding!
You are supposed to go protect with your life the manufacturers so they can increase supply accordingly, otherwise this talk is just nonsense and an admission of defeat. Wal-Mart does not exist in this city, but a prize war would deprive amazon of its merchandise: loss from both sides. Dont they have economic advisors? http://a.co/3rd1ma6
? But consider the rule: One case = thousand cases. If you hear of thousands of cases you would assume a different attitude than if you hear of an extraordinary event, **news**. And if you are reaching millions of peoples... it is like waiting for letters and signatures to accumulate before presenting and issue to a government representative! I think the same logic prevails and while news displays ONE CASE, it is in fact an EXEMPLARY CASE: it is repeated by the thousands... There were 101000 outstanding stray and missing people cases a few years ago in a police printout, how many you got in media? What do YOU do if you realize that... ?
This is how consumer oriented robots are winning the jobs in America: https://youtu.be/PTQqz60bVgI Enjoy the sight, that landscape is already barren. (If only I could add some music to it... but computers do not seem to be oriented to handling music at all...).
They will be scared of SD cards, nintendos, USB sticks, external drives as well? That is a data embargo or promotion of the Cloud. Would be crazy to have to write down all your data in DVDs... !! Is it not enough to WATCH the damned thing IS WORKING to dismiss the idea of hiding explosives? I do not think these men are very aware of how many ways there are to make explosives on-the-fly (pun!) nor how destructive they can be, mass-to-force-to-harm, etc.
This is one of the games that is most suspicious to undergo SABOTAGE hidden as DEVELOPMENT. The orginal versions were simply PERFECT! I could run them in my kind-of-average spec d machine on Windows 95 and there was absolutely no bugs, errors, defects, glitches, idiosyncrasies, it all run smoothing and as-expected. Only thing it lacked was a voice interface to order groups! But after that machine was lost, I could not find the game again. Then the version in Gamestop did not seem to run well in then day laptops, now it is missing... etc. It is because this game is really such mindless fun and ability based that it must be triggering the powers that be in luddism, antigameism, etc. I would expect the older version to run in this W10 laptops at the same quality to be certain there was no such subtle fun-reducing sabotage.
I had exactly the same idea years ago, without taking that much into design. A portable wall? Sounds like against the wall... To me it indicates schizophrenics are ripe and prone to amass on the slightest synchronized signal, though it is only natural that we find ways to handle big Human herds, a few have passed through places I ve been in and it is not just a party but ready to go wild. Would you stop at the vehicle and act funny? I do not think so...
NONE OF YOU IS UNDERSTANDING IT. Robot means Droid means INDIAN, from INDIA. India sends to the USA particularly squarey, droid, andro-, bullish heads and faces, rather than indochimps or similar wide ethnological types. So the forecast in TRUTH is that US Workers Face A Higher Risk Of Being Replaced By INDIANS. See how it makes sense? Robots here are NOT very welcomed. I did witness two of the most recent robotic dispensers being underserved and finally removed; automatic tellers and cashiers and menus disabled in the night, robotic trashcans being abused and not common place, (Africans still insist in placing their hand inside the hermetic robotic door, trying for hours to penetrate it, when there is no trash accumulated stuck in the door), newspaper dispensers unused and untended... and that is about it. Not many other robots around but trash trucks, which did not precisely reduced employment but on the contrary. And I am talking very few cases: only one chain with automatic cashier tables, only one McDonalds with screen menus, one neighborhood with robotic trash cans, few automatic doors, etc. Only exception is all faucets with sensor, which has the payload of keeping Africans dirty and half washed and without hot water as they expect and cherish naturally. We would expect the USA to be robot filled a la XXI Century The Jetsons, but in fact there is not much interest but rather like sluffiness... and THIS kind of complaints, about replacement of workers. Translate all similar articles from robots to INDIANS and you will get the real sense. I suspect that now there are more people who do understand robot as Indian than people UNDERSTANDING what it means to start filling our lives with ROBOTS!
Expose!! We do NOT want to: reduce Human impact on the planet! That phrase is very telling, the right mind frame is to adapt the planet to Human needs. Reduce Human impact on the planet? To give more impact to what? Whom? (!) Say good bye! They must be very crowded in there! We want our impact to be sustainable, for instance, and permanent, and attuned to Human values... etc. I am very optimistic, but even then, since we invented fire we have been adapting to smoke and probably to more polluted environments. We claim economics, but even then I think we have some kind of imperative to leave no resources available without use, on principle. If at all we want there to be a HUGE Human impact so that when we say good bye and something else come by, it can say: Geez! There were some critters in here!
Who is convincing whom? The tablet company with a big idea for a very specific and characteristic niche (feels like sour-sweet to think of specifying such trinket), or some mental health and (?)-institution looking for solutions for specific and general problems in society and penal theory? It MAY act as an incentive for some people to send themselves to jail only to have access to a tablet from time to time! You are providing a value where you are supposed to grant only punishment and limbo, not Dante!
Javascript is lovable! You have to do raw C++ first to feel the effect of having the DOM at hand and the way you bundle code in javascript. It is funny.
(*Sigh*) 213 countries? We did not finish introducing Horse in whole areas of the world but we gave Computing for Free to just about anyone. That is a huge fault in the market! Distorting. I do not think looking for natural advantages was so valuable as to distort the market at the expense of innovation and... development. We already had Mathematics to that effect, any talent could have surfaced as mathematician rather than wrap us in just-about-anyone-can-program. Which would have meant real quality and much higher wages and less online clutter, etc. But anyway, our New Theory of the World is to give utter freedom to about anyone then just fend off and see what happens next! Surely those guys are using best methods to crib their survey data and give us discounted ubiased quantities and interpretations, right?
