There would have to be some tricking involved. At least it would have to lie about whether or not it is a piece of software. It would have to slow its answers and make mistakes sometimes. It would have to appear to be much less capable of number crunching and other things that computers do better than humans. I would assume the most useful artificial intelligence wouldn't appear to be human at all, but would be the best it could be in all aspects.

There probably isn't much cause and effect between degrees and one-in-a-billion success as an entrepreneur. I imagine Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg and others would do about the same either way. The degree is for finding your footing when life informs you you're one of the other 999,999,999.
I personally would not use the new job as a "bargaining chip", in that I'd bring it to the old boss and try to get them to match or beat the deal. IMO that has the potential to create bad blood. Instead, without ever mentioning any other opportunity I would just ask to open up negotiations for a raise. Focus on what your value to the company is and has been. You're training a couple of junior developers, so why not ask for a manager position with those two your first direct reports? No doubt such a position has additional responsibilities commensurate with the raise you're seeking. It will also reflect better on your resume when you do eventually seek out another position.
If you and they cannot agree on an acceptable solution, then you should definitely not feel bad about jumping ship. It may very well be that your actual value to the new company is simply more than it is to the old. Everyone wants to be valuable, and maybe this new company can better utilize your skills and experience. Their offer appears to indicate at least they think so.
I've been holding off on creating most of my best music because the incentive just wasn't good enough. Now I finally feel my monopoly will be protected long enough to make it worth it.
The same people that won't allow a reactor anywhere near their backyard will never allow a launch with radioactive materials onboard. It's a political non-starter, unless they can come up with some really creative spin that avoids using the words "nuclear", "radiation", "reactor", etc.
Maybe it will make you feel better, maybe not, but even with the bad economy, today's market for software engineers is like INFINITELY better than it was in 1929.
In this case, any "market failure" is very much the fault of government interference. The core problem is that merchants are not allowed to pass this fee on to the customers explicitly, charging an extra 2% for VISA purchases over what they would for cash. If they were allowed to do this, another company could undercut and would get business.
Depends. Some teams have less than stellar placekickers. If you can't reliably make a field goal from the 30 yard line, and you have 4th and 2 at your opponent's 35, maybe you go for it mid-game. Any punt made from that position can only potentially help you out in field position by 34+ yards, and if you try you run the risk of the ball going through the end-zone netting you all of 15. Add to that a missed field goal turns the ball over at the spot of the kick, not the line of scrimmage, so you'd be set back some 17-18 yards on the play in addition to turning it over. There's this dead zone somewhere from the 35 to the 45 where you see a lot of 4th down attempts because the numbers don't justify any other action. I believe a strategic computer would make the same decision.
Why do you need to be convinced? Just don't volunteer, and don't invest in the company sending the expedition. Someone else will go, and you can read about it on the internet.

It's not that they can't learn, or can't be taught, it's that you can't teach them. Specifically you, mopower70, is who Bloomberg is talking about.

Perhaps consult with the DeBeers company regarding strategies to mitigate your problem.

Ethernet sockets are too high. HDMI is low. It's not about horizontal space for the ports, it's about making the laptop thinner.
It's a shame. There is always something that gets compromised.
Take that, Space Coyote!

Sorry, but I'm going with the brand name "Ansible".
No, but especially not in New Zealand.

Well then what are enemy countries for?
Turns out he is de-evolving.
What's the point of a scale, when there's no gravity?

I'm not seeing the connection. How can a Goo Goo Dolls song in any way identify me?

The person who abuses the power is simply inevitable. The actual problem is the concentration of power itself.

New technology aside, I've always found rubber boots to be excellent for generating what I like to call "zapping power".
