No offense, but aren't you an old dude (and I say that as a 40-year-old who absolutely considers himself an "old dude" in the context of video games)?
Nobody who is older than 22.4 years old can be competitive in FPSes. And damn, have you seen the new Super Smash Brothers? So many things going on, how do the kids tell what is happening??
I will say that I think the domain you're searching makes a difference. If it's something programming or technical there's a VERY high likelihood that I will need to add the !g...
Ditto with using DuckDuckGo for a year or two now. The search results are good enough. If my search doesn't show good results I just add a "!g" and that solves it.
Plus it's got a whole bunch of other good controls. "!w" for search wikipedia, !gm for google maps, !gn for google news, !n for DDG news, etc.
That's silly. If you want to discuss some concept like consciously creative software, come up with a term that describes whatever you're trying to do. If you want to discuss the nature and origins of intelligence, go hang out in the philosophy department.
Everyone else who works in AI, and of course the general public who still understands that Deep Blue is AI and the computer opponent in Starcraft is AI, will keep using the same terms that have been used for more than half a century.
And that's a BS answer. The term "artificial intelligence" has never been understood, either popularly or by computer scientists, as referring solely to a complete human-style conscious general purposes intelligence. A program does not have to be able to play chess, learn how to fly an airplane, and converse with natural language to be AI.
Machine learning is a _component_ of AI.
A program that plays chess has LONG been considered AI. By your standards such a program is merely some combination of machine learning, planning, search, etc. Guess what, that's AI.
This redefinition of the term AI is very puzzling.
My complaint was mostly about #3--I feel that religious characters in s.f. works frequently come across as, well, just kind of weird, and I wasn't a fan of one of the main characters. I do like that each book kind of has a rotating cast!
Also, I totally cannot imagine Chrisjen as anybody EXCEPT the actress who plays her on tv now. Casting for the TV show has been superb. (Particularly love the OPA leader on Ceres and Chrisjen, Holden is good, Amos is good, Alex is GREAT, Miller is great, etc.) The only one I'm not super wild about is Naomi.
Clearly we're moving ever close to the world of Snow Crash:
When it gets down to it — talking trade balances here — once we've brain-drained all our technology into other countries, once things have evened out, they're making cars in Bolivia and microwave ovens in Tadzhikistan and selling them here — once our edge in natural resources has been made irrelevant by giant Hong Kong ships and dirigibles that can ship North Dakota all the way to New Zealand for a nickel — once the Invisible Hand has taken away all those historical inequities and smeared them out into a broad global layer of what a Pakistani brickmaker would consider to be prosperity — y'know what? There's only four things we do better than anyone else: music movies microcode (software) high-speed pizza delivery
Paleo may be nonsense, but if you avoid the crazies (and there are certainly no shortage of them) and just think of it as the "in general, foods that are less processed are better for you" diet, you're probably off to a good start.
Is "pkg install phpmyadmin" not sufficient to add all the necessary AMP components, phpMyAdmin, etc?/var/www =/usr/local/www (/www... and this is a lot more logical than putting them under/var!!!!)
A few different things for controlling service startup (/etc/rc.conf) but that should be about it?
Don't doubt that there are finely tuned Linux distros specifically for spinning up your use cases (and I'm not experienced with any of them), but FreeBSD is pretty easy to get up and running today too!
You absolutely don't need to incorporate (or form an LLC--the more common option for individuals. An LLC is NOT a corporation), but they do make accounting and taxes cleaner.
As a sole proprietorship you just add a tax form Schedule C and you can deduct and expense what you need. You have the option of deducting many expenses (like a computer) using "Section 179" deductions that let you take the whole amount in the year of purchase, as opposed to depreciating.
True "organic" (meaning without pesticides or other similar chemicals) honey is a very rare beast. There's basically nowhere on the continental US that can truly be declared organic. Bees can travel such distances (and so can herbicides and pesticides) that an entirely organic foraging area for honeybees is very hard to find. Even if, for example, you have multiple acres of prime foraging area, all if takes is a neighbor spraying glyphosphate, or neonic seeds to have spread, etc.
Since bees will not cross wide expanses of water, islands can be an isolated foraging area. Quite of a bit of honey designated organic comes from Hawaii, for instance.
Yeah yeah, take whatever group you don't like, and strawman the living fuck out of them. It kind of leaves out my family, who were serious liberals, yet were very religious.
And then there was me, the most conservative one of the bunch, who doesn't have any part of that bullshit fairy tale or any fairy tale for that matter.
Funny. That fits my family exactly. I remember being shocked when I got to college and there was an association of religious with conservative. All the conservatives I knew were atheists and all the leftists I knew were United Church of Christ, etc., deeply religious.
I actually am part of the 6s battery recall. Apparently the recall is in effect for 3 years from the date of purchase and I'm _mostly_ able to make it through the day now, so I'm waiting a little bit longer to take mine in for the recall.
My wife has a 7--I'm not at all fond of the "button" or haptic touch pad whatever the hell it is. I guess I won't have to worry about that with the next generation of iPhone doing away with the thing entirely!

Do you post on DBR?

I definitely hope that as well!

Came here to say just that!
I started with the TV show--very good.
I'm now reading the books. I'm currently on book #5, and each book I'm finding myself a bit less interested, but still good enough to keep going.

And our workstations cost 1/20th of what these cost.
1/20 of $4,999. So your workstations cost $250? That's nice.
The Virtual Actors Guild. Your characters need to bw fully registered and licensed and of corse you need to have your union dues fully paid.
The Virtual Actors Guild? ... The VAG? I’ve been trying to figure out if, given the context of the article, that was a deliberate joke or not!

The only books we have are ones that were banned by other schools. The kids have to learn about Tek War sooner or later....
Isn't that backwards?
Hah, I literally just bought a copy of this today after reading about Pournelle’s death! Looking forward to it.
I actually am part of the 6s battery recall. Apparently the recall is in effect for 3 years from the date of purchase and I'm _mostly_ able to make it through the day now, so I'm waiting a little bit longer to take mine in for the recall.
I guess sometimes she feels like something smaller than what she's used to. Ayo....
