The roads they are talking about are not in metropolitan centers. If plants before "man" can transverse from Europe and Asia to the the Americas then I doubt a simple two lane "road" is going to stop nature.
Seriously online companies need to start charging Germany for all the nanny sitting they require for their citizens, Basically cancel all outstanding lawsuits and give them 10 millions dollars. They just might break even.
I don't even like Facebook. But it's still like.... oh a company is making money... lets sue. Almost as bad as my home state of California.
I think a new law is needed making it legal for the government to hack devices/computers for the purposes of disabling them.
Furthermore internet enabled devices might necessitate an FCC mandated kill switch. I can see it using both a push and pull mechanism. Push where the devices are directly connected to the internet and pull from behind a firewall where the devices must periodically check an FCC site to see if it should disable itself in as graceful as way possible such as maybe disabling network connections and requiring manual intervention. This must apply to all computers running Windows.
Bots are a menace to the internet and people must accept a certain amount of responsibility for the maintenance of their devices.
How big is the containment vessel? How much energy are we talking about in that space? What would happen if you fired a magnetic bullet at it? What would happen in a catastrophic failure?
Thanks. Wanted to make sure I understood... "malicious hypervisor"....
I had no idea anyone was trying to create a hypervisor that didn't have transparent access to it's guests. It's impressive that they tried. But there are lots of new experimental features in each generation of CPU's that won't necessarily follow in the next design. I doubt they though it would be secure on the first try. We don't have that security now so there is no loss. And even if it does happen in the future it will be 20 years before I even consider trusting it. And even then I would need expert testimony of someone that had reverse engineered the chip under a microscope to ensure there are no back doors.
Nuclear energy is cheap. We need more progressive programs. We should have been doubling the number of reactors every 15 years. All the first gen reactors should have been torn down and rebuilt already. Have an excellent track record for 15 years? Well then if you rebuild your current plant with a newer design then you can build and be in charge of a second one...
The irony is that if there weren't all the anti nuclear environmental activists then that plant would have been upgraded a long time ago. There are ways to build reactors now that if you drop a bomb on them they still won't melt down.
Give me free electricity and compensation for every screw up and I'd gladly live next to a reactor.
We need to stop IP greed. Instead we should shift to merit model. We need a licensing and pricing body in the US like they have in UK. In the UK the government sets prices for IP and there is no restrictions on who can license. There is no right to refuse service. You can't charge one person one price and another a second price.
For YouTube there should be something like a tribunal/committee where all cards and analysis are laid on the table and then they decide the price according to public benefit (aka the justification of IP laws... promoting the arts and sciences). Such a committee doesn't need black and white like courts often do and can more fairly price arbitrary grey use that can fall between fair use and commercial use.
It still has an onboard DAC since it still has speakers... so not saving space there. But they can use cheap DAC's and capacitors since all onboard sound is crap.
I like USB-C but if they are going to do this then they should have two ports. One at the top of the phone AND one at the bottom.
Since USB-C provides power, it is not as bad as people seem to want to make it. The dongles shouldn't be stiff USB keys but rather flexible foot long extension cords.
For headphones with a true USB-C connection this means expensive headphones can choose to use $20 DAC solutions if they want to. It will also enable cheaper headphones to compensate for cheap parts through a built in equalizer.
Neural network can produce logic or lossy yet meaningful metrics and then you can yet combine multiple levels and have precognitive assumptions and or forceful cognitive assumptions. Result: deterministic complexity vs statefull and relevant guesses.
Static logic is best left to assembly code and extrapolated guesses to trained neural matrices. Repeat after me... left, right.. left, right... left, right...
It's the best of all technologies. One could then control the total radiation amount and focus or diffuse it as per needs. This is the obvious technology to use for interplanetary links. When it is implemented it will cause minor issues for astronomers and as such they will have to send future telescopes further and further to the edges of our solar system. A focused x-ray laser would actually be very safe.
I don't endorse this sort of thing but all your IT people told you it was going to happen.
They told you the the days of living with buggy security and security through obscurity are over and that you needed to replace your equipment/system/infrastructure (which would have cost a lot of money) and you didn't do it.
I guarantee you at least one person quit or was fired.
I didn't vote for him but I have to wonder... what if he does a good job? What if he was actually able to do better than previous presidents?
I think the man is very vain. He is 70 years old. But a righteous legacy would be something he might sell his soul for.
He does know business and money. But it's real estate. Which means construction and turnover. Other rich don't necessarily like him because he doesn't care about keeping them rich. He is anti PAC. He has committed that his own cabinet won't be able to turn around and take insider jobs at companies. He is politically and financially not a friend to the rich.
I compare him to Nixon whom was also both very smart and naive about certain things. While Reagan wanted to outspend Russia in the cold war. Nixon wanted to steer China toward a liberal Fascism by marrying them to money and markets. (Kind of similar to how old kingdoms would arrange marriage [hostages] and guests so that there were personal ties of interest to both.) But China isn't spending western money. It's more like they are trying to bankrupt western nations.
Back on topic: Trump seems to support a more protectionist economy with an eye at least toward balancing trade. So it makes sense for him to be anti loop hole H1B. EVERYONE knows it's about cheaper tech workers to keep down tech salaries. I can only wish he would audit American companies and well known brands and show how they cheated the system and for how much. But he will use that instead as bargaining power; maybe shame a couple known companies in the beginning.
I think shamming companies on public TV will be a major theme for him. He does understand the PR game and how that would affect their stock prices in the short run. I expect an across the board minimum tax for businesses at least in the low double digits with phase ins and tax breaks for those that move/build facilities for manufacturing here. So there will definitely be a boom in construction and real estate which is generally good for the middle class.
Seems to me they might mitigate some issues by coping google and creating a parent company. Then create regional "facebook" like social sites that to a limited extent interoperate and share a lot of their code base. The various sister sites wouldn't have the same moral policies.
Also Apple was already thinking about building a massive manufacturing plant in the USA using 99% robots.
And Korea will obviously still play ball with the US and take over manufacturing of iPhones.
If the United States decided to it could ramp up and reinvent manufacturing within a decade. It will mostly be robotic. Only trouble is environmental laws.
I really need to replace my old MSI u100. I use it for light web browsing, remote terminals, and configuring equipment in the field. Sadly everyone seems to be abandoning the still usable 32bit CPU's
The old Thinkpad x200 thru x230 really look like a good deals. They even have tablet versions. A slightly increased screen and keyboard size will be welcome. Great keyboards for terminal use. I can use the expressport to install firewire for debugging other machines. The newer versions have a couple USB 3 ports onboard which will be great for transferring files between drives in the field.
Automated equipment is a fixed and predictable cost. It does require more technical people that can operate and fix them in the field. It also means less resources and planning for safety are needed for human personal with fewer people hurt in the field. Less training is needed so increased predictable production can be seen shortly after expenditure for automated machinery.
Overall this means mining operations can invest more predictably and scale linearly. So mines can be larger and with almost as many workers but in technical roles.
It's a field where I feel safe in predicting that the automation will produce more jobs. Unlike automated garbage trucks and freight hauling.
I consider myself to be on the Autism Spectrum scale. When I tell stories I want to be detailed; but I have learned that people don't want the full story and prefer summaries. Summaries so short that I more or less have to reinvent the scenario in order to get my point or question out and paid attention to. Since it's not the complete truth; it's a lie. But I want to tell the complete truth but people don't want to hear all the details and angles. It's a profound discrepancy in human communication that I have adapted to; the lie that communicates the essential but not exact truth. Is it a lie when people want/expect you to actually do it?
Lying isn't black and white. You have to interpret how much and what information a person is looking for. You are then lying only when you know what information a person is looking for and if they would care about the inaccuracy of the statement.
That is what this sounds like to me. It kind of like a physical blockade to a room where people go to give donations. Only difference is that it's one individual verses many.
Three weeks in a white collar jail seems like an appropriate punishment to me.
As for what they did to the girl and her family: A children's hospital guilty of abuse... As for the Doctors involved.. if they didn't push their diagnosis then it's not on them but rather social services. The doctors would just be fallible idiots and need this misdiagnosis on their records for the rest of their life. But often enough there are laws that force Doctors to report, when they even in the slightest they suspect abuse. In that case it's social services that was abusive. There should always be at least 5 doctors involved from different hospitals in a case like this before you remove a child from a parents custody and control.
I don't care what the social service liberals says. You have to prove abuse. And hard as it maybe to believe it can be more traumatic and abusive to remove a child from so called abuse. In such cases you supervise and collect hard evidence. Where are the punishments to the system when the system gets it wrong?
Sounds like something that could be exploited for a denial of service attack.
Most piracy is using torrents and encrypted. Sounds more like Cisco is engaged in marketing Puffery with something that will likely later come to be abused by the government or hackers by forcing backbone providers to buy higher tier Cisco routers.
Watermarking in itself is good for studding distribution patterns but little else.
They have become one of the cable channels. Since their foreign content is only leased tempoarily it seems to me they will inevitably drop their streaming service/subscription model and go directly to a la cart show subscriptions. Maybe new episodes cost a dollar to watch. Old series 25 cents for a couple hours.
Then that will evolve with Netflix breaking off into two or more companies. One a delivery ecosystem; others the new cable production channels.
Interestingly I think Apple is the biggest threat to them with an alternative content system already up and running. Question is will they start/invest in their own production companies or simply buy out HBO or some of the other channels with original content.
I think the Big Three are all dead within 10 years along with cable.
Both judges and the executive branch are violating the constitution if not common law. Justify it in whatever doublespeak you wish. If he wasn't on U.S. soil then he has no obligation to U.S. law. At best if he signed something then maybe an international tribunal before being handed over.
Where are the elected officials defending the constitution as they have pledged under oath?
A democratic president using the CIA to attack speech and actions against his political party. You might not like it but our political leaders and political issues affect other nations around the world. They may not get to vote but I see no reason they shouldn't be able to sway voters. Especially with something like truth and exposing hypocrisy. Our CIA has been swaying foreign elections since it's creation.
Our political leaders are all for violating our privacy and constitutional rights yet they are the ones with the skeletons in the closet that cry foul the loudest.
There is nothing to show it's "state sponsored". It simply doesn't have to be since it's not that expensive. They are private contractors. And private contractors at this level could be funded by any individual with political interests.
What I find interesting is none of the exposed information is claimed to be falsified.

And whomever put the plant online and or designed the computer system needs to be shot for treason.
