  1. Re:Uh-huh on The Robot Revolution Will Be Worse For Men · · Score: 1

    shortsightedness is a game that machines have mastered. So when one has a winning solution based on short shortsightedness, the outcome is easily predictable.

  2. I'm wondering if m$ wants some cheese with that wine?

  3. I'm just curious, which IDE works with Raspberry Pi?

  4. Re: Still Cheating on DeepMind AI AlphaStar Wins 10-1 Against 'StarCarft II' Pros (newscientist.com) · · Score: 1

    I'm finding myself confused, I'm nodding my head in the affirmative to the comments of an A/C. I should really stop self medicating.

  5. Re:Still Cheating on DeepMind AI AlphaStar Wins 10-1 Against 'StarCarft II' Pros (newscientist.com) · · Score: 1

    Interesting use of problem solving AI stuff. But can the DeepMind AI be made to respond to this one simple issue, "Given my limited resources, which Medicare program should I buy? And, could a DeepMind AI handle and process my Medicare transactions seamlessly?" But the gaming skills could be used as a trainging coach are good.

  6. Re:Fly waste energy by flying? on Bangkok Fights Air Pollution With Water-Spraying Drones (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    This might be a valid case for using Fuel Cells for Public Transportation. It would also erode the bottom of any Inversion Layers.

  7. Looks like fun. I was thinking of how to do this with Metal, and Carbon Fiber. Another application would be Zero Gravity.

  8. Re:ArianeGroup? on Europe Plans To Drill the Moon For Oxygen and Water by 2025 (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    I think it is a great idea to drill for oxygen and stuff on the moon. What keeps me from talking more about the ESA on the moon is that from my view in my cave, one needs to have a presence on the moon in order to mine its resources. Maybe the ESA might want to do something simple like maybe put a LEM on the moon?

  9. I really hate myself for enjoying this A/C post. But what a great idea for a thesis a.i. project

  10. Re:So you're saying... on Did a Russian Robotics Company Fake This Tesla-Robot Crash? (wired.com) · · Score: 1

    well, you have to admit; this is one way to sell a robot.

  11. Re: Something like COVFEFE? on Procter and Gamble Unveils New Device That Aims To Remove Signs of Aging (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    it would be nicer if the cause was cured and not the symptoms

  12. Boy do I feel awkward. I have been accessing the NSA data bases to do light credit checks of folks that use debit cards. I just thought it was ok, what with cell tower owners selling location data. So I just figure that any data collected is accessible.

  13. So, after decades of work by our brightest minds and biggest egos, we can not build a thinking program? Maybe until then, some of the smaller problems could be reviewed? Like 3D Printing Medicine?

  14. Re:I don't live in NYC on Seattle City Council Members Visit New York To Warn About Amazon HQ2 (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Cassandra said it best, "beware of amazons bearing gifts"

  15. One Thing About Texas on Texas Has Enough Sun and Wind To Quit Coal, Rice Researchers Say (houstonchronicle.com) · · Score: 1

    Everything is bigger in it.

  16. Re:Nicole Foss on renewables on Texas Has Enough Sun and Wind To Quit Coal, Rice Researchers Say (houstonchronicle.com) · · Score: 1

    Nicole Foss may have a point; her thesis lacks support numbers. Personally, I stopped believing folks that talked convincingly without offering proof when I learned to do basic math.

  17. Re:This is new? on FTC Warns Netflix Users About Email Phishing Scam (deadline.com) · · Score: 1

    Possibly the FTC is tracking anyone that watched "Bird Box" and didn't want to commit suicide afterwards.

  18. Maybe Bill's idea is to remove the radio activity from radio active stuff? That would be worth an Ig-Nobel; and Bill wouldn't have to sue or get sue'd for it. I see his idea as a Feature, not a Bug.

  19. Re: Goodbye Sears on Sears, the 125-Year-Old Iconic Retailer, Has 24 Hours To Survive (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1, Funny

    Wow, I didn't know that Sears used Linux; else why would this article be posted here?

  20. Re:And at Monsanto - on Hybrid Rice Engineered With CRISPR Can Clone Its Seeds (sciencenews.org) · · Score: 4, Funny

    I was thinking, "Zombie rice, what could possibly go wrong?"

  21. Makes Sense, But Rent is Due On the 1st on High Score, Low Pay: Why the Gig Economy Loves Gamification (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    If one can avoid paying their bills, then they can pick and choose, else homeless is unavoidable

  22. Keys are programmable, and the lights can give feed back on expected statutes

  23. Ya, right. Somebody is reading a little to much Manga.

  24. Cheese with Your Wine on Is Quantum Computing Impossible? (ieee.org) · · Score: 1

    So it is not as easy as those ass hats in Personel implied. Get back to work.

    I guess ðY¦' has to live with his choices. Like choosing a non Midwestern city to do business in, for painfully obvious reasons
