  1. PHP Over Python, Why? on Ashley Madison Source Code Shows Evidence They Created Bots To Message Men · · Score: 1

    Of the 70K+ AM Fembots created, Python was not used. In my AI classes, the teachers used Python for examples. Could the use of PHP over Python be an example of using an older object oriented type language over a newer OO language is more useful for enterprise level endeavors?

    And where could one get a copy of AM's software?

    70K Fembots?! How can one study that aspect of AM's efforts?

    I know, IRTFA; all I can say is, "self medication is flawed."

    ISIL considers the dildo a false prophet, powerful, but false.

  5. What Kind of DA Submittal is This? on The Coming Terrorist Threat From Autonomous Vehicles · · Score: 1

    This FUD submittal pales compared to the Corporations Without Rules folks that cheerfully brought us the Great Rescission/Depression of 2008. Voting with your wallet? How's that working for you, especially if a family member or friend is crippled or dead from a faulty product? And a comment that is just as stupid today as it was on the day it was first mouthed, "Corporations are People that speak by using money." Bad guys using Autonomous Vehicles is at best, a mild diversion.

    And while this thread is on the topic of bad guys. Why is that ISIL leaders don't hang their LGBT flag in the port of Tartus?

    Maybe one day JOVE will consider Home Depot, and Ikea? After that, I believe they will need more servers.

    India had superior rocket technology right until 120 years ago

    Americans have been using that "superior rocket technology" on the 4th of July; for a long time.

    Poor A/C, your use of a Question Mark is misplaced, a symbolic gesture? Bribing your English teacher does not give you more knowledge.

    India's solution to solving the starving masses, bribe the teacher; google it. By and large Indians are nice folks, I'm sure one day, as a culture, they'll offer some insight no one has considered. It still appears that the worst thing India ever did in its bubbling history was to say "good by" to Alexander's Army. And to this day, the curse of looking upon Alex's rear end has not gone away. India remains a culture that peaked over 3600 years ago. Heavy sigh.

    Oh poor A/C, what india thinks is 'not broke' is laughable. As for 'good business', well maybe india should show us all a thing or two and take off its 'training wheels?'

    Damn, that's what I was thinking. Given india's cultural bias of less cost is better, I sure hope they give their first lunar astronaut a space suit when she steps foot on the moon.

    It's relatively straight forward, put someone in the position to make a decision. Why not go out and hire someone who is not so bright, or so smart; but can still get the job done. And let them do it?

    Federal grant idea. You know, the 3D tech is all over the place, the data base of 3D objects is not. How about having some unemployed STEM minions go out and map objects at places like Home Depot, Lowes, and Ikea? Create a Cloud of models for tools, furniture, auto parts, and farm tools; in short, everything that is man made and turn it into a 3D print. Someones going to do it.
