driverless cars will always be unsafe. they can be hacked by chinese hackers to seek out pedestrians instead of avoiding them! or maybe people will do it for the lulz... criminals.
As an ethics professor, I can tell you that the emergent ethics field is rife with landmines - the full scope of impact of a new technology is often hazy, but the ethical response to it is often ingrained before the circumstances fully become clear. Examples abound. The most apparent example is the evaporation of privacy first by ubiquitous data aggregators such as google, then by voluntary actions such as facebook. But other examples exist too. Organ creation from stem cells, evaluation of in-the-womb DNA, and now infinite replication via 3d printers. I wish I could tell you there was a right or wrong response, but if I could, then it wouldn't be an ethical quandry!
I wonder what the iss would have looked like if Steve jobs designed it? It would have been much simpler for sure, while at the same time better accomplishing its primary purpose (unless you believe it's primary purpose was to create jobs in key congressional districts).
Where would NASA be today if they had a Steve jobs on board?
whatever, it's facts. google added turn by turn navigation to its android but refused to extend it to apple. you think apple was voluntarily withholidng turn by turn from its customers? duh, no. if apple wanted to offer users the best it had to roll its own maps. so stfu.
I rtfa and the summary sucks ass. The quote that the summary attributes to Obama - "'I eat essentially the same thing for breakfast each morning: a bowl of cold cereal and a banana..." was actually said by the author. It's the author that eats bananas and dresses in a small number of suits. summary sucks.
whatevs it would be horrible and i don't suggest it at all but if that happened to your wife/sister/daughter would it still be "funny smelling"? would you still want to nail the guy who is hiding in an embassy because he is "persecuted"?
You mean like snuff films? Yes,those should be illegal too. And animal cruelty films. Anything designed to appeal to the deviant sexual needs of perverts and sickos. Don't worry, your Law and Order and Toal Recall are safe. Btw it's no surprise that you're advocating for Pedro's since your username is "666".
why do you think you can "know for sure" an actual vote count? do you "know for sure" exactly how many people are in the US? of course not. but through statistical samples you can calculate a number that you have good faith in. fact: spend a billion dollars to hand-count every vote in the US, and here a big wooshing sound as thousand of tea-pottiers drop their "FRAUDZ!" and rail against wasteful gov't spending.
as someone who worked the polls in US in 2004 and 2006, I dont' think this is necessary. nor do I think teh voter id laws or whatever crap are needed. an educated person knows that you can use statistics to determine when results are fine and when they are questionable.
here's the key fact - it doesn't matter what the vote count is, it matters who has more than 50%. so if you do a count and estimate that a candidate got 55% of the vote, you can use math to determine what are the odds that the actual vote count is second, you can compare results across counties and states to find any statistical outliers, and investigate those further if they are deemed necessary.
why? your analogy fails. a bag of coke you can snort, but a picture of a bag of coke you can't snort. what is the "real world" equivalent of a CP picture? a CP act I guess, which is illegal as well. CP pics you can fap to if you're a sicko, and that's all that matters.
I say eff them, throw them in a hole. or cut off the nuts. there is no "reforming" a pedo. this isn't about criminalizing "bits" it's about criminalizing possession. which has a rich legitimate legal history. possess drugs? go to jail, do not pass go. posess stolen merchandise? (as opposed to the act of stealing). jail. posess an unlisenced gun, or one used in a crime? jail, unless the tea tards get their way about the second amendment. this is the kind of society we live in, and the kind of society i want, despite the ranting of some freetard in norway. maybe norway wants to legalize pedos so they'll all leave US and move there.
the question is where they go from here. they have a solid userbase, and astronomical opportunities in mobile if they can get their collective head out of the collective dark area. at some point there will be an inflection point. i'd buy now probably.
I don't know, I think it's a hardware issue. the hp's trackpad is small and feels rough like sandpaper. to be honest it's not good hardware. what bums me out is that my work expects me to do awesome work, but they can't spend a couple dimes to get me a good machine. it's like if a blacksmithing company gave its blacksmiths crappy tools.

bahahaha "I'm concerned about my privacy, so I use Chrome." don't you know it's like a palantir? you get google's eye of sauron right in your house.
What's the bet he believes in invisible friends?

Like any popular platform, Android has malware.
except for iOS...
. Its a choice between unions and no jobs.
don't you mean a choice between unions and jobs? Maybe I misunderstood.

my whole life is routinized. it sucks.

good riddance i cant stand those wikileaks people. show some courage and man up to your "leaks." dont hide in an embassy like a sissy.
Nice try with the short sale but it's illegal to try to manipulate stock prices for your benefit I notified the sec.

I'll take that bet! a sucker born every minute.Ka Ching for me.

Common sense says they hit a really agressive price target by talking small margins and counting on some ad revenue. So get off your high horse.
