It won't be until autonomous driving starts to drastically reduce the population that owns cars before you see significant decline in road use.
Autonomous vehicles that aren't owned by individual drivers (or rather, passengers) would increase road use. With the current situation, a driver drives from origin to destination and the car stays at the destination until the driver returns. With automation, the vehicle drives from origin to destination and then continues to the next trip origin. Unless, for every trip from point A to B, there's always somebody already at point B that wants to go to point C (as opposed to somebody at point C that wants to go to point D), the autonomous, no-passengers drive from B to C will be a net increase in road use.
What autonomous driving will really reduce is the need for parking.
Uhhhh... no.
You sound like a city slicker. The thought of sharing a vehicle with some nasty assed illegal bedbug wearing drunk is what keeps people from using cabs, if you think their 90k autonomous car is going to be shared you are whack.
MAYBE the car will be sent to a regional or local parking location, but at that point you are losing the cargo and staging capability of it, as well as the ability to decide to leave at a moment's notice.
What you are talking about is autonomous PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION which, only has use in dense urban environments where the costs aren't tremendously upside down.
Since we are talking about PUBLIC transportation, then it should be a bus or van-sized vehicle and use a regular route.
I'm not sure how to feel about this. On the one hand, yes, trojans are bad. But on the other hand, anything that negatively impacts advertisers can't be all that bad.
My first thought was "yeah, I wonder if i can get this in a non-malicious form to fuck advertisers while suppressing those ads visually"
Whatever happens with the internet next, it'll be much better off with click farm, click bait, advertisements all over and all that.
For you naysayers, look what happened to Slashdot when it got corporatized. Ok, Fark, Redit, Image Shack, Usenet, etc. etc.
So If I am trying to fix a an old computer I won't actually see a fix immediately because the fix might be on a snitz forums 2000 that will never ever be on a mobile phone.
... IF the user is searching with a smart phone. They don't do any of that weighing if the searcher isn't using a mobile device.
You can also click the little globe button to the right of "search tools" to get unpersonalized results.
They need to go the opposite way with this as well.
A little control panel that allows the user to select what stuff they want to see in ads, what stuff they want to see in searches ("I work in XYZ industry") or a table of sample sites of stuff I NEVER intend to be looking for.
They would get a better ad-profile (which I would block of course) but users would get better and faster searches in return.
"The Russian government is responsible for shooting down a passenger jet and murdering hundreds of people."
Not only the Russian government: "Iran Air Flight 655 was an Iran Air civilian passenger flight from Tehran to Dubai. On 3 July 1988, the aircraft operating this route was shot down by the United States Navy guided missile cruiser USS Vincennes.... All 290 on board, including 66 children and 16 crew, died."
Yup, and the US admitted they did it.
The soviets are still lying about their little incident.
Some artists have been helping people in areas being targeted by US drones to create large canvas images of some of the victims and lay them flat on the ground. That way as the drone flies over and targets the area the operator will see the face of a child who was previously murdered in a similar scenario. The idea came about because drone pilots describe their targets as "bug splats", and this is a way to hopefully connect them to their potential victims in the way soldiers deployed on the ground are forced to.
Maybe that and other efforts to make pilots aware of what they are doing and how it really isn't a game, that they are killing real people when they push those buttons, is having an effort. Of course they would never admit that, hence the excuse.
Yup, cuz we all know it's much preferable to see the results of what the dead guys would do to our malls, airports and schools up close in person in a few years if left alone.
Take your pacifist garbage somewhere else. You need to get used to the fact the religion of peace is coming to kill you, behead your sons, and rape your daughters. It's already happening to the soviets and various other European countries, it'll happen here. You are probably the same sort of drooler that complains about Pamela Geller exercising her free speech too aintja?
Anyway, the airfarce needs to pay more attention to the meta data of their resources and predict that a lump of guys taken on to run drones will peter out when they are up for retiring from the airfarce.
Next, they need to hire GAMERS who are used to strapping on a war face for 10 hours at a time every day. Hell, some of them would probably do that stuff for FREE. (Provided cheetos, mountain dew, and hot pockets are available in the break room.)
Just like the Army made a game to simulate being in the army, the airfarce needs a game that's all about being a drone pilot.
Then the first step is to increase the cost of water during a drought to be at least equal to what it would cost from a desalination plant.
No, the first step is to increase the cost of water so supply equals demand. Raising it to the cost of desalination would shut down every farm in California, put thousands of companies out of business, destroy millions of jobs, and devastate the California economy.
Lack of water is going to shut down "every farm in California" anyway. Your claims that the results justify a particular action are illogical. The results will exist in all cases.
This was raised before on Slashdot, and the response was that desalination would not come close to meeting the water demands of California. Do the math and come back to us - I'm curious but the devil's in the details.
Here is the thing though, desalination could at least alleviate the need for massive restrictions on what goes into municipal water supply pipes.
It isn't enough to allow for fewer restrictions on the agricultural side of course, however rejecting all fixes because they don't fix everything at once is stupid.
There are plenty of power technologies that could be deployed on the coast that could produce the energy for desalination, you know, the same ones every anonymous whanker on Slashdot trashes because they can't fit demands of the power grid. Know what doesn't need to fit the power grid demand? Desalinating and pumping water into a storage tank.
Take a bunch of operatives that are near retirement, non-essential and need to be re-deployed, etc.
Make them all move home, announce this. Now those countries are sitting on the REAL operatives who they were about to discover... and deciding they don't need to look as hard anymore.
A whole bunch of ops just got a lot deeper.
Nevermind what cracking the chinese or soviets were actually able to accomplish.
Likewise, this could be to throw off a new leak into thinking they are still safe... blame movements on Snowden while you close in on the new leak.
OK neanderthal, TRY and understand this. An EMP targeted attack does not have to be state-sponsored, and all of your retaliation plans go out the fucking window when that happens, since you're looking for nothing but a state-sponsored attack to be able to execute your plans against said state in retaliation.
An EMP device does not require controlled material. That is the scary part, and why the attack vector is so much larger. This problem is not black-and-white as you make it out to be, nor is the retaliation plan. Creating a nuclear wasteland should not be the automatic go-to answer here in response to an EMP attack. That level of retaliation isn't even equal, and would likely guarantee the end of our civilization instead of leaving the planet and environment intact to rebuild our electronics.
But hey, fuck that, caveman tactics FTW. We "won", that's all that matters.
How many non states do you know that can get a sophisticated, tested, and probably fifth generation or later nuclear weapon in low earth orbit at just the right height over the US while every one of their electronic devices and electronic communications are compromised or intercepted... without being noticed the entire time it's doing it?
Space aliens are the only thing I can think of... Just send a pinterest photo of your cave-painting diagram of how this will happen. We'll wait.
Even if it doesn't make things worse, the trouble with retaliation, 'second strike', MAD, 'deterrence', etc. is that it relies on attribution of warheads being relatively easy.
If the adversary knows that you'll know it was him if he tries anything, your big huge second strike infrastructure is pretty scary. If you can obfuscate attribution(or, worse, successfully pin it on some innocent party) the theory of deterrence becomes effectively useless.
EMPs are probably a moderately favorable case, since you need to do a reasonably visible launch to high altitude to get the best effect; but if somebody just puts a nuke in a cargo container that was supposed to contain xboxes and it levels one of the world's larger container ports, who exactly are you going to retaliate against?
Answer: all of them. Specifically, ALL of the nuclear-capable threat-states.
The ones that didn't do it, will really really want to share information about who did.
Subs can second strike anybody anywhere, and wait for a time for it to be an accurately determined enemy as they are basically impossible to kill if they are hiding.
Being able to kill off some or all other states after your state is already dead creates allies, not enemies.
The biggest problems with supersonic flight weren't emissions or the sonic boom. It was the financial viability of it, enough people simply aren't willing to pay the extra to make this viable (at least historically).
I am willing to guess, being able to go supersonic over the continental US on a regular basis would be a big deal to the military as well. Better practice and training, as well as assisting in keeping enemies alerted. "Gee, Haji, did you hear that big boom? Think the US is back operating in the area?"
increasing spending on strategic projects from 5 percent to 40 percent
Rarely does this sort of change involve spending more money in absolute terms. Most likely people doing stuff like support were retasked, outsourced, or simply cut.
Most of the stuff in the summary sounds like a good move, but I've seen companies that were fairly short-sighted in making these kinds of moves. At work we've been focusing on "strategic projects" for a long time now in belt-tightening mode and it seems like the biggest result is that every department under the sun has sprouted its own mini IT department that does all the stuff that IT stopped doing, usually less efficiently than it would be done if centralized.
When IT cuts a service that really was necessary, the result usually involves a net loss of money.
They spent 8 times more and actually started paying attention.
Stuff worked better.
Imagine that.
All this tells me is to stop wasting money giving it to the cancer society as they are prone to wasting it.
The way to do this is to separate the skills of the two components (human, robot) into different time-frames where speed doesn't matter where speed can't be achieved.
For example, the robot could be limited to detecting if an item is in a bin or not, and if it's approximately the right size and shape. It knows where the bins are, and if they have one item or not. Each bay would have a big bin of all the items, and a few out front with one of those items each.
Robots pick for orders, fast, and without many errors.
Humans take single items from the large bin, place them in the fast-pick bins and track the item (with a bar code) and the bin (with a bar code).
In the case where the flow changes and an item is ordered a lot, the number of bins can be changed. Also, robot / human meet-ups will be called for by the robots / computer system if it knows there aren't enough items or a lot are ordered. The human meets the robot there and fills bins as the robot picks.
Now the robot system can do what it does best, get the order out the door fast and accurately, without tiring and without needing a break. The human can do what it does best, getting the complex item ready for a simple robot to handle, and it's work is not very sensitive to breaks, holidays, trainees, boredom, etc.
What I'd be interested to see is if, and how aggressively, they take action against image collections that are not of any use for their desired purposes.
They obviously can't be too capricious and unpredictable, or they'll spook users; but you can't offer 'unlimited' storage without making some provision for 'that guy who hacks together a FUSE filesystem that uses images uploaded to Google Photos as a storage medium' or the 'Cool, this will make my next time-lapse video project way easier' cases.(and, of course, if you are feeling particularly uncreative,/dev/random just needs a dash of formatting information to be as many bitmaps as you could possibly desire.)
Are they just going to go with the ISP-style 'I said unlimited; but I actually meant X photos or Y GB of traffic per month; apparently I'm allowed to get away with that, so STFU', are they going to have peons manually examine accounts whose size gets out of hand and decide what to do?
Their track record on removing useful and loved services for little or no reason should spook users well enough without playing games with the content.
The trials that were conducted were a treatment, not a cure. A cure insinuates the organism is no longer susceptible to the disease, which is not the case with these treatments. A better article, that represents our research and treatments, and quotes us better, is the MNN article below.
Fungus, if it's stopped by bacteria is due to living space and biological niche being filled.
Just like someone on lots of antibiotics is at higher risk of thrush infections (fungus) and can be helped by consuming "probiotic" foods, the inoculation will depend on the bacteria PERSISTING on the bat and staying there.
For whatever reason, bacteria that used to fulfill the role for bats is gone and the niche was exploited by the fungus.
Finding something more effective than the usual anti-fungal drugs is a breakthrough, but they might still have to make this bacteria persistent or re-spray bat housing to keep the bats healthy.
For a couple of hours after being washed with a detergent? No, it doesn't.
I see you haven't had experience with one of the new fangled "low water use front load "HE"" washers yet.
YES, indeed, they can create a very strong mildew odor in your clothes that in some cases is permanent, in as little as a few hours. And do it ONCE and now EVERY load smells like that until you do a proper bleach load.
Top washers don't have this problem, the HE front load washers DO.
will use this as an excuse to spend even less money on bridges. They hate us and refuse to provide jobs via infrastructure projects. They would rather have us all die on broken bridges than give one job to a single person. Here in the Republican-ruled shithole of Seattle, our waterfront has been destroyed by something called the Alaskan Viaduct, or as the locals call it, the Republican Monster. It is horrible. It is falling down. Even the Republicans admit that it is dangerous and is going to fall. But, because it uglifies the waterfront, the Republicans want to keep it. They hate us and want to make our lives so ugly. So ugly. The Republicans in Seattle are full of hate.
Typical liberal. Completely against education and knowledge.
If you want to go live in a cave with your hairy, sinky-snatch woman. Go ahead. Retarding society and ruining it for the rest of us.
Imagine if you will, we knew what bridges were going to fail. Or, even if we knew how to make better ones that lasted longer because we know how they fail. Or, maybe this technology becomes cheap, you know, like every other motherfucking thing we do now, and can be simply bolted on a bunch of places on a bridge, with each sensor scanned with a bar code (for it's location and bridge number) in an afternoon by two guys in a pickup truck and $ 700 worth of sensors.
Or, we could just do nothing, sitting around confused by too much dirty hippy pot, unable to think of anything but the faint smell of dirty snatch in the cave.
If you use 127.0.0.1 your web browser will try to connect to localhost.
If you run a web server, this will result in a 404 and weird content on your pages.
If you don't run a web server, this will result in a delay while the web browser unsuccessfully attempts to connect.
Instead, you should use 0.0.0.0 which is a null route that fails immediately.
No.
No local web server results in rejection by the OS, which is very fast.
Some web SITES on the other hand, use things like load-time include content that mucks up pages. But in general using the localhost IP is very fast.
They'll probably just pay someone else to do it for them with the oil money as usual.
And what they buy will be an empty bomb casing full of pinball machine parts.
Seriously though, I don't see the level of cooperation required for this project persisting long enough to pull it off. But, the best of luck to them for trying.
You are right. Of course when the man does change, his genetic superiority (in the eyes of his mate) as a "rebel" is negated and so goes with it passion, attraction, commitment, and eventually the relationship.
Couples therapists have spoken on this in that when men actually do change, generally to be more communicative of their feelings, women don't see them as being masculine anymore and lose interest.
As usual the only winning strategy is to be yourself and avoid close relationships with anyone who doesn't respect that.
I was going to say, getting pregnant by the rebel and having the sucker raise the children doesn't always happen in that order.
As has been mentioned before in this thread, use the Let's Encrypt protocol to get a publicly valid cert for free, set up your own internal CA or just use self signed certs... not hard.

I am going to respond with a resounding FUCK YOU when you offer to let some third party shit "reconfigure and do it automatically" the security on my web services.

The ideas for changes they are describing go a long way towards making them more like eastern europe or soviet roads.
I suggest you go over to youtube and search for "russian car crash" and view a couple hours of video in the results.
Then come back and explain how fewer, and less defined rules will make things safer.
Do you get paid by the word to white-wash? Holy hell.

If you want to go live in a cave with your hairy, sinky-snatch woman. Go ahead. Retarding society and ruining it for the rest of us.
Imagine if you will, we knew what bridges were going to fail. Or, even if we knew how to make better ones that lasted longer because we know how they fail. Or, maybe this technology becomes cheap, you know, like every other motherfucking thing we do now, and can be simply bolted on a bunch of places on a bridge, with each sensor scanned with a bar code (for it's location and bridge number) in an afternoon by two guys in a pickup truck and $ 700 worth of sensors.
Or, we could just do nothing, sitting around confused by too much dirty hippy pot, unable to think of anything but the faint smell of dirty snatch in the cave.
If you use 127.0.0.1 your web browser will try to connect to localhost. If you run a web server, this will result in a 404 and weird content on your pages. If you don't run a web server, this will result in a delay while the web browser unsuccessfully attempts to connect.
Instead, you should use 0.0.0.0 which is a null route that fails immediately.
No.
No local web server results in rejection by the OS, which is very fast.
Some web SITES on the other hand, use things like load-time include content that mucks up pages. But in general using the localhost IP is very fast.
They'll probably just pay someone else to do it for them with the oil money as usual.
And what they buy will be an empty bomb casing full of pinball machine parts.
Seriously though, I don't see the level of cooperation required for this project persisting long enough to pull it off. But, the best of luck to them for trying.
You are right. Of course when the man does change, his genetic superiority (in the eyes of his mate) as a "rebel" is negated and so goes with it passion, attraction, commitment, and eventually the relationship.
Couples therapists have spoken on this in that when men actually do change, generally to be more communicative of their feelings, women don't see them as being masculine anymore and lose interest.
As usual the only winning strategy is to be yourself and avoid close relationships with anyone who doesn't respect that.
I was going to say, getting pregnant by the rebel and having the sucker raise the children doesn't always happen in that order.
There's always another rebel out there.
As has been mentioned before in this thread, use the Let's Encrypt protocol to get a publicly valid cert for free, set up your own internal CA or just use self signed certs... not hard.
I am beginning to suspect this whole article's purpose for existing is to allow commenters to side-load a bunch of whitewashing about "letsencrypt"
I am going to respond with a resounding FUCK YOU when you offer to let some third party shit "reconfigure and do it automatically" the security on my web services.
What you're website is serving has no relationship to what the browser gets if they do a man-in-the-middle attack and change the content.
...and?
I am supposed to care what some dumbass in china has happen to his pirated windows machine because his own government is trying to fuck him? He should remove his government if that's the case. Either way, not my problem.
