It's about more than "simple minded people occasionally getting confused." Before we started "helping" the third world with food and resources there were millions of starving impoverished people suffering under brutal social structures. Now there are billions of starving impoverished people suffering under brutal structures effective enough to bubble over into the civilized world. It may sound harsh, but letting them starve is a mercy as the growth rates mean there will be billions if not trillions more suffering over multiple generations while dragging the rest of the world with them vs 1 generation which starves once and is done. There is nothing good about helping people in a way which leads to suffering of a greater number of people, it's just evil.
I can't build or design a car. Should I not be allowed to drive a car then?
Correct.
I bet you don't have the ability to build your own fully fledged computer if I handed you a bag full of electronic components, a blank PCB and etching chemicals, therefore, by your own logic, you should not be allowed to utilize a computer.
I could build one from raw materials along with the machines to process them, nice projection though.
App development is probably the only kind of development more lowly than web development. It doesn't take skill, just knowing whatever backwards system (they all are) you're building an app on. Good developers have an options of what to work on, and none of them choose a platform with extreme limitations, lack of control over content, massive privacy concerns, or a generally shit development environment. Most certainly none would choose Java or Window Universal.
Is allowing morons to use technology. It's the source of virtually every issue on Earth, and the solution is simple: if someone can't demonstrate the knowledge required to design and build a thing they shouldn't be allowed to utilize that thing. This would apply everywhere from computing through industrialize agriculture and within a generation we'd be heading far far away from Idiocracy and toward a brighter future with individuals possessing more Humanity (intellect) than is possible today.
I am sure the copyright holders would consider it an option.
I am sure the world would be a better place if enforcement of regulations were to be cut off when in favor of anyone or any group making as much as they do.
That is how most schools used to be a hundred years ago. Of course, it's easy to clamor for that kind of treatment now that you've graduated, you're only inflicting it on others after all.
Went from the military to industry myself, skipped the student loan scam.
From a fitness standpoint it's best to alternate jogging and muscle training each day so your respective muscles can recover properly. Also, you don't typically want to eat before working out - some people might, but if you have everyone eat then jog for an hour chances are someone will actually shit themselves, and most people will cramp up. The best process is immediately after waking everyone goes out to stretch and do whatever the workout for the day is, then stretch again, then shit/shower/shave and get food. It's a tried-and-true process.
It's not the time, it's the time awake. In college-aged people especially (late nights, partying, etc) this is a factor. The military has PT every morning to make sure people are awake before work, 30-60 minutes (depending on the exercises done) each morning is enough to wake people up, another 30-60 minutes to shower and eat and you're at 1-2 hours prep time to be fully alert. The issue isn't the time (if you started at 11AM each morning you'd just have 1PM be the new "best time to start" within a month or two.)
Those countries that pull the plug don't care about IP addressing. All they care about is staying under the radar so they can continue commuting crimes against humanity.
Not true, technically. The first world cuts internet access for anyone pirating things too much.
Every other known force has a decay separate from dispersion alone (e.g. redshifted light, the strong force not working outside of a nucleus, etc) - yet somehow gravity - the force we know the least about by a wide margin - is the outlier? Yeah right, dark matter is a hoax and anyone who says otherwise is a fool, looking for funding, or a fool looking for funding.
The line "opiate of the masses" was critical to reading that post properly. Circuses didn't tell people how to think in highly suggestive manners with any degree of success, they were pure entertainment. Religion is no longer the "opiate of the masses" because it doesn't have the same reach it once did in western cultures, instead there are movies, TV shows, etc - which get people to relate fictitious characters to their real-world associations and in turn react often with prepackaged one-offs typically interpreted by the recipient in a radically different manner than their intentions to further that influence. TL;DR: a circus amuses, modern entertainment influences as religion once did.
Wasn't Yuri just the next step up from animal testing? Seems him, Armstrong, etc deserve the same respect one would give a person testing pharmaceuticals in a phase III trial.
If you give control to someone, don't complain when they use it.
They were never given control. They are a corporation, a corporation is not a thing save for the government making a thing, all rights a corporation has are granted to it by the government, the government doesn't have the right to quell free speech, ergo it should be illegal for a corporation to do so to their clients. Freedom of association doesn't extend to clients/users.
I refuse to believe the devs don't pirate, they are just pretending to be good boys to legitimize their program.
Wow, that's like that idiotic "I have nothing to hide" bit COMBINED WITH marketing professionals attempting to mine your data to influence your decisions.
Why is it that people who don't watch TV are so damned proud of it that they need to announce it every time TV is mentioned? Please share, what else makes you special?
Because people who watch TV tend to have really annoying/detrimental habits - like comparing people they know in real life to characters in shows. Those kind of people are a plague on society, explicitly because they are easily-controlled soulless abominations directed by the liberal extremists.
Yeah right. Entertainment is the new opiate of the masses and now that Trump is in office the liberal extremists in Hollywood want to do what little they can to piss people off.
The entire premise of ANNs is you don't need to know how it works to do things with it. Cataloging the actual operations taking place isn't something people tend to do because it would be different for every type of ANN (not image recognition vs driving, but frequency modulated vs weighted vs whatever else - there are tens of thousands of different types and the weighted versions are among the simplest.)

I'm sorry that you feel so insecure about your own intellect.
Certainly not in contrast to someone who would use an argument such as that.

This link is great in relation to how Linus deals with a huge distributed codebase. It's actually what convinced me GIT was superior to SVN.
Pull your heads out of your asses
I don't think they teach pulling out in Navy boot camp.
There is no military draft right now.
That means that 100% of the personnel in the Navy are in the Navy because they CHOSE to be in the navy.
How do you know they don't just have a life-altering addiction to gay sex?
I am sure the copyright holders would consider it an option.

What's the point of outsourcing an open source project? They were already providing free labor.
Shut the fuck up
Liberalism, everyone.

It's basically extortion.
Just like most of what they do.

So a computer beat him up... case closed.
He agreed to it in the EULA.
