If the bank leaves its vault open, can you take the money?
If they stick a sign outside saying "free money" and have an anonymous form at the door to fill out saying "add a tally for yourself if you took some free money" then yes, you fucking can. The only difference in this case is there was no money involved.
Sadly society doesn't define middle men, politicians, business majors, other controlling labor, etc as "useless" - but the people who aren't being actively controlled.
Given the track record of people not defined as "useless" over the centuries the solution will no doubt be to cull the useless 99% of Humanity.
Can anyone knowledgable in the field give a yes/no on the sanity of their research?
If people knowledgeable in their field thought their approach was likely to succeed, they would already have plenty of funding.
Nobody knowledgeable in the field has funding to give, hence they give to people like Tyson, Kaku and Hawking because they are celebrities. Knowledge in the field being defined as at least being on the right track to a grand unified theory.
The games are two and a half months away. Preparations for hosting them take years. I can't see the point in this guy's comments, other than as an attempt to garner some cheap publicity.
Canceling them would be the sane thing to do if they can't be moved elsewhere or postponed to move elsewhere. Having a completely arbitrary worldwide event in a practical plague area that causes horrible birth defects in the infected is fucking stupid. No sport is worth the risk of allowing people from your nation to risk others in your nation like that.
when the whole point of Uber is to be flexible for drivers.
The whole point of Uber is pretty much the same as most social startups - to build a following. The objective being a market base for self-driving taxis.
There is no good excuse for writing the same code over and over and over again. As a developer, my job is to work smart, not repetitively. This is a shortfall on the developer's side, period.
Nope. As a code monkey your job is apparently to work within a single platform.
So you've never made a cross-platform (both server and client, desktop web and mobile) app before? Ever? Hard to consider you as even remotely experienced if you've never written anything requiring at least a dozen languages.
Opinion dismissed as incompetent.
writing the same thing over and over in various nearly identical ways save for language and platform nuances
You are clearly doing something wrong. You think after two decades of coding you would know better.
If you haven't had to rewrite practically everything you've made in at least a dozen different languages over the years you are still a newb, let the adults speak.
Another latest shiny fad, something for resume fodder and Agile Development hipsters.
Node.js is an amazingly powerful tool, far more so than c/c++, perl, python, php, java, etc. It lets you take the exact same code and use it across platforms and in browsers with very little if any modification. As someone that has been developing for over two decades the shittiest thing about programming is writing the same thing over and over in various nearly identical ways save for language and platform nuances. Node.js eliminates all that bullshit.
Where is some kind of useful application for this? Anything? I'm listening.
I know I'm responding to a troll with this but: this is as far as I'm aware the first instance we've had even a hint of a way to make a channel which conducts whole atoms tunneling around in a circle while traveling along it (pretty much like a wire conducts electrons for electricity.) Will it be of use? Most likely there will at least be a niche device or two to come out of it, most interesting things at least have that. The really interesting thing will be to see what happens when you make it into a long tube and pump water through it, or into a coil shape and see what happens when you pump water through it. It might have microfluidic uses, it might have uses stemming from so much tunneling of things larger than electrons (which alone gave us the transistor for the computer you're using now.) It might be nothing other than an oddity people muse at. That's science, we poke things until they do things then figure out how to apply those things to do other things.
I think history would indicate quite the opposite. The rise of urban dwelling was largely because having centralized centers for commerce and administration were to key agricultural success.
Not even remotely. Cities provide advantages for people engaging in trade, war, etc. They make everything wrong in the world easier, rural people wouldn't even be using industrial equipment if not to make enough extra to provide for the parasites in cities that happen to have them entrapped into trade and financial deals they would not otherwise be. You can dress a parasite however you please but city-dwellers are still 100% parasites.
Cities are by far the biggest drain on the world, climate included. There is not one single self-sufficient city on the planet, they are all wasteful cancerous parasites.
We will keep making more sophisticated encryption. You will not beable to keep pace with our progress. We do not want you in our devices, fuck your laws.
Crapfully yours,
The internet
You are an idiot. Everything has backdoors and if you believe otherwise it's because they want you to. You're ability to type in spite of sub-Human levels of sentience makes me sick.
It's the internet and nobody here really gives half a shit about anyone else's opinions. When people say they want your opinion on information what they mean they're a data miner.

It saddens my heart to see the billions spent on these sporting events
We need to keep the jocks amused until we crack genetic engineering - they're a gold mine of genomic data.

You would be surprised how high people are tested in IQ tests that have completely bollocks attitudes to certain things.
Or you're just unwilling to accept someone is in fact smarter than you and your ideals are stupid.

Yeah, for about the past decade.

Forget scale, this probably falls off over time. One traumatic event, drug use or epiphany could likely screw the results of an individual for life.
A flaw is a flaw and a shitty solution to have to implement is a shitty solution to have to implement. Get off Steve Jobs' necrotic dick.
That's what they get for using a Mac (and GIT.)

Well, that's the rub, isn't it? We don't want them going to the Russians or the Chinese... Oy! The things we do for love...
Nuke em` and they won't be going anywhere.
