With the scenarios given, how exactly does SETI increase the risk? Does the AI obey old school vampire rules where it can't come to our planet unless we invite it? Are the aliens, who are capable of inducing a supernova in our star, not advanced enough to know we're here unless we answer (which of course would take potentially 1000s of years for the response to reach them anyway)?
Entities powerful enough to do the things described don't need our permission. If they want to destroy us, we probably wouldn't even know until it was too late.
Research grant money is so scarce, it's sickening to think these idiots wasted it on something so stupid.
So instead of piling on Trump and Pence because they've got 'R' next to their name
It's not because they have an 'R' next to their name, it's because they are the leaders of the fucking country. They wanted the job, they got the job, they are responsible for the fucking job. I will pile on Trump and Pence as long as there is 'President' next to their name.
Also, as to your rural/urban argument, you are assuming that crime should be linear with population. It is in fact non-linear with population density.
Here's a hint, almost nothing in the Universe is linear, so just assume it isn't and you'll pretty much always be right.
C. elegans is the only living being whose neural system has been analysed completely. It can be drawn as a circuit diagram or reproduced by computer software, so that the neural activity of the worm is simulated by a computer program.
They took the simulation of the worm's brain and trained it to balance a stick. They didn't build a neural network from the ground up with the sole intent of balancing a stick.
Trump in China, an excerpt: "Former President Barack Obama also did not take questions from reporters on his first trip to China as president next to Hu Jintao, the Chinese leader at the time." Not 'paraphrased', but actually quoted.
Nancy Sinatra... On this one you were kinda close. CNN did tweet that "Nancy Sinatra is not happy Trump will use her father's song", and linked to this article. What she originally said was to "remember the first line" of My Way, which is "And now, the end is near." After CNN wrote this article she deleted the original tweet, and wrote another linking to this same article saying "That's not true. I never said that. Why do you lie, CNN?" CNN then amended the article to include this. So half marks for that one.
QoS and load balancing, which is what you're talking about, is not the issue. Even favoring certain content which requires low latency is not the issue.
Say, for example, an ISP was slowing Skype to encourage people to buy their digital phone package. That would violate NN.
But then you still don't necessarily have causation, remember? So at the very least the first thing you need is a correlation, controlling for other factors or not.
Are you saying that it is reasonable to assume two things with no apparent correlation have a causal link given no other information? I doubt you are.
Obama presided over the longest period of job creation in US history, in spite of the fact that when he took office the economy was in the worst state it's been since the Great Depression.
Trump has had no real major policy goals completed, so I don't see how he could have had any real effect so far. FYI the tax cut is a long standing Republican policy goal, not Trump's, Trump said he wanted the rich to pay more taxes, remember?

You are relentless. Trying to avoid getting nerve gassed like the guy in the UK?
It doesn't have to be registered, but it does have to be stated.
Night of the Living Dead entered public domain the moment it was released because they never included the copyright notice on the title card.
Yeah, why trust security "experts" when some knob on /. who never provides a shed of evidence for any of the crap they spout can just make things up?
Hows that rural broadband coming?
Could you at least be bothered to read the user name of the poster?

That was far more interesting then anything else I've read on /. today.
Look at Trump who is doubling and tripling down on the disaster that was the Obama budget.
CONGRESS PASSES BUDGETS NOT THE PRESIDENT.

Congress passes budgets, not the President. Read the Constitution.
Yeah? And did they get that way by doing nothing?
Do you remember Sunday School?
No, luckily my parents did not take me to be brainwashed into an ancient cult as a child.
There could be inland areas below sea level.
Great. I'm glad you're so eager to start relocating people away from the coasts.

First paragraph yo.

Lol I wonder who it could be?
I didn't know this until just now, but as Bryansix mentions above, you can cite specific versions of a page's history to avoid this problem.
Sanctuary cities, literally quoting Chicago Mayor Rahm Emmanuel calling Chicago a "sanctuary city".

0.5/4 = F. See me after class.

Do you understand the difference?
But then you still don't necessarily have causation, remember? So at the very least the first thing you need is a correlation, controlling for other factors or not.
Are you saying that it is reasonable to assume two things with no apparent correlation have a causal link given no other information? I doubt you are.
Fatal accidents have gone down because cars are safer, I'm not sure that accidents themselves have gone down...?
Correlation may not imply causation. But a complete lack of correlation refutes causation.
Lol, from angel'o'sphere?
If they said the sky was blue I'd have to go outside and check.
writing down passwords is not a good idea
Your fingerprint is a password you "write" pieces of on everything you touch. And once compromised, you can't change it.
