Usually they receive resumes, look at the most experience in any field that any one person has, the lowest salary that someone was earning, then generate the perfect candidate profile. So if someone sprinkles in some porkies into their resume, that gets added to the perfect candidate profile. HR also start recruiting by trying to find project managers and architects first (10+ years experience), then the tech leads, team leaders, senior engineers, then finally engineers and interns. So they want a JAVA architect.
The reason there was a split with Ethereum and Ethereum Classic was because one had a vulnerability that allowed other people to hack into someone's PC and steal their wallet of coins. Implementing a fix for this problem caused a split in the community. Now they are trying to fix the solution to this problem by creating a new coin that can cross between these networks.
No, they went the opposite direction. They found everyone a job even if it was manually operating an elevator cab (the Epsilons). Only the really bright people got to make the decisions (Alphas), then others got to supervise others to implement those decisions (Betas, Gammas) and do other menial work (Deltas).
It's related to tech through science-fiction writing. Many authors based stories on the prospect of the world running out of space and alternative solutions being found (removing health and safety laws to increase death rates), allowing the population to eliminate each other to get birth permits. Star Wars even had an entire planet based on this problem (Coruscant).
Some countries like Bangladesh and Singapore have also run out of space. Bangladesh is begging other countries to take their surplus population. Hong Kong already has "coffin apartments". The next stage for them is to start building over the oceans or reclaiming land.
Governments don't "print more money". They borrow more money from the international bankers and add it to the national debt. Then taxes have to be raised to pay the interest on this debt. Plus the world economy has grown around the servicing of this debt through issued bonds, so even if the USA had the ability to pay off the national debt, it would nuke all those third world countries lending money to the USA.
Usually it's those casinos on the reservations that seem to have the reputation for having a slot machine that was faulty when it made a payout on those networked machines. But it happens in other places:
The UK was proposing that anyone flying should be able to deposit their carry on luggage ie laptops and smartphones for security checks while the passengers go through duty free and do a bit of shopping. then pick the items afterwards.
Remember that Google also performs a security check of every web address to make sure it is not a malware site. Be more concerned about how Firefox is embedding all sorts of prefetching services for Facebook, Amazon and other websites, even if you don't use them. A web browser shouldn't be sending a constant stream of data out to the internet while it's on a blank page.
They wanted a circuit that detected between two frequencies. The system was supposed to be digital, but the artificial evolution had made use of analogue computing using magnetic fields and harmonics.
We did Geology field trips at our school. It's funny how our parents favorite picnic spots happened to be the best examples of specific geological features; beaches, granite cliffs, sandstone hills. To capture everything from the individual grains of quartz in granite would required HD video. To capture the stalactites and stalagmites in a cave would really require 360 degree video. Nothing would really replace of walking along the coastline of beach cliffs, seeing and hearing the waves on one side, feeling the wind and smelling the sea salt in the air.
They have made similar VR videos to do things like walking down towards the bottom of a volcanic crater or exploring the surface of everything from the Moon to Pluto, but they don't duplicate the feeling of heat or cold. Others have covered the Space Shuttle and observatories. Seeing a full-size spacecraft in the same space as your living room is another experience.
Our history lessons used to consist of scratchy scribbled sketches of various buildings from each era. A Google 360 Atreetview picture of a medieval town is several magnitudes better. Anything interactive like 3D game or walkthrough is even better.
Insects just follow a set of rules that their genes have programmed with. Everything from communication to building nests. The fun experiments scientists did was to work with solitary bees/wasps when they were building nests. Simply changing the shape of the nest as the critter flew off to get more building materials would put them back into whatever state their programming instructed them to do. If a clay nest was basically an upside down pot, then closing off the bottom would make them start a new stalk and then build a new pot.
That's the skill in writing AI for computer games. You don't just want to have the game always at skill level infinity, you want to have the whole range from skill level 0 to infinity. Skill level 0 is simply making moves at random. Sometimes, it's up to looking ahead a dozen moves, other times, it's not constantly making aggressive moves.
Sounds like chemistry simulations. Just calculating the electron configuration around a molecule requires solving the energy states for every electron, and that can only be done iteratively. Every generation of chemistry engineers have come up with their own optimized algorithms of the time. Each would get a name like SOCHEMOL91, named after the paper/publication/year. Currently they are using VASP, which is the GPU version.
I do the same. I've got a whole stack of old 3.5" laptop HDD's as I upgraded my laptops through the years; everything from 6 Gb to 40/60/80/250GB. It was always cheaper just to buy a basic laptop, then buy a pair of spare HDD's rather than pay the markup for the more expensive model. Just keep everything sorted from Linux ISO downloads to PDF manuals and funny cat images.
I was thinking in terms of self-driving cars for mobile vision. Current AI and mobile vision both share the use of GPU's operating in GigaFlops/second. That would have been considered supercomputing a decade ago.
Mainly because AI was neglected by the supercomputing people. The meteorological, oceanography, aerodynamics, biogenomics. big data and supercomputing researchers all got access to supercomputing facilities, while the AI people usually just got a UNIX workstation or desktop PC. Suddenly with the availability of desktop supercomputing with GPU's and cloud computing the AI researchers have a whole new set of hardware to work with, especially with multi-layer neural network API's.
A Machine vision research project in the past would be lucky to get a processor board with a multi-core transputer chip, Intel i860, or some TMS34020 DSP's as well as a TMS340x0 chip (for VGA display). All of those would have to be programmed separately and even then only run at few hundred MHz. Machine visions involves doing basic image processing things like edge detection, optic flow analysis, which are simple per-pixel operations on video frames. Those would take seconds per frame in the past. Now with modern embedded GPU's with supercomputing performance, they can work in real-time and at high-definition resolutions while in a mobile environment.
The ability to "mine" bitcoins is controlled. Originally people were using old low-end desktop PC's, then moved to high-end gaming PC's. The difficulty was increased. More people switched to GPU's which were 100x faster. The "difficulty" to mine bitcoins was then adjusted again. They moved to motherboards with 19 PCI slots. The difficulty was increased again. Some developers came out with bitcoin mining ASIC's (currently selling for $1900). Some users have struck gold simply by mining bitcoin hashcodes at random and finding a blockchain.
It's a shame they couldn't apply this innovation to something like protein folding.

No different from startups and stock options.

Glue a heatshield to the Earth facing side, add some delta wings to each segment worth saving and glide it back to Earth.

I have an old smartphone with no SIM card or Wi-Fi connection. Battery life is about 10 days. With Wi-Fi or network SIM card, it's a day.

Smog on the South Coast. I hate being "gassed" every time I try and walk home. Seriously, it's like dental anaesthetic.
