If you acknowledge that space and time are linked by the fact that it takes time to traverse space, it is therefore only logical to conclude that manipulations in space also cause manipulations in time. This is what the gravity waves are and why LIGO detects them the way it does. The shape of space changes which causes a disruption in the timing of laser pulses going down tubes.
Your example of the Sun and Earth is complicated. Don't view the Sun as a beam simply transmitting gravity to Earth. Gravity waves are radiating outwards in 3D space in all directions at all times. The plane on which the Earth resides looks like an outward moving disc. As each pulse of gravity reaches Earth, it pulls Earth slightly towards the Sun and into the path of other gravity waves that would have been emitted right after the initial one. This process happens over and over and over and what you get is the elliptical orbit that we see today. The angles and speed of transit change as the rate at which the Earth passes through these gravity waves changes and you get an asymmetric version of the underlying phenomena.
Moron or not, you are not LEGALLY allowed to use MS Word/Office/Windows with out a license. LEGALLY. Legal issues rarely have to do with your intelligence.
I wonder how much all the military action in NK is going to cost us. Probably far in excess of $200 million. I have no idea why an English speaking orangutan has this level of authority.
Raise more? In Texas we had management tags to shoot all the extra ones tearing up the land that didn't get shot during hunting season. Hundreds of them. Every year. They breed like rabbits on oil field land where hunting is restricted.
Or maybe high risk military targets can take their meetings to a place beyond civilization where a military force with full air support isn't required for talking to each other. If society is to this point, they can have their own danger island away from the people they supposedly protect.
This is one of the first things I thought of when I was exploring the free tier... How many minutes per month? Broken into how small of chunks? How much actual useful CPU time do I get for free in a "month" and how I can (ab)use that? I can use another instance to coordinate everything for $12/month.
I would say the biggest issue is that there isn't an agreed upon definition of what constitutes "AI". To get an idea of this, technically from the field, OCR is "AI". Yet commonly I think you'd find people expecting some sort of robotic terminator-like lifeform that is capable of all things human, including emotions (if limited). When you have that sort of range... I mean I could make a case that genetically engineered oranges are "AI". They are computing sweeter flavor (and radioactive cancer).
From my view, an "AI" is a machine learning platform that not only processes data but also acts on the results of what it processes. Machine learning has to be a part of it but there is also a distinction that you are automating some human decision tree versus displaying a confidence factor.
An example from Natural Speech Recognition: The current AI/ML platforms that lead the way in this area perform much like what we've learned about the way the human brain structures speech. They take a very large corpus of input, analyze it for context and associations, and when asked to provide a context-based (not context-free!) query, the platform returns a fairly reliable result. This ranges from almost as good to better than human ability in some specific domain areas like legal transcription, article classification, and language translation. The result varies but is typically what you would expect a human to respond with if asked a question and this is the underlying technology driving stuff like Alexa.
The way it works is by starting with a blank slate and building associative connections between words, groups of words, frequency of words, frequency of groups, etc. You can think of this as the same process you went through when learning English as a child. You heard noises, associated those noises with actions in the world based on when and where you were, and after building up enough associations you started speaking. Every category of thought from "animals" to "zeta functions" is learned this way. Contrary to opinions I keep reading about this being "rules based", I've seen published research that shows this can all be done without any pre-defined rulesets or categories. The source corpus builds the ruleset (a graph of Markov chains) including intermediate categories that aren't used in output classification.
Is this AI?
I would also say that I think Musk's view is a bit dire but there are warnings to be noted. As I said, if we assume that an "AI" is an actor in the world, then it will be a risk wherever it is. The level of risk and impact of that risk are all situational. If Alexa gives you a bad answer, no biggie. If an "AI" tells your doctor that you have cancer and a multi-thousands of dollar treatment is required but is actually wrong, that could have consequences in multiple dimensions. How these systems are layered and audited for correct behavior is ultimately what will determine how ruinous or beneficial they are. I mean, we do a pretty poor job of keeping humans from setting everything on fire and then pissing everywhere so I don't know if we need to be too worried. But that's also what gets us in trouble... c'est la vie:)
There's also the fact that pi can change values based on the underlying metric with which you use to measure space. If you use the taxi cab metric (shortest straight lines), pi becomes 4. This, of course, applies to tau as well.
Yes and no. HTML has a lot of non-XMLisms that require special handling in the engine. I think the common strategy is to use a set of recommendations for transforming HTML errors into valid trees which are equivalent to well-formed XML. In memory there is no difference between the two because they are both trees. Technically JSON, YAML, S-expressions, and various other hierarchical serialization formats are also equivalent. In fact, I'm curious why Google hasn't replaced HTML with JSON at this point.
The DOM engine is what is responsible for parsing HTML/CSS, converting it into a tree, and then rendering the tree to the client area in the browser. It's essentially the core of the browser and presents a programmatic API along with JavaScript. It may also be used to render UI elements. For example, all of Chrome's plugins use HTML/CSS to create the menus you see in the options and menu screens.
But at least Fiat money is attached to a government or governing body and hence an economy.
When you look at historical societies that have traded using different forms of non-fiat currencies it's hard to argue that you need a central enforcement body. All that is needed for currency trade is the trust that whatever tokens are exchanged can later be exchanged for other goods. Nation states ensure this with military but trading peoples have relied on other methods for at least 10,000 years.
When you consider that it's all fake, you can bundle anything up like this.
An ETF is an Exchange Traded Fund. It is a financial instrument that is traded on a traditional stock market but holds a set of assets that are not traded on a stock market. The purpose is to bridge the gap between the two markets and allow more investment opportunities.
In this case, a BitCoin futures contracts are used as the underlying instrument. Futures contracts are yet another financial instrument that are traded in their own market (the futures market!) along with oil, corn, coffee, orange juice, and my favorite: pork bellies. Futures contracts generally use large contracts and require a lot of capital to trade so having an ETF composed of them allows smaller investors the ability to trade futures at a distance.
Ultimately the way this will all work is this: BitCoin moves on the market day-to-day. The BitCoin futures market will move in response to this, but it will also move in response to people's future expectations of the price in BitCoin (hence the term 'futures'). The ETF will hold a certain number of futures contracts which will be divided into shares which will then be traded on the NYSE or NASDAQ. The price of these shares will reflect the prices of BitCoin, the BitCoin futures contracts, and the management overhead of the ETF. The contracts are all dated and the ETF will have a set trading scheduling for rotating contracts as they expire.
Of course there is a lot of minutiae to consider but this is gist. ETFs are very standard and have been traded for a long time. I'm more surprised there's a BitCoin futures market. Futures markets for onions are verboten!
I think with the current Brexit exchange rate this equates to a large bag of candy. Higher skilled employees require more sugar for cognition and literally gain pounds.

Well that's nice. I hope they continue that.
If you have a .doc file and don't own Microsoft Word, you no longer have a usable document. That's the kind of thing he's talking about.

Are you eating these on a full time basis or just suggesting it?
What does that matter? I got blood all over my hands earlier while eating a cow's liver. I washed it off.
Or maybe high risk military targets can take their meetings to a place beyond civilization where a military force with full air support isn't required for talking to each other. If society is to this point, they can have their own danger island away from the people they supposedly protect.
