I worked at a wafflehouse and I'm pretty sure that everything was determined by big data; how many servers and cooks they had on a shift, the amount of food they ordered from corporate, the type of food. I'm pretty sure that the only restaurants not using this kind of information would probably be local restaurants but a lot of times they're either not big enough to use it, or it's just too expensive or complicated.
Ah. I made typos. *The model*, *shoving*. I really wish slashdot gave us a way to edit typos. Just give us a 2 minute window or something. It's way too easy to typo on mobile especially when the input field shows 5 lines of text.
Can we please just change model away from the "political spectrum". Otherwise it just becomes a game of everyone calling all right-wings Hitler and all left-wings Stalin. Let's make it a political forest where we have a bunch of political trees such as conservatives, liberals, libertarians, progressive conservatives, etc. That are all able to have their own political stance without this game of strawman shovong eachother into political stances that nether side actually believes.
Oh, on a side note this site is called slashdot. It's a site about technology.
Ok, so I'm like 100 percent certain that there's going to be some sort of EULA or shrink-wrap/click-wrap/whatever license that releases them from liability for streams that fail to reach the maximum possible quality due to an insufficient internet connection.
You are ignoring the NAND shortage. Nintendo is in direct competition with Apple, a company with a nearly bottomless wallet, for procuring flash memory for their products which are in high demand. Apple is currently buying a lot of memory for its new upcoming Iphone model, which it expects to sell better than previous generations, and they're willing to pay to ensure that they can get as much NAND memory as they can. Of course this is a worldwide shortage of NAND so SSD makers and any company who needs flash storage are also competing as well. Now ignoring the Switch for a moment and looking at the SNES classic, the reason for Nintendo's inadequate numbers is because they wanted to make a limited edition product that would be a collector's item. That said their reasoning is entirely stupid and they should just make the product in a quantity that everyone can buy it. People want to and it could make them a lot of money. It's not like they'll make anything off the second hand market where it'll actually sell for a high price. (Btw sorry for the wall of text. I'm on mobile and slashdot keeps removing any attempt I try at creating paragraphs)
That's kind of Nintendo's thing isn't it? Try to create a new experiences that people haven't experienced before. It is what makes them money after all. The Wii u had some legitimately good games after all, Sm4sh, Splatoon, Poken tournament, among others, so of you didn't have fun with the system that's your fault. IMO I think the Wii U's failure was the admittedly stupid decision to call it Wii U and confuse customers who thought it was just another Wii with a bigger controller, which if they already have a Wii why would they need another. Their other mistake was making said bigger controller unable to work apart from the system.
I'm honestly a little surprised to see someone fairly point out that Nintendo actually has some legitimate reasons for not being able to match production of the Switch with demand. Reasons other that them being an evil greedy company who is trying to artificially inflate demand that is (which is not the case just to be clear). Of course with that said, and mind you I am in fact a Nintendo fanboy, they're still a greedy company trying to artificially inflate demand if you just turn your head you see the whole NES and now SNES thing, with them being produced at a stupidly low number to try to force them into being collectors items.
It's not about business tactics. When you crowdfund you essentially become an investor. Where professional investors get equity crowdfunders get a promise to be delivered upon success. Whether or not success happens or not your money was spent on a dream not a finished product.
This sort of thing can't be blamed on the start-ups, it's not like they go out of their way to fail, but rather it's the fault of those crowdfunding it for gambling on a product that hasn't been made yet.
Arkanoid and the rest of the games on this wikipedia list?

I think at this point it's become a genre of games. Which makes it silly to try to claim IP considering they already dropped the ball 30 years ago.
Yes, but I doubt that Ebola took 4 years to cause a single death. The fungal infection was discovered in 2013, if it were to be as deadly as the title makes it sound then I'd expect to have seen something by now.
I admit I'm a little confused. I'm getting mixed messages from this. Is the fungal infection deadly, or have there been no deaths from it. I admit I haven't read the source yet but it's sounding to me that it's not deadly and rather the concern is only the fact it's drug resistant.
But don't you usually use anti-fungals on fungal infections? I could be wrong but I thought antibiotics usually only target bacterias or rather fungi are usually used to create antibiotics.
Whenever you make a hire for any reason other than "this person will do well at this job" you introduce politics into the workplace. Politics in the end is successful at doing one thing better than anything else, creating toxicity. Look around at the discussion for this post if you need proof.
In the end using the guy you commented on as an example of "sexism" isn't really correct. It's not sexism it's an overreaction to toxic, political elements introduced into a logic based work field (no offense meant in calling it an overreaction). In the end it will only cause people to feel resent and think "why did they get hired. They aren't qualified to be my peers". Whether or not that's right is another matter, what does though is that politics and the tech industry does not mix.
Unless you live where I do and they put one up for the construction that's currently going on. Every rule has exceptions and being able to adapt past common sense rules like this one is why self driving cars won't be fit for the road for probably another 10-20 years IMO.
Actually I own 2 apple products and think they do an amazing job with their security on their mobile devices, though win10 > Mac (I prefer something that cab play video games). That aside I do believe any new technology can and will be abused and so far the track record for anything media related is to abuse them with advertisements. I very much expect once augmented and mixed reality displays go main stream were going to end up the same way with augmented digital billboards and the like.
Why is this a troll? I'm just pointing out that considering both cable TV and the internet were both ad free at some point (especially cable since it's selling point was specifically that) advertisement managed to worm it's way into both technologies. Considering the track record it's not too much of a stretch to assume that someone somewhere is going to figure out how to advertise to these and whether or not the courts rule it as an invasion of privacy or not someone will probably still attempt it at some point.
How did this make it on Slashdot? For the most part I'm willing to deal with politics that relates with technology on this site but this doesn't have anything to do with anything.
Am I the only one remembering Star Trek? Or what about the Asgards from Stargate? pretty sure that this whole issue about gene editing has been universally regarded as a terrible idea right up there with skynet and grey goo.

With my eyeballs and a pair of eclipse glasses. Joking aside the total eclipse was the most amazing thing I've ever seen.
