Can't they finally shoot the Ring World or something like that with the same Will Smith as the main character? Jesus holly fucker.
Oh god. I read that as “Right Wing World. *shivers*!
But you must know, that for the business people, everything revolves around an imaginary concept called “IP”. And they want to milk every “IP” for as long as possible, before risking something new. Which usually means: Until the whole population completely and utterly hates it!
I think making art a business in just plain wrong. And “IP” is disgusting and perverse.
Works like this for all people with a god complex. Just ask your doctor if aids/cancer/etc can be cured. And notice that he will never say “I don’t know” or “Not yet.”, but always “There is no cure.”, as if he knew that for a fact there could never be one. Some people are just a little too secure (read: delusional) in their reality.
Exactly. This is actually a 5D game in our 4D world, displayed on a 2D display.
I think it would be much easier to see a 4D space when you’d have a 3D volume using the same projection effect as when you see a 3D space on a 2D screen, except with one dimension more. It would look weird, but it would be a better way to get a feeling for it, than looking at it on a 2D screen.
I raise you a Dick Cheney! Owning his own secret stamp, a man-sized safe, shooting his friend in the face (*nudge-nudge*), looks like Darth Vader and Dr Betruger’s love child in a wheel chair, and having the child censorship filter he promoted block his own site for sexual content (his name: Dick).
You can not possibly beat that one! ^^ (Also, you don’t want to. Ewww...)
Yes it does give you the authority! Do you know nothing about how servers work?
If you look at a page on the web, you send a message to the server, asking “could you please give me that page there?” And the server then can decide under what conditions it honors your request. These rules are decided by the site hoster upon installation. If the server gives you the page freely, and without any conditions (which nearly all web servers do), then you can do with it whatever you want.
Or in short: You passed it on. You split control. If you wanted something or some rules, you should have demanded them. Now it’s too late, so quit bitching! Maybe you learn something from it for next time.
That the laws of some fucked-up pseudo-government have nothing to do with, does not change a thing of those basic physics-based rules of reality.
My understanding is that an endless task is finite at any point in time, but continues to grow for eternity.
My understanding is, that there is no such thing as infinity, but only endlessness. And that in mathematics, infinity and zero should be redefined as endlessness, with a time coordinate attached to it. This would solve division trough zero beautifully. In my opinion, in mathematics, every set of operations in sequenced, and hence you can not have a complete theory, without including this, and its result: A time-line. If you try to work with infinity in something like Haskell, you get this exact result. Infinity equals an endless sequence of operations. Make it into a list of partial results, and you got your time-line.
I can imagine the AI running on Linux. But what cruel bastard would let a poor AI run on PHP and MySQL?? It has done nothing to you! It’s like holding a newborn baby in a room full of booby traps, spikes, and on tranquilizers that make it move in extreme slow-motion. But at least without windows!;)
I have always said, that psychology and nowadays even neurology, suffer massively from the Rube-Goldberg-machine syndrome. The brain is an extremely emergent. Perhaps the most emergent system known to man. Compared to the results, the basic rules are extremely simple. But they seem to try to analyze all those resulting effects, as if they were additional specific rules, instead of just results of the basic rules.
I am absolutely certain, that if you create a set of simulated life-forms based on “blank“ neural nets of a sufficient size, including hormones / neurotransmitters, and let them evolve trough natural selection so they modify themselves, that it is only a matter of time, until you will come up with a working life-form of the same or higher intelligence than a human. Of course this life-form will have a different base layout if it has different priorities. But there is no need for any additional rules, other than those.
And I am also certain, that I will be proven right in my lifetime.:)
text messages have no guaranteed delivery and will simply be dropped in case a link is congested
WTF? I paid for that thing! I paid 3500 times the actual price! And they dare to not deliver it?? That’s called fraud, and will land them in court, if they ever try that on me!
Ok, I know that it’s about 3500 times the actual price, because I’m using an instant messenger on my phone, and I can send roughly 3500 messages of SMS size trough it, to get to the same price for the data, as a single SMS message would cost.
People mix up versioning schemes quite often, because they think that there are only three version number levels. When really there are four, and most projects choose to compress them to three. (Often not at the exact level boundaries.)
Everybody knows the major and minor version. And most also know the patch level. E.g. 1.10.753. But there is one level that is bigger than the major version. It is the same one, that is the number in “SomeMovie 2” or “Doom 3“. One could call it the “generation”. It’s a level that shows the number of events that a comparable to complete rewrites. (And every project without exception needs those, after some time. Or it will end up like Windows ME.)
So this 1.0 after 10 years, is more like this complete rewrite thing. Where you start completely over with your thoughts and goals. One could say that many 1.0 closed source projects are very comparable to 0.1 or maybe 0.33 in open source projects. They are certainly not on the same completeness level as 1.0 open source projects. Which is logical, with them having to be only good enough to make money. Which developers in open source projects want to get it done right and make it perfect. (In their own eyes / ideals.)

But does it run Linux?
(If so, we’re fucked!)
Protip: Speeches like these will get you laughed at in other countries.
We laughed our asses off, or cringed from the cheesiness, here.
I have the best defense: Dude, I’m not even in your country! And guess what country your country owes shitloads of money? Mine! ^^
What creative person??

Well, nerd rage... it’s what continued sex deprivation does to you... ^^
Yes! And:
It rubs the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever it is told.
Got it? ^^
PostScript, the basis of PDF, is a full, turing-complete programming language! This has nothing to do with JavaScript!

Quite often is it claimed that pure open source projects can't survive, much less grow and create robust code.
By who?
Wait, let me try that too:
Quite often is it claimed that mjhuot can’t get women, much less grow and sustain a robust boner.
Yay, I can make up every bullshit I like!!
Maybe I am the next “story” writer?
These fences are not going around a herd of sheep by any chance, are they? ^^

FORTRAN doesn’t run. It limps. At best. ^^
But that is an inclusive OR. ^^
I wonder if they will go the Dark Matter/Energy way, and simply call the universe wrong. ^^
Actually, it’s the other way around. This is older.
But I still agree that now I won’t believe any anti-ACTA statement from the EU, until ACTA is dead, buried, and all its successors too.
Germany here.
Despite the fact that we didn’t ever elect them, they are called “our” government.
Actually, they are more like your enemies.
