For whatever reason, apparently due to some quirk by some past Slashdot management, I never get mod points, so it seems to me that the best I can do is to comment that a post is good when I see an exceptionally good post, and yours is a good post. Likewise, I also point out when a post is bad and hint at why in a way that amuses me.
I buy from Steam bundle sites. Humble Bundle is generally the best of them all and I buy from it the most. It also sells mobile bundles and book bundles which I also buy. I have no qualms about infringing copyright and am even going so far that it is a religious belief that I have that I should be free to engage culture as I see fit and to impose government restrictions on me infringing copyright infringes on my religious freedom which according to the Constitution should take priority.
If your brother isn't making money from his ebook for whatever reason, it isn't a real job. If he can make money from book-concerts that is a real job. If he can in fact make money from selling ebooks then it is a real job. Regardless, your brother should have a real job.
I am developing the claim that I have a religious belief that accessing culture on whatever terms I please is beneficial and that prohibiting me and others who share this belief from doing so is religious persecuted and prohibited by the Constitution. If I understand some of Trey Gowdy's recent statements right, according to him I've got a strong case. Not that I'm relying on him as a good authority, mind you. It is important to make yourself someone they don't want to mess with, though.
What makes them cubbyhole categories in your mind. They are use cases. So what if your home system is Gentoo? You are applying a different use case and it cannot usefully be compared to a Gentoo system being used as a server for security. You want completely different software installed on it so it presents completely different attack vectors.
I don't expect Microsoft to look after my interests. That's why I actually buy books that are published on Windows internals. Yes, they exist. Windows isn't the black box people make it out to be.
I was learning about constructing neural nets on my own. My first approach involves initializing a net with random connections and strengths. I then run data through it, selecting synapses that were involved in correct outputs to be somewhat preserved. I then randomly modify a few synapses. If there are more correct outputs on the data, then I keep the new net and then repeat the randomization process. Otherwise I revert back to the old net and repeat the randomization process on it.
I don't want to hand you a set of balls and see what you do then. You seem to be using a slightly different definition of juggling than the article is, and the detail that interests me is that it doesn't occur to you to figure out how they are using it before making your pronouncement.
That has less to do with being able to generalize and more to do with identifying what is "important", which of all the pieces of data are the ones to send a signal about. In fact, the fact that a dog can do those things illustrates a likelyhood that a dog can generalize, even if he is slow to figure out what to generalize about.
Originally Windows was essentially a shell over MS-DOS. At that time, Windows was 16-bit and SYSTEM was the directory. Some stuff kind of still wants other stuff there, and this matters in the 32-bit versions of Windows which can still run 15-bit Windows programs and many DOS programs. The transition to 32-bit was not the major compatibility breaking change you say it is. 16-bit calls were thunked to 32-bit routines just as 32-bit calls are now thunked to 64-bit routines in 54-bit versions of Windows.
All right, so you have 32-bit Windows. It puts stuff in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32. You then bolt on 64-bit Windows. Do you put the 64-bit stuff in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM64? Not if you're Microsoft. For them, the correct answer is to put the 64-bit stuff in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 and put the stuff for 32-bit programs that turn them into 64-bit calls into C:\WINDOWS\SYSWOW64
I actually want a Home product that is maintainable. I have health problems though, so my cash is at a premium. I try to make use of Home, but there are features of Pro that would make my life easier in maintaining my and my mom's computers. Then there's no product for maintaining home devices. For that matter, diagnostic messages and recovery procedures of devices and software are garbage. My phone today would attempt to connect to my home network and then not do it. No error message or anything.
I've twice tried to submit a story where we could all get together and issue our friendly challenges regarding Slashdot but they were declined. Eventually I'll likely work up the gumption to try again. Anybody else like to have a go?
If you aren't running Insider builds you really aren't looking after your own interests. That's what I do. I also handle things for my Mom, but she mostly uses it to play Facebook games and other Facebooky things. She does what in her world amounts to "serious stuff" on an Android phone I picked out for her. I also picked out her "Facebook computer".
And which one is that? How do accelerometers work, anyways? Are they all reading 9.8 m/s^2 all the time, because if I understand your post correctly it would seem in your world they do.
Or law in general anymore. Law only gets enforced at the whim of the powerful. For that matter, it's hard to tell what anyone takes seriously anymore, as most people seem to be more eager to be ground underfoot than the people doing the grinding.
Rules get ignored and circumvented. Devices and software have backdoors. I don't see how to make sense attempting to apply the concept in one area to the other.
There are several frames of reference that could be referred to as the rocket's frame of reference. Inertial and noninertial spring immediately to mind. In one of them, the rocket is at rest and not being accelerated.
The quote is bereft of detail. Apparently I and one of the other commenters just choose to apply details that result in one conclusion, while you chose others. The problem that has arisen here is when one of us delares the other incorrect.

Whether or not that is descriptive of me, so what if it is?

All brains generalize. It's pretty much what brains are best at.

I have a saying. National sovereignty is a violation of personal sovereignty. I need to further develop my philosophy, but you gotta start somewhere.
Comparing a desktop operating system. especially one for home use, to a server operating system, is not useful.
Hoped I helped. Society is already badly frayed and this is an area which could result in Tower of Babel levels of falling out if we don't tend to it.

Maybe I "enable" my mom too much.

The current assistant, Cortana is little better. They just made it more intrusive amd replaced a cutesy avatar with a circle.
Maybe we should restore general law literacy first. The way things currently are, law is enforced strictly at the whims of the powerful.
