I'd be careful pushing my children to this, though. I redid some plumbing and used some sharkbites and PEX and any idiot could do it, compared to sweating pipe. Some innovative products and some developers willing to fund state representatives in charge of determining construction codes would make a lot of that go lowest common denominator, too.
I've been ignoring that tile, but it occurs to me that the thing to do might be to find where it is and rename a text file to the executable, set ready only, and then hopefully they won't be able to overwrite it. Used to do stuff like that back in the day to kill banner ads in chat programs.
There are ads in one of the tiles in the start menu that you'll almost never notice, and occasional system tray popups to point out that Office 365 would be an upgrade from 2007. I've not seen others. The write-ups on Slashdot make it sound like Taboola is built into the desktop background, but it has been more subtle and relatively easy to ignore since it is essentially pushing for app style purchases... but I can't think of the last time I bought an app for my phone or computer.
Like he said, it would probably depend on the area. Verbal abuse would get the managers fired when I worked in fast food in that time frame. Our staff was mostly high school or college students with some immigrants. The key to always getting your raise was to be functionally bilingual. Learned Spanish better there than in school.
I wasn't claiming the GPU could directly design a more complicated GPU, the analogy is that you can model things more complicated than the platform. With a genetic algorithm you've got the same sort of input and filters as used to get from flatworms to people. It would, admittedly, but difficult to model with as much parallelism as life gets to use, but the generation time could be much smaller.
I'm not sure this is grounded thought... my GPU is capable of rendering a GPU more advanced than itself... otherwise how would we make better GPUs? There's some human input in improving them, of course, but no reason you couldn't replace it with an evolutionary algorithm simulation.
I've read tales of people using SIMs associated with store demo accounts for years for free... it'd be amusing to see people looking for networking hardware at the Pick 'n Pull type places.
I have heard this is the reason most of the wired internet providers are dragging their feet on infrastructure, they're afraid wireless will eat their lunch will negligible last mile costs.
Those are on highways, but the map apps know road conditions where there aren't sensors. Try it out sometime, they're obviously using some swarm data from the cell phones.
Oh yes, validation is very much a cesspool. It's like scriptural interpretation of rules handed down by the Almighty, with sects that interpret different sections different ways, contrary opinions on from auditors from different branches of government. Although I guess if they automated the auditors... then the system might get simple enough to automate me out of the equation eventually.
Thankfully government rules mean someone has to validate all that automation! Although so far what we've done has been more to ensure we can perform work at a competitive price and timetable rather than actually have fewer staff.
Does Facebook keep much locally on the phone? It'd seem easier to just uninstall it, deny having an account at the border, and reinstall whenever. Same as backing up stuff to the cloud.
Eh... the efficiency is going to depend on the enzymes/biochemistry. I don't think you could say one source of energy is necessarily more efficient than another when posting about a novel lifeform. Not as much light on Titan, so even if there were autotrophs they wouldn't necessarily have as much of an advantage as they would on Earth.
I don't think it'd work at scale either, but I suppose I lean more towards the cynical view that no one really tried once they seized power, versus a no true Scotsman view of communism.
I haven't seen any attempts that weren't authoritarianism, even the USSR didn't appear to really have soviets as described in Marx. Now, it may well be that his ideas are entirely unworkable, but I'd tend to agree that no one appears to have tried beyond getting rid of the previous power structure.

Wouldn't an evolutionary algorithm in a simulation make it pretty easy to design something more complex than itself?
Make it GLP and archive for 5 years to be safe.
My workplace blocks the ads so we can all be very productive on Slashdot

Those are all on the edge, which will be new screen space if this is right. So they'll be softbuttons.
They get their cut of the ads and seem to have given up, as far as I can tell. A number of labels put up official videos as it is.

Yes, but look at the difference in cost to insure possessions versus what your car is worth and what you pay for its policy.
Do many phones come with Facebook preinstalled or something? In any case, surely even then you can disassociate the account with it.
Does Facebook keep much locally on the phone? It'd seem easier to just uninstall it, deny having an account at the border, and reinstall whenever. Same as backing up stuff to the cloud.
Why would it do that when it can domesticate us via selective breeding?
I guess it might give your employer a reason to remove Netflix from the blacklist?

Oh, no, that wouldn't be ok either. This is all standard employment practice, although they may not enforce it so much at Arby's.
