Samsung indicated that it'd be able to do many of the same things Bixby can do on a phone.
...so, nothing much of value?
After Samsung stuffed Bixby down consumers' throats on S8 and S9 and would not provide a way to disable that goddamn button, I am staying away from anything Bixby.
Point missed. What jobs will it make the labor available for? High-end jobs only this time. One of the saving graces of the industrial revolution is that it required more warm bodies than it required skilled labor.
Trades, construction, nursing / elderly care, education for starters. All of these fields currently have shortage of labor.
Who in 1900 could have foreseen the airplane industry and the number of people it would employ? A mere 10 years ago, the fields of VR, electric vehicles, smart phones, & data analytics were all so small as to be practically non-existent.
I appreciate the caution, but really, the world will go on.
...said the technology may help reduce the number of calls coming into the bank's compliance call center by as much as 50 percent.
That's great and all, but you can reduce the calls by 99.999% if you force the users through a maze of menu options and prompts.
When our help desk was outsourced to IBM consultants, the metrics were equally impressive. The reality however, is much less so --- most people simply opt not to call now, because the service is so horrible and decidedly unhelpful. ...But the call volume metrics say "job well done!".
This merger should make for a really fascinating corporation.
While at it, why not merge with Monsanto, Halliburton, and Blackwater --- not as if their reputation/image can get any worse...

> The ignorance of looking at a 24 hour 17% drop vs a 300% 12 month raise is astounding. I would think most people who understand financial markets would not be this ignorant to call this a "crash"
You think wrong. For *any* asset type a 17% drop in 24hrs is most definitely a crash.
> Apple is doing the same and now it's doing it with the Macs.
Interesting you say that. After the disappointing release price of Pixel XL, the next phone I'm buying will likely be an iPhone --- their support for old phones lasts 5 years. From what I can tell, iPhones have the longest, most robust support of any of the phones on the market.
Pixel & Pixel XL is promised 2 years of support and a 3rd year of security fixes....for $650 & $750? no thank you!
the beeping is telling you that you're doing it wrong.
box on the front passenger seat means that the front passenger seat's airbag is activated. if you get into an accident, that's an extra airbag you'll need to replace.
the point is --- the seatbelt warning is not the only issue you're having
shouldn't there be a link to an article or a more in-depth argument presented than just "b/c i think so"? Perhaps, say, explain who the hell Miko Matsumura is, or provide greater context?
I get it though, nobody reads the articles on slashdot...:/
The only problem is --- iMessage is not a cross-platform solution. Personally, I'd need it to support OSX, iOS, Android (linux would be nice), and, least important of all (to me), Windows.
It appears as though the priorities are shifting towards airplanes that are cheaper & more suitable for asymmetrical fighting: http://www.economist.com/node/17079443.
still pretty slim, as it absolutely sucks at handling long documents, it doesn't work eliminate white space all that well (think multiple columns, where it matters the most), and its backwards compatibility is not exactly industry-leading.
tex, however, is good at all of the above.
I'm afraid you're right. Had it not been for MATLAB's tremendous mindshare (existing code) in academia/engineering co.'s, I doubt they would sit as pretty right now.
Next time I have to rearchitecture code/start anew, I'm sticking with scipy. Octave is great, but... yeah, as you say, not a real option (it's not drop in replacement, and if I have to rewrite code, I might as well pick a proper language).

Because education isn't something you poor into someone's ear and suddenly they are skilled.
Clearly.

Have you considered that it's not them but you?
Unfortunately, rebuttals to your post betray the thoroughness of Trump supporters' thinking.
Concerns about space would explain the absences/prevalence of standalone vs toilet-seat bidets. It doesn't explain the lack of bidets.
If your investment is a gamble, it's not an investment, it's a gamble.
...What you're failing to consider is the time scale of these changes / effect of compounding.
+300% over 250 days is on avg +0.44% daily:

the difference between revenue and profit has absolutely nothing to do with being a "finance weasel". it is financial jargon, and a basic one at that.
do you really mean to imply that failing to understand the distinction between a monitor and a CPU is protecting yourself from IT weasel-words?

I'm not sure I would consider 6% likelihood of a raise in september a significant possibility.

Holy shit, that's some hubris you got there.
Well, good for you. I can only hope you aren't out sailing with that kind of an attitude.
and that is why i use and will continue to use adblock. the advertisers have given me no reason to trust them.

According to Google not only didn't the report use Chrome 6 for the tests where as the current version is Chrome 8
dude, really? couldn't you have said it without using a double negative?
Why would Oracle do something like this?!?!?
