You can self host your own DNS server inside of your own network. I use Unbound in a FreeNAS jail. You can also use PiHole on a RaspberryPi (or any other machine you have laying around).
That's in a particular browser? Any idea what changed?
AJAXy Web3.0. If you really want to get a browser to fail open Facebook (or have someone that does) in 5-6 tabs and then start a discussion with people in one. Every single tab runs a full stack 'chat client' in Javascript.
Every web page these days has hooks and callbacks to react to every mouse movement or page load event.
Static generated websites with minimal Javascript/CSS have no problem.
I use Jupyter Notebooks in browsers as my main IDE and they run just fine having a few dozen open across different browsers. (Opera, Chromium, Slimjet & Firefox).
Page weights have also increased. The home page of HuffPo was ~10 MB last I checked. Sometimes websites don't even bother to scale down images they load the full sized one then rely on CSS or HTML tags to make it fit.
Page optimization seems to be a lost art now that they assume everyone is running on 100 MB connections. I used to do multiple pages on dialup and it ran fine, these days you can't load a single web page on dialup. (Which a lot of the country is still stuck with).
And yet in some use cases that's the desired behavior.
complaining that your car overheats is wrong
And Michael Schumacher would have good grounds to go back to his engineering team and tell them they screwed up.
But I repeat myself. Why is it "wrong"? Because you don't use your tools the way others do doesn't mean that either case is wrong. It means that some tools are poorly designed for some use cases.
And those surgical or diagnostic fields hold a hell of a lot more liability when the machine screws up
You mean when the Human screws up. All the more reason to get rid of the human.
all human aspects of a job, not just one or two.
Automation has never worked like that. It has always replaced one or two things a human does. Bar codes just automated punching in the price, self scanning machines have just automated 90% of the work making the human do stuff like check IDs for liquor.
Automation on the farm didn't get rid of the farmer, it just changed the role Farmers did. The same with automation and nursing & doctors.
Automation has never been replace everyone doing everything in one swoop it's been incremental improvements here and there.
And robots don't have to be perfect, they just have to be better than the lowest human denominator. They work 24/7. Don't get tired, drunk or play on their phones.
A lot of jobs that will be replaced first by automation are not exactly jobs that are mentally challenging,
Not that true. A lot of jobs that will be first replaced by automation are the one where it's most effective and easiest.
New surgical robots will memorize your patterns and only call you to intervene when something new shows up. Radiology is going to go rather fast since image processing neural nets can look at images 24/7. You could have an X-ray or MRI machine read your diagnostic before you were re-dressed.
In the future putting in an IV is probably going to be a robotic job. It's not something doctors do much, nurses are too inconsistent, with the right imaging a robotic arm should be able to repeatably do it on anyone.
Both this story and the last story are completely devoid of technical details. The only thing this story adds is that Morgan Freeman is going to voice it.
Or for $20 you could have had a 3 day bus ticket that would have taken you anywhere you wanted to. (Vegas has a pretty good public transit system). We rode all up and down the strip, took it out to UNLV's stadium, got between the hotel and the airport.
The 24 hour fare is $8. So for $4 cheaper than your shuttle and only a dollar more than your friend's Uber Ride you could have done as much travel as you wanted within 24 hours.
I've been working on these things as a hobby for the last 7 years,
And I still have my original SheevaPlug that used to run my HVAC from PHP. I tried Vera Lite a few years ago but the UI was terrible and it never worked.
Home Assistant on a Pi took me a weekend... once I had the house wired. The longest part of the process is doing the electrical work. If you have a new build it's much 'cheaper' to the end consumer. It took me an entire weekend of my wife and son out of the house to turn of all electrical and do the manual labor. Did Zuckerberg actually wire his house or did he just used an Amazon, Google or iOS framework someone else developed and pay some local electricians to wire his Z-wave outlets?
And as I said last time, can you please cement in your goal posts.
Define a 'production' run.
There is a good chance these might never make it down to the average consumer. These are going to be bought by fleets in droves. Some people view car ownership like they view horse ownership. No one is going to come take away your hor^H^H^H car.
Is it when they make 1,000? 10,000? When the first corporation buys one? When someone earning less than $50k leases one? What is your goal post for what will *never* happen because every year you're going to get proven more and more wrong. Military and heavy equipment makers have had commercially available options for a while now. Caterpillar, Oshkosh, etc have been beating the tech to death off road since the 2004 DARPA.
Most car makers are going bottom up adding auto stopping, blind spot detection and lane assist to all new vehicles. I wouldn't be shocked if near full autonomy was a software upgrade away.
I honestly don't get how a website for a technical crowd still has people that think this isn't going to happen. Start reading academic papers on picture description and how long we've had the tech to identify every little thing in a photograph. Every time you complete a reCaptcha you're training a google self driving car. Forward neural nets are trivial to run on modern hardware. I wouldn't be shocked if ASIC chips doing image identification were already out there.
The sensors watch 360 degrees, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They don't drink, they don't become tired, their reaction times don't depend on how old they are, they only get better with time. We have to retrain an entire fleet of drivers when they hit 16.
In my opinion for them to be on the road they only have to be statistically safer than a 16 year old. In the future if you want a drivers license I wouldn't be shocked if you had to beat an AI in a driving test. Don't beat the AI, don't get to drive on public streets. That way all of you driving experts on the road can still keep your drivers license. You can still drive as much as you want and never have to worry about a soccer mom again. [Since we're making prediction on Slashdot for the next few decades, expect your insurance premiums to go up, way up. If you own a vehicle that anyone can easily control you are a liability.]
Lead, follow or get out of the way. The rest of us want to move on so 2116 makes 2016 look like 1916,... range(1906, 0, -100).
I've been told on Slashdot that this will never happen. These cars will never be in production. Self driving cars will never hit the road. Google spinning this off meant the technology was dead.
What gives? Slashdotters have never been wrong about technology./s
Bring on the self driving cars. I wonder how much better these vans are against motorcycles vs soccer moms.
Every one knows all statistical studies is thrown out the window when someone gives fake information.
Someday our mathematicians will come up with a way to remove outliers. Until then we will never be allowed to use self reported studies. Or studies that have bad data./s
A large mass of people didn't just go out and vote Trump. Trump did not win this election as much as Clinton lost it. In the few states that flipped from D to R this election Republican votes remained more or less flat.
Stein and Johnson saw massive jumps. People didn't get talked into voting for either of them because of some fake news stories, they went 3rd party after the DNC declared it didn't need or want those pesky Bernie supporters.
Clinton lost because she was Clinton. That is no ones fault but hers and the DNCs.
Every day, more clinton email scandal and no chance for policy discussion.
Because we the media didn't spend a large chunk of its time talking about Trump's pussy grabbing or his tweets. I honestly heard more about Trump's tweets than I did Clinton's e-mails.
So lets not pretend if the e-mails weren't released they would have talked about 'policy' at all.
What exactly did "Russia's" hacking do to help Trump? No one has ever fought the authenticity of the leaked e-mails. Leading up to the election we had plenty of coverage on Trump's mouth (From pussy grabbing and beyond). The only thing the leaks did was validate what most people already thought about Clinton's team.
Look at the numbers for the swing states Trump flipped and secured his win (Wisconsin and Michigan). Republican turnout was near flat. 3rd Parties got a big bump and the DNC took a big hit. These are states that Sanders won in the Primary. The Russians didn't do the DNC primary. The Russians didn't push superdelegate counts before they were elected. The Russians didn't collude to keep Sanders out. The Russians weren't complete assholes to Sanders supporters during the Primary.
Clinton lost because she was Clinton. No amount of word twisting on how it was some IRC user name Vlad is going to change that.
They need to improve their code search function. You'd think that a software code search would be done 'verbatim' but they apparently the same search algorithm as google, filtering out punctuation and the such.
The people that voted for Trump are the ones that voted for Romney and McCain. The reason Trump Won is because Clinton was so toxic everyone that voted for Obama decided to stay home or vote 3rd party. Republican votes in Wisconsin and Michigan were essentially flat while Clinton managed to tank Democratic turnout and Johnson and Stein saw massive gains.
But continue to blame the fact that she lost on thinking that he won.

At this point I'm not sure you don't just find tasks others have already completed and then say it's impossible.

I doubt he did everything from scratch.
Lucida from the University of Michigan looks to be a good self hosted solution to a backend and Jasper a good voice front end.
Home Assistant integrates well with both Google Home and Amazon Echo.
He had to tell the system four times to turn the lights off before it got dark."
Then again, it sounds like he might have. Echo+HASS is much more consistent than that.

If you think most of those are Voctech it just goes to show how out of touch you are.
But continue on what ever rant you were on.
improving availability of education - is less effective as time goes by. Just ask all the 30-somethings with several degrees
You're conflating education with college degree.

So Russia managed to crack DKIM?

Even better, make up what ever information you think they had removed. Did all of the e-mails talking about screwing Bernie really end with "Lol J/k"?
He'll literally have offshore bank accounts and a company to launder that money
