Are young girls buying them to play out their fantasies of becoming a game developer or are guys buying them to play out their fantasies of meeting a smoking-hot female game developer? I ask because most of the women I know who are into game development aren't into playing with Barbie dolls. They're usually tom-boy types. Not that that's a bad thing. (I prefer women that way, quite frankly). And one could argue that Game Developer Barbie's skin isn't nearly pasty enough.;-)
Nah, saying, "Hold my beer and watch this," and getting killed in the process is nature's way of thinning the herd. Sadly, we have a monstrous tort system that's feeding the desire to save people from themselves only to breed more stupid people. And the tort bar ensures that they get lots of money for being stupid.
The fact that it needs so many motors just illustrates how inefficient electric motive power really is. Before you say, "Well, what about trains?" I say, yeah, but every car on the train has motors in the trucks.
Except the real problem. The media's coverage in the last week makes me paraphrase Raiders: "That story only had one side to it; are you absolutely sure?" "Yes." "Their staff is too big." "They're digging in the wrong place!"
It's a theory and has about the same validity as predicting global temperatures for the next ten years. Once the reality of removal of subsidies and replacement costs takes hold, cheaper sources will be back.
It's truly amazing to me what an ivory tower Silicon Valley has become. Seems like everybody there assumes that everyone has blazing fast internet that is SYMMETRICAL!!! Sorry, but lack of symmetry is one reason why using the cloud for everything fails. That and speeds that most people are willing to pay for pales in comparison to what Silicon Valley likely averages. Further, they assume that everyone has that kind of speed wherever they go which to them means from the hipster coffee bar, to their fancy-shmancy all-expense-paid offices, to their hipster clubs, to their trendy loft apartment. Newsflash, people, there is a big world out there and it doesn't have 4G access.
It's surprising that there are VERY few places where this treatment is performed. The reason often has to do with the fact that it's labor-intensive and there is no surgery involved.
Sure. Asimov wrote them and they made sense to a whole lot of people so it follows that a lot of people expect things to obey the three laws. I'd be willing to bet that the people who think that never actually read his works to know how often the laws are a problem.
That's not a robot. That's a dumb mechanism. The Three Laws only apply to AI-based robots. Otherwise, the decisions are that of the programmer, a flawed human being.
Sadly, with the every expanding rental economy, there will come a day when your data is held hostage by the software and cloud companies. Never mind ransomware from some former Soviet bloc country. This extortion will be entirely legal.
Bullcrap. That's the same bassackwards thinking that leads to continual erosion of people's rights. This is not like having to suck up surveillance cameras everywhere or tracking of meta data. Authoritarian regimes want you to believe that nothing will change so that you'll go along with their plans willingly. Their M.O. is to propose something that solely benefits them knowing that you'll never say "Nope. Not ever," because you want to be a "good citizen of the global community." That's when they've got you. They use your delicate sensibilities against you. They have been threatening to fork for decades. If they really wanted to do it, they would have done it by now. Call their bluff.
I'm not seeing this here: http://www.fec.gov/pages/broch... However, Buzzfeed is SAYING that the employees don't want the business but I doubt that every single one of them feels that way and they haven't documented that they do. I'd bet that there are employees who don't feel that way but feel that they can't speak their mind without fear of retribution. One could also argue that by not accepting ads for one party, they can't accept ad revenue for another. To do so would imply that they are endorsing one candidate over another.
...When you consider the possibility that he is a virus and leftism throughout the globe is crapware, bloatware, ransomware grinding the simulation to a halt.
I'd venture to say that AI is the opposite end of the spectrum of complexity from web design. Given that, AI development will be the exclusive purview of elite companies that develop it in the same way that nobody makes their own chips and very few people make their own computers from scratch but a whole lot of people with minimal computer knowledge do at least basic web development. You might buy an AI engine from Microsoft but you'll never really know how it works to the point of being able to roll your own. You might say that open-source will handle that but how many people really understand the inner workings of Linux?

If Jobs were still alive and at the helm, he would tell the Chinese to go pound sand.
But hell no! I don't want to be forced to scroll through all the shopping channels and Spanish channels to find what I want.

Plenty of time to clean the bathroom and run a vacuum through the place.

Way back when the original Mac Portable came out. Oh, wait, that was 9.8".
Speaking of treatments that are awesome, Bacillus Calmette-Guerin therapy is fantastic.

They're all dependent on crappy HTML and insane CSS.

Now, if Flash would finally go away...
No, it doesn't. It says that the people can keep and bear arms. It does not say that you can shoot someone for pissing you off.

Unbelievable amount of anthropomorphism going on here. Did they speak English too? Try watching a little less Star Trek.

Because, you know, we can't allow America to be a super power anymore.
Because, you know, death and taxes. Tax rates go up therefore so must death rates.
