  1. Re:Not humanoid robots though on Will Humanoid Robots Take All the Jobs by 2050? · · Score: 1

    me thinks the article runts about humanoid robots, not about intellog... errr intelu...errr bright androids.

    Another thought of course is: WHY the hell does anyone think of bipedal movement as THE method. I can think of several more suitable methods of movement depending on the task to fulfill.

  2. Re:Shipping Laptops on Mailing Disks is Faster than Uploading Data · · Score: 1

    Your statements are true as most of the others. But there is one problem, the world is not United States only. As long as you stay in one country, Shipping hardware with software on to some other branch of your business may be the faster way. It also is without doubt (in most of the worlds areas) the cheapest and most secure way to deliver data.

    When you start delivering data abroad, e.g. from USA to EU or Taiwan, the costs to deliver this data IN TIME and the security involved are surprisingly equal.

    You will have to mind export and import laws in both places, the carrier you use will be expensive in both of the choices you have and the need for security is high in each of the choices you have either.

    Assuming you remain on the legal side of the transaction and do not employ illegal ways to transport the data, it may even be impossible from time to time to even use snailmail.

  3. Re:That's why Germany's Economy is in the shitter. on Working Hard? · · Score: 1

    I beg to differ with both of you.

    The problem here in Germany and in USA now too, is the same. The government is meddling with the market (menas creates laws that are restrictive and counterproductive). Unions are not the main problem, but stupid voters are. We have them in Germany, you have them in USA. Still I would rather have a job in USA then here.
