  1. Re: Poster boys on Saudi Fund in Talks to Invest in Tesla Buyout Deal, Report Says (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 2

    He wasn't asked. Some account on Twitter "asked" him. No one is buying it. No one really wanted him there.

  2. Re:Bias? on NASA Successfully Launches Parker Solar Probe (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    Exactly. Rei would have given you a rundown of the mix of propellants used down to their cost per ingredient. Then he would have explained why launching satellites in LEO is the greatest accomplishment of this century. We all know that SpaceX is on the cutting edge.

  3. Re:aww poor baby on Short-Sellers Sue Tesla After Musk's 'Going Private' Tweets (bbc.co.uk) · · Score: 0

    Don't you get tired of being a corporate cheerleader? It is a strange hobby. If you are concerned about the environment, why aren't you cheering for one of the organizations that actually do something, rather than some corporation that produces cars for the 1%? Tesla will do fine, or not, without you.

  4. Re:Crisper in EU on Will the Food Industry Botch the Introduction Of Gene-Edited Foods? (sfgate.com) · · Score: 1

    A ballet initiative? Are they sending dancers to dance on their crops or something? Amazingly growing GMO crops isn't a requirement for making money.

  5. Re:Is your face private? on Faces Are Being Scanned At US Airports With No Safeguards on Data Use (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    But if you are boarding a plane with a ticket where you checked in with a photo ID...don't they already know you are out of the country?

  6. Really impressive on Julia 1.0 Released After a Six-Year Wait (insidehpc.com) · · Score: 4, Funny

    This is really impressive from the technical standpoint, but I am wondering if they have a Code of Conduct for the language?

  7. Re:Are we in a simulation??? on Study Finds Flaw In Emergent Gravity (phys.org) · · Score: 0

    According to Elon Musk the answer is yes. Of course, he calls people pedos on Twitter too.

  8. Too bad they didn't go with SpaceX for the launch. They would have saved a few bucks. Plus they would have been able to reuse the rocket and it could have been used in the fleet launch to Mars.

  9. Re:Crestron? on Crestron Touchscreens Could Spy On Hotel Rooms, Meetings (wired.com) · · Score: 1

    No we have lots of trade secrets and IP. My gosh, if someone found out about it then they would take over our business. You know like...people who work for the company...we better get rid of them too.

  10. Re:Likely to appease a foreign authoritarian regim on Google Boots Open Source Anti-Censorship Tool From Chrome Store (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    They need to grow to new markets in order to keep revenue up and the stock up. Greed.

  11. Re:Crestron? on Crestron Touchscreens Could Spy On Hotel Rooms, Meetings (wired.com) · · Score: 2

    I think we have a couple where I work too. We better install the patches, otherwise hackers might view...our Powerpoints...

  12. You don't understand. They are scanning the contents of the data you upload. They can't do that if it is encrypted.

  13. Crestron? on Crestron Touchscreens Could Spy On Hotel Rooms, Meetings (wired.com) · · Score: 2

    Geez. They used to make electronics in the 1970s. That is pretty impressive they are still around.

  14. Impressive. So it is like an algorithm, BUT also has Artificial Intelligence. I wonder what makes them think their algorithm is artificially intelligent.

  15. AI Algorithm? on A Small Team of Student AI Coders Beats Google's Machine-Learning Code (technologyreview.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    How does an AI algorithm differ from a plain old algorithm. I am so curious...

    My ISP contract has no restrictions on hookers.

    Many ISPs block it for your protection.

  18. Of course. How do you think the NSA gets the data from? Sniffing traffic? You guys are hilarious.

    OJ killed his wife? Now THAT would be a plot twist. Totally unexpected.

  20. Catching them. on The Pirate Bay Turns 15 (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 0

    Finding the people who run PirateBay and the person(s) that killed OJ's wife have proven to be difficult.

  21. At this point Google doesn't need good employees. They just need seat fillers to keep the status quo. They are rolling in the money.

  22. Basically true.

  23. No, you missed the point. The 1000s of people lining up aren't doing it because they LIKE Google particularly. They just like the stock options and the cachet.

  24. Tech companies are more fascist and corporatist than leftist/progressive. It is no surprise that many of them donate to both the GOP and the Democrats.

  25. There is nothing wrong with choosing morality over money. There are good reasons not to want to work for big tech companies. Morality is one of them.
