It's apparent that computers in education are now used for keyboarding and application training. When computers were new in 1980's, Programming in logo and basic was commom. With the level of complexity and overhead with the new applications languages, programming has been relegated to HS and UNI courses. I appears the asshats that advocate crap like c++, java and c# are using the same wizard obfusication to block out any new developers and create job protection. We need to get education back to ideas like Squeak and logo and C. The new "languages" are nothing but glue to connect libraries and teach NOTHING.
a car that can autotomously navigate an undivided road covered with snow and ice, unsanded and unplowed with a 1000 Ft. dropoff, No guardrails.
For 6 years at times, I hugged the ditch, just catching the left tires in the exposed edge and driving at 5 miles/hr. I'd like to see a machine get past the first curve. Since Darpa's little game seems to have gone to shit, state of the art is looking pretty crude. Maybe in the big city, but then you're surrounded by idiots with guns and attitudes, how about you robocar cutting off a bunch of thugs? Just like AI, Driving is something that cannot be automated, unknown conditions and events cannot be programmed. I wonder how machines will decide when the going gets to rough to continue, and what's the "fail safe" mode?
HMO's main goal is to reduce patient expenses. If you can get a patient out of the hospital and walking around where the business isn't being sucked by patient expenses, that is a good thing. If they Die, that's a problem for the insurance company, Not the HMO. All the better. Cheers.
Starting annual base pay for fresh graduates in Accounting is PhP176,976.00, while graduates from the Computer Science program can expect an average annual salary of PhP195,971.00.
A philippines peso is worth ~1.8 US CENTS.
So:
Conp Sci starting is about 3500 bucks a year!
that's 10 US a day.
Of course, Good rum is a dollar a fifth.
and the worlds best weed is almost free.
It's apparent that ADSL access causes extreme stupidy for the OP. If I was OP, i'd worry about the blanket of radiation fron the local cell towers, commercial radio/tv and service radio. Having performed RF radiation studies, I can assure that the wildlife are less threatened by rf radiation than those morons that insist in living in rat nest like dwellings in the big city.
Our area didn't have ANY local net access until 1998. Finally a ISP decided to POP our space, It was $25.00 a month for dialup. Now, in 2005 We have another at $20.00 a month, dialup. These guys serve customers that not even AOL will touch.
Problem, These ISP's get most of the income from populated areas, Not the wind blown barrens. What the fuck am I going to do when they dry up and blow away? $300 a month satellite?, Dialup at 10 cents a minute?
Screw that. Unless the GOV or Google or Intel comes up to the plate and agrees to give everybody/everywhere free wi-max for the cost of a card, I'm target shooting towers.
Is that TOO FUCKING NEGATIVE FOR YOU?
PS: I never read the OP, Bwahahahah
used them all, just like DOS or OS8, there is a common thread. And that thread isn't the future of thinking machines. Until we get something that isn't silicon based JimD. (kook)
was the cause of the collapse of the USSR and the start of the new world order. He was also an movie actor, ( a shitty, B grade one at that ) so I call this on topic. Remember, He said the military needed new costumes.
They fail to see the difference, except the military uses live ammo and the blood is real.
Some times, reality is even dumber than the movies.
I'm waiting for part 2, The end of the world, As we know it.
that will shut down any developing country's tech infrastructure by shorting out all the technology. It sounds like a great way to return upstarts like India or China to a agrarian state. Another use would be self destructing electronics. Looking at my kids 2 year old ps2 though, I guess they already have perfected that idea. JimD.
Ok, Life is disposable. We should explore the innerspace of DNA and exploit everything we can discover, including transspecies DNA integration. What about killing our dependence on burned petrochemicals? Let's use nuclear to save the feedstock of recyclable petrochems we will need in the future. We need to explore and exploit every radical and socially tastless techonology if humans want to exist on this wet blue rock 200 years from now.
Fuck that shit building tin cans to send PhD's to their death at 1B a shot. ( maybe not a bad idea)
Doh! I'm drunk, it's the iAXP423, it was the reality ada/pascal implementation of the dream processor, it ran like a two legged dog. And died like same staggering on Interstate 101 in the dark.
The processor isn't the X86, It's a resurrection of the IXA432, extended to 64 bits in the latest process. Woz asked for and got tagged lisp extensions and support for superdrive. I swear, I read it on the internet. Or maybe it was./?
