Yes, but in the good old days, you had no more than one trade mark per maker. SDCC was their unique mark. "con" for "convention" predated them. And "comic" predated them. So they took two common words, and combined them.
In short, they should be able to claim SDCC or Comic-con, but not both.
Yeah, I run a "movie theater" and those fuckers down the street opened a "movie theater" I'm suing their asses.
I went to SDCC '90, and I thought "comic con" was a generic term for all such events. I've been to similar events before and after. Those that went out of their way to not call them comic cons were still called that by attendees, even outside of the US were almost nobody putting it on or attending has ever been to SDCC.
And what about comi-con? It may be spelled comic-con, but it's pronounced comi-con. Or stylized? Kommie-cawn?
It doesn't work for anyone. A low-cal no-sugar diet will be better for you than a low-carb diet. People on a low-carb diet accidentally correlate with one that does work, but that doesn't mean that a "low carb" diet works. The evidence overwhelmingly shows "low carb" diets work as well as any "low cal" diet.
The "conspiracy" against "low carb" diets is called "reality".
Or just good at google. So long as the parent is fair and not a complete douchebag, the child will be given a number. If they have a $50 limit, they'll pick an item at or below that limit. Though arth1 seems to be extremely douchey, so I imagine he'll have hidden limits and secret vetoes. He gets a car, and the kids get coal.
The progress in AI is in re-defining it. We are no closer to strong AI than when we invented the term AI. We just have more classes of weak AI to claim victory over.
Electric would be cheapest without subsidies, but you'd need to remove them from oil and coal at the same time as electric. If you still have all the subsidies on oil and coal, electric with zero subsidy is still close, and wins with trivially small (by comparison) subsidies.
Nope. They pay the most experienced students to come, and claim to pay based on need, not merit.
The starting pay more closely correlates with previous experience, so paying the most experienced to come distorts the starting pay used to advertise the school to other prospective students.
It was designed to not get hit by a tsunami, meaning it had sea walls and the like. It was designed to get hit by a tsunami, in that the battery room, control room, and 99% of the plant was perfectly fine after a tsunami. The only major system missed was backup power. The plant was tsunami hardened, but wasn't hardened against power loss.
You seem to not understand the basics of fukushima. Yet are pretending to be an expert online. What a https://www.penny-arcade.com/c...
You don't understand, yet explain like I'm the one that doesn't.
The plant, in a tsunami zone, was designed such that if it were flooded, there was a 100% chance of a meltdown.
These plants DO NOT have a tsunami event as a design basis event.
Yes, it did. It just didn't plan on that large of a tsunami. You are 100% wrong on every point. Where do you get your information?
with or without an elevated backup power source.
An elevated power source would mean that it was designed to get hit by and survive a tsunami. It was actually designed to that standard, but didn't expect a tsunami to knock out mains power. Have you ever actually read anything about fukushima, or are you just saying the opposite of what I say?
Someone who is too stupid to know about transmission lines is too stupid to understand reality. Now that I've identified the root cause, it's up to you to try to fix yourself.
Solar gets subsidies too.
Oil gets many billions of dollars in subsidies. No other energy source comes close. The only reason the idiots complain about subsidies is that the "targeted" solar subsidies are more visible.
and like an infant, your permanency is too short to see the oil subsidies, out of sight, out of mind.
Let's do away with all these energy subsidies and see who wins out.
Solar. No question. Especially if you include the trillions wasted killing civilians in the Middle East to stabilize oil prices.
A flash flood or other water event, not just a tsunami was a 100% guarantee of meltdown. The design wouldn't be safely shut down in battery time. And the only backup after battery wouldn't work in the wet. The location wasn't the cause. The tsunami was the trigger. But the hubris was the root cause. Cut cutting below minimum safety standards. There were many things they could have done to prevent this. I just identified the one I believe was the cheapest. A small move of the generator and fuel (optional). Having worked with similar facilities, this "patch" is common, all over the world. It's cheap, and it increases safety. Done. And you are the only person on earth that would rather cause a massive incident than perform a '"patch".
So, you'd rather have a meltdown because the cost of a "real fix" is too high for approval, but the "patch" that works shouldn't be done. I live in reality. If $5000 would save $5T, I wouldn't choose a $5T loss.
Having elevated tanks would NOT have guaranteed safety.
There is no "guarantee of safety", only "more" and "less" safe, and a cost to each.
Not placing it in that location would have guaranteed safety.
That's BANANAs. The only "guarantee" of safety is to Build Absolutely Nothing Anywhere Near Anything. You are an anti-nuclear Luddite, not a proponent of safety.
Rooftop solar could power the planet, at a lower cost than nuclear. Nuclear is cheaper only when the government gives the land for free and waives liability.
The fuel tank and generator were on the ground level. If they had put them on the roof, there wouldn't have been a meltdown.
seawall, millions. Designing a safer reactor billions. Putting the generator on the roof of an earthquake hardened building? Cheap.
It was a full on case of stupid, it wasn't an issue of money, it was a case of hubris. The design has a 100% chance of meltdown in a flood. That wasn't cost. That was pure stupid.
I grew up in Texas. All the violent crime was by whites. It doesn't show in the statistics, because you have to charge someone for a lynching to link a suspect to a race of the perpetrator. When the black men are hanging themselves where there was no step to suicide from, but the obvious murder is ruled suicide because the cops know who did it and why, and that N**** shouldn't have been dating a white girl, the guy stabbed himself in the back 7 times as a suicide.
But, thankfully, those crimes are never solved (and go in the books as "not crimes"), so we don't have to worry about throwing off the explicitly racist statistics when talking about racism.
There are plenty of poor areas in which owning a fancy car puts you in great danger.
I've never seen them. I've never even heard of them. If you rob a poor person, they know nobody will investigate. Your rob someone in a nice car, and they *will* find you.You kill the guy to make sure they can't ID you, and they burn the neighbourhood down.
Your statement is something with privilege who has never lived in one of "those" neighbourhoods would say.
Locals target locals, because it's safer. If the LA riots after Rodney King were Compton marching to Beverly Hills and looting Rodeo Drive, do you really think the response would have been the same "contain" response? Hell no. They'd have called out the National Guard and the orders would have been "shoot to kill".
Nobody ever claimed it never happened. Traitors should be treated like Benedict Arnold. Everyone knows his name, and there's no statue to him, just one memorial to a battle he was general in. But traitors from the south got lots of Idols made of them, most on the campaign to oppress Black people, not out of a genuine care for the loser traitor states of America. We don't need memorials worshipping Benedict Arnold to know who he was and what he did. So needing them for traitor terrorists must be about something else. Like White Supremacy.

I know multiple humans that have done the same thing. Perfect isn't the immediate goal. "Beating a human" is a low bar, and autopilot beats it.
It is always easy to see that somebody is clueless, when they use "calories". Use kJ! And never use GI, but only GL
Ah, a units Nazi. That explains it.

So the MSM is liberal, and owned by the 1% and drug companies? How does that work? Rupert Murdoch is a Conservative icon and typical MSM owner.
Wow, I didn't know I had a following. Just send cash.

FWIW, I don't believe that "general intelligence" exists.
So human intelligence is also a sum of narrow AIs? All that means is that your definitions don't match anyone else's.
Says the A/C.

At least until cold fusion. Which may never come.
