What on earth is "an Uruguay syndrom", and why does google have no idea either.
And I thought that/.ers were supposed to be smart.
An Uruguay Syndrom[e] is very similar to Collins' Syndrome, except that it is much bigger and involves radiation from uranium fission instead of Cesium/Deuterium. Think of it as an Atlantis Complex times 100.
Why not just listen to video game music? Seems like it was made for the same purpose. When I am coding, listening to video game music doesn't distract my brain, energizes me, and makes what I am doing feel really important. It's awesome.
Seriously, is there any doubt that a computer can easily defeat a human at ___________ that involves _____________?
Of course not. Whenever a computer defeats a human easily, of course it isn't true AI. Computers were better at that all along. Leave that to computers so that humans can do the truly human work.
Really, the summary of this article has made me want to say, FUCK YOU, SLASHDOT! Fuck you for posting shit that really isn't true, slandering a person that I hold in high esteem, and all for stupid fucking mouse clicks.
There's so much work to do that I doubt our tools will ever "displace" us.
I find it so strange when otherwise seemingly intelligent people use the word 'never' regarding artificial intelligence. If our brains operate according to the known laws of the universe, then why would you suppose that the piece of meat between our ears could never be improved upon. Really?! Never?
But you just don't understand. This thing was fucking 3D PRINTED. Everything that is 3D printed is so cool it is downright cold. It'll just cool the room by sitting there not doing anything at all!
Imagine when your coffee maker won't work because it doesn't detect that you've gotten up and into the shower, or the HVAC doesn't kick on for the room you've just entered because the house computer didn't detect occupancy, or the surround sound system malfunctions and thinks there's a party, so it turns on the music loudly at 3am, or the fridge's inventory list gets corrupted and it reorders everything that you have in an already full fridge...
OMG! Teh horrorz! Imagine being inundated with *extra* food. Noooooooooo...
Imagine...
Imagine, your coffee maker works fine for years, automatically making your coffee as soon as you jump in the shower, and then one day, BAM! No fucking coffee. WTF are you gonna do now?!
Stastical modeling that makes a black yellow striped pattern look like a school bus, because it has no concept of anything and not intelligence in any sense of the word and that is the just what fits the statistical model.
No, I think you both still miss the point. I was "first post" before this article, Snowden, or anyone else. I was saying this was happening before even Slashdot's founding. I simply guessed it, well over a decade ago by following the money. Only then I wasn't rated "+5 Insightful" I was rated by my peers as "-5 crazy for saying the emperor is naked."
I'd like to hear him explain his regret in a little more detail. Was it morally wrong? Was it against civil ethics? Was it anti-democratic? Was it illegal? Or was it that they got caught?
He regrets it like he regrets eating that hot chili cheese burrito.
For everyone who is about to object: what do you think a drug bust looks like? They posed as drugs consumers/dealers and busted the parties buying/selling. This seems like what my taxpayer dollars should go towards: stomping out illegal activity where it is prevalent.
Not only is it a complete waste of time and ruins people's lives, it is a fucking waste of my tax dollars. Oh, but they sure are about to win this stupid fucking drug war.
Next you think they'll try to outlaw stupidity, thereby breaking logic once and for all.
They're probably trying to fuck up the classic site so they have an excuse to roll out beta to fix it. It's definitely not displaying properly on my phone anymore.
It is the religion of 'peace'. They just define 'peace' a little differently.
Go out, and spread the religion by any peaceful means necessary. If your friend won't accept Allah, peacefully flog him in the streets. If someone insults Allah, peacefully remove his head. If a group refuses to convert to Islam, very peacefully bring your guns and bombs and peacefully kill as many of them as you can. If possible, obtain a peaceful nuclear weapon, and detonate it peacefully in their cities. They will be at peace. We bring them PEACE in the name of Allah!
In my state they made preschool "free". Within the year the tuition costs tripled from previous levels that were flat the previous 5 years. Every time the government offers something for free it's cost becomes unbearable.
So what you are really saying is that contracting out work that should be handled by the government to private businesses results in problems? Didn't see that one coming.
Nuclear is the only viable solution to replace fossil fuels as our primary source of power generation.
Yeah! You're either for us, or against us. You must be either on, or off. You're like a fucking light switch. There is no room for fuzzy, gray, socialistic, faggotry thinking.
Can't you assholes get that through your thick skulls?!

No need to be a smug dick about it...
Oh! There was a need ... there was a terrible need.
Pay no attention to that massive whooshing sound you hear ...

There, was that so hard?

I would post logged in, but my karma is already as low as can be for deriding fuckin more ons.
I don't get it: why would you be modded down for deriding yourself?

Because backdoors are hard to make secure.
In some countries bribes are just part of doing business. In others it is quite illegal.
So, corruption is okay as long as it is culturally acceptable? I see.
Greed trumps ethics and morals.

In light of what you just said: what is this

If it becomes beta only, I'll become soylentnews.org only.
It's always good when terrorist groups act like 13-year old haxxor boys.
I hope their god is proud of them.
Yeah, joke's on them. Those script kiddies are the 72 virgins!
Somebody needs to write a musical called Seventy Two Virgins for Seventy Two Virgins!

I don't go out to movies because of noise.
I'm sick of hearing people yelling at the TV ...
You go to the movies, and then hear people yelling at a TV?! Are you sure they aren't in your head?
