  1. Should the AI generate shortcuts for us? on Incorporating Machine Learning into Firefox 2.0? · · Score: 1

    Should the AI generate shortcuts for us based on our use? Say we keep doing some repetitive task, should the app then say "press blah blah" to automate this task, and then that key combo becomes the automation shortcut? I assume if someone does a task a certain amount of time they might want it automated

  2. How about organizing it visually? on Incorporating Machine Learning into Firefox 2.0? · · Score: 1

    This way a user can always review this stuff with complete ease of use.

  3. If thats the case, why do we need companies? on Father of DVD Gets Bitter Reward · · Score: 1

    Wby not just work for ourselves? Why should we work for a company if theres no job stability?

  4. huh? on Father of DVD Gets Bitter Reward · · Score: 1


    This is not a socialist rant. Employee's don't have to run the business, I'm saying there should be no boss/worker structure. Let the people vote for all I care, I just want a democratic process.

    Whats that have to do with socialism?

    If a boss can fire an employee just because they feel like it then something is wrong.

    yes their race matters.

  7. It is certainly ethical. Humanity comes first. on Terraform Humans First, Then Mars? · · Score: 2, Interesting


    We should do whatever it takes to establish and secure the survival of our own species first. So yes its ethical. Should we do it now? That's debateable.

    I think it might be a good idea to start now before we destroy ourselves in nuclear war or face over population and capitalism collapses. However we should limit the amount of money we spend on this project and perhaps our great grand children will actually see this project completed.

    Right now our main concern should be preventing our own self destruction here on earth.

  8. Thats why we need to change the interview process on Resumes for New Grads? · · Score: 1


    Why should humans do job hiring? The computer could and should be able to analyze all PDF resumes in a matter of minutes.

    Why not let a computer give each resume a score based on what's required for the position and simply have the person with the highest score be automatically hired.

    I see no point to having humans do this, or in having an interview process. Humans when it comes to this stuff are just not as efficient as computers and never can be as efficient. This would be equal to using humans to givee all grades. Teachers use computers and grading standards for a reason.

  9. Dreamcast did not fail, Sega failed. on Microsoft's Rush To Xbox 2 A Danger? · · Score: 1


    The Dreamcast on paper was a success. It sold very well, and it was a good system from a hardware and software point of view. The price was even great.

    Why did it fail? It failed because Sega lacked the money to pay for its marketing, Sega lacked the business sense to develop games and then profit from them (Sega developed hundreds of games with no way to make the money back)

    Ultimately Sega broke themselves and wasted all their money on game development when they should have just made 10 good games a year like Nintendo.

  10. Sony is Japanese on Microsoft's Rush To Xbox 2 A Danger? · · Score: 0, Flamebait


    The real reason that companies are kissing Sony's ass is because Sony is a Japanese company. Japanese studios never support American companies no matter how good Microsofts hardware or software is they will never win the Japanese developers. The problem is the Japanese developers make all the good games and these developers are all loyal to Sony because Sony is run by Japanese people who look like them.

    So the real reason Microsoft can't win developers is pretty obvious and until western developers can make decent games everyone will buy a PS2 and then a PS3.

    Microsofts best move right now would be to buy Sega.

    The network is nice, I admit I use it myself but its not new technology. This also is not a new network because I've been using it for a while. I don't know why this site decides to post this to the top of the page when other P2P news far more important is not posted.

    You arent a real software engineer then. Anyone can be a programmer and no one needs a programmer. Try working on something more advanced, like AI and see how far you can go without an education

  15. Wrong on Japanese Anime Industry In Danger Of Fragmentation · · Score: 0, Flamebait


    How do you know? The culture has very little to do with the ability to produce a good story with good animations. Also lets not forget they can always hire Japanese to create the story and just hire Chinese to create the graphics

  16. You live in China? Isnt this good news?! on Japanese Anime Industry In Danger Of Fragmentation · · Score: 0, Flamebait


    I think outsourcing for high tech or high skill industries are bad because people invest their entire lives going to college and getting degrees. These arent the type of jobs that anyone can do and this is a matter of national security as well because a country generally should protect its high skilled knowledge producers. These people are the people who innovate, the same people who created the atomic bomb.

  17. Yes which is why we all must move to China. on Japanese Anime Industry In Danger Of Fragmentation · · Score: 0, Flamebait


    Thank you for stating the obvious. I guess you are trying to advertise your home country.

    Don't worry, soon millions of Americans will be moving to China, trust me.

  20. please on Japanese Anime Industry In Danger Of Fragmentation · · Score: 1


    Almost any of us could draw anime. You don't have to draw high quality detailed super realistic characters, you just have to draw a lot of cels.

    Drawing the same character over and over becomes easier each time you do it, the same backrounds and the same stuff. I don't see a shortage in artists. I do think the style for Japanese anime might be a barrier but thats it.

  21. Outsourcing is good, stop whining on Japanese Anime Industry In Danger Of Fragmentation · · Score: 1, Flamebait


    You act as if the entertainment industries are essential industries. Outsourcing is good for these industries because with P2P, the price from which anime DVDs or movies can be sold will go way way down. This is actually going to lower the price and increase the availibility of Anime to all the fans.

    This has nothing to do with idealism. Outsourcing is good period because capitalism works on competition. Outsourcing is good and if you don't like it you can move to China.

  22. Good, it should be outsourced. on Japanese Anime Industry In Danger Of Fragmentation · · Score: 1



    Anyone can do this job and if any job should be outsourced its the anime industry. Theres billions of people in China, India, etc.

    How is this good? If Anime movies become cheap enough to produce we all get cheaper movies with more access to them.

  23. Who cares? on Japanese Anime Industry In Danger Of Fragmentation · · Score: 1



    Are any of us Japanese? Why should we care about the Japanese Anime industry? So now China is making labor cheaper? Great. We get more Anime.

    For industries like this outsourcing is good, outsourcing is only bad for high tech / high skill industries. Manual labor should be outsourced.

    With all of our technology, all of our skill and talent, and all of our money I'm sure we can come up with some way to provide ourselves with a TV community. I mean we came up with slashdot and all these websites online, we need to do the same sort of thing on TV.
