    If the watermarks are different in different streams, for example (for identification of origin?), how about combining multiple streams?

    There's a lot of nurture component in brain development and we've known about it.

    And that has to do with electromagnetic induction in large-area current loops from varying large-scale magnetic fields...uh, what exactly?

    Has anyone ever disputed that intelligence can be developed? Mental exercises have been a thing for decades, if not longer.

    Skill is "I can repair bicycles." What kind of skill is intelligence? I never said that traits can't be cultivated. Doesn't make them skills, though.

  6. "Soft skills"? on Revisiting the Jobs Artificial Intelligence Will Create (mit.edu) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Complex reasoning is "a soft skill"? Since when? (Also, I'm somewhat dubious that any kind of intelligence can be labeled as "a skill", as opposed to a trait or something.)

    FYI you shield electric transmission by burying it.

    EMP works through electromagnetic induction. How do you propose to shield buried cables magnetically? They'll still get affected.

    Perhaps it didn't happen in actual history, but it doesn't sound implausible to me that someone at that time *could* have build usable relays a few decades earlier for Babbage. Well, maybe mass manufacturing would have been a problem? But I've always thought that the electromechanic route still would have been more achievable than precision mechanics for a large computer.

    I dunno, it seems to me that relays would have worked just fine.

    When was the last time you used a 15 year old 700MHz Pentium III? Eight years ago?

    It is only really the default configuration of older PHP versions that make it so much more practically insecure.

    So the fact that PHP can introduce weird bugs due to surprising behavior of even basic operations is irrelevant for security now?

    In reality, JavaScript should be higher up on this list, because some of it's innate behaviors are so badly designed they cause vulnerabilities that can't be mitigated in any way other than simply not using it.
