Forgetting about artificial intelligence for a moment, can we make a computer that is aware of objects? Our brains don't merely respond to stimuli; we see, hear, touch, taste, and smell things.
Even Graham, Knuth, and Patashnik use "=" instead of the is-an-element-of symbol (Hey Slashdot, would it kill you to support Unicode x2208?) in their use of Big O notation. In English, this would be a confusion between identity and attribution.
The difference is that I actually trust big corporations to honor their contractual obligations.
But do you trust them to give you a decent contract in the first place?
Sure, the contract can be filled with weasel words, traps, arbitration agreements, contradictory clauses, etc. But the prisons are filled with weasels, shivs, be-my-bitch agreements, demented Santa Clauses, etc. One of these options is much worse than the other.
WTF? Do you believe that their lawyers are that bad at drafting contracts?
The article said that the USPS delivered 40.9 billion pieces, so they only neede nine cents per piece more. Also, the article doesn't mention Congress giving it tax dollars
And if the US doesn't intervene, and Germany wins WWI, it takes a large part of Russia and gets greater influence over France and Belgium. It retains its militarism and simply waits for another chance to expand.
And so I should believe Lew Rockwell and the heirs on Ludwig von Mises? The latter pretty much lost me when he claimed in Human Action that there are two social sciences: praxeology, which is (almost?) entirely apriori; and history, which is (almost?) entirely empirical.
As for Mr. Rockwell, he would have more credibility if he did not post the anti-vaccination views of Mike Adams http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig11/adams-m7.1.1.html . I prefer pharmaceutical companies making windfall profits to having a repeat of the 1918 flu pandemic.
Slashdot Mirror
How long before someone gets it down to five lines?
1) Oracle is suing Java over Android.
Doesn't Oracle own Java, at least to the extent that anyone owns Java?
Maes is not yet governor (or even governor-elect) of Colorado. Hickenlooper (currently mayor of Denver) may well defeat him in the general election.
Acrobat is underfeatured? I thought the problem is that it is overfeatured, such as allowing certain executables/scripts in PDFs.
What features does other PDF software have that Acrobat doesn't?
To what extent do we learn algorithms?
It's what zombies have for dinner!

It is obvious that he should have fled to France or Switzerland. Hasn't Mr. Childs ever heard of Roman Polanski?
In firefox, edit -> preferences -> advanced -> encryption and go from there.

It could have ended up as a stalemate or a pretty small victory for Germany
Pretty small? Can we say "Treaty of Brest Litovsk"?

Unless it's a subspace transmission, it's not reaching Kronos before September 9th.

Grant, who fought in the Mexican-American War, thought that it was unjust.

Hmmm, which one has the bigger . . . pipe?
And if the problem with broadcast TV/radio is that the FCC has regulated too little (allowing greater concentration of station ownership) or too much?
I'm assuming that you meant the FCC. What kind of market is there in broadband?
So what about non-Affero GPL?
If you only use the software and don't redistribute alterations, then how is the GPL different from the BSD license?
Well it worked for Carly Fiorina. Perhaps Mr. Hurd should consider running for the US Senate.
But if you were the real Kool-Aid Man, you could simply walk through his wall and hand the letter to him personally!
The public welfare can go to hell, as long as Mr. Gates and Microsoft get to charge a toll at the entrance.

I can just imagine the negotiations on that one.
