So just release a modified version of Wolfenstein that focuses on commies rather than nazis called "Trotskydoom" wherein the objective is to blow away all of the Bolsheviks that are confiscating food from the farmers to impose the famine of 1921 on rural Russians.
I mean, come on, there isn't anywhere in the world the hammer and sickle are outlawed and the commies killed far more than the nazis did so it should be even more fun than Wolfenstein!

What would you suggest is a good English language corpus as a test of your assertion?
Set up a prize competition for kernel compression similar to the Hutter Prize for Lossless Compression of Human Knowledge except the objective is the produce an executable binary of minimum size that expands into a fully functional kernel.
The goal of this competition would be to obtain the optimal factoring of the kernel architecture.
The Hutter Prize's incremental prize awards for progress, itself modeled on the M-Prize, is a superior way of awarding prize money. There is continual reward for teams that contribute substantially and no one team takes everything based on a technicality.
This is just one more demonstration of the power of prizes for objective criteria -- as distinguished from "grand challenges" that are little more than RFQs.
Could turn into a buy-off of a threat to big aerospace.
If NASA were serious they'd cut out all their launch technology development and just put up a $2000/kg bounty for reaction mass delivered to orbit, by any domestic system, at the desired inclination and altitude, starting immediately. Grab it with a tug later.
You can always use reaction mass.
Let the industrial learning curve do the rest.
Of course, if they did that, launch services would become so affordable, there would be private space stations and they'd lose their mandate for big bucks operational budgets and have to go back to science.
TFA: " IQor has big-name clients in finance, media, and telecom..."
TFA: "In the past four years, iQor employees have referred more than 7,000 people to HR, and the company has paid out over $1 million in referral bonuses. Motivating a workforce to take referral bonuses seriously enough that management can replace headhunters is impressive."
You're so provincial in your definition of "human"! When I speak of a veritable cornucopia of ecological foment as the body of an AIDS patient, do you think I am speaking of an ecology or of a human or perhaps, duh, of a human ecology?
The important thing about ecologies is whether they help help each other have babies the way, say, dogs and humans have done for so long that they are genuine symbionts -- or whether they can show up, party, and move on like a coked out 70s rock band in a Hilton. The thing that makes these new parasites overlords is that they are mobile so they are unencumbered by such mutualistic constraints!
I, for one, welcome our new parasite overlords! Parasite Rex gives unto us that ultimate in human values: vibrance - yea a veritable cornucopia of ecological foment that is by the body of an AIDS patient.
Interstellar refugees are basically colonized indigenes but with antigravity hyperdrive and tentacle lips.
I await with bated breath Obama's critique concerning this teachable moment in cinema history!
The French, once again, demonstrates their leadership in the politics of inclusion by admitting this woman whose body represents a veritable cornucopia of diverse ecological foment.
The following are provided in order to assist the industry in identifying suspicious orders:
An individual who desires to pay cash and wants to pick up the chemical(s).
An established customer who deviates from previous orders or ordering methods.
A new customer or unfamiliar representative of an established customer who orders listed chemicals.
A customer who has difficulty in pronouncing chemical names.
A customer who is vague about its firm's address, telephone number, and reason for desiring a listed chemical.
A customer who wants a listed chemical shipped to a post office box or address other than the usual business address.
A customer who prefers to pay by cashier's check, postal money order, etc.
A customer who will not furnish references or who is vague about furnishing references for credit purposes.
A customer who desires listed chemicals for reasons at variance with accepted legitimate industry practice.
A customer who is not a member of a trade, professional, or business association.
A customer who furnishes false or suspicious addresses, telephone numbers, or references.
A customer who refuses or is reluctant to establish a credit account or provide purchase order information.
A customer whose communication either by telephone, mail, or other means is not conducted or prepared in a professional business manner.
A customer who requests unusual methods or routes of shipment or who provides unusual shipping, labeling or packaging instructions.
A customer who purchases unusual quantities or combinations of chemicals or glassware in contrast with customary practice and usage.
A customer whose stated use of listed chemicals is incompatible with destination country's commercial activities or consignee's line of business.
A customer with little or no business background information available.
A customer using a freight forwarder as ultimate consignee.
The use of intermediate consignee(s) whose location or business is incompatible with the purported end user's nature of business or location.]
Evasive responses to any questions, or responses that indicate a lack of basic knowledge of the industry, or inability to supply information on whether listed chemicals are for domestic use or export.
It's sort of like the deal the Feds have with chemical supply companies:
Report anything that individuals buy that might be used to engage in illegal activity.
Well since they aren't going to sell real electronics anymore, maybe they'll stop reporting who is buying what electronics components to the government. Or am I thinking of the 80s?
When reading their press releases, look not for the number of gallons of oil per acre, but for the gallons of oil per dollar invested in the photobioreactor (or pond). If they give you the former and not the latter, they're probably scamming.
It's interesting that the fearmongering of the prior/. post about AI got hundreds of responses but this/. post, which is far more relevant to real AI, has gotten less than a hundred responses thus far.
Anyway, congratulations to Netfilx for doing the right thing for their business in response to The Hutter Prize.
The light emitters should also be longer-lasting because DNA is a very strong polymer, Sotzing says. "It's well beyond other polymers [in strength]," he notes, adding that it lasts 50 times longer than acrylic.
Strength as a material property has no time dimension.
What material property is Mr. Patel referring to in his paraphrase of Sotzing?

There hasn't been anything remotely original put out by the music "industry" since 1971.
