Air dryers have been proven to remove far less bacteria than paper towels. For this reason I try to avoid those Dyson dryers, as invariably my hand comes into contact with them when I use them. As for Dyson vaccum cleaners, have a look at the reliability and performance scores they get compared to other quality brands such as Miele.
Kurzweil is obviously a smart guy. However, although his name seems synonymous with AI these days, I don't see many references to how he's innovated in this field? What has he actually achieved in the realm of AI, apart from co-opting the term Singularity from Vernor Vinge?
If someone could harness the angular momentum produced by the 60 Minutes spin department, we could do away with fossil fuels tomorrow.
"In response to the letter, a 60 Minutes spokesman said in an email: “While we respect Mr. Khosla’s view, we are not in agreement with the points he makes about our story, which we began and ended with him and devoted much of to his ideas and to one of the companies he backs.”"
If the NSA is willing to spout easily refuted BS like "We prevented China from destroying thousands of computers with malware" as part of their media response to Snowden's disclosures, I'm pretty sure they'd be happily advertising any terrorism they'd thwarted. I'm actually surprised they aren't just making shit up to win hearts and minds, but I guess they still don't know just what info Snowden handed over, so that could blow up in their faces.
I'm one of the "suckers" that bought an ASIC miner. I've already cashed up enough BTC to cover the costs of the miner. I'm keeping the rest I earn as a long term speculative investment. As the next wave of more efficient miners hit the market my miner will probably be useless, but I still got something for nothing, and potentially it could end up being a lot of something.
That's basically what the summery said " But there are reasons to believe that cancer will remain much more resistant because it is not so much a disease as a phenomenon"
Intellectual elitism at it's finest - bravo, asshole. Not everyone has the same opportunities, drive, abilities or circumstances. What's wrong with a living wage, would you rather have them drawing a benefit to support their families? Maybe they shouldn't be allowed to have children?
That was a rhetorical question, I know. But judging by the comments on the Glasshole's Facebook page, you're right believing you're in the majority. His FB page is generating an amusing amount of hate.
Try a Google image search for infected scrape, then see how blasé you feel about a future with no effective antibiotics. Hasn't happened to you in 30 years? That's a pretty small sample size to base your (ignorant) opinion on.

Don't believe the hype.
Sounds like you're saying you were a coder before being a coder was cool. Typical hipster attitude...
You can also take a mold from a prototype 'plug", rather than CNCing a mold.
This is pretty much how DayZ sprang to life. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
I guess my definition of AI has been narrow because I haven't considered narrow AI :-)

Wow, that bad?

Application whitelisting, OS patching, application patching and user education are also great at stopping malware.

How then is this insightful?

My rock might be useless at keeping tigers away but it's useful for throwing at glass houses.
Metaphor unclear - please elaborate using cars as basis of explanation.

Merry christmas, fuckhead >:-/
Who the fuck made you read this article? No-one? STFU then.
Isn't 2 & 3 what happened last week, but BTC recovered in a few days?
Why "should"? Just because someone was a canny investor, you want them to fail? What's the ethical problem?
The problem described in the article is that ASICs are not ideal at solving scrypt.
ASIC Bitcoin miners can't solve scrypt at all - you can't mine Litecoin with them. I guess you could call that "not ideal".
I dunno - AV-Test gave MSSE a "Must try harder" on it's last report card. http://www.av-test.org/en/tests/home-user/windows-7/mayjun-2013/
What about coveting my neighbours wife's ass?
My ex brother-in-law said after their divorce, "I think I might be autistic". My sister replied, "No, you're just an asshole".
