  1. Re:The Future on Kevin Smith set for Clerks sequel · · Score: 1, Informative

    LMAO -> Krog & JayAndSilentBob PS: why Krog's and JayAndSilentBob's posts are modded 0 and 1 ?? watch the movies, then mod them +5 funny ;-)

  2. would 50 laws of ethical AI solve the problem? on New Robots and the Ten Ethical Laws Of Robotics · · Score: 0

    ethical AI...the problem is way too complicated to be contained within 3, 10 or 101 directives. And if it is ever solved, it cannot be patented. His patent "Inductive Inference Affective Language Analyzer Simulating Artificial Intelligence" ... err... simulating artificial inteligence?? lol I thought that was the other way around. He says that the robot should have allowed and dissallowed ideals. But some of his allowed ones can actually produce quite unpredictable behaviours. some of his good virtues that can turn bad: "desire" -> desire for independence from humans? "liberty"-> see above "worry/concern" -> for his future? We don't even know how to represent feelings with AI, let alone control them. LaMuth is obviously no scientist, nor an AI expert, nor has he contributed anything to the field. Judging by his website, he's just another fool trying to make a quick buck out of nothing.

  3. Not bad at all on Mozilla UI Spoofing Vulnerability · · Score: 1

    XUL is UI made easy. Someone can spoof an interface, so for that reason alone we should scrap this technology?? Disabling the browser from running XUL?? That's disabling web services. Warning the user?? XUL in itself is not dangerous. It just renders UI. Maybe a better solution would be to prevent websites from reading/using user prefs/skins. and btw, what do you people think XAML (MS-XUL) is all about? a browser based on XUL can be spoofed? Wait for longhorn...a whole operating system based on XAML ;-)

  4. Re:Sure Java might be faster on Java Faster Than C++? · · Score: 1

    that is correct. from the GCC docs: Optimize even more. GCC performs nearly all supported optimizations that do not involve a space-speed[VStrider: read space to speed] tradeoff. The compiler does not perform loop unrolling or function inlining when you specify -O2. As compared to -O, this option increases both compilation time and the performance of the generated code. So...no loop unrolling, no inlining -> no speed optimizations. He didn't use the correct flags for speed optimising, and i think he knew that. His article is at best, misleading. VStrider.
