But sniffing thousands of samples in which only a handful may be cancerous is challenging work with little positive reinforcement. Moreover, it takes time and energy to train these pups, who, despite extensive preparation, still might miss a diagnosis if they're having a bad day, experts told Live Science.
How about including this truth?
If dogs became mainstream at detecting cancers, there would be immediate palpable disruption to the present status quo. Schools that train doctors, radiologists and the whole associated ecosystem would be in peril.
Who in this industry, would support such a move? I do not see any.
Having lived in some of these communities, I believe that some of them need a strong man. Without such a leader, society breaks down. These folks simply do not think like the typical westerner.
While western politicians may "steal" and voters simply vote them out, politicians in these communities cause chaos.
Sometimes, we in the west foment war/mayhem with bribes too. Just look at what is happening in the Mid East...
Europe's already seeing a significant decrease in its standard of living. It will only get worse. At this point there may be no salvaging Europe. It will become a third-world hellhole much like the terrible places in Africa and the Middle East where these unskilled, uneducated, unproductive arrivals came from.
Governments are more interested in the "next generation," not today's immigrants. Canada has been successful to a degree. I am sure this is what they (the governments), are looking at.
European countries can help themselves by putting measures in place that discourage "white flight" .
And better still, they should discourage powerful countries (read the USA) from fomenting chaos in distant lands.
Remember that the Syrian refugees are in Europe because some powerful country decided that it was better to bomb a leader they did not support. The refugees then fled into the "welcoming hands" of some German leader.
The AP identified journalists as the third-largest group on a hacking hit list obtained from cybersecurity firm Secureworks, after diplomatic personnel and U.S. Democrats. About 50 of the journalists worked at The New York Times. Another 50 were either foreign correspondents based in Moscow or Russian reporters like Lobkov who worked for independent news outlets. Others were prominent media figures in Ukraine, Moldova, the Baltics or Washington.
Can someone answer this question:
How many has the CIA hacked so far?
Remember, this very alleged action could be the work of the CIA. They have "impersonated" nation states before.
The main question is why: why in the world would you want to wear your computer?
To feel cool!
Otherwise why would seemingly sensible folk spend north of US$1,000 on an item that will be obsolete in less than a year, is very delicate and is mainly used to communicate [un]important staff (read gossip)?
Some have been seen camping out in the rain/cold etc...
"This includes, but isn't limited to, sites that misrepresent or conceal their country of origin or are directed at users in another country under false premises." A popular tactic for misinformation campaigns is to pose as a credible U.S. news outlet.
How about 'home grown" internet sites that actually manufacture fake news? One such site was mentioned by our president recently.
Now, to be fair, listen to this clip at the 1:38 mark.
Then you wonder why the ordinary folk fee the way they do, about our media.
because everyone has already downloaded the others?
No, because after getting installed, this particular app is less stable, which then requires users to re-install the subject app. This is reflected in the high download figures.
I am just wondering what may have happened to Google.
Did Google deteriorate or Facebook just became better?
Disclaimer: I post this message with a bias. I have come to hate Google of late; especially when it comes to product/feature execution on Android. I still use their products daily, though.

It's good because folks get to watch shows/movies on the cheap...bad if you ask the movie studios or the likes of ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox etc...etc
As hotels get squeezed by Airbnb and home rental sites, they have begun complaining that OTAs are eating into their profits.
Let me ask:
In America, is eating into a competitor's profits a crime?

I ask because in my [limited] professional life, I know of exactly zero entities using this software.
Am I missing out on anything? Can someone more knowledgeable advise me of why I should use Thunderbird over Outlook or GMail?
Uber must be rejoicing over this "free advertising."
You see, when it comes to "ride sharing" all media talk about is "Uber," "Uber" and more "Uber."
It's as if the other more than 10 ride sharing companies/services just do not exist!
Do our neighbors to the north (read Canadians), have anything comparable?
I doubt!!

For these countries, they will have to rely on immigration which some of them are already doing.
I guess that in about 50 years, these countries' demographic makeup in terms of race will be very different.

I think it's a form of mental illness.
I guess it depends; but when your rival has about 5 times your market share, you do not matter that much...or do you?
Look, software will [always] have bugs. Apple's software is no different.
Has anyone investigated?
Maybe iOS users are using their devices wrong.
Perhaps the idea of "Fake News" is fake itself!

What do you do when you have more money than you can ever possibly spend?
I have always said to myself that if I ever got a lot of $$, I would start an effort to declare a major American city homeless free.
It's shameful that we have folks that are homeless in a country as rich as the USA.
It's even more shameful that so much cash is spent on [useless and unproductive] campaigns oversees, with no hope of ever stopping.
Let me add: I wouldn't mind getting some of those bitcoins either. I have major financial problems of mine.
Amazon confirmed Thursday that it will again sell the Apple TV set-top box and Google Chromecast dongle.
This rarely happens. Amazon execs must have felt an uncomfortable lump in their throat before electing to cut their losses.
Way to go Google...
FYI, the article didn't talk about "starving to death..."
Read this article.
It will perhaps educate you.
Almost 100 Million People a Year 'Forced To Choose Between Food and Healthcare'
The USA accounts for about 0.5m of those? Maybe?
Just guessing...
Americans currently ride up to the international space station in Russian capsules
I keep wondering why this is the case. Don't we have the technology to ferry folks to the ISS? I guess we do but why do we rely on the Russians?

I am looking for posters to mod down. Can't find any as many of these first posters are Anonymous Cowards!!

Let the war of words begin. I guess those in the Great White North (Canada) are out of luck!
And BTW, is this the same company so many praise for its unparalleled attention to detail?
Why have I had to restart all the smartphones I have possessed if I leave the basement (with them), and would like to use the GPS?
The GPS application always complains of no internet access, even when it's on. And these have been "brand name" devices.
