Sorry but eveything you write about Pascal is wrong. But I'm to lazy to correct it, you can read wikipedia. You clearly never used it, so why write that bullshit?
Pascal, especially as UCSD P-System was for decades the most widely used 'OS' and programming language on the planet.
When we talk about global warming we talk not about million year old periods of different (warmer or colder) temperatures. For most of that periods we have a very good idea why the temperature was different.
We talk about artificial man made global warming which happened the last 100 - 200 years, which is 100% caused by CO2 emissions which are 100% caused by mankind burning fossile fuels.
Just so you know, not even the most ardent, militant, angry anthropogenic global warming evangelist claims that 100% of global warming is caused by humans. Nevertheless every one interested in the field knows that it is the case, so what is your point?
No, it does not depend on my definition of intelligence.
It depends on the definition of the term "artificial intelligence".
"the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills.", which would apply to driving a car in traffic. No it would not, a self driving car is not acquiring knowledge, and if it is "applying" knowledge is also very questionable, because if you consider "data" as knowledge then nearly everything is an AI.
A driverless car is not an AI. There are only very few very weak pieces in it that come from the 'weak AI' research topics like pattern recognition and route planning. There is no artificial mind in the center of the 'cars computer' thinking: 'I have to drive safe!' Or evil thinking: 'will they "kill me" if I deliberatly drive over this ugly fagg'?
The EU already is 'robotized' since decades. And unlike idiots in the USA no one is replacing a burger turner with a robot, or a waitress with a robot (automated food delievery system). No one would go into a restaurant where everything is automated. Then you can simply take some frozen food from your fridge an put it ino ta micro wave. There is no 'robots will take all over fear' in the EU, and no, we would not tax a company extra for using a robot. We tax companies on profit, and bottom line we tax owners/shareholders on shed out profit. Robots are no discussion thema at all in Europe. Basically everything that can be automated is so since decades...
The problem is education, not robots (in the US as well as in the EU). On the other hand, the EU will sooner or later shift to UBI anway, problem solved, facepalm.
The point is that a forrest does not remove CO2 from the atmosphere makes it a not sink. I suggest next time you take a bath, you live in a civilized country and habe a bath, yes? You look what happens if you pull the plug: wow, all water goes down the sink.
A heat sink in your PC is not a heat sink, it is a radiator. It is just misnamed heat sink.
They are a balanced cycle after they're done growing with a net minus to extant gaseous carbon due merely to their existence. No, there is no 'net minus' as we explained you now several times.
Millions of years ago, there was a net minus because the microbes that now eat dead wood did not exist at that time and the dead would was slowly covert with dirt or sucked down by tectonic movements.
Again: 1) if we burn all wood right mow, the difference in the CO2 level in the atmosphere would be hard to measure. The amount of millions of years of growth of 'coal' simply would dwarf it 2) if we plamt new trees, as much as you want, that effect would be even less!
We have to stop producing CO2 and perhaps even need a way to get some part out of the atmosphere again... but trees would change NOTHING (regarding CO2).
Global warming is practically caused 100% by burning fossile fuels. No idea why you want/need/demand a precise percentage. IF YOU NEED IT, FOR FUCK SAKE GOOGLE IT YOURSELF.
Again, what is so difficult to grasp that a flooded area, that produces CH4 is just a temporarily effect? It does not matter!
Mo you did mot read up about CH4 otherwise you would know that.
And who cares about the amount of square miles of water are? Except fish and sea eagles, or ducks? Are you are scared by big numbers or what? 30,000 square miles is 170x170 miles WTF... Los Angeles is bigger!
Doesn't change the fact that everyone says AC and BC. I really doubt you (yes, you as a person) say in real life CE... but perhaps you are one of the few non 'english historians' who uses out of political correctness or SJW syndrome 'CE'. On the other hand I got already flamed for using the term BC on/.... rofl.
Regarding your argument about Christus, well, I would really wonder if he has not lived. But using his 'narrowed' down time of birth for a new calendar and then calling it 'common era'... erm, I really wonder what the bigger insult is to non Christians. The fact that you use his birth as starting date or that you call that date 'common'?
Most countries that have a different calendar btw. have no problem using their own and the 'internet calender' and probably a thrd one as in reign of the King or Emporer simultaniously.
Depends what you want to ask, and if you know what 'expression' means.
Point is: no, the question if a bene is regressive or dominat (outdated terms btw, as both twrms are wrong) is irrelevant for 'heritage'. You simply inherit both and the 'more dominant' is 'more epxressed'. The recessive one is not lost in any way.
it's not true that darker haired/eyed people have higher birth rates than those of Nordic complexion? Only if you want to be pedantic. But as most nordics breed amoung themselves and most 'browns' breed amoun themselves... it had no effect on the genepool. You can only argue that the 'browns' still increase in population and the nordic are stagnant. So the percentage of blond or raid looking at the world wide population is becomming less.
Who would care about that?
Except to the extent that population bottlenecks have a larger chance of wiping out the rarer-gene. If the owners of that gene don't 'breed' succesfully... if they do: no.
There is no dwindling population of red hairs etc. That is an idiotic claim from popular science magazines that don't understand how genetics works.
BTW: if you want to know how Aryans really look, I guess you can google that. Aryans as a "tribe" come from the central Perisan areas, our days Iran, the word Iran actually is a simplification of Aryan. Aryans are black haired but surprisingly with a very high percentage of blue eyed people.
In other words: the Nazi myth about Aryans is even more retarded when you realize that the nordic and germans/teutons are not Aryans.
horrors of there being more blond people in the world, oh noes! Actually for me and plenty of people I know "blonde" is the least desired colour for hair.
The myth about blonds came up in african, south european, asian countries when Rome tried to conquer Germania.
I personally prefer any other hair colour over blond, probably red being my favourite. And as a side not: no, blondes usually don't have blond pubic hair but brown or even dark brown like everyone else who is not a black haired.
I fear and suspect the western world will end up intentionally abandoning this technological revolution, leaving it up to another power (perhaps the Russians or Chinese) to lead the way Does not matter. CRISPER is already so cheap that you can assume a modification will cost like $5 in 50 years.
I must say, though, it'll be pretty amusing if the Chinese get there first To Mars or Moon, probably:D
just how ridiculous those "oh no, too many Nordic-looking people!" arguments are. Of course they are. Some asians like europeans/nordic people. Plenty don't! And nordic people or europeans don't travel to Asia to meet nordic looking asian girls... well, most not even travel there to meet nordic looking european girls:D
I like asian girls with funny hair colours, but blonde does not suit them (it does not even suit most Italian, Spanish or Greek girls, just as an example)
No, my experience ends around 2007 or so, but I did not write such absurd amounts of lines of code after 1999, as I did before. But that did not stop me to do some embedded projects, mainly as tester or build engineer in the recent years.
The language and the libraries changed considerably, the language less though. I like that more went into the libraries as concurrency but compared with Java C++ still lacks a standard GUI library.
I think Java "won over" only because of its cross platform networking, multithreading and GUI libraries.
What is in your opinion the most important change in C++ since, lets say 2010?
Well, if I get your name as a reference correctly, you should know better. Near earth space is full with junk, and that is a problem since decades. Of course it is not floating around at the same place... that would be no problem. It is orbiting with extrmely high speeds at 'arbitrary' orbits intersecting with new objects we want to put up there. The chances to encaunter one is actually pretty high, not small.
There are no third world or fourth world countries anymore since decades. There are only countries like Somalia where War Lords rule and make the life miserabel or third world like.
In america! Not in the rest of the world. It makes no sense to give a certain point in time a different name depending if you refer to it 'before' or 'after'. Evereyone, except americans, is saying before _christ_ and after _christ_. That means we say AD or AC and BC. The american nomenclature is just confusing:)
You want to tell me your friends are "so poor" they can afford $5 uber driver but not a $6 taxi? Perhaps they should drink one $5 beer less before calling for 5cents a taxi or uber driver, facepalm.
I never heared that 'poverty', real or percieved, is a reason to chose uber over a cab/taxi.

A script can be as AI as a compiled binary. There is no difference.
