The civilian population didn't vote for hitler, he seized power and become a self appointed dictator. In today's terms it would be the equivalent of leveraging a trillion dollar debt on the Iraqi people for the cost of taking out Sadaam.
Greece is fundamentally broken from the top down and it has nothing to do with the banks (though yes banks are evil and corrupt too), it has something like half the working population employed by the government, a culture or Tax avoidance and systemic corruption. Unless you fix those problems Greece will always be a sink, no matter how much you pour into the economy it will need more.
perhaps you may actually want to read some history. He wasn't elected, hitler was appointed after the elected head of state died, he then abolished the office and established himself as a dictator, hitler never won an election.
At this point in time I think it is at best a 50-50 chance of Greece staying in the EU. The EU is more about an economic powerhouse rather than a military one and Greece at the moment is a shit stain in their underpants, I won't be surprised if they wash themselves of Greece not only to get rid of the stink but to stand as a warning to others.
clearly that isn't exactly true, just look at the state china got into due to the British feeding opium into the Chinese market for a century. The level of drug addiction reached due to that open and free market brought the entire country to its kness with a nation of addicts.
Greece's financial problems can be solved if corruption and tax aversion is drastically reduced, which is part of the program Alexis Tsipras promotes. That is why the Troika only gives money if reforms are made and I think they know it is the key for Greece to become financially independent again.
10 or maybe even 5 years ago fixing tax evasion and corruption may have solved their problems, it was the core rot that created the mess, now though it has decayed their economy to a point where fixing that will not be sufficient, they either need massive growth or austerity measures + financial assistance. However when you need as much financial assistance as Greece then you are not in a good position to dictate terms. I am stunned they haven't found a way to eject them from the EU already and just let them sink or swim on their own.
In the end the truth actually hurts the public self interests more
Said every corrupt dictator ever. You somehow think you're qualified to judge what "truth" the public can handle?
No I am not, hence why I said they should get the truth. But the fact remains the truth is probably going to damage there freedom more than support it. People really are stupid and while everyone should be informed, you are delusional if you think that them being informed will make for a better rather than a worse situation.
You don't have to keep truth from them. There is a massive difference between hiding the facts and simply not publically showing the videos. In the end the truth actually hurts the public self interests more, just watch as this is used as a reason more even more strict and invasive laws all with the support of the public because they are scared they might get burned alive too.
People are stupid. giving them all the facts in glorious detail only ever creates irrational fear and makes it easier for the government to bring in ridiculous anti terror laws while at the same time giving the evil doers everything they wanted. You really think they give a shit that people will see them as degenerate? They want fear and to express there dominance that they can do whatever they want, which by airing it everywhere they are granted. There really is no good solution here though I would err on the side of not showing it just too spite the perpetrators.
If you apply handcuffs to someone you can't then claim they are free. you say freedom is a matter of self control, this is true, UNLESS you are under the GPL where freedom is dictated to you under strict terms.
It is more resentment as BSD is "actually" open as opposed to the handcuffed license he wants to impose on people. Will take BSD style licensing any day of the week over proprietary or GPL
A long time ago I used to work in the field of AI (Expert systems and Neural nets). IT frustrates and pisses me off no end how frequently press and even a lot of IT people fail to understand what is essentially a straight forward test and then complain about it being inadequate for modern computing. No computer has passed it, not even close. The test REQUIRES, a human and a computer, The test REQUIRES the expert to be aware that one is human and the other a computer. The test REQUIRES that they then get to interrogate both to try to discover which is which (not ask one question, not read a piece of text generated and then try and guess, they get to question them for considerable time). The test REQUIRES this to be done many times to get a statistically significant sampling with differing test subjects. The test is as relevant today as it was when it was devised.
please stop with the hothardware reviews. Or at least go find a better site with up to date stuff. hell even the wall street journal reviewed Dell Venue a month before hothardware everyone else reviewed these 2 months ago.
Whom do I trust? I trust me and only me. any data I value doesn't leave my possession and if stored online is encrypted using a method of my choosing. the data I do store in cloud providers is only data I don't care if someone else manages to get ahold of.
That makes you no better than members of ISIS, in fact it probably makes you worse as you have been brought up in an environment that is supposed to teach you better. Attitudes like yours are what allow groups like Al Quada and ISIS to not only exist but flourish and grow.
From Turing's "Computing Machinery and Intelligence":
"I believe that in about fifty years' time it will be possible, to programme computers, with a storage capacity of about 10^9, to make them play the imitation game so well that an average interrogator will not have more than 70 per cent chance of making the right identification after five minutes of questioning."
So if fewer than 70 percent of the journals rejected it, it would still pass by Turing's criterion.
10/10 for looking up Turing. 0/10 for your understanding of what was written. Hint the key word in that paragraph is interrogator
sorry but that is bullshit. Turing test is all about interaction Not generating text and seeing if someone reading it can tell whether it was human or computer generated, that isn't even closely related to what the turing test was about.
This has nothing to do with turing or the turing test. The turing test involves a conversation with a computer and the person having the conversation not being able to distinguish if it is a computer or human they are conversing with. Last time I checked you don't converse with a poem... unless you are in a nice tight jacket and a small padded room.
Actually part of the evidence was that he stated he was building a website intended for buying and selling drugs. it was specifically built with the trade of illegal goods in mind not as an open marketplace.
Seriously we measure success of a company and CEO by Revenue per employee now? So if I make a million dollars revenue per employee I am massively successful even if I am making a loss? This study is so bad it is just plain embarrassment, I am surprised she was willing to make it public.

that is probably true, but even so it is a very sad indictment on American society.

I have 3 spate banks, NONE use email verification for passwords. it is unsecure and moronic, you need a new bank.
I pay $8 a month for Netflix with no ads. a streaming service could easily have a massive library and be quite affordable while staying profitable.

because if I have access to your e-mail I can reset the passwords of all of your other online accounts, including your bank account.
If your bank accounts is using your email as a primary source of online identity then it is time you found a new bank.
