Yes, but where will climate change cause flooding, where will it cause draught, how much water can utilities, dams and shippers expect, how tall does this seawall need to be, and where will the best places be to build are all very important questions. Regardless of global warming being caused by man or not, better predictive models help humans plan.
Ironically as a white person the only time I've ever been called racist is by white right wingers calling me racist for saying things like "Statistically black students of equal academic achievement are accepted to college at lower rates. So it makes sense to attempt to compensate for that bias with affirmative action."
Because safes were perfectly secure? Privacy and anonymity are recent cultural developments along with urbanization. Prior to urbanization the entire local government knew you by name, they didn't need any fancy face recognition database. And everybody in town knew your address, your interests, your religion, all of it.
The new plant life in the headline is from Global Warming melting ice. So you have to acknowledge AGW exists if you recognize that an area "twice the size of the US" has melted.
Also if you had RTFA you would have noted that the world can warm without increasing CO2. The plants themselves absorb heat unlike snow and the melting tundra also releases methane, a greenhouse gas substantially more effective at retaining heat than even CO2.
This is only a source of a short term blip on one specific statistic.
We need a Slashdot Bot which just responds to the word "entrapment" in a post and corrects the author.
You can honey pot legally The police can even sell you drugs and arrest you. It's not entrapment unless you can prove that they convinced you to do something that you wouldn't have done except because of their coercion. You could setup a pot stand on the street titled "weed sold here" and arrest you when you came up and tried to buy weed. The test is whether a normal law abiding citizen have been persuaded to commit the crime.
And none of that matters because you're talking about a *private company* supposedly entrapping people. It's perfectly legal to post copyrighted works online if you own the copyright without a password. It's even legal for a torrent to download it. What isn't legal is to then upload it to someone else. Leeching is legal. Sharing copyrighted works isn't.
I can post all of my photos online and you can't start printing copies of them just because I didn't put them behind a paywall.
I'm 50/50 split on this point. Their patent actually cites light cancelling as one of the features of the lightfield display chip that they use. *But* I can't tell if it's bullshit or not since as you say all of the demos appear to be purely additive. It's theoretically possible that they're able to build a lightfield that shunts incoming vectors if they do have a true lightfield manipulation device but... I've got my doubts.
Jesus, you can make anything sound suspicious if you spin it like that. How about this interaction.
Ex-Employee: "I'm applying for a job, would you please provide a statement for my new employer." Ex-Employer: "Here you go: 'Bob was a senior sales manager from June of 2013 to September of 2016. Bob led our sales team and was responsible for approximately $3 million in sales." Ex-Employee: "Actually it was $5m in sales, would you be willing to confirm and update?" Ex-Empoyer: "You were correct, I looked it up, it was $5m. Attached is an updated statement"
This is so common place that it's absurd to consider this a leak. That's the problem with the "wikileaks" brand. They release my chocolate chip cookie recipe and suddenly it becomes "why is he only using 1/3rd of a cup of flower... is he trying to sabotage US wheat producers?!?"
The question though is "everyone" that you refer to an academic or niche machine learning user aka not the "Mainstream".
If you said "All of the CDC statisticians I know use linux" that doesn't logically follow that "Linux is mainstream".
The implied argument is that existing machine learning is only being used by a select few, while Microsoft hopes to expand the market vastly beyond the current user set. Everyone could be using a Mainframe... and yet Apple could still mainstream computer usage with the release of the Apple II.
I'm incredibly technically savvy and do a lot of development and design but I've never written code hat used a machine learning algorithm except for through Microsoft's hosted cognitive services once just to play with it.
A voting booth doesn't guarantee deniability either, cameras are small and there is no security. Furthermore you can fill out a ballot, photograph it and change your votes and sign that you made the changes. They explain on the ballot how to change a vote.
I mean ignoring the easy ability to manipulate a photo, or change your vote and then sign next to the vote "Changed my mind". A law against selfies does nothing to prevent someone from doing it discreetly. It's not like you go through a metal detector or are waved for bugs.
Prosecute vote buyers and sellers. Not the technology which enables it. If someone even offers to buy your vote they would face tens of thousands of dollars in fines plus jail time. It's not worth the risk, someone will blab.
If you blackmail someone into doing it and then prove it... I guarantee that person will find a way.
My aunt went on a long rant about how much slower her ipad ran after Windows 10 updated. To be clear... she is actually talking about her Apple iPad. But everything wrong in the world, including her slow iPad is because of the windows 10 update.
I agree with your sentiment, it's almost certainly a wifi issue. Because Wifi sucks... a lot. I developed a wireless device that delivered wifi video to devices and it was a huge pain in the ass. You just had to accept that reliability and range would be shit, especially in a busy environment. How many times has Steve Jobs chastised the audience that they wouldn't get to see a demo if they didn't turn off their wifi?
I want this at my office too. Sometimes we need to upload a 15GB file to the cloud for a client and we only have 20mbps up. If we could spend $2 to uncap to the full 100/100 symmetrical for $2 we would definitely do that. Even if we did it once a day for 30 minutes that would be $60/mo instead if the $200 extra a month symmetrical 100 up would cost.
I always thought it ridiculous on sci-fi shows like Star Trek (yes, I know it's fiction), that such an advanced ship would require such a huge crew when the computer was so advanced and could probably fly the ship better by itself. Now I understand why they had such a big crew... busywork to keep more people employed and artificially deflate the unemployment figures.
And yet in most episodes almost none of the crew does anything useful. So I think it's more like the Marines/Navy. The Navy provides the ship and can run the ship with a small crew but it's all of the other jobs that are just there "for the ride". Whenever we're introduced to new crew members it's always like "Astrobiologist". Aka, they do nothing on the ship itself they just go to a planet and then start working.
You can do that in cmd or PowerShell too but I'm talking about a real windowed application with a binary and everything. Cmake doesn't technically ship with Linux although many do include it.
Python takes 30 seconds to install. Getting a hello world desktop app out of Visual Studio Community Edition is super easy. I would argue it's as easy or easier than ever.
Hillary also admitted she has a "public policy" and "private policy",
Yes and she's 100% right. It's impossible to find a diplomatic compromise if you can't sit down out of the public eye and hash out your differences without having to worry about your exact language. You can't negotiate any kind of deal in a public sphere. People will be looking over their shoulder unable to speak freely and nothing will get done. A lot of politics recently has been everybody covering their ass from their base and therefore unwilling to sit down and find real solutions. Read the actual quote everybody not just some headline which was literally written by a staffer in the context of "This is how our opponents would twist this."
You just have to sort of figure out how to -- getting back to that word, "balance" -- how to balance the public and the private efforts that are necessary to be successful, politically, and that's not just a comment about today. That, I think, has probably been true for all of our history, and if you saw the Spielberg movie, Lincoln, and how he was maneuvering and working to get the 13th Amendment passed, and he called one of my favorite predecessors, Secretary Seward, who had been the governor and senator from New York, ran against Lincoln for president, and he told Seward, I need your help to get this done. And Seward called some of his lobbyist friends who knew how to make a deal, and they just kept going at it. I mean, politics is like sausage being made. It is unsavory, and it always has been that way, but we usually end up where we need to be. But if everybody's watching, you know, all of the back room discussions and the deals, you know, then people get a little nervous, to say the least. So, you need both a public and a private position. And finally, I think -- I believe in evidence-based decision making. I want to know what the facts are. I mean, it's like when you guys go into some kind of a deal, you know, are you going to do that development or not, are you going to do that renovation or not, you know, you look at the numbers. You try to figure out what's going to work and what's not going to work.
She wants unfettered world trade with open borders
Yeah she has a dream of free trade in the western hemisphere. I do too. It sounds like a nice dream. It's a good goal to work towards where we have and sustainable energy. We don't need border regulation and everybody is happy and rich. Is that not a good dream for the future? You *WANT* the future to look like the present with a bunch of walled off states afraid of their own shadow?
âoeMy dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders, some time in the future with energy that is as green and sustainable as we can get it, powering growth and opportunity for every person in the hemisphere.â
Hillary admits that campaigns are expensive "I wish it weren't so but I don't know how to change it" and therefore she will need campaign contributions to win! What a calling admission.
And to also admit that maybe professionals who are experts in a field would be necessary to help regulate the industry! Next she is going to say that maybe a computer scientist or white hat hacker should help write cyber defense policy.
Actually Linus, there is a good excuse - when the failing of a logic assertion could silently lead to behavior that is worse than a kernel halt, specifically data corruption.
Which raises the obvious question: why are there still faults which can result in data corruption? What's the excuse for there being a scenario where recovery would require data to be corrupted instead of at worst lost--which is the alternative to a kernel suicide.

such roofs need to be able to sustain pre-tornado weather (including hail) at least a few times a year. (to be reliable)

. Ohh how about a minor heating element that can be turned on in the winter to help de-ice/snow roofs.

If people don't know you're a battleground your interests won't be paid any attention to.
Surprise victories aren't helpful if it doesn't influence platform.
The electoral college is there for a reason and serves a purpose.
Yes, to ensure slave owning states can count 3/5ths of a slave towards their vote.
I got my C.H.I.P like 6 months ago.

who or what will be liable for breeches in security?
Wouldn't it just be the bank who wrote the app? Seems obvious/simple. If the paypal app results in a loss of cash you blame paypal who wrote the app.

Still trying to figure out why my PC needs an alarm clock or camera app..
You need a camera app because other apps can call on the camera app. So it's almost a library as much as an app.
Similarly if you uninstall alarm and you use Cortana to "set an alarm" she would error out.
The apps that you can uninstall are generally now apps that aren't required by Cortana/Windows to perform an action.
