  1. Ignoring instruction sets entirely. on Economists Say Newest AI Technology Destroys More Jobs Than It Creates · · Score: 1

    "with machines now able to learn, not just follow programmed instructions,"

    How the fuck do you think they learn? Through those programmed instructions we allocate to it which allows it to do so.

    What a load of nonsense this article puts out.

  5. Re:Joke? They're real! on The Joker Behind the Signetics 25120 Write-Only Memory Chip Hoax · · Score: 0

    I think you failed basic semiconductor electronics. ROMs are lithographically etched with the code hard-wired in the design. Back then, the only way to erase was to expose the semiconductor ROM chip to UV light to destroy the chip. That's why they came with clear windows with a sticker over them. Remove sticker, zap with UV for a few seconds, dead ROM.

    On a CD cover, same fucking way we did it in the 80s and 90s. Open the fucking thing up. It's at minimum a folded insert, and there's enough room tehre to break down a quarter easily.

    And yea, you needed to deal with a whole ounce because back then weed was garbage. I've got some of those original genetics in seed form thanks to a bunch of old heads. WEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAK.

    Same reason he exaggerated the script for the most recent Indiana Jones movie? Get those seats filled in theaters.

    You're missing out on internet culture. Weeaboo applies to both white lovers of Japanese culture as much as it does to the Japanese, themselves.

    Thanks for giving me a reason to contact DICE and subpoena them for your information. IP + time made + verification of who owned that IP at that time = defamation and libel lawsuit instant win.

    Good, we need more hate because we certainly need less life on this planet. Let's start with politicians and lawyers, first.

    The destruction of an important cultural, ecological, and archaeological site is nothing but a stunt, eh?

    "Firstly - The "flu vaccine" is not meant to be an across the board vaccine for all flu strains - there are simply too many for that to be viable."

    You assume I didn't know that. You assume incorrectly. I knew about that from BASIC HIGH SCHOOL starting almost.. twenty years ago, child.

    "Second - your immune system isn't a muscle,"

    You fail at recognizing analogies. You obviously haven't graduated from high school, yet.

    Try again when your knowledge and reading capabilities are on par with mine.

    You didn't bother reading the rest of the article, did you? It goes right on to cover how this affects OUTSIDE sites using Yahoo's Advertising CDN.

    "You need to be vaccinated!"

    Yep, which is why the current anti-flu shot is TOTALLY FUCKING USELESS because the influenza virus mutated and made it completely fucking ineffective.

    Go ahead, keep giving your immune system that shitty exercise that only puts on 'water weight.'

    Mean while, I got that mutated flu, and was done with it in two days. My immune system got exercise and a protein diet, and has REAL MUSCLE to show.

    " What can people do to curb this problem?"

    Band together and slaughter the police. Peaceful examples have been proven time and time again to be laughably ineffective.

    Just start wiping them out wholesale the same way they're doing it to us. It's only fair.

    "Maybe people will start taking real responsibility for their sites and content. Passing the buck is lazy and irresponsible, especially in the case of advertising CDNs (and the subsequent malware infestations that spread as a result of them.)"

    That isn't an Apple-only problem. I get the same crap with Linux or Windows.

    And in Windows, sometimes it just liks to randomly switch resolutions on you because one monitor 'disappeared' for a brief second (thanks to some 'power-saving' feature I'd wager) and now you're stuck having to reset all your windows.

    Ah well. One day, maybe people will learn.
