What makes you think that bot-nets are designed to just push out more spam? Encryption crack much? Because with the kind of horsepower the world's largest botnets have, they could be very effective for such a job.
Why would you harp on something he admits then try to belittle his position? If you're in a superior position than he describes, he isn't a threat to you, and if you're not then you have no room to say shit.
I'm assuming you got bullied much as a kid just as I was and feel a sense of satisfaction when the roles are reversed.
I hear the "McCain is too old" argument ONLY coming from mainstream media. I believe it has been thrown out there as a red herring, a non-issue to fill in for real issues to be discussed.
Seriously, I haven't seen anyone deeply concerned over the possibility this means for backdoors forced in by the government. Do you really trust the government to NOT do this when it is available to them? Thank god for linux...
It seems that AI as far as sincere intelligence isn't something that will arrive in discernible steps before it occurs, but merely observable retrospectively. What I mean is that "kinda AI" still isn't AI, and until a path proves to create a real AI, we won't know which ones are on the right track and which ones aren't.
You can easily ignore race and sex as a factor and still explain why minorities would go to Obama instead of Clinton. Obama hasn't been caught in blatant lies. Obama hasn't tried to change the rules in the middle of the game. Obama has a history of working with people in the inner city and is well aware of the problems they face. Injecting bigotry into this seems to be moreso a projection of your own psyche rather than a neutral analysis.
What happens when you cool helium to 1.6K? It becomes a superfluid. Inside of this continuous set of rules determining the behavior of matter there is a threshold, which when passed at a discrete value changes behavior radically. Or with a black hole, there is a discrete point at which there is enough mass together to create a unique (yeah I know, big universe so this word isn't exceptionally accurate) and awesome display that we understand to be a singularity.
Is it irrational to believe that there is such an equivalent threshold for the development of AI or nanotech in which it creates a positive feedback loop that radically alters the behavior of the universe around us?
In relativity, the faster you can move (compute), the slower time appears to be. If time is constantly decelerating in your perception you will have much more time to develop that "intelligence" of which you speak.
Seriously I'm personally excited by the fact that this essentially seems to offer a great draw to people with security skills to try being offensive where most of their efforts would be used defensively before.
All mammals seem to have some form of intercommunication it seems though by that measure, even if it is by scent or subtle body/tail movements. Is our only difference the specificity which our language can define our environment?
You're confusing complexity with poor engineering. Properly designed redundancy adds to complexity while only serving to increase reliability. If it doesn't, it is not the cause of the complexity, but a fault of the engineer himself.

The use of such extreme sophomoric speech in this context is often used in irony to mock those who use it seriously, thereby nullifying any real affect their stupidity may have on the rest of us. Please get off your high horse.:)
Ah, the vast population of US truckers. I forget how large of a group they are. Are you kidding me, of course there is going to be a niche demographic that has to benefit from something like this, but at large this is an unneeded service. My previous statement however I agree is with too broad of a brush and I retract it.
Do you honestly think these kinds of behaviors are stilted with little support of the population in the areas in which they operate? Although the populations of the middle east in general are not actively engaged in violence against the west, their sentiment is very hostile in general. Their anger and hostility existed BEFORE violence against the west began, we just ignored it. So now that they are a danger, instead of addressing the reasons for their hostility we are instead trying to address the symptoms of it which is extremist violence.
But your views on the world are empirically wrong if you think the US is an innocent victim of the events that have befallen it. I'm proud to uphold the ideals America espouses. However, you are sorely mistaken if you believe that America itself has been following these ideals. Simply view the imperialistic history of the US leading as far back as our involvement in the Spanish American war. Don't ignore the facts because of your pride, and the good things we've done despite these maladies do not excuse our behavior just as the reasons for terroristic behavior do not excuse their actions.

I wonder if it would be feasible to use the base upon which the turbines sit to put in place tidal generators as well.

Or you're just a whiny fucking bitch.
Then you should have no problem converting to K or C, whatever you prefer. :)

Seconded! We need to petition Nintendo to start a Nintendoland!

There is also no demand for this hardly. Seriously, satellite radio is such a waste of valuable resources.
