Let's face it: our military is conservative welfare. If you live in a small town or rural area, the only job opportunity for many young men is the military.
which "used only video cameras, computers and basic digital maps."
It didn't use lasers? Sometimes a big "spot" in the road is merely discoloration, spilled paint, or a reflection. Such could easily fool camera-driven AI to slam on the breaks, risking a rear-end collision. Lasers can verify such a spot is "flat" in a more direct manner.
I've had close calls myself over mistaken identity because reflections etc. confused (human) stereo vision, being one eye may catch a reflection that the other eye doesn't, and the brain thus misaligns the pair of images, or at least gets an ambiguous result, which should result in breaking until "solved".
It's possible that "camera-only" AI is good enough 99.9% of the time, but I'd prefer lasers to double-check, because 99.9% is not good enough with cars.
It's kind of comparable to, "I eat bacon 3 times day, and don't have health problems; therefore bacon is safe."
A savvy engineer would indeed make up BS and buzzwords to explain it rather than confess they don't understand the theory behind it. I'm not condoning such spin, but I've seen similar games advance others' careers.
You: "It stimulates the anti-energy in the transfiguration nodes of the flux capacitor, exciting the isotope-free leptons enough to jump back and forth between the adjacent quantum substrate layers to transfer bits of data on a micro-timed cycle."
PHB: "Excellent! As long as it works and makes me richer, good job!"
It appears Roger Shawyer pulled something like this to get investor cash with his em-drive.
We used to have MAD: Mutually Assured Destruction to each scare the other side into not starting a war. Now we have Mutually Assured Hacking, which means nobody will know what shit will actually work. Maybe we should keep some pre-digital weapons around in case.
I agree, this seems straight from the Captain Obvious Research Labs: if you don't get enough sleep, you make poor decisions.
Don't get me wrong, it's good to verify obvious or likely outcomes, but perhaps such results are not newsworthy. A more extreme example: "Sleep-deprived people are more likely to have romance with non-mammals." (Then again, such a study itself may make news regardless of the results.)
Yep, they are BOTH jerks for doing such. Microsoft probably cannot publicly complain about it because their hypocrisy would be readily pointed out. It's kind of like Trump making fun of Kim J.U.'s hair.
I suggest "SOL", since it probably won't get properly funded in the longer run, and/or be so abused by trolls & hackers as to be nearly useless... kind of like Slashdot:-)
I don't get the Soros complaint angle. So plutocrats with deep pockets to spend on political causes are bad? Wouldn't that make Koch's bad? Or are you cherry-picking your plutocrats?
GE's growth was lackluster under Welch compared to similar organizations, and arguably the pressure he put on managers caused many to cut legal and safety corners because a say 50% chance of getting fired was worse to them than a 20% of being outed by the legal system or the press.

It's capitalism in action: if Instagram gets a reputation for not being eating-disorder-friendly, it may end up on ban lists published by eating-disorder organizations, and lose customers.
Global hydrogen loss is Fake News, believe me! CNN runs that #HubbleRustBucket, and it still found NO credible evidence of Orion collusion. They can stick it in their black-hole. Maybe they'll find Hillary's emails in the hole, ya think? The planet's hydrogen is doing the best ever, setting all kinds of records. Make Gas Great Again!
But if half the workers in your buildings are "temps" (per article stat), then they are probably doing something similar to what MS did: hire temps to do employee-ish things without having to provide them employee obligations.
Do you know any stats of the average stay of a Google temp?

Both countries are making the same mistake. Military one-upmanship is a wanker size contest driven by the male ego.

If they were that powerful, that email server would mysteriously disappear.

Your life? To be frank, we don't care much about your personal preferences any more than you care about ours.

Nope, SkyNet is a UK company.

He's been mixing trade, military, law, and personal business ever since he got into office. And you wonder why the turnover is so high.

Microsoft got into hot water for abusing temps years ago. Apparently they didn't punish Microsoft hard enough to send a message to other similar orgs.
