Oh, I can believe *them* just fine. But it's Artificial *Intelligence*. If everyone and every government agreed on a standard for machine "ethics", what makes anyone think they can characterize, identify, and head off "unethical" behavior in multiple computing systems that make their own determinations at roughly a high-frequency-trading time scale?
However, with the advent of quantum computing and the computing resources it collected during its cryptocurrency mining days, 'then' is kind of meaningless, as it all happened in parallel.
v1.0.1b spit back out the Perl programmers, since it was too much of a hassle to deal with context-sensitive grammars for the payoff in programmer count.

Between possibly increased corruption, police brutality, and all the crazy stuff you point out, we may end up getting both self-driving cars and ubiquitous dash cams. Heck, I bet insurance companies will want dashcams put in standard so they don't have to decipher telemetry (?) when deciding how to determine fault in a collision between two self-driving cars.
Insurance translates risk into dollars into quarterly financials.
Investors who don't understand computer security can ask what's being done to mitigate risk ("You have fire insurance, why not cybersecurity insurance?")
The CEO/CFO/board sees that if they buy insurance, they can better risk-manage cybersecurity breakins, and can provide an answer to the institutional investors.
The insurance actuaries can insist on audits to make sure the software/server/network infrastructure is secured well enough to be insurable.
The rank-and-file IT get stuck with implementing it, and employees get stuck suffering with increased security.
Moral of the story: start training for a job as an actuary.
From the perspective of their relative 'policy statements', I'd think that science would say "We need to characterize 'nothing' beyond our current understanding of spacetime and matter/energy", rather than "You don't know either, so you suck" (sorry if I'm misstating this).
Of course, humans typically identify better with the latter, which is why such arguments probably do better in the arena of public discourse. Maybe science's PR could maybe learn something from that.
Does the law of evolution count? In this case, selecting for awareness/attention to one's physical surroundings while controlling a high speed vehicle?
If depression is characterized by a 'spiral', then maybe it's analogous to a feedback loop producing the same neuroactive chemicals (?). If mushrooms alter the feedback 'coefficient' and/or 'decay constant', maybe that's what could keep it from producing the spiraling effect. Or maybe the 'reset' flushes those chemicals from the brain, after which the spiral is forced to start again from the beginning.
I'm not telling people not to learn English in some form -- but I think you understand what I am saying is that this is a language that you can [use to] express yourself to 7 billion people in the world,
Considering Google's recent offering, it would probably be even better if you can express yourself clearly and completely in your own native language.
Even with all of this technical brilliance on display (the costumes, sound, and special effects are brilliant), the baggage of the original film's mythology weighs down Blade Runner 2049. The most burdensome baggage for Villeneuve to carry, sadly, is the Blade Runner story itself.
If the story's the biggest issue, couldn't you take the movie, recut the visuals, and redub it? Getting some scenes to match the dialogue would be a problem, but between narration, voiceover, and dubbing, could you insinuate a wholly different story into the filmed material?
or is this just for good public relations/"corporate social responsibility" ? sorry if my skepticism about all thing alphabet, and other big techs, offends anyone; i just can't be blind to their past track record.
I'm sure you're completely correct --
btw, given we have been hyped about these balloons for years, why is there no real wide deployments(announced several times in multiple countries) up to now?
it's that the local carriers probably reached the tipping point where allowing another player on the field, was more in their best interest than trying to protect their monopolies in the near absence of infrastructure (including their own).
If I had to guess, I'd say Google ran Loon as a research-ish project to flush out problems and develop its feasibility. I personally think Google tries to do a lot of good. But if that's not the case, I'll concede that they may be evil; after which to be fair, I'd have to contrast their actions against those of the entire corporate (and governmental) landscape.
If they catch on, make sure you have records that you worked more than 40 to justify your salary, apologize if you must, and don't change your behavior.
If they're tracking your PTO this tightly, then meticulously track your own time as well. Depending on the state, you *might* be able to claim or settle for the extra hours you worked later, depending on your state's labor laws and stance.
* How dare we "clutter up" the UI and show the user a scroll bar so they can gauge spatial proximity. Now we have "endless" scrolling with no scroll bar -- so you have no fucking clue how far along the content you are. Want to QUICKLY scroll to a specific spot? LOL. Waste even more time trying to remember where it was. At least with scroll bars the slider position was a VISUAL MNEMONIC to help you remember roughly where it was.
I could see this devolving from relational database query results. If you run a query for stories ordered by most recent first, you could render/memoize the first few stories right away, and then have the server retrieve and render more query results in the background.
As you scroll down (hopefully with at least a dynamically growing scrollbar), the server would keep retrieving results from that query and rendering them live. In this way, there wouldn't ever be a 'length' to the content -- only the end of the query results.
Even in the world of that story, if Johnny doesn't get a reaction from the hair pulling, maybe next he kicks her and if that doesn't do anything, perhaps, he punches her. How the Hell is Sally supposed to know that Johnny is just a sweet kid looking for attention in a bad way and not a sociopath who wants to hurt her?
After he kicks her, she can respond in kind. If he's really interested, he'll come back. Or she could watch his interactions with other kids to see if he's actually a good kid, and then ask straight out if he's asking for attention in a bad way. She's got multiple choices here.

Between possibly increased corruption, police brutality, and all the crazy stuff you point out, we may end up getting both self-driving cars and ubiquitous dash cams. Heck, I bet insurance companies will want dashcams put in standard so they don't have to decipher telemetry (?) when deciding how to determine fault in a collision between two self-driving cars.
Here's hoping.
Wouldn't it make more sense to have the electric vehicles charge the drones, based on the battery capacity differential?
I actually am looking forward to the days of either 100% self driving cars, or everybody having dash cams.
So you're not happy with the way things currently are here?

They'll never beat Microsoft at this rate.
A person is fired for performance reasons. 2% of the workforce, fired and not laid off, with zero notice -- there's another underlying reason.

The accessory isn't *that* much money in the first place, though.

Well, it's a circular service area. So it would be circular miles. Or circular areolar miles, if you want to get technical.
So ... you got paid twice?
Pfft. We all know the best scenario you described was just you dropping ecstasy one night a couple weeks before you quit. Maybe peyote.

The most "user friendly" design is one that does the right thing every time.

Here you go. See, the Internet can be a useful, informative place.
