NATO knows that that it is easy to accidentally build dependencies on GPS into their systems, given that GPS is used everywhere. So to perform a serious exercise, they want to jam GPS to find out what stops working.
But it is difficult to just jam a specific area. There will be leakage. And that will annoy civilians that rely on GPS nearby.
Attenborough produced excellent work last century. And the thing that made it great was not just a budget and fine photography, but that it has real intellectual content. His Life on Earth should be part of any Biology course. Life of Birds was brilliant.
But that was long ago. Today, third rate people are producing the works, and he is just propped up to present them. The works are vacuous and have little real content. They are also spend much of their time talking about themselves.
Attenborough should resign as these new works just cheapen his good name. Otherwise, when he dies, they will stuff his corpse and still use him (or at least pre recorded footage of him).
We should not be using PKI that depends on a trusted source.
People have their own private keys. But then how to know that you are using the right one? The SSH problem.
So use SRP instead. Secure Remote Password. The communication only works if both people use the same password. And no way to brute force the password back. Simple, and intrinsically secure.
Indeed, and CFCs were also a lot easier to eliminate. They were far less fundamental than Carbon.
Indeed, before the fairly recent availability of cost effective solar, it looked impossible. All the rivers have been dammed. Nuclear has been damned. The only one available was wind.
But it looks like we will do it. Eliminate Carbon. If only because much of the world's population will be eliminated by the warming...
Just vast numbers of people pushing as hard as they can, and then the trains take off, always on time, with some people hanging out the door. It is a real sport.
The more features software has the better. Eventually it will become so complicated that even the virus writers will not be able to understand it.
But writing Stuxnet was an appalling thing to do because it legitimized state sponsored computer attacks as being legitimate and non-military. The west cannot take high moral ground about them having launched Stuxnet against Iran. And Stuxnet only slowed them down by a few months anyway, despite being extremely clever. It also escaped, and was discovered in Russia, by memory.
So the only thing to do is spend lots more money on cyber warfare. So I guess the Stuxnet team was extremely successful in achieving that, its real goal.
That is what "statisitcal" language learning is about. Particularly useful for translation.
Your recharacterization is indeed much better than "to learn the way children learn" as we do not know how children learn.
AIs can already do many things better than people. If it would ever be as intelligent as a small child on everything, it would be a lot more intelligent than an adult in many other things.
An AI is not a human. It is a different beast entirely.
If someone falls of a roof that is not called a solar death.
I think confirmed deaths from Fukushimas is about 1. Plus maybe a dozen more statistical deaths. The tsunami killed thousands.
And that is the point. Nobody talks about the tsunami. The reactor is considered to have been far more dangerous than the ocean, even though the facts are quite different.
This makes nuclear untenable. Safety issues are over blown. Nobody is going to shut down the solar industry because someone falls off a roof. But think about what happens to nuclear investment if even one person dies.
Likewise the nuclear waste. It is a major issue precisely because it contains those two words, "nuclear" and "waste". Perceptions are reality.
So let's hope the price of solar falls before the globe cooks.
Just memory addresses. *Foo could be one or a few or many. Pointer arithmetic.
So variable arrays feels odd.
If you did not like chasing down weird memory corruption problems then you would not be using C (or C++) in the first place.
It would have been trivial to add a little bit of sanity with syntax like
void foo(char buf[blen], int blen)
so a compiler could, in debug mode, check. But no, that would not be a hero's C. nor is variable length arrays.
Incidentally, C's lack of arrays is not efficient. E.g. it is the reason we need 64 bit pointers, namely that C can only address 4 gig in 32 bit pointers. Java can access 32 gig of memory with 32 bit pointers because mallocs are aligned, and 32 gig is more than enough for the vast majority of current applications, and likely to remain so for a long time to come. Doubling your pointer size with lots of zeros is expensive, it clogs caches etc.
Worse, neither politicians, journalists nor many public servants can do arithmetic. That is about $200,000 subsidy per job! There are not many small businesses that could not create jobs for a fraction of that!
It is indeed interesting that streaming and the promise of the internet has actually reduced the availability of legal content. The video store had more than Netflix.
I am surprised that the independents do not get together and create a site.
It is better than just sneaking something small past an Asemi-I. Sneak something big past. Something that no human would ever let through. Like the surety being the first born child. Or possibly something more enforceable.
This happens to simplistic AIs that mark English essays. Well written gibberish can get high marks. The sad thing is that the AIs generally do a better job than human markers, which is probably more a statement about the humans doing the marking than the AI.
In modern cars. I could not do it myself in my Citroen. The mechanic had special tools and an endoscope. For a Reno, you need to pull off the bumper amongst other things.
Certainly understanding human cognition will help AI development. But AI will no more be a copy of a biological brain than an aeroplane is a copy of a bird.

So blame the jamming on the Russians.
Looks like you can still replace that. Looks like Apple messed up there.
Many people, and certainly tall ones, would be happy to pay 10% more for 10% more leg room. That is an extra 3".
But you actually need to pay 100% more to get a slightly bigger seat in Premium Economy.
And that is the point. If Economy was too comfortable, they would not sell many Business class seats.
If I ran an airline, I would remove the padding from Budget Economy seats.

Right in the middle of the screen. Images could be made to warp around it.
Much cooler than a mere notch.
Take that Apple!

Plus the things that SQL should have added decades ago, like easy syntax for things like
Select invoice.customer.salesman.name from invoice...
Old Linus speak
"You're an idiot...."
Means fix it up and resubmit.
New Linus speak
"I think that there might be an opportunity for improvement..."
means your about to be fired (or barred).
Be very very wary of people that are very polite.
And the good news is that when the occasional bomb goes of and kills a dozen more, nobody really notices.
Just vast numbers of people pushing as hard as they can, and then the trains take off, always on time, with some people hanging out the door. It is a real sport.
Killed 6,989 passengers apparently.

It is difficult for an outsider to know which is the truth.
But we do all know how Damore was treated.
Only one data point. But went to the CEO.

An AI is not a human. It is a different beast entirely.
The robots will be able to do it all by themselves. Perhaps with a little help from the friends back on earth.
Heck, robots are already doing a pretty fine job of exploring Mars today.
The real question is whether by 2038 humans will still be necessary on Earth. How about by 2138?
Humans have only got a couple of generations left at most anyway.

Or his manager may have decided the less work he does the less damage he can do.
Or his manager liked watching porn on his computer.
