I see that it was my mistake to assume that we would be able to have any kind of civilized debate. If you prefer to think that anyone that disagrees with you is part of a conspiracy then you should get your paranoia checked with a doctor.
AI doesn't need to be perfect, it just needs to be better than humans in the cases that it is applied. As someone that rides bikes and has a Master's degree in AI, I would feel safer sharing roads with self-driving cars such as those from Google than with human drivers. I've had accidents because some careless driver decided to stop on the bike lane out of nowhere. That driver was either hateful or careless in a way that state of the art self driving cars already aren't.
Using your own arguments, just because you are a scared little rabbit fearing self-driving cars shouldn't stop other people from having getting them.
Look, I just want to thank you two for keeping a civil and informed conversation on such a hot topic. It makes me glad for not having left Slashdot behind.
Do you mean the guy that always explain the joke in the way that everyone else had already understood, and that is the reason that he is called Obvious? The Captain part would then imply a superhero persona that comes out of nowhere to do this duty of explaining.
I find this one funny since I was playing UT2004 in Linux long before Steam was on Mac. It came with a Linux installer in the CD before I even had a Steam account.
I'd just like to point that the Agent Smith example might not really relate to cloning, since he was the representation of a program on a very complex interface (the Matrix). We can't say for sure whether his clones were copies of the same program, or one program expanding - why wouldn't a program be able to control two entities at the same time?
Sometimes it isn't about money, it's just about showing that you care. For example, I have this friend that has a complicated financial situation. When we go out with her, she tries to spend as little as possible, or even openly transfer the cost to people that she considers that have a better situation. But she spends more with her roommate. I don't really care about the money, but if you say that you can't go out because you need money, or expect me to foot most of the bill, and at the same time spend more with other people, I feel that my friendship is worth less.
If a Uber driver uses the GPS as I do he will driver either slowly or miss the correct turn because he didn't notice it was right over there. And cash register operators barely have to enter any numbers now, they just have to swipe the product in front of a laser and get as much money as the machine tells them to. And they still get that wrong from time to time.

It's nice that you were here to flesh it out.

As Socrates's life teaches us, that's not really new.
I don't see that really helping, it would be trivial to get the "logged off AC" if they wanted to spam.
I found a thread on HackerNews about playing "Eye of the Tiger" on a dot matrix. A comment seems to direct to the file you mention.
I think they find funny that they can draw a relation between the captcha word and the topic.
Are we talking about the pet or the owner?
And here for a moment I thought that Bennet Hasselton had moved to video.
Similar, but without the ironmanning. I think that in the book they only discussed the idea.
Well, there is an open source port for Descent, so maybe? I guess it depends on which libraries it needs.
Do you remember which side of the wall he was? That influences the meaning heavily. A Google search suggests this is some Russian joke.

That was a though one to swallow.
But if I look won't I possibly kill the cat?

Those aren't exclusive.
The snake didn't deserve that comparison.
He was confused by the visual representation of THAC0.
You have waited your whole life for this, haven't you?
You need to learn about "hurd immunity".
Can I use Linux immunity instead? That one is taking too long.
