When I interview I start with a question that is relatively easy that anyone who can code could solve. Then follow that up with a question that is more difficult that builds on the previous answer.
For example, I would ask a candidate to write recursive Fibonacci function (I would explain what Fibonacci numbers are). If they are able to do that, then I would ask them what would happen if their function was called like this: "fib(10000);".
This should not be called "Basic Income", but "Citizen's Dividend". After all all citizens own the resources of the country so they should receive a dividend.
If you don't know what it "means" what have you learned? The function takes in 1,000,000 inputs and outputs 1000 numbers. Which one are you going to trace?:)
The algorithm that exists is this: given a set of input data and a set of output data, we ask the computer to create a function than maps input to output, according to how we label the data (input-1 goes into output-42, etc). What this algorithm produces is a function that performs this kind of mapping on the sample data, within some acceptable error. Then we feed it data it has not seen and look at the output.
The function it produces in general would not be comprehensible to a human, since it turns out that most useful functions have millions of inputs, and millions of internal variables and are highly non-linear.
You entirely missed the point. These systems are essentially programs written by machines (that's the learning process), they are not written to be understandable by people. With your debugger you will see that a variable x1267321467321587 is sometimes set to 1.0123 and other times 34243.11111.
You will have not idea what that means.
The Electors are free to vote for whatever candidate they like. Any state laws that require them to vote for the popular vote winner is their state would most likely be found unconstitutional.
The intention of Electoral College has always been a check on the popular vote. So far EC has never exersized this power, but in theory it could happen
Not really. There are many reasons to vote for Hillary and the Democrats. For one thing, if the Republicans win 20 million Americans will loose their health insurance.
This can't be good for the company as a whole either. They're wasting money on these ditzy 20-something sorority-girl recruiters' salaries,
Your attitude does not sound like Google material...
Actually younger employees tend to get married and have children. In terms of medical insurance having children is a lot more expensive.
Plus all the high tech companies offer paternity leave or 90 days or more.
So I'm not sure who is cheaper.
Vote Trump - see 20 million people loose health insurance. I bet you lots of Slashdotters are under 26 and on their parent's plan. If Trump wins you'll get kicked off - day one!
Wouldn't any email she sent/received from the State Department be also archived on SD servers? You can delete emails from your outbox, but they don't disappear from my inbox.
So any official emails must be available in State Department archives.
Sigh. I know how electronics work. When the speaker/headphone that accepts digital input only is sealed by the manufacturer, opening it up to connect to the analog input is not allowed - you are bypassing DRM, which is not legal under today's law. That's the point.

Yeah, but what if I hack an American bank, steal some money and the send it to you. Are you criminally liable?

What do you suggest then? That they and their children should starve? Be homeless? Suffer more?
Have you see the movie Tron? It's just like that!

Martin Gardner had included a section on "chiropractic medicine" in his book Fads and Falacies in the name of Science. He argued that it was BS too.
No need to ban. Just treat guns like cars. You need a license to own/use one and you have to have liability insurance.
Sounds like her read Utopia for Realists
People still use voice mail?
Why does he think that shopping will be around in 2075?

Wait, at the end of last year there were 90 million people out of the workforce. Did they all get hired last month?! :)

You can start here

I was hired at Google when I was 56. Still there.

At least we agree here. Most people don't care until lawyers come after them. Remember DeCSS?
