Isn't this already happening? I stream games to devices around my house from my office where I have my desktop, and a small Debian server as a media server, mumble hosting and the occasional chivalry or CoD4 server with friends. I get

Algae slush is carbon coming from our current system, our current atmosphere, it is renewable. Fossil fuel is releasing carbon from and external source (external on a human timescale at least). It will be essential in creating a renewable r

Maybe slammed is a little bit of an overstatement, it was more of a smug poke. Even still... acting smug about an AI that plays go when the other Microsoft article[1] on here from ten hours ago mentions that the company is working on creati

Yeah, not thinking they are all powerful, just sounds like they can be fine tuned easier than designing a whole new for-purpose chips. Thank you for the info though!

Anything they want. I think it's like having a blank breadboard circuit, Microsoft can mock up a new purpose designed chip and program it in to these FPGAs instead of having to fab one up from scratch. It's hard to tell from the a

If you don't code around gamma then don't bother reading? I mean it says in the title, right there "about gamma", I don't see how that's drawing anyone else but the intended audience. I don't even deal in

Normally I'd have the same opinion about most laptops being shoddy built with a missing wifi or audio driver for linux here and there, but I've been playing around with the 14" HP Probook from 2012 I think? I haven't had

Please note, I'm not taking sides in this. Your last sentence was all I had issue with.

But it does have to do with you? All of this affects the world you live in, the world that you interact with directly every single day. The house you live in, the wage you're paid, the food you eat, the medicine you receive, everythin

I haven't tried pulling Excel -> SQL with PowerQuery yet, only really dabbled in presenting data the other way. Do you know if this works easily with a document that utilises a lot of macros and VBA? Or are we still talking flat CSV

I find myself working with four letter codes to identify wards and facilities at my work, inevitably I have to compare my SQL output to someone's spreadsheet. No excel, I didn't mean March 02, just give me MAR2 like I asked. Drug

Only if you want to be the good kind of biased, the kind we can get behind here at HN.

To be fair, it's becoming pretty common to have RAM and storage soldered to the board these days on small form factor laptops, so it's not just Apple.

Wouldn't that imply that the second drug might just be there to ease side effects of the first? Regulate hormonal levels or blood pressure, or any other functions that might not be directly related to how effective the other one is but

Comments like that second to last paragraph are why people compare apple to cults. Could you be less self aware?

I work with imaging systems that identify medicines. While they are wildly simpler in terms of analysis (basically using the silhouette to calculate shape and size), most attempts to add colour to the equation ends up adding a new, complex

I always assume the build quality statement refers exclusively to their macbooks, and even that is less a statement about apple vs windows as it is apple vs every other hardware manufacturer. I'd just like a laptop that still has worki

Creativity hasn't bottomed out, you're just not looking in the right pond. Of course your huge money making pop label isn't going to be pushing the boundaries of contemporary music, take a moment to go looking for something n

Didn't they say that certain browsers render elements differently and they wanted a consistent experience?

I would imagine dividing the column in to ten segments would leave them rather small and difficult to hit accurately, on screen keyboards for instance require a certain amount of prediction to guide missed clicks; a fader lets you dial it i

Absolutely, it's hard to prove. Maybe the answer isn't in government, it just seems like a silly thing to leave to the invisible hand of capitalism, seeing as that exact reasoning appears to have brought us here. Why not cultivate

Ok then, what about the health of your consumers (not just medically)? Is the community at large not an asset we all tap in to every day? People have noticed that there is a growing portion of that asset that can't contribute as well a

This kind of sounds like a variation/extension on Leonard Susskind's hologram reality, he mentions in these presentations and lectures[1] that a lot of the ideas came from Maldacena and the soup can (I hope that's the right v

Wasn't it only one of those CPU's though? He mentioned there is a CPU dedicated to disk operation and that's the one no one had been able to get a ROM dump of, which in turn enabled all the other stuff? Not trying to downplay

There was an interesting TED talk a while ago about this idea applied to cities, how they 'live' and communicate and grow but how we have never really seen one die. Less about AI I suppose and more about new life.
