While I agree, I've met people who think the idea of a negative index is completely absurd. Their brains seem to immediately reject the concept.

Those are problems that have nothing to do with having measurements that can be imagined with concrete analogies. Nobody uses "feet" to mean literally their personal feet. A foot is a standardized unit of measure about the size of

Not sure how its relevat anyway, but that doesn't sound silly to me. Why would have a concrete, relatable equivalent be a bad thing?

Morally, you're also killing someone with no intent on harming you who isn't an immediate threat. Sure, its not quite straightforwardly wrong, but it sure isn't right.

Sure, but you could create physical models, rotate those physical models on top of the video, and see if certain faces are a better match. Obviously it helps if there's more pixels and it doesn't need to be proof in a court of law

This seems like a problem long-term support contracts and medical insurance should be able to make a non-issue. Obviously, if someone undergoes an experimental medical treatment, the company performing the test should bear the responsibilit

I think of metrics like I do accounting. Accounting is all about measuring parts of the business. You track every dollar sent, lost, owed, etc. Every economic transaction is measured. But nobody wants to just stare at a list of raw transact

I've always thought something could be done with faces when you blur them out in video. The fact that the grid moves and the colors change make me intuitively feel as if I could guess their face. I bet the 3 letter agencies already hav

Honestly seems like a better fit for him than VR. VR may be games, but everyone is saying his strengths are technical, not organizational. Seems like he wants to work on hard technical problems and thats what he's good at.

OP, I think you're anthropomorphizing the software. Its generating text that matches a topic, it doesn't actually understand your question or have the ability to perform actions on the computer running it.

People making money off of your data should get your consent and compensate you. No one does, though. But Amazon is the bad guy here for some reason.

True and non-fiction aren't the same thing. Conspiracy theories and crackpot ideas don't purport to be literary works. Nobody talks about papers about the luminiferous ether as works of fiction simply because they're wrong. M

Fair enough. I guess in those days, there weren't as many systems that depended on the assumption of time lurching forward one second at a time.

I have a crackpot theory that two languages are related, so I'm writing a program to try to reconstruct root words that derive from a common language - using test-driven development.

I've been getting messages and mail in Oregon and I think they're just making things up. They even tried to shame me for voting in the general elections, but not the midterms. This is of course nonsense, but its probably easier to

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see how this correlation shows that the mapping is semantic and not, say, grammatical, syntactic, or structural in some way.
