Am I alone in thinking critical infrastructure monitoring like this should be run on the metal in your own center? Sure, offload some data for processing and reporting to cloud providers. But I'm slightly worried that electrical grid t

I suppose sibling comments were downvoted because they didn't address (a) the probable truth of the parent and (b) it's comedic nature. I'm curious if any natural being could ever last so long. To stand that sort of test of t

It might be, though. I have heard this exact thing from a friend about her husband. She may divorce him over it. It is very specifically when he is out. It is worth looking into the effects of prolonged drug use (even mj) on the brain and p

The Songs of Distant Earth by Arthur C Clarke makes it a large plot point that any vessel traveling through the stars would need some kind of "windshield" as mentioned in the article. His idea for implementing it seems as good as

We went from 1 engineer (me) to 4 last year. So I'm in the 2-10 stage. I coded prototype and first X customers, which has become literally 20X in the past year. I still code most of the time, and the primary problem I am encountering i

I can't for the life of me understand why the 10th amendment does not have a more prominent place in the American political system than it does. It is because government would be hamstrung if they respected it? It would seem to the lay

Being directly involved in the execution of the example you gave, I believe ML would be unnecessary and error-prone. Even if successful, a system which could "interpret" a health record (such as a freetext note) using anything oth

This seems to be the point of the issue. What I heard on the radio was "do you lose your job, lose your wife/family, yet continue to play?" So what about the case where playing the game IS your job (which is a growing field?)

That manual and the warcraft/starcraft manuals are responsible for a large part of the person I am. I was 10 at the time, and the universes that Blizzard created got me into gaming, from there into social gaming (m:tg) and then into co

I've found that when a developer on my team is tasked with explaining something to another team member, they themselves get a much better grasp of the topic. When we are doing work we often do "what works" to complete the job

So let me ask you, do you think the people in charge do not know this? Do you buy into the media push that Trump is a petulant, reactive child who does not listen to advisers? Do you think our government is truly led by the whims of a singl

If that's the case, I wish the information would include percentage of cases. 90% side effect of severe depression and 2% side effect of dry mouth is a very different medication than 90% dry mouth and 2% severe depression.

I have no legal basis for this but it seems apparent to me that there is a difference between data you generate vs data generated for you. For instance, in Microsoft Word if I type a book, I obviously own that data because I myself entered
