I strongly believe the manuscript is undecipherable in the sense thats it's all gibberish. I can't prove it, but at this point I think it's more likely than not to be hoax.

My son is a teenager but loves to watch old politically incorrect comedies like "Airplane". There's no way you could make that movie today... but there's certainly a market for it, cruel or not. Now that I think about it

Not surprising. Apple suffered an epic defeat (pun intended) and now engages in its usual passive-aggressive behavior to avoid compliance.

Remember that these are 1986s dollars, worth nearly $3 today.

It was wonderful. It's like having the entire industry in your hands. If it's for sale, chances are Computer Shopper has it. The magazine was nearly 100% ads and I could spend a long time doing nothing but consuming ads. Nonethe

I built my Jellyfin server on $180 PC from Amazon and an old USB HDD. It was basically installing it from the downloadable installer and configuring parts. You will need a client to access it, and Roku works great. I'm running it on th

You just described pop music making. Change tempo, pitch, add/remove lyrics, etc from prior art.

I didn't ask your to prove that. I literally asked about human feeling. Another person answered it.

You're putting words in my mouth. Why don't you answer the question instead?

How do you know you "feel"? What is a "feeling"?

Microsoft was an amazing place to work for 10-15 years (in the late 90s and early 2000s) despite higher interest rates. I was there so I know it.

While I mostly agree with you, I also believe there is no guarantee that a human will always be needed to tend the AI. Your argument assumes an arbitrary capability level for the AI, one that is comfortable for the human. It's quite

Thanks for sharing. One of my greatest fears for our industry is that we'll never have a company like early Google again. The company should have changed names when Pichai took the reins because it metamorphised into something unrecogn

What is the middle ground? Everybody knows that "free" has a huge appeal. But so does low cost, which arguably vastly reduced piracy for older movies and music. It seems that content providers found ways to unlock content by payin

Why do sites hijack scrolling? Reading this on my laptop is painful.

The movies you mentioned were far from any type of hacker culture. They were much more about the power of computers, then a mysterious machine people knew little about.

The movie was partially responsible for creating the stereotype. This was 1992 and hacker culture wasn't yet mainstream.

Setec Astronomy is also the name, obviously inspired by the movie, of a successful MIT Puzzle Hunt group.

Yes, the vast majority of the websites are just being annoying because they are childish. It has nothing to do with the law. The medium-large company I used to work in the US hired a full-time senior director to address GDPR. He had a team

Our views are so far apart, I think we can't have a productive discussion in an online forum. Suffice to say, I don't have a problem with you living your life as you please. I just intuitively believe that if enough people think l

Could someone in Mexico order a Chinese product, take it out of the box, put it in a Mexican made box and export it as a Mexican product?

Is that your vision for middle class jobs? Government? And who will pay for these... The "rich"?

There is an enormous problem with sub-employment. Scores of Americans "employed" in activities such as Uber/Lyft driving, food delivery and quasi-prostitution (OnlyFans and adjacent). Floodlight making would be a huge step up

by glimshe 1y ago
If it employs an American and helps recreate our middle class... Yes I do. First they came for the floodlight maker's job. Next they will come for yours.

There are many companies all over the world focused on local markets. The car industry is strategic, but I wouldn't mind buying a floodlight from a company that doesn't export anything.

This. I can't understand why people don't see it. Of course we can't rebuild what China does overnight. But we can create new supply chains at a lower quality point and then climb back to our original level. I've seen it

As long as Europe is dependent on the US for its defense, it will be dependent on everything else. Building an European OS isn't enough.
