People seem to generally not understand how borders work. In most countries you are allowed to enter ENTIRELY at the discretion of the border control agent. If they don't like the look of you, don't like your name, find something

Yes, if, like the robot, you own that person. That seems unlikely though.

This article (willfully) mistakes Waymo's caution for allegedly intractable nature of the self-driving problem.

It may have been Xilinx not wanting to get into bed with Intel. Xilinx may have wanted a degree of technical independence or freedom to carry out their own strategy that was not forthcoming from Intel.

This is a smart move, reflecting Intel's own, with an eye to the datacenter where the FPGA is seen as having a bright future.

"Beta" self-driving software sounds like an incredibly bad idea. The notion that they are rolling it out to "expert and careful drivers" makes no sense. Is there a tap-through EULA where Tesla disclaims your potential de

I have no problem with that, but don't pretend that someone is abusing your license when you didn't stipulate. If fact someone should come up with a well written licence that adds conditions when the licensee revenue is over a cer

Clearly wage discriminants needs to be within job types otherwise they're meaningless. I'm sure any honest implementation would be on that basis.

I think most people don't upgrade their phone until something breaks, maybe that's what is driving cycle length. That underlines the marketing genius of non-user replaceable batteries, which are usually the first thing to go.

My phones last about 5 years and my last phone, the Moto G6 Plus, cost about $200. They're not very useful computers in relative terms, beyond being very portable, and there is a lack of compelling new features in new phones. Right now

How is wage-based visa allocation denying entry-level applicant visas a bad thing? If there are entry level roles to be filled they should be filled locally since they're low skill/experience by definition. If you're going to

There are only two types of euros: notes that are physical evidence of said money, and deposits in banks. You can transact by exchanging notes or by instructing your bank to perform a transfer. Both have limitations with the second being th

You don't need to worry. There is no such thing as a generic native speaker of English, since one can only learn a local form natively. Every speaker of English is offending some native speaker of English somewhere. Generally speaking,

What do you mean by "native English speakers"? Native speakers of US English and British English rountinley have difficulty communicating. English has become the global language, so there will always be local forms. You can't

Both of those examples are just local idiomatic usages, there's nothing incorrect about them. You get those wherever English is spoken, including variations within countries and cities.

The survival of any language is only dependent on having a population that speaks it. In that sense Euro English potentially has a larger speakership than US or British English. The reason Euro English exists is because it's more conve

It's argument that has not been given much careful thought. Hardware bought today will likely become obsolete itself before Apple obsoletes it. Apple will likely be supporting Intel hardware with updates for at least 5 years and probab
