We will see! Our intuition that we understanding something is often incomplete in critical ways. Exciting times ahead either way.

Start with something easier, like simulating water. Our best ab-initio simulations, last time I checked, don't correctly predict it's phase change locations. Digital abstractions deliberately supress every single other interaction

Binary computing is never going to emulate wetware on a reasonable scale. A few neurons? Sure. It's going to take a different pardigm, likely biological. Evolving FPGA's (by ignoring the digital abstraction) is a window into why.

Sci-fi conditioning mixed with a hefty assumption that people are computers.

There is no good reason to think pre-programmed computers are going to outperform human drivers when it counts. It's a prediction about the future, someting that has not happened yet. It's most likely wrong. No amount of marketing

hiQ didnt sign a contract. It's public info. They broke the ToS, but unless the ToS get inserted into a contract, and signed by both parties we arent even in Civil Law terratory, which is what this excellent court decision confirmed.

If it was really that easy then we would have SOPA, ACTA, CISPA, PIPA, TPP and about 20 other bad ideas put on paper. All of those failed, if they had not, MegaCorp would have significantly more power. Heck TPP had ways for a foreign corpor

Sounds like we agree that's a bad thing. To your first sentence, no, they propose laws. They dont get to revise their ToS and have it be a violation of the law when you ignore it. That would be like the EPA making a rule, because they

By letting ToS have the force of law...

by jakeogh 7y ago
Your argument is to let corporations effectively make law.

Pointless unless you want a one world governement to enforce a law monoculture.

by jakeogh 7y ago
It's already legal. Adding law adds restrictions.

We can't in principal encode it as a numeric copy; it's not measurable. Position or momentum. The mind isnt a closed system unless it's drawn as lightcurves.

Yep it's totally the form factor. I looked at it again when I found that NXP system (thanks to #olimex:)... half considered asking about getting rid of the ram slots, ATX connector, PCI's and various tower plugs and adding the abi

Heh, I hadn't either. My dream machine has 4x NVMe, 128G of soldered on RAM (with power control), a real SDR, plenty of GPIO, ADC/DAC. 2x ethernet, serial, CAN, novena style fpga, second SOC cpu with dma... basically a hacked up L

I want a laptop where the all of the design files are open source. It would be worth a serious premium in addition to the premium I would pay for the open POWER system. The few we have now are maxed out at 4GB. Someone is going to do it...

I agree. The humans are the bugs thing is an excuse that the pre-programmed proponents keep leaning on. That hypothetical has the unintentional implicit frame; as if it's the non pre-programmed humans that are the problem, when clearly

Fun. Is there a way to accelerate?

hiQ vs Linkedin was a Heller vs DC. This feels congruent.

True, but jamming wouldnt be necessary. Confirmation bias hacks work by preventing the target from even looking for the signal. Or worse.
