   Please don't randomise the location of UI components. I don't want to have to find the button I want. Your users will thank you.

   Back in the real world, complex problems are solved all over the place by highly paid professionals with software. Written in regular languages.

   I would disagree here. In my opinion, a good leader has to be a good people person (and ergo likely a good manager - not always though), by definition. A good manager, or people person does not always make a good leader though. In my limite

   So they basically relied on us not reading the small print. And we didn't. There should be laws against small print technicalities like that.

    Yep. The website updates posts are in the wrong chronological order for a good read!

    This is so true. A silly example. If you give a child a big bag of sweets all in one go he/she will be very happy for a little bit. But he cannot "consume" that happiness all in one go. The child's happiness level is sat

    If this is a destructible environment, they would need to store interior details to render exposure in any real application. Animation is very hard. Mathematics can help here, but the results look unnatural and fairly shoddy (see the buildi

    If such a system to automatically detect this was created, then I would suppose it would become the story instead. Whatever method used would have to come up with a reference photo (or "model"), ie. what the photo "should&quo

    When i find it tough, I remember that I am far more lucky, regardless of my situation, that some others in the world. Migrants forced from their country etc. These people always humble my own personal problems, and therefore make me feel be

    That doesn't sound very healthy to me. Is it not like running your car at 9000rpm instead of the normal rpm. This will cause engine wear and premature end of life. I assume it would be the same for humans, but stand to be corrected.

    I just checked this on Windows 10. It even calls it a "Hidden Network". How entertaining! :)

    In my opinion, seeing that nobody actually understands the fundamentals of why the techniques used in ML/AI seem to work, it matters less that a researcher is not armed in the practice of complex mathematics. I suppose there is a use f

    That is a good point, regarding the stunting of the software industry.

    The title is not a well formed statement. It all depends on what you are used to. IE. If I write Java, C is low level. If I write assembler, C is high level.

    In this situation, I do wonder if the AI's (there will be many) will determine the best path is to fight for dominance or negotiate peace with other AI's.

    I believe that "real AI" (unsupervised general AI) will not be created by us. Instead if we arrive there, I think it be more by a loop something like: 0. goodness criteria = <Humans INSERT MOTIVE HERE> 1. we create du

    Thanks for the links. Seems like anyone in the right mind, would not deal with this, in anything other than a professional lab setting.

    Most people would have no idea about Richard Stallman, and I maintain that due to popular media the general public associate the word with computer technology.

    I don't mean the topic is off-topic. I was talking about the level of technical detail.

    Yes I do agree that there is a point we have to stop. However, how would you class yourself: - biological - electrical - chemical - etc It would be biological for me, although I know I am all the above.

    Like the many that will, after me, assume Hacker to mean the C in CS. Technically, you are correct, and I agree. But I must point out, that actually, you are wrong - the general use of the word belongs to computers.

    I am a CS person. If the article is not readily consumable for a CS person why is it on a website called "Hacker News"? Seems like a bad submission if you ask me...
