We've already had a few chatbots pass a turing test. Just none that are particularly sophisticated. One in particular just acted "cheeky" to throw off the other person.

You can choose any android you want, even if its not a Nexus/Pixel. It just might not be as good, because its not controlled by google. But, I do think that argument died a long a time ago because of the cruft OEM's have been add

I use the Nexus, which runs stock android by default. This new pixel phone will probably also do so, being a direct (ish) google phone. I think its because if the cruft 3rd party OEMs have been adding that google has been making these pho

I'm actually migrating a large (poorly written) angular 1 project to angular 2 using the adapter. For the most part, its pretty straightforward. Unfortunately, if your ng1 code still uses ng-controller extensively, you'll probabl

If it works the way I expect it to, I think all it would do is push the whole group of tandem bots down. The cheesing wouldn't make them score better against other user's bots.

From speaking with internal Amazon employees, their total profit is negative because they invest more money into expansion than they are taking in. They make an incredible amount of money and likely would be turning a profit if not for the

The statement "Half of all Carbon 14 decays in 5,730 years" does not say anything about the decay in years after that. Half lives on the other hand are defined as being a re-occurring phenomenon, such that it _does_ say something
