Those fellows are prehistoric hackers, don't you see that ? ;-)

Poor fellows are already unhappy cause they have been discovered and sooner or later the contact will happen. What matters now is how the contact is to be conducted. I think the best way is to take a couple representatives of the pride you

Rewriting any system does not take much money, it takes a lot of time and a pair of good devoted hackers. If you stuck with bad ones, even money won't help. I believe, twitter's hackers are good enough to deal with the problem and I don't

Extreme sports is very useful here. A couple of hours ride around the city on in-line skates usually solves all my emotional problems. If that does not help, I switch skates to my SUV and go to mountains for snowboarding :-).

Say that to Chinese gov ;-), there no freedom in China. Although I totally agree with your point.

Yes, but have you heard about gravitational collapse ? I think something similar is happining in China's economics when more workers produce more value, hence attract more capital and so on.

There's a very interesting point. Both China and India have nearely same population (1.32B and 1.12B people accordingly), and same education level as per the graph. Aslo it seems both countries are on same level of innovation, yet, China's

GDP havily depends on population itself. With its 1B of under-paid ppl, China has a lof of workers who produce VALUE, hence increase GDP. You know what was the greatest achievement of Chinese communist government ? It was the idea to let th

Your assumption is totally false. I'm Russian and I can tell you that more than 80% of Russian pupils join universities (or a college) after 11 years of school. Standard university education program lasts for 5 years, after that you can joi

I used to run my own BBS back in early 90th based on OS/2 and Maximus, it had an 8-lines modem pool, it was a Fidonet node hence was loaded with tons of usenet news and Fido echos and no-one knew what TCP/IP was and that was tough! Oh, I lo

Yeah, the logic is quite simple: the more advertisers get into business the higher bids become, the harder it gets to advertise anything on Google and the more revenue to Google money-making machine :-(. We quit advertising on Google a coup

Yeah, I like this approach :)

Well, I don't think that social approach for solving usability issues is a good idea. The only you can get applying it is a total misconception. Just take a look on to what "solutions" Nature has came using genetic algorithm :-)

Marcus, do you do an AI research just for fun, or do you have a decent idea how to monetize your startup or research results ? I'm surprised to hear that there are still AI entrepreneurs. :-)
