As a German I have to say that Spiegel and spiegel.de aren't good journalism outlets and haven't been since many years ago. If I want well made journalism with actual investigative activities I'll resort to sueddeutsche.de, c

I think this is one of the most on spot and reasonable comments in this thread. The rest is writing about how worried they are or convincing others how unlikely it is. Some folks here down vote faster than they can think it seems.

The mirror test always seemed flawed to be because of its reliance on visual perception. For many animals eyes and the primary source of environmental information. For some it's the nose. Now how about a special device that synthesizes

In terms of machine learning money is the opposite of regularization. The more money the less regularization the more over-fitting to your specific self-chosen environment. A not rich person will have to learn to cope with obstacles. A rich

Maybe that explains why Google gave me 1st-page results about "shrooms" few days ago while my search term was specifically asking for "Champignons" and "pizza" and whether to pre-boil or use them raw.

That's 50% of what I use my mostly abandoned Twitter account for. Doesn't work as great as I would like it to, though. Most marketing people at larger companies mastered the art of slick 'n' slimy vague communication.
