Imagine a world where every country has nuclear weapons and methods of their delivery - a true democracy, or a diversity of democracies you could say.

Pretty much. If the car is choosing between the occupant and ten school kids on the sidewalk, it better choose the occupant because presumably thats who paid for it. Noone will buy self driving cars unless they take the occupants' safe

Pretty much the same motivations as today - people reporting twitter/etc... posts to your employeers/etc... as soon as a non politically correct, non-conformist opinion is mentioned. And thats without even mentioning the NSA.

Name me one region or country where the native population was treated fairly after its conquest by islamists, by sword or through the womb. Or that managed to progress economically or scientifically. There is not a single one. And don'

Well Selim, the Serbs are wise people who fought against invading muslims for more than 500 years. If anything, the "west" needed to learn from them instead of bombing them to oblivion. Modern muslim population of the Balkans are

I've got no issues with a population explosion over there. They are sovereign people and noone should tell them what to do. As long as the west doesn't have idiots like Angela Merkel at the helm, everybody can mind their own busin

Singapore - a homogenous population? Is this a joke, or are you outright lying to cover for your other arguments.

At my last interview I had this entire pdf in my head: www.ee.ryerson.ca/~kclowes/documents/eaads.pdf No I wouldn't say it counted as implementation time. Same way as driving to work doesn't count as work (as unfort

I agree. Although it will be hard to separate the need for transparency to one's rights to privacy. You can deem that some actions inherently leave you no rights to privacy, but I'm afraid it'll be only a matter of time till

I can see how the fact that its an interview will make it significantly more stressful to fit in the required time. Rating your reaction was probably another part of the interview altogether. The only real recommendation I can give is - hav

I have. Pretty much you already have to have the whole implementation in your mind before you write a single line of code. Shouldn't be an issue since you should cover that exact implementation in your uni algorithms classes. Well I&#x

"I’m pretty sure nobody can implement a List<T> linked list in 30 minutes. " Absolute rubbish. Checkout the monthly challenges on hackerrank. You have an hour to implement 4 problems, and none of them are as trivial as imple

Hopefully smart people working in this area can learn to regrow them from stem cells, so once a tooth cannot be repaired any longer, it can be popped out and a new can grow in your gum in its place.

The balance of people on HK shifted from entrepreneurs to wageslaves, so the content shifted accordingly. No offense to anybody, currently a wageslave myself.

Anybody who expects you to know every new technology is a fool. The most important thing is being able to teach yourself the new technology and figure out its kinks.

For professions to be viable, there has to be a large dip between people starting out and people who had mastered it already. Otherwise there is no real incentive for people to start out in the first place; noone will pay a lot of money and

Except that happens all the time, you just don't know about it. This is what its all about - transparency and disclosure. If you keep the first guy in the dark (as 98% of corporations do), he doesn't feel "bad" enough to

Thats the reason I don't like dentists who are also proprietors and have fewer patients due to the location of their clinics. Too much conflict of interest - there is no point for them to wait and see if a tooth can reinitialize, they&
