I agree with that comment, although I'm not sure that the reasons behind the statement are the same. My reasons/observations are that a) swedes tend not to think about "bad case", so if something does not go according to

The link suggests that this was announced in April this year. Do you think all the necessary DBs have already been connected? I would expect it to happen next year earliest.

Putting US-NATO stuff aside: "has historically always been part of Russia" is very bad reason to invade a country, especially in XXI century. Because most (if not all) countries have parts that from some perspective "have his

Crumpler Dry Red N5. Expandable, easy to clean, robust, with small features that I like a lot. It has been serving me for 6 years and the only sign of its age is slight wear-off of the top handle. This particular model is discontinued, but

In my country I see quite often that people throw away documents which have their personal number (analogue to SSN), their name and address on it. Mostly people don't even bother tearing these documents into pieces. Using this data I c

Maybe I miss something, but why are transhumanists not talking about improvements in ways of thinking? Like getting rid of cognitive biases, unnecessary stereotypes etc? To me their goals sound like they work on replacing HW in order to ”fi

Some part of me finds this amusing, to the extent of wishing this stay unfixed.

I've looked up russian sources and according to them the robot in question is managed by an operator using special "steering suite". The suite reads operator moves and transmits them to control the robot. AFAIK "Atlas&qu
