Ah, ok, allow me to explain the joke: Hipsters do whatever crap they do and claim they did it "before it got cool". Or, to stress it even further, stop an action when it becomes mainstream. Tell you something about them actually enjoying any of the crap they do... but I digress.
So Hipster jokes center around them doing something "before it gets cool". Like: How do you turn a cocktail into a hipster drink? Microwave it for 30 seconds and drink it before it gets cool.
This.
Why would I want an AI that plays games? I want an AI that takes the boring tasks off me so I can play games!
As far as I can tell, the robot just took the job of the jargon texter. And those bozos being out a job can only lead to a better world.
Because the e was already there before it got cool.
Usually when it comes to the whole security show spiel, there's little, if any, relevant information going public. Especially when it shows that the whole crap is just a big, useless black hole for pork barrel money. How often and how long have we been asking for anything that shows the whole TSA annoyance has anything coming close to resembling having a positive effect on security?
But suddenly we get such a report without even asking for it? C'mon. What crony didn't pay his kickback in time so his project has to be axed?
It makes sense if you read it as a German. "Code" is a homonym for the German "Kot". And that makes a LOT of sense.

Hard economy trumps sentimentalist patriotism any time. Or when did you see the last US-Flag-flying, "U - S - A" chanting redneck reach for something "made in the U.S.A" when there's a Chinese knockoff available that's 10 cents cheaper?
I'd deem it unlikely that they're too stupid. But nobody pays a few millions for your team to spend 2 years to build a SCADA system which is then not even on par with one that they could simply buy.
If you look for the reason for this failure, don't look at the engineers. They're not the one making economy decisions.
Do you have a FAINT idea what a 0day, remote code execution bug in IE sells for?
Hey, 1995 Spartan would have been an awesome cutting-edge browser!
So do I. Without MS, I'd probably be out of a job.
Seriously, people. MS is a lifesaver for me. And everyone else in IT security.
Well, technically they even cannot. Cloud technologies discriminate by workload, not by content. How and where something is served depends on how it fits into the load balancing, not on some arbitrary decision on what traffic is agreeable.
Before you go on hyperboles, please at least have a faint idea of the technology you're trying to slander. Without, it makes you look like an idiot.
Not really. Besides, it's the prerogative of the person holding the rights to the work if and whether he wants promotion.
There are many justifications that I can't write a simple comeback to, but this ain't one of them.
Why is protecting that artists' works more important than the protection of free speech? Because that's essentially what this law, and its implementation by Sky, very obviously shows.
