People are getting wise to the extremist environmentalists.
I'm 100% behind reduced pollution, more renewables, and all that jazz.
I'm also realistic. Want to reduce petrochemical use, you had better accept nuclear!
There's not really a third option. Pretending there is just causes problems.
Three Mile Island?
conveniently ignoring the fact that the majority of alternative fuels available produce DRAMATICALLY more carbon AND particulate emissions.
The net effect of this will be to make poor people poorer.
What I hate about these types of arguments:
They ignore the fact that grazing animals can produce edible food from land which cannot be used profitably for anything else. Think about all the sheep, goats, and cows living on steep mountainsides.
They ignore the fac that plowing, tilling and fertilising all have an extreme impact on wildlife. AND conveniently ignore the fact that to feed the planet on plants alone would require EVEN MORE LAND to be plowed, tilled, and fertilised.
This kind of idiocy is annoying as fuck. I really wish someone would educate these jerks.
Exactly.
If the solution to the problem is to try every random sequence of code for suitability, that's not AI, that's just brute force and doomed to failure for novel problems
For example, flying from Munich to almost anywhere in the USA requires transfer at either Frankfurt, Paris, Amsterdam, or London. None of those are more than an hour flying time
When you can adequately define hate speach maybe we have something to discuss.
My opinion is that it doesn't exist.
Usually a percentage of the Dead Wood leaves naturally. Either they retire, get sick, or, somehow get another job.
BUT, when you need to downsize quickly, this is what happens. I don't know Google's turnover rate, but, my guess is, based upon their size, it's 5%. If they need to shed another 6% that means they are really looking to get rid of about 10% of their employees.
That's a lot of people.
Seriously, the whole fucking point of a bicycle is to get some damned exercise.
We're raising a bunch of fatties.
Indeed!
Every day in the summer I see at least 3 or 4 people sitting in parked cars, idling. The A/C is on, with the windows up,. Yet, outside is comfortable. The only reason they need to run the AC is because they're sitting in the car!
WTF is up with that ?
Are people really that stupid ?
Actually, there are plenty of jobs where skilled workers earn a very respectable living.
Gas Fitter, Electrician, Plumber, Bathroom/Kitchen fitter
These are hands-on jobs, with job satisfaction, AND, you pretty much determine your own hours.
Eh' hem !
One Smart Fellow

They smelt fart.
Don't read too much into aliases.
My original Slashdot username was SomeDumbBumb. But, I couldn't recover the password - some time around the Y2K chaos - so I just created a new user.
Well, almost.
Science deals with our perception of reality. That's not the same as facts.
1==1 is an axiom.
Two objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time is our perception.
Kim Kardashian has a fat ass is a fact.
Joe Biden is a senile fool is truth.
Even Australia!
If there's one thing guaranteed to fuck up your currency, it's Government committing to an impossible goal, then following through and trying to make it happen through "Stimulus"
Neutrinos have bad breadth.
