Except what will happen is Uber will come out and say that after an internal investigation, they found a few rogue employees had the program up on their own time, and Uber has now put a stop to it, etc.. It's how these things work. It's really no different than getting cut off while driving, tracking the plate number through the DMV for a physical address, and then setting up your stripper friend to show up while during their family dinner.
We've all done that.
Leave it to the Armchair Slashdot Scientist crows dismiss a study and throw in their own contrary opinion.
You assume the body can process as much glucose as you can feed it, which simply isn't true. There's a point where any glucose beyond this threshold is "wasted" for the purpose of positive development, but it does still get processed (into fat). Put another way, the a child's body is a machine that can process 100 units of glucose (arbitrary number) at any given time, 80 of which go to the brain. If you feed it 120 units of glucose during that time, it still only processes 100. Again, 80 goes to the brain, 20 goes to other uses, and the excess 20 probably goes to the gut.
Not quite what's happening here. These aren't people just copying designs. They're usually trying to pose as the original work, including the developer name, to trick people into installing their version.
What generally happens is a developer might spend "years" on several different games/apps, with each probably benefiting from lessons learned from the previous ones. Eventually, one of the games finally breaks out gets popular. Since we're talking about very simplistic games here, it's not at all difficult for someone else to just copy what they see working.
The problem here is that these knockoffs aren't even trying to pass for unique games. Most even try and copy the developer name, counting on a certain percentage of people to download and install it thinking it's the "real" version.
Just wait to see if the cast members are replaced or not.
That you've been dreaming of for the last ten years. I personally want my console to play games very well, not do lots of media stuff OK. I have a PC for a reason.
He also invented "Artificial Intelligence engines" whatever the hell that means.
Having blobs of liquid metal flowing to the heart seems like a show stopper to me. I'm intrigued by the old-school-mad-scientist aspect of this idea, but the potential risks seem a bit serious.
Just because you can doesn't mean you should. 30 years ago, applications were built with long life-spans in mind, so dropping into very low-level code could make financial sense. Today, programs are generally designed for adaptability and compatibility. The target is constantly moving for the vast majority of applications out there. Dropping into assembly rarely makes sense anymore, because the mantra is "good enough" rather than "best" because even the "best" won't stay that way for long.
Of course, different industries will have different mileage. If you do most of your work for embedded devices or industry-niche things like robotics or satellites, then by all means dive into the 1's and 0's.
No, Jobs alienated himself from his peers and spent the next few decades doing acid while Apple ran itself into the ground. Meanwhile, Silicon Valley was already establishing their reputation for pushing boundaries, engaging in barely-legal business practices, and working to change the industry as fast as possible.
Jobs came back from his acid trip and turned Apple around, but the industry's attitudes and culture were well-established by that point.
If it outputs to 1080p, then sure. Rendering and displaying are two very different things.
If you read closely, monitors and TV's usually word the size in the form of a "class" rather than an exact measurement.
Unfortunately for Sony, the box clearly states 1080p.
