...or you could of course just be complete idiots.
So what's wrong? It's one thing to accidentally have (things that can be seen as) sexist texts in a product but the idea that correcting that is somehow wrong is unbelievable idiotic. There is no logical reason to resist the changes which leads to the conclusion that the person in question either is someone that want more control of the project than is reasonable (complaining and blocking edits just to be in control) or that he is indeed sexist.
As for you and your coworkers the only remaining reason to be upset is if you are sexist idiots.
Logically $100000. Decimal commas are used in a lot of places.
The singularity? While a religion with unrealistic ideas it's still mostly based on science.
*Sigh* A katana is a slicing instrument for meat and isn't designed for or intended to stop another sword. Doing so is an excellent way to destroy a very costly weapon, the edge would be chipped and the spine bent.
The same applies to almost every kind of edged weapons - including something sturdy like a broadsword.
Make that 10-20 years in a hot environment (~60 degrees Celsius). For most intents and purposes flash is a non-volative memory but yes, some applications must treat it as a type of dynamic memory.
Exactly. Depending on how one defines computer there have been analog machines with misc. mechanisms long before the Eniac. Decimal machines of different complexities was created 1600-1900.
Even if one uses a definition closer to a modern computer the Zuse V1 (later renamed Z1) was working in 1938 and used binary representation with floating point numbers.
As nuclear weapon constructors aren't stupid per definition all active weapons shouldn't be too big - it would just be a waste of plutonium.
Maybe you should inform yourself what a Turing test actually is? Eliza didn't pass it nor would a normal chatbot - unless there is true intelligence behind it.
The problem with the Turing test is that is hard and most ordinary people would probably fail it.
Bullshit. AI is AI, not expert systems as was popular for your time period. The idea that a complex expert system would suddenly become intelligent was a theory that have been thoroughly tested - today there are expert systems with more rules and faster inference processing than even beyond the wildest dreams of those AI researchers.
The working of human intelligence is still not fully known, the definition of intelligence is still not agreed upon. One thing is sure though - expert systems aren't intelligent even compared to a very young child or e.g. a rat.
Then you have a wild imagination. Quantum computers are still finite state machines, a subset of the general computer model A.K.A. Turing machine. General programming languages targets that general model and so quantum computers will still use standard development tools and techniques.
I think the AC is talking about beat frequencies...
None. But there are many conductors instead.
Any circuit design must contain at least one part which is obsolete, two parts which are unobtainable, and three parts which are still under development.
