More than that, the graphs aren't clearly labeled, or in some cases they aren't even unit-labeled!

That kind of amateur bullshit is like nails down the chalk board.

The reports of their data loss.

Same problem, only spun around.

I'll buy whatever fits my job requirements. Prior to this discovery, that certainly wouldn't have been Samsung. Now? They get to be considered along with all the other vendors.

Unless that's followed by her resignation, it's a whole lot of horse crap.

I'd love to see legitimate A.I. researchers condemn this kind of hucksterism.

I'd like to see legitimate A.I.s condemn this kind of hucksterism, myself.

This is amazing news. We have, apparently, eliminated low income families with boys!

Half the population down, the other half to go!

But I instantly got excited about Shark Donuts.

mmmm...donuts.

I'm sorry, but web page generation language is "niche"?

I don't necessarily disagree with anything else you said, but I just found that an odd statement considering the ubiquitous of the web in modern times.

Ya, this will end well.

Can't wait to see how these "synergies" torpedo thinkgeek.

Of course we'll act shocked that it ruins thinkgeek.

You can't tell people not to reproduce and you can't kill people to preserve resources and space.

Well, with that kind of negative-nancy thinking, of course nothing's going to get done.

I'm not sure how they hope to contain such a yeast strain. Sure, they can lock it up *now*, but for how long will that last? It'll only take a single corrupt employee, or group of employees, being offered more money than they could ever hope to make in several lifetimes. Then it's out in the wild. Unless they plan on building in some kind of critical vulnerability in the strain, any home brewer can replicate the yeast with ease. Even if they do build in a critical vulnerability, it'll be an "addon" and thus, possible to disable.

I foresee another "War on Drugs" coming, where the objective in unobtainable. Fortunately after the first round of funding, the objective becomes irrelevant ( of course, the cynic in me is YELLING that the objective IS the funding..but I digress ).

You're still not going to fool me. Years ago when my old CRT TV failed, I upgraded to a largish screen LCD. Works perfectly fine, still, even close to 7 years later.

I didn't need a 3d tv, or a 4k later. I really don't want a "smart" tv, despite the deliciously ironic name. I'm not going to upgrade every couple years, no matter what you try.

I half expect "smell-o-vision" next.

...even though this isn't an election year, per se.

Sad that we can only hope for some semblance of our lawmakers actually doing their jobs for the barest fraction of time we pay attention to them doing it.

Fun story; prostitution is likely cheaper than marriage. When you factor in all the crap that comes along with marriage, paying a high end prostitute 4 times a month is usually a cheaper route to take.
