The forecasters don't know where you'll be when it matters. That's why it's your job to look up the data yourself.

Why do you say that? TV forecasts are averages over a region. That's by design. Do you really want the TV weather presenter to rattle off rain and temperature and humidity numbers for every block in every city in the whole state you live in? No, they just give indicative data. It's not going to apply to you. It's a guideline.

If you want to know if you're going to be rained on, go get a radar image map with rain data updated every minute, and work out if the clouds will cross your street at the exact moment when you will be standing on it.

The basic rule is: don't do the crime, if you can't do the time.

Copyright exists, for better or for worse. It's no excuse to claim you can't determine copyright attribution because of the scale of your stash. This is true for anyone, whether you're a company looking to infringe for profit, a nonprofit looking to infringe for humanity, or a person looking to infringe for personal convenience.

Go kick the butt of the supreme courts who impose rules if you don't like the status quo, or go live in a country where the rules are different. There are some.

All you achieve when you act like a scofflaw and a whiner is that people dismiss you, quite rightly. Generations before you managed to follow the rules,. The problem isn't the copyright law per se, the problem is you are not doing your part in changing the law, citizen. It's your job to leave your country a better place than you received it.

There used to be a time when Java had support everywhere. It seemed unstoppable, there was so much community support.

Then it faded (etymology: early 14c., "lose brightness, grow pale," from Old French fader "become weak, wilt, wither," from fade (adj.) "pale, weak; insipid, tasteless" (12c.), probably from Vulgar Latin *fatidus, which is said to be a blending of Latin fatuus "silly, tasteless" and vapidus "flat, flavorless.")

That's hilarious, they don't have a *real* military?

I don't know what you consider a real military, but assuming that you think the US has a real military by your standards, I'll point to Afghanistan, where a rag tag of AK-47 wielding militiamen just kicked their ass out of the country. Same in Iraq, which caused a 10-year trauma in the US population as evidenced by the amount of movies produced about the conflict aiming to heal the psychological wound and the political impact. Same in Vietnam, where the troops ran away after years of misery. Note that the French got beaten in Vietnam too, and the Russians got beaten in Afghanistan.

War is not about technology. It is about strategy, tactics, destruction, and politics. It is about bullying the other side into submission, and then punishing them after they give up. Last man standing. There are no other rules.

Why not? Life is too short to worry about what your CEO is promising, and he's the one being paid to take the risk. Do your thing, polish the resume, and keep abreast of new technology trends.

You're assuming AI version number matters. It does not.

Programming is an exercise in turning imprecise human language into a precise domain specific language. Once the problem has been translated, it can be solved within the paradigms of the chosen language, but the bugs cannot be detected without knowing the original intent which is not encoded.

An AI with current technology cannot take the DSL solution and judge what the original intent of the solution was. That requires knowing what the problem was, which isn't fully specified, merely partially translated by programmers into the DSL that the AI might see. The translation is done by humans with expertise that the AI doesn't have, because the AI training data is always limited to actual DSL solution snippets from many unrelated problems, whereas the human programmer is given the real world problem to work through.

TL;DR. If you can't solve the problem by piecing together existing code from GitHub, then no AI can solve the problem. Worthwhile software is not simply pieced together from a thousand GitHub snippets

He's a tech illiterate poser. Talks a lot about tech topics and science buzzword bingo, which got people excited in the early days, and it's part of his brand. But turns out his knowledge is only skin deep, he uses words without understanding what they mean, and he likes to take credit from underlings. He also lies a lot, and he's a deadbeat dad.

Look it up.

It's not like Bill Gates did a lot of marketing for PC-DOS 1.0, though.

Sometimes countries send their people into other countries to do certain things, like spying on industrial competitors or assassinating people deemed unworthy of a trial. In such cases, the people who are sent necessarily use the IT systems of the host country to blend in and not cause suspicions.

I think Nvidia should buy itself. At $5 Trillion valuation, the combined company would be worth $10 Trillion.

I'll believe it when Teslas can actually self-drive like you promised.

Please read up on Conway's game of life so that you can contribute something useful to this discussion next time. The Game of Life is an example of a simulation system with low complexity which produces behaviour that is more complex than the system itself.

Whoa buddy! I hope they didn't cite Jesus. That would be a direct -1 from me. Jesus was no physicist.

Nonsense. Censorship is neither evil nor good. It's a tool. In the west, we call it "filtering". Meta does it. Google does it. Twitter does it. Your spam filter does it. Filtering can take the form of hiding things you don't want to see. It can take the form of deprioritizing it, so it's still there but you're not likely to see it. It can take the form of having special rules in place in an office to prohibit saying certain things that could cause offense. It can take the form of changing the TV channel when there's adult content because the kids are watching. It can also take the form of kicking people out of a room if they don't support the troops. It can take the form of cutting off democrats when they open their mouths. It can take the form of defunding NASA climate programs just to hide the public statistics on natural disasters. It can also take the form of fining people who say things in public that cause harm to the government's policy goals. I could go on. Censorship is merely a tool, it's neither good nor evil. The world is a complicated place, step away from the blue pill.
