Wait! Is this actually ironic?

Yes but if you had more than one control, and one stopped working, wouldn't your first thought be to try the other one? I can't accept everybody just ran about waving their hands in the air shouting "we've lost steering control".
I agree it is reasonable to expect an indicator of which device is active, and preferably each inactive device should have an indicator to show which one was in use, couldn't take more than a few Arduino's and some LEDs. heh.
Good points. Even better would be a button 'take control here'.
Either way the system is too complex. They are confused while just sailing along. Can you imagine if there was a war on, and they were getting shot at or something!
and there is an entire website dedicated to people saying stupid things...i think it is called youtube.
I think you misspelled Slashdot!
Millennium Partners, insists the building is safe for occupancy and could withstand an earthquake.
fine prints: "As long as the earthquake tilts it straight and doesn't make it tilt more in the northwest direction"
Also, building units will automatically convert to underground bunkers in the case of earthquake, making it even safer!
why not err on the side of caution though and try to make changes? because it's inconvenient?
Both candidates are corrupt scum.
Yeah, I think Douglas Adams had it right: "It is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it... anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job."
"50 percent of Note 7 owners likely to switch to iPhone"...
*sigh*
There's a 50/50 chance, though there's only a 10 percent chance of that.
TL;DR? The basic idea behind a simulated annealing algorithm is that it searches for successively better solutions, but occasionally accepts a "worse" one, so as to reduce the possibility of getting stuck in a local minimum when there is a better minimum nearby (sort of like jumping out of a caldera at the top of a mountain, so that you can reach a a better minimum closer to ground level.) As time goes on, the probability of accepting a worse solution is reduced, according to an "annealing schedule" until finally only better solutions are accepted.
Not being an expert on either, this sounds a little like fuzzy logic. Am I completely off base?
I knew coming down from the trees was a bad idea.
Never should have crawled out of the ocean!
see what the Union free work place get's you!
Actually, according to this, 90% of China's workers are in a union. The US for comparison is at 12%.
I'd like to know what evidence there is to support this, rather than words on a page ranting about perception. Not that I don't agree caution, it's one thing to make big noise and proclaim persecution when none exists. Show the evidence and remove doubt about Microsoft's intention.
There's none, and in fact Microsoft plans on releasing games on Steam
I've never understood this part of it all, the credit card holder doesn't have to pay, the retailer often keeps the money, so it's a loss for the credit card company, but they never seem to concerned by the losses they take, or at least I never see anyone going into it on the internet or news.
We all pay through the interest rates on the cards.
Seriously.
I don't believe you said that!
Where there's a will, there's a relative.
