For your financial health go find a real accountant to do your taxes. It's worth every penny. It takes a 15-30 minute interview and they take care of the rest. They know about the tax laws much better than you or turbo tax. The year (2003) I switched I had already filled out taxes from turbo tax and was suppose to pay $50, I went to an accountant, spent 15 minutes with him, got him my papers, and got back $1,500 which cost me $150. It was like buying money.

The other advantage is that if you do happen to get audited they are there to help defend you. The reduction of stress by itself makes hiring an accountant worth it.

Get rid of all the windows, it'd probably make the plain safer. Instead add a few hi definition cameras to the outside and allow all the passengers to view them on their seat monitor.

We'll maybe the retailers asked for it??? And the Nigerian scammers???

then let it die.

It's computing for satellite customers not for ground based customers. I believe the idea is to allow space based sensors to communicate with the in-orbit AI to help monitor for interesting events. Getting data from a sensor satellite directly to a ground station is a difficult problem that can delay interesting data by hours waiting for it to fly over a ground station. You are also bandwidth limited which limits how much data you can send. If you can send the data to this cluster on demand for processing in orbit you can analyze it and only send the interesting data back to earth. And since it's a cluster that can talk to each other you can send it from node to node to a satellite that is already over a ground station shortening the data deliver as well.

This was me. I was around 7 or 8 when I saw it. Our family had gotten our first computer. I think a VIC-20 and this movie fired my imagination. It was part of what pushed me into computer science. Loved the movie as a kid. I'm almost afraid to watch the movie again to ruin the childhood nostalgia. Definitely won't watch the sequel. Star Wars was utterly ruin for me by the first sequel.

Also curious what type of scientists. That would be interesting.

Totally agree, don't need a quantum computer to do this. Worked with a company in 2000 which built a random number generator with a laser, a mirror, and a photon detector, we also certified it's results. Not a big deal, been done for decades.

Honestly copyrights need to be a quicker removal from software that is written for a specific hardware platform that is no longer in production, I'm thinking like 5 years.

The mid-range phone is just an 2 year old high-end refurbished phone. It falls into that $200-$400 price range. Advantage is that you can know before hand whether the model is reliable because it's two years old and if it had problems the reviews have plenty of time to reflect it.

No it's not the company's "social responsibility" it's the parent's responsibility to make sure their children are taken care of.

That seems pretty small compared to the physical, mental, social and economic loss that could be attributed to people playing their games in general.

This is the real problem. That it will enable a small set of morally corrupt elites to wage war without any checks. At least in a conventional war you people actually fighting the war act as a partial check. You still have to convince the human pilots, drivers, and operators that your war has some legitimate reason for being fought. Even if the reasons for the war might be stretched, or made up. It still raises the difficulties and slows things down somewhat.
But if AI even enable a very small set of people to wage a full scale war, the wars will happen much more frequently and for much worse reasons.

Domain knowledge is not overrated. Not that you have to know everything about it before hand, but learning the domain knowledge is absolutely key to communicating effectively with your customers, and developing products that meet your customer's needs. Without domain knowledge you just a cog and because of that highly replaceable. When you have domain knowledge you can not only code what is asked, but actually innovate to make tools that the customer didn't know they wanted.

Because that is the culture of Hollywood, dark, depressed... Is it that hard to determine? It's just culture. Yes, I know I didn't read the article, and it's not metaphoric darkness, but...
