No way! HOLY SHIT!! Wow!

You'll be too intellectually lazy to learn either one of those things so it seems a moot point.

Have you seen the British comedy show The League of Gentlemen? There's an episode with a sketch (also in their live show) about "death by Mau Mau." Except in that joke its about shoving fruit up your butt.

No one at Disney was put off at the thought after watching the animatronic Eagans in Severence?

Maybe this is a first for a quantum computer, but true random quantum-generated numbers are not new. idquantique makes quantum random number generators that fit in a PCIe slot. I own one.

1. Print out Orbans face.
2. Make two holes for eyes.
3. Make two holes for some string.
4. Make Orban the happiest most out loud and proud gay rights marcher ever.

Why have a human pick from the suggested comments? Just have Instagram automatically pick one for you and post it. What? Oh THAT would make it seem somehow meaningless?? We sure wouldn't want that to begin to happen.

I was really worried we'd run out of microplastic pollution once we ran out of petroleum!

It sounds like a boolean or a bitmask that was checked in random places in the code that would bypass stuff that needed to get done and given a harmless sounding name... this doesn't take a hacker genius.
It does take a genius to realize this qualifies as a KilL sWitCh!!!

Let me cheer them on...

Break! Break! Break!

Nobody at Apple is irreplaceable. When any employee leaves, they are forgotten about within a week. A lot of people like to pretend that the people matter, but Apple is just a cash machine.

"For example, I prefer doing math in Chinese because each digit is just one syllable, which makes calculations crisp and efficient."

Damn you, seven!!!

They think they can cut costs by laying off their lowest performers? Imagine the bigger savings if they just lay off their highest paid employees instead! Give everyone else in the company a chance to step up to a new challenge. Plus, if the laid off employees are REALLY worth what they were paid, surely they will start a new genius venture, and that creates a healthier marketplace of ideas that benefits everyone!

Imagine going back in time 20 years and handing this headline to your past self.

At least if AI codes in current languages designed for human use, there's hope of it being legible to human auditing (careful of any obfuscation trickiness). But if humans, or AI, design a new language to write code in that's more efficient for the AI to process, at the cost of legibility to humans, then who knows what the code is really doing or how its doing it anymore? I suppose comments in code arent needed by AI and they could choose to work in a language thats even designed to be unintelligible to humans.
