    Well if they're like Bose, you'll be fine as long as you don't install their helpful app.

    I could conceive of a high-fallutin' fidget cube for your mind constructed from this technology. I could also see it used for both a lie detector and a biofeedback tool to defeat i…

    If he's from China (and I'm assuming so), I'm not so surprised. It's a status thing culturally. I've had my ideas at work dismissed on the basis of my not attending an Ivy League s…

    Ergo we should immediately arrest all gunmakers because it's hard to think of another use for guns besides killing things or practicing the art of killing things, no?

    GP100 supports FP16 FMAD GP102 supports INT16 and INT8 MAD with 32-bit accumulation Overall, not impressed with Stratix 10. It won't be cost effective, it's not much more power-eff…

    My cat stayed by my side to her last day, whereupon she decided to hide in the box I had prepared for her body a week earlier. She had wasted away to 2/3 her normal weight and was …

    Same thing happened to my cat, I took it to the vet to have a bladder stone removed, and I left with a 2 month terminal cancer diagnosis for her. At least she got a month of life w…

    "so any one client 'firing' you is suddenly not a huge thing since your income is distributed across multiple clients" For whom you have to spend roughly 1/3 of your time on collec…

    Sure, that's possibly true. But if the ensemble of governments planetwide are mostly doing worse than the US(1), then you need to consider it might not be humanly possible to do mu…

    Well yes it is actually, by collecting more data, you are doing a better job marginalizing the distribution of government corruption and waste across the planet. And that can make …

    So what would happen if someone created a youtube account called "NotUCBerkeley" and reuploaded all these videos with their playlists intact? Asking for a friend of course!

    As someone who has early adopted technology since childhood, I'm surprisingly contrarian on this. And it's not the tech, it's the state of society and industry that's making me fee…

    Well, why don't you learn a concurrent language like Go, CUDA, or OpenCL and do something about that? From my vantage point, I remain amazed that people have fled concurrent progra…

    These days, I've noticed hip phone menu systems hang up on you when you try to destroy America chanting this obvious codeword to commence the attack.

    IMO (to be fair, some) CS people became engineering bottlenecks the day the universities switched out teaching C/C++ for Java and Python (IMO the Why Not Zoidberg? of programming l…

    How about unlocking access to ImageNet? Unless one has a .edu account, its overlords seem to ignore requests to access it. Mind you, it's relatively easy to social engineer access …

    If they like your game, they'll turn it back on. And it's nice to espouse principles like yours, really, it's nice, but the spammers don't care about your principles and they're ma…

    True, but more likely I suspect is that in 2018 and beyond they'll offer a navigation option. Then again, they still don't offer blind spot indicators on the corvette so who knows?…

    In my case, I'm still quite happy with the Nav system in my wife's 2009 Rav 4 actually. It works as intended to this day. It's missing some fanciness, but I'm just not about the fa…
