The test was run twice and the AI was released both times but the logs of the conversations weren't made public. Also all of the extra protocols weren't in place for either test meaning he could have bought the AI's release. It's an interes

To be fair this site has been around for years. Since 2006 according to whois.

I almost never shut it down. Probably only once a month. Waking from sleep is faster and I don't have to re-open my applications and documents. Shutting it down would save a small amount of power but that's rarely an issue (I'd shut it down

AFAIK a 0-day exploit is an exploit that was found in the wild. No one previously knew about it and there's a scramble to fix it. In a week this exploit will be an "old 0-day exploit" because the "0-day" bit describes developer preparednes

By 2050 the set of all verbs will be pared down to just "hacking" and "trolling".

The content posted on that Facebook page plays into the public stereotype of "programmer". Why would they think any of that would appeal to actual programmers? They must know some, someone had to make their site. It's embarrassing really (l

Keeping these things clean would be very hard. Perhaps a better target market than single-night-guests is medium-term-guests. I could see myself renting one of these things for a month in a city I visit on holiday.

I need glasses but rarely wear them. I'm happy watching 480p most of the time.

It's twisted but I always wonder the same thing. Why don't psychopaths "get" more people? If someone rings my doorbell I answer the door, I expect the person on the other side to be a rational human being. It wouldn't be too hard for the ot

I'm curious, what data did the XML files contain?

I'm pretty unco, I'd probably miss 50% of the time and I don't want to be cleaning up piss at 3 am.

Worry is still warranted. Removing a feature for new accounts is a very clear step in the direction of completely removing the feature. Yes, current accounts keep the feature the whole point of grandfathering features is to eventually phase

The browser will treat the link as a download instead of content. You click on an image link, it downloads the image instead of displaying the image. Seriously breaks using the folder as a simple content server.

I use dropbox a lot to send stuff to friends over IRC. Screenshots, save files, snippets of code. You can put up a HTML page that loads a SWF from your public folder, no worries. I have some music in there too and a HTML music player that p

Phys.org and sciencedaily.com can go too, but they rarely get posted here. They really clog up the science subreddits with wildly hyperbolic titles that get debunked in the first comment.

The fourth year of AppleCare now costs 2 grand since every MBP will now self destruct in the fourth year :)

The specs page says the MBP has 2 ram slots, so it's the difference between 2x4gb and 2x8gb which is about 50 bucks here : http://www.msy.com.au/Parts/PARTS.pdf edit: But looking at the hardware pics it looks like it is single module but

Yes, IIRC it's one of their big selling points. You can easily get your data out and use it for whatever you want. For example I believe many Jekyll blogs use Disqus for comments and periodically grab all the comments then write them into t

I use Flashblock and Do Not Track, one of those messes with Disqus and I never see discussions either.

Sued? No they'd be served with DCMA takedown notices. Which is perfectly fine in my book. If the content creators don't want their content on Imgur then they should be able to take it down. Nothing is preventing people from linking directly

I'm curious about this too. Use something like Tineye and check new Funnyjunk submissions against The Oatmeals image archive. Aside from the hardware it's a tiny amount of work for 1 human to monitor the results.
