Well, it seems Apple are actually increasing R&D in AI: http://appleinsider.com/articles/16/10/17/apples-new-japan-r...

Why wouldn't they believe in protecting their customers privacy? In Apple's case there is no conflict of interest to make you doubt that statement. If it came from Google or Facebook I would be more skeptical.

I agree, thinking the politicians can handle anything is naive. Politicians seldom make the situation better, mostly they make it worse while enriching themselves. Socialism don't work in the Nordic countries either. In Denmark where I

"Growth and Peace aren't mutually incompatible aims." No shit, almost all wars start with economic discontent. So all things equal, growth will mean less wars.

Heh, exactly my thought when I saw the headline. As a webdeveloper since 1995, I can only say "phew, finally" - that browser probably cost me 2-3 years of my life, spent hacking various webprojects to make them work in IE.

Hm yeah, I must admit I have a hard time understanding the high pricing on cloud storage. I always end up comparing to something like OVH storage servers, and cloud storage seems way overpriced..

Nice! ZX81 was my first computer. I didn't even have the tape storage. I just typed some program in from a magazine and left it on for a couple of days. I even got the Lampda 16K memory expansion, which was a big external module mount

I wonder why they didn't choose Go in the first place. Both languages were introduced in 2009, I remember evaluating both, and choosing Go because it was clearly superiour when the goal was serverside, speed, stability, maintenance and

So only now that FB is on board it is real? Sony, Valve, Microsoft and god knows what other big companies, who were working hard on VR, wasn't real? I think everyone are pissed off, because they were rooting for the first mover and und

Hmm standing desks have been the standard for office work in many years here in Denmark. You can buy them in any store that sells office equipment. Seems weird that would not be the case in the US. They usually cost from around $300 to $100

What? Wolfram is saying it wouldn't be that hard to build something like Samantha. Did he see the movie? Samantha is like a AI with human level intelligence, only much faster, able to talk to thousands of people simultaneously. That&#x

I did the exact same thing, because of similar views (using the best tool for the job). I also switched to Windows in 1995 or so, and switched back to Mac in 2004.

No, he increased his chance of success by working hard. Luck != success.

by angularly 13y ago
Agreed, no way the equation is 95% luck and 1% hard work - as the article suggests (or as the article quotes a CEO saying). Imho it's more like: 20% is the idea your startup is founded on, 30% stubornness, 30% hard work, and the last 2

Seems to be wildly misleading numbers. Why not use something like gs.statcounter.com to get more correct numbers.

Socialism didn't work the other 15-20 times it was tried as a nations political foundation. But I am sure it will work this time.

No, I think they disagree with Google about how to implement it. I suppose having paid 8+ bill for Skype might have something to do with it.

Thanks for expessing my thoughts eloquently. Technology changes so many things to the better in our lives all the time, where as politics don't make a lot of difference, imho. All idealistic parties in politics tend to move towards the

I am new to Go, but have dived right in and rewriting our current PHP backend in Go. This global state abuse sounds quite important to understand. Unfortunately I do not have any clue what you are talking about. Could you point me in a dire

I dont know about Sweden, but in Denmark, it has been documentet many times, that about 80% of the journalists are left wing. Any way I got a bit off track here. The subject at hand is that number of prisons are being reduced, while the num

by angularly 13y ago
Well thats just like your opinion, and not true at all. The problem in Sweden is the same as in Denmark only worse. The media is controlled by leftists to a degree that almost no rightwing views are ever presented. In Denmark 80% of journal

Yeah I must admit the op article seems to be pure political spin. You can read in the official statistics that number of crimes have absolutely exploded in Sweden since 1975: http://www.d-intl.com/2013/11/08/d

I was hoping you'd come up with some reasonable explanation why it would be ok to drop support for IE9 as well ;)

Do you mean you'll drop support for IE8? XP never supported IE9 as far as I know.

Google is doing the world a big favor with this, forcing people to upgrade to new browsers and defragmenting the web as a whole... not to mention making life a hell of alot easier for all us web developers. Microsoft can just make their bro

You make a good point. It will still be quite appealing to game companies though.

Quite amazing, I predict this will have a big impact on gaming. It basicly means that games can be delivered from the cloud, and it seems quite plausible, this is how games will be delivered in the near future. For the consumer it means you
