  1. This is Sploid which is one letter of from sploit, as in exploit which is what Gawker Media does for a living: exploiting other people’s misery for fun and profit.

It may have been a controlled det, but that doesn’t mean the SVBIED operator wasn’t still inside. It wouldn’t be the first time that’s happened.

Turing machines transition through a series of finite states based on input. Neurons are infinite state machines. There are things that the human brain can compute that Turing machines - by the definition of the man that they are named after - cannot compute. These limitations do not preclude sentience and self

These are general computing topics. They have applications in AI, but that does not mean that they only have applications in AI.

I said nothing about AI. You can disagree with me all you want but I’m just repackaging stuff Turing laid out in his paper On Computable Numbers, With an Application to the Entscheidungsproblem. This isn’t a matter that’s up for philosophical debate.

They don’t “see” like we do and they never will. The only thing a computer sees is one number at a time, each number pushing it into a different state. It’s only because computers can move from one state to the next extremely rapidly that one can be convinced of the falsehood that a computer can perceive of the world

It was a good episode, but frankly it had me worried. They just burned through half a season’s worth of plot in a single episode. I know that if they don’t bring this show to an eventual end they run the risk of M*A*S*Hing it (having the show last longer than the historical period it is supposed to represent) but

In the US, there is no such employee. In Japan...

Initial R&D was done in Japan, but manufacturing of the prototype and all flight testing was done in North Carolina.

1993 Honda Civic DX $4,500 OBO: 2 new tires (rear). New hood. Few minor dings and scrapes. Free boot.

It’s never stopped them before.

In the US you’d have to get a high performance rating and a tailwheel rating as well. It wouldn’t hurt to get an IFR rating, but strictly speaking you don’t need one just to fly this.

That Black Guy, eh?

It’s not so easy being a real hero and a green bean.

“It’s the Rocketeer!” “The Rocka who?” “The Rocketeer!”

I imagine that the Chinese Ministry of Regulation is similar to their Ministry of Peace or Ministry of Truth.

U WOT M8? I’LL SMACK YER GABBER! SWEAR ON ME MUM!

Silly car, you’re not an airplane. Get back on the ground.

The seat bolstering says “yes” to sporty, but the CVT with fake sequential shift mode replies with a resounding “NO!”

I couldn’t possibly punch an Aveo in the face. It’s like being angry at a mentally handicaped kid because it had the misfortune of being the product of incest.
