I'm... not sure what I was expecting, but that sure wasn't it.I mean, go do a Google Image search. Just "Burkina Faso."
I was monkeypatching Google maps to make it work in IE6 for years because some of my users' organizations wouldn't allow them to use anything else. Let me tell you about the horrors of government computing.
When I had mine out the only bad part was the pharmacist persistently trying to make small talk despite my mouth being stuffed with cotton and numbed with novocain while I was getting my pain meds. The actual procedure wasn't bad. I took the week off work because I'm a wuss and figured I'd spend the week only leaving the bed to take another oxy, but it didn't end up hurting so I spent the time writing a path tracer and rendering cheesy fractal landscapes out of boredom instead. From posts you've made before, you've almost certainly had more unpleasant experiences in doctor's offices than this is going to be.
We only deploy the Hubski police for Daft Punk posts.
The only reason I get out of bed before noon is a daily conference call for work. I wake up 10 minutes before it starts, feed the cat, call in, then go back to sleep.
Freudian typo?Morons are for some reason a big target. When I was in SoCal, the mormons started to flood in
I'm drinking NyQuil like water because if I have to be sick I don't want to be conscious for it.
Looks like Texas is sticking with the slug.
"I have a very big button. I have the biggest button." "My missile has infinitely long range." International relations in 2018, ladies and gentlemen.
CV Dazzle isn't a good alternative, but it's a better alternative.
If this is turning into a people you know running for Congress thread, send in the clowns.
I wonder how much is "I can say these things, because I am retired" and how much as "I can say these things for former colleagues, because I am retired."
There coudn't be too many debt collector callcenters. Crowdfunding a DOS attack on a good portion of the industry would probably be doable given a list of numbers.
I got far more trick-or-treaters than expected and ran out of candy, so I gave out comic books towards the end of the night.
... and they went to great lengths not to hurt people. The only people the Weather Underground got killed were some of their own accidentally blowing themselves up.
There are a handful of hubskiers I know of, myself included, who have done/are doing real AI work. I've been trying to ignore this dude's threads, but I'll point out that everyone else I know of who knows their shit hasn't bothered to comment in them either. Real-world AI is mostly boring, because things you can automate are always boring. PROFOUND/SCARY AI THING articles are always more science fiction than science.
It's been done, but it's not as useful as you think. The EFF wrote a thing.
First song I've recorded in months.

I got asked to write a rent/price estimator, though not one for use by consumers, back ~2011 or so. I refused because I couldn't spend more than a month on it, it's a harder problem than "I know some statistics and I have a month", and it was so going to come back to bite us. There were shouting matches. You have no idea how satisfying forwarding every post I come across on the Zillow lawsuit to my old boss is.
Foucault: Society imposes the identity of "a homosexual" on people who have sex with people of the same sex, it comes with an awful lot of baggage that has nothing to do with what a person does with their naughty bits. Society's idea of what a homosexual is tells us little about people who have sex with people of the same sex, but tells us things about society. Said: The colonizing west imposes its exotic fantasies onto the colonized east, which have very little to do with life in the east. Society's idea of what the exotic east is tells us very little about the east, but tells us things about society. Judith Butler: Society imposes an awful lot that has nothing to do with plumbing onto {men,women}... Those are all bad summaries, but yes, the essay is either deliberately misleading or there's a whole lot of whooshing in the background.
