what do you think the future of chat is?

I am not an engineer, so I don't know enough about integrating with APIs, but I would think a bot could use natural language to talk to another bot without integrating or even know about the other bot prior to the user needing it. Essentially, the user is talking to one bot that is finding and passing along the message to the other bot and vice versa.

Bot A > finds bot b > adds bot b as friend > asks bot b for a list of a commands > forwards bot b commands to user or interprets the users natural language in a way that maps to bot b's common commands> returns any results or errors and shares whatever relevant data, acting as middle man between user and bot b.

To me this sound simpler to create than a bot that needs to map to every APIs functions, etc... Even with a middleware tool...It still needs to hook into it. However, if those APIs have conversational interfaces, than users can interact with everything magically.

Maybe my lack of tech knowledge has me imagining a utopia that isn't technically feasible...but to me this sounds like a solution that can replace 30% or more of my web and app interactions completely and simplify another 20%.
Guessing - no. And I'm sure it's been that way for many years. So if not money, what motivates a person? The great ones don't do it for the money.
Well, MY 9-yo can tell you how to beat lots of Pokemon gym leaders and Elite fours.
That is not a valid argument, because all animals do not live on mars. Your premises have the wrong type, and you have abused them to reach a fallacious conclusion.

This is what you meant to say:

Suppose all animals live on mars.
Suppose all humans are animals.
Therefore, if all animals live on mars, then all humans live on mars.

This argument passes the type-checking test, and is indeed valid.
The fact that it was interesting is not the part of the comment that implied it was OK. It was the question asked of "Did your read the entire article?", which normally implies disagreement, and the word "but", which sounds to me like a justification.

That is also why I asked what was meant... I didn't want to jump to conclusions in case it was just a miscommunication due to wording.

the funniest thing about tesla is it has spawned all these brand new carguy fanboys who are oblivious to the fact that they are literally engaging in the same inane fanboy arguments that rabid fanboys have been having on the internet for decades now.

Notes from Day 2 of the Powershell Summit
Apple please, please add WebRTC support to Safari. I have a business that relies on WebRTC and not a day goes by where customers don't ask me if it will work on iOS devices. I have to explain the situation all the time. It is expecially hard for clients to understand since apple allows other browsers in the iOS store but they are just wrappers around Safari and have the same limitations.
True, but has there ever been such a drastic increase as jumping up to $15?

Mountain View is expensive, and to many people, boring. SF is at least less likely to be the latter.

Remember also that Mountain View despises mixed use and refused to rezone areas currently designated commercial-only in order to let Google workers live near their jobs. Of course, it also would have meant people who bought in the 70's would have some tiny amount of competition for their asset.

Omg, so sexist, it's this sort of patriarchal rape culture that stops women from becoming co-founders, as they will still be viewed as subordinates to their cismale co-founder partners. This is disgusting. /sarcasm
It is fun to drive but make sure you get a blower. A normally aspirated engine will not have enough power.

"fit and finish" -- the interior trim on one side pillars didn't match (on the other it butted cleanly). Button finish wore off after a short time. And the brakes, timing belt, high pressure fuel pump all wore out rapidly. You could argue that the brakes could be user failure (riding the brakes) except no other car I had had the same problem, and my clutch didn't show the same problem (which is a correlated "naive driver" failure). Rear inside trim (from the back doors -- I have a clubman) keeps falling off.

I only owned two BMWs, though they both had similar problems. Then I picked my dad up at the airport -- turned out he had the same car with all the identical problems. That was the end of it for me.
>The most effective way I've seen work ethic develop in a young person is by real world trial and error. You work hard in an entry level unskilled job, you are rewarded for that work, you develop something akin to self respect, pride, or whatever you want to call it, and that becomes the foundation for the rest of your professional life.

Unskilled jobs and below minimum wage jobs have little to do with either young persons or "work ethic development".

There are tons of 30 and 40 and 50 and even 70 year olds working in such jobs. And lots of young people with excellent work ethic to begin with, often juggling 2 of those to make ends meet.

This is far closer to what's going on out there that Horatio Alger:

Stefan Sagmeister: The power of time off
It's less than 40 miles because most people drive 35 or less in a day. Then its range at 37mpg is about 280 between fill ups. I probably put gas in every 3-4 months when I had mine.

At one point when I was driving the engine came on and ran simply for maintenance because it hadn't been used for so long.

The only time I ever used gas was if I needed to drive out of state or across the state for holidays with the family. I could have bought a Leaf to go 80 miles...and then stop for the day.

The only way I could handle my old SF boss expecting people in the office by 7:30 was by being based in Dublin and only making the occasional trip to SF.

A "US expatriate who has not set foot in the US for 20 years" seemingly understands at some level that a US passport/citizenship confers benefits that are worth retaining. Those benefits are not without cost.
The extreme case of this was the Boxter which was completely outsourced and just badged Porsche. Well that was the extreme case, now it's increasingly common (e.g. Lexus SUV).

The good news is this increases commoditization of the car business.
I'm not sure what this has to do with my comment. Is your point that they should not have bothered to investigate further because they found that there happened to be a TOR exit node? If so, I'm not sure it's a better situation, where the police say "eh, he's probably not trading in child porn himself. We can let this one go." That's just sloppy policing.

The point is not whether he was responsible for the child porn traffic, but whether they have an obligation to investigate, and I think they do. In this case, that means a raid, since it's an individual and not a business (a business would likely have people that would speak out, and individual mean that if he's guilty, there's no reason for him to incriminate himself). Even so, raids on businesses happen as well, when there is a belief a evidence might be destroyed.
The existence of a thorough HIG is one of the things I love about elementary OS as a Linux distro [1]. They take some of flak for looking very similar to OS X, but other distros have taken plenty of cues from Windows in the name of familiarity. At least it's consistent.

It's political newspeak because the large majority of the federal budget is social programs and so is the overwhelming majority of "non-discretionary spending." Excluding it diverts focus away from the primary source of government expenditures.

It's language designed to make a particular thought unthinkable, which is the defining characteristic of newspeak.
Damaging Cyber Attacks Possible but Not Likely Against the US Energy Sector
>an astounding 115,000 of them sent in their deposit before they even knew what the car looked like.

Talk to Porsche enthusiasts who buy GT cars from their motorsport division. They'll view such an ideal as not only normal, but required. The common phrase is, "This is how the game is played."

Want the next GT3 RS (991.2)? Too bad, but you're already too late. Yes, the car will probably not be announced for another 2-3 years, but Porsche dealers/OPCs probably have enough deposits in hands TODAY in which 95% of them are likely spoken for. Second hand at massive premium is your only real chance at one. Hell, add the GT4 (and GT3, of course) to that as well.

Want the RS of 991.2's successor? That you have a chance at. Just get your deposit in today. In five years you'll know what the car is, and you'll have bought yourself right of first refusal. Porsche doesn't care if you don't want it and want your money, because there's already a few people in line behind you.

What is different is this isn't a low-volume enthusiast car. This is a volume seller. This is targeting the 3-series, which moves over 100K units/year in the US alone. As a result, that's what is impressive. It's the game normally played by people wanting hard-edged Porsches, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, McLarens, etc., but for a volume seller.
Wonder Showzen was so incredibly insulting to everything and everyone, I will forever be amazed that it aired at all.
Do you know how it works for mandatory retirement accounts enforced by your host country? China started including foreigners in their SS system, and I have no idea how that money works...I've just been ignoring the contributions (treating them as straight income taxed in full) for now.
What I don't get is how expressing my opinion -- necessarily in multiple comments, as people respond to my initial arguments or misinterpret them and I get back into the discussion, not to mention me being naturally chatty --, makes me "bent out of shape", "so easily offended", etc. over the feature.

How about not making personal characterizations?
Thanks for sharing :)
Exactly. And sometimes those curve balls (like a critical Monday AM deadline) isn't in your control.
It matters on when. Austin is one of the fastest growing cities in the US for this exact reason. Its having a HUGE impact on the price of housing. What I bought in 2009 is now worth double (good for me, bad for new buyers).

We have shit transportation infrastructure & the housing market is (for us) insane.
The point I mean with the kid working at Starbucks is that most wage earners will have a very simple tax requirements. In many countries they won't even need to send in a tax return since it'll be done automatically. If they are a US citizen on the other hand they will now need to employee a specialist tax accoutant to handle tax requirements from the US and put in their paperwork. All to determine they owe the US nothing.

Ted Cruz was born in Canada. HE was a US citizen at the moment of his birth without having set foot in the US. If his family hadn't moved back to the US then he could have grown up in Canada as a US citizen and he would have had to file US taxes once he started making money. All without ever having set foot in the US.
Curious why performance is a big factor for a disassembler?
We're using noise to hide metadata in the Vuvuzela messaging system [1]. Using noise to hide metadata is efficient and gives good privacy (better than Tor-based approaches). We've formalized the privacy guarantee using differential privacy and are now working to make the system more user-friendly and easier to deploy.

Tesla sacrifices classic sustainability, the do-it-yourself attitude, and "openness" of their platform.

I do realize that the Silicon Valley types don't care about this issue, with iPhones behind walled gardens and all that jazz (or at least, SV doesn't seem to care about it anymore... what ever happened to the vision of open source and true ownership?)... but I know plenty of people who are still interested in vehicle with open standards.

Or hell, just a vehicle that can be taken from a junkyard and then repaired in a garage. You're not allowed to take a Tesla from a junkyard and salvage it, not unless you take it to a dealership and have it "reactivated" by Tesla.

I'm not. When they picked up Community for season 6, they did such a bungling of release that most die-hard fans never even saw the 6th season (despite it being great). Yahoo's problem is that they throw too much at the wall and dont have enough bandwidth to follow through appropriately.

Why do you assume there's a comparison? You could view both cohorts as infantile if you wish. The actions of past cohorts don't make the actions of the current cohort any less infantile.
> The only person in the world who can be suspected of having originated that traffic is the person from whose network the requests can be seen originating.

The IP address presumably actually belongs to the exit node operator's ISP. By this logic they should be raiding them instead.

> There's no way for law enforcement to know he didn't make those connections until they investigate

There's no way for law enforcement to know that you didn't make those connections until they investigate. That shouldn't be justification for raiding you, should it?

> If you're going to run a TOR exit node, which you are absolutely free to do, you have to expect this to happen from time to time and be prepared to explain why you are not responsible for the traffic you appear to have originated.

They already knew it was an exit node.

> If standing on principle was free, it would be unremarkable.

That is a very poor justification for unnecessarily making it more expensive.
It does. Dependant changes/commits can be pushed at once, and if they are submitted out of order, they will be queued until the dependant changes are submitted/merged. In recent gertit releases, you can even submit (merge) all changes in a particular topic at once.
Tor network has only become "a thing" (as opposed to US military toy) only in the last few years. Half a decade ago such a log the police saw would probably be a clear-cut case of someone downloading or uploading child porn on the guy's network. Even with Tor being available, it's still worth checking out.
I built Electron's native Windows notification integration and I'd be suuuuper happy about seeing it become a standard Chromium feature.

I see you've never owned a German luxury vehicle.
Oh, I always assumed the WWII munitions caution in eg Germany was (a) general good gun culture (as an extension of `always treat weapons like they are loaded') and (b) a relict of earlier times just after the war.
Presumably you can never know you are clean from this point on. Any state sponsored group that has been in government servers this long will have spread to pretty much every part.

Wikipedia agrees with me:

Double taxation is the levying of tax by two or more jurisdictions on the same declared income (in the case of income taxes), asset (in the case of capital taxes), or financial transaction (in the case of sales taxes).
And is there anything wrong with a small battery that's enough (or nearly enough) for the daily commute, and a gas engine to take you where you can't go?

As stated: the other "electric-mode / gas assist" vehicle is the Prius Prime, which only has 20-mile range. So the Volt is the highest-capacity pure-electric mode vehicle with an on board generator.

From the "Compare with Model 3", these are both electric vehicles that cost somewhere between $30,000 and $40,000 that overall have more than 300-mile range. One uses the common gas station to get there (40-mile all-electric + 400 mile gas generator), the other uses much larger battery packs and is therefore stuck on the supercharger network.

I mean, at the end of the day, they're basically cars. So... yeah. Cars should be compared against each other. There's a ton of options, and the Model 3 is finally at a price range where it can be reasonably compared against these options.

So lets compare. Amirite?

Samsung is working on smart contact lenses, patent filing reveals
Your assertion was based on the flawed premise that police observed a violation of law in this case. I have seen no indication that they saw such. They reportedly acted on a fourth-party tip about a third party claim that an unknown person transferred a file apparently containing evidence of a past crime to that third party's computer. I edited my comment to quote yours in clarification of this.
Those 'meta-blogging' are probably more likely to be resilient to the harassment, seeing it as something they're already fighting.

In technical writing, I imagine you'd just think "I don't want that in the comments [or to deal with moderating them]".

I definitely agree that the answer is to just shut up about being inspiring, and be inspiring. (To any future CS student - not just women/schoolgirls!)
He had come to believe that the arrival of the birth-control pill, in the early sixties, which he’d originally celebrated, encouraged many men to expect sex on demand: “Women had won the legal right to choose but had lost the right to choose the right moment.” He felt that the war between the sexes had escalated and that sexual relations were getting worse, not better.

He maintained that most men are natural voyeurs. “But most women prefer being watched to watching others,” he said, “which may partly explain why men spend fortunes on porn and women on cosmetics.”
Wait, you don't think big companies negotiate lower rates with AWS do you? Oh god that'd be so unfair!
You're conflating a raid with "asking for logs." If the police only asked the exit node operator if they had any logs there would hardly be any objection.

Many TASER darts don't end up embedding properly in the skin, or come out on their own. Patients with excited delirium (a term that may or may not represent a distinct clinical phenomenon from stimulant-induced psychosis, and which may or may not have been invented by people trying to explain deaths occurring in custody) have been known to be "resistant" to the effects of conducted electrical weapons. It's tough to say whether they were functioning as intended in those circumstances or whether people are just ignoring the stimulus in the face of very powerful competing internal or external stimuli, amped up by really powerful and often dissociative stimulants.

I feel for the people that get called to deal with these people. In the ED I have access to drugs that can bring people down fairly quickly if necessary, and teams of people who are used to physically restraining people without hurting them. It doesn't always work the way we want it to, but we can generally get people safe without hurting them. Cops don't have that training or context, and I have a lot of admiration for the ones that can (and many do) deal with stuff like this without hurting people on a daily basis.

Someday we'll just have ketamine blow darts. (Seriously. Maybe.)
