If artificial intelligence goes off the rails, which manyphilosophers and tech entrepreneurs seem to think is likely, it could result in rampant activity beyond human control. So some researchers think it's important to develop systems to "interrupt" AI programs, and to ensure the AI can't develop a way to prevent those interruptions. A study, conducted in 2014 by Google-owned AI lab DeepMind and the University of Oxford, sought to create a framework for handing control of AI programs over to human beings. In other words, a "big red button" to keep...

If you need a big red button it's already too late. See also "AI boxing" concept.

i don't get it, why would you pay $80,000 to be unemployed
and screw them for trying to make themselves relevant at every possible opportunity
I'm just starating to learn C. What are some projects that are good to start with? I have read a book on C and I want to start putting the knowledge I've collected to use.

1. Make a doubly linked list.
2. Use the doubly linked list to make a chained hash table
3. Use the LinkedList and HashTable to make a file system crawler, indexer, and search engine. (build a module that reads the content of a file into memory, parses it into a series of words, and builds a linked list of (word, position) information. Build modules that convert a series of these linked lists into an in-memory, inverted index. Use this in-memory, inverted index to build a query processor that has a console-based interface.)
4. Write code that takes an in-memory inverted index produced by (3) and writes it out to disk in an architecture-neutral format. Write C code that walks through an on-disk index to service a lookup. Write a query processor that serves queries from multiple on-disk indices.
5. Implement a multithreaded Web server front-end to your query processor.

Fuck that shit. We need an outspoken anti-augmentation activist like what RMS is to freetards. I don't want our world to look like Deus Ex
If it's just an identification chip, that's just got your employee number or something like that, nothing particularly bad about that.
You'd give away more information about yourself by just having your face visible in public.

They're literally implanting RFID chips in their employees and you're like 'yeh whatever dude welcome to 2016'
The future isn't a boot stamping onto a human face forever, it's a boot stamping onto a human face forever and the face is saying 'dude welcome to CURRENT YEAR this is how things work stop being such a whiner'

how do you replace a string of 4 digits with the same 4 digits, but padded with parentheses?
e.g. 2016 --> (2016)
i know how to find the 4 digit string, but not how to replace it
grep -E -o "[0-9]{4}"
>>54901068
install gentoo
let string = format!("({})", string);
to pad with strings "foo" and "bar"
sed -E 's/([0-9]{4})/foo\1bar/g'
I'm getting sick of Android's bullshit. Between bloatware and Google spying on me, I'm seriously considering rooting my phone and putting Linux on it. Does anyone have opinions about doing this, for or against?

you have it already
Do it. There's no reason no to so nut up OP.

Why don't you just buy a k4000 pro? It's not bloated, it's cheap, it runs smooth, and it's very tough.
Whats the best way to prepare a bootable USB flash drive? I dont like using intermediates like Rufus or YUMIboot, rather would go for a grubloader. What are the necessary steps to making one from cmd?
What game is that OP, and why are you some android cuck?
