> When Son spearheaded the $31bn purchase of Arm, he saw it as a wager on the future of the entire technology industry, which was crystallising at that time around the IoT concept. He proceeded to push the executive team firmly on the course to designing chips for this future of machine connectivity.

Son did not push anyone, ARM was IoT crazy before it was purchased: http://web.archive.org/web/20151006082751/http://www.arm.com...


Overall I do not think that the result is surprising. The large genetic deviations result in deviant behaviour and in deviant face. On the other hand it is next to useless for law enforcement since if it is applied to general population the majority of criminal-like faces belongs to law-abiding people.

The fact that we do not like the result does not make it false. For validation, see page 4, where they checked that a random labeling of images does not produce such a good distinguisher.


In the full-scale war the fighter planes are useless cause the air bases and carriers will be nuked out in the first hour. So the reality is that the planes are not made for fights, they are made for parades.


Quite. Carriers are useless in a war of equals. They will be at the bottom of the ocean in the opening minutes of the war.

But they are brilliant against barbarians, which seem to be our main enemy these days.


In a full scale nuclear war most things would be useless. The US however has managed to use it's planes a fair bit since WW2 though and not just for parades.


Even SU-27 had passive locking. If pilot can see, electronics can as well.


Solaris 9, RHEL 5, Windows XP Since it is not connected to Internet, there is no point to risk an upgrade. Newer versions of Windows take more resources.


"10 Things You Didn’t Know About Russia’s Anti-Gay Law & LGBT Rights" on page 7 is a good summary
