If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

By mimicking the brain functions of mammals in computing, Army scientists are opening up a new solution space that moves away from traditional computing architectures and towards devices that are able to operate within extreme size-, weight-, and power-constrained environments. In related news, I'm probably close to cracking codes too (never going to do it, but I'm close)
Besides, saying "Neuromorphic" sounds supah-smart.

A security report published by Webroot on the malware infections on Windows in 2017 shows some interesting results. Going by the numbers, 63% of all the files were found to be malware in Windows 7 while only 15% were found to be malware on Windows 10. When you set the bar low enough...

Looking past "The Register's" usual hyperbolic descriptions: [^] Quote:
A pair of computer scientists have created a neural network that can self-replicate.
“Self-replication is a key aspect of biological life that has been largely overlooked in Artificial Intelligence systems,” they argue in a paper popped onto arXiv this month.
Does random mutation and selection of fittest really mean any form of reproduction consistent with modern (post-Darwin, post-Gould) evolutionary theory ?

Far out Griff; I never heard of mutation testing; I looked up a few .NET facilities; this text for Stryker [^] caught my eyes: Quote: Imagine a sandwich covered with paste. Code coverage would tell you the bread is 80% covered with paste. Mutation testing, on the other hand, would tell you it is actually chocolate paste and not... well... something else.

Hi Walt, Recent electron microscope studies coupled with AI pattern recognition have discovered that AI asexual reproduction:
1. never uses upper case text
2. involves a prolonged period of virtual-chemical-hormonal foreplay accompanied by what appears to be excessively polite discussion of anything but the approaching act.

The American Heart Association has released results of research that demonstrate a link between consumption of sugary drinks—including soda, fruit juices, and other sweetened beverages—and an increased risk of dying from heart disease. I guess I'm already dead

Use "may" and you can say anything.
I'm skeptical. Correlation does not equal causation. I suspect soda consumption is correlated with other behaviors which cause problems.

Quote: Correlation does not equal causation
This is so true and it is astonishing how often this fact is lost. I once saw someone demonstrate the fallacy of equating the two by writing that there is a correlation between the amount of organic food consumed and incidence rate of autism in children. Sure enough, the graphs of the two are quite similar but does anyone really think there is a causal relationship between the two?
