I was going to reply earlier, but decided to put it off a bit.

I thought I might answer it tomorrow - if I can be bothered.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Why do it tomorrow? I'm sure it can wait until the day after.
|
|
|
|
|
I don't want to commit myself that far ahead...

I have been wondering about all the obsessive smartphone users on the train, in restaurants and elsewhere. How do they know there is a human communicating with them?

As long as it full of crap - it's human
When you stop to understand it - it's AI
when you stop receiving - it's OFF

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Because no AI would waste its time. The only place you'll find "smart" is in the "smartphone", certainly not the user.

Indeed. Stephen Hawking has already stated the same: http://www.businessinsider.com.au/stephen-hawking-on-artificial-intelligence-2015-5[^]
With the normal distribution of intelligence it is possible that many smart devices are already way smarter than their human hosts. I am serious. When you look at the decision making capabilities of many devices and the fact that many seem to rely on this capability it is clear that the human is almost redundant. The devices are simply colonising their human hosts.

I love this story
No ad intended!
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");

YES. We have for all and everything an own word. it's much much more precise than english. i don't need to build sentence with 10 words to explain something, in germany we say 3 words and all is clear.
And thats the reason why my english is not the best.

|

Yes, but each of those German words is 37 syllables long!
(a very, very long time ago I had three years of German language classes in high school)

ja, ich auch, aber das ist nicht so gut
(ok, I 'survived' (*1) for a week in the wilds of Germany last year where not everyone spoke English)
(*1) didn't get locked up or lynched

Ten years ago I was sent to Germany on short notice to help out at a trade show. I was amazed at how much of my German vocabulary came back.
Of course, my accent was atrocious...

yeah - accent  but I was there when the germans were playing off in the final of the world cup soccer, so they were very forgiving
