To help with his class this year, a Georgia Tech professor hired Jill Watson, a teaching assistant unlike any other in the world. Throughout the semester, she answered questions online for students, relieving the professor's overworked teaching staff. "I'm sorry, student. I can't answer that question."

Tooling in the data science community evolves quickly, and picking the right tool for a job — not to mention a career — can often be divisive. Open your heart; Scala wants in.

In yet another sign of a slowdown in the booming Bay Area economy, tech layoffs more than doubled in the first four months of this year compared to the same period last year. And more layoffs are ahead 
|

|
|
Yet companies are hiring outside the bay area. Are companies finally coming to their senses and moving out of one of the most expensive metropolitan areas in the world?

Most of the cost of living there was caused by the high-dollar salaries being paid.

An SUV tucked away in the shadows of the Philadelphia Convention Center’s tunnel bears the ubiquitous logo for Google Maps, and mounted on top of the vehicle are two high-powered license plate reader cameras. Pay no attention to that government spy truck behind the curtain.

Wendy's said that self-service ordering kiosks will be made available across its 6,000-plus restaurants in the second half of the year as minimum wage hikes and a tight labor market push up wages. The first guy through the wall always gets bloody.

Yep, liberals who hike the minimum wage for votes only serve to have the voters they are pandering to loose the jobs they once had due to the fact that they now cost too much to employ. Simple supply and demand which the Liberal Socialists ignore out of necessity for power.

This is all about to happen in the UK too with the new 'living wage'.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Oregon ISP Bend broadband (see our user reviews) has long been at the forefront of the rush to impose usage caps, and now they're at the forefront of another trend in metered billing: removing caps if users bundle phone and TV services. "Honey, we need to get this cable TV package so we can was as much digital TV as we want!"

FBI Director James Comey is upping the ante on the government's war on encryption. During a news conference Wednesday, Comey not only said he expected more litigation over the issue, but he claimed that encryption was an "essential tradecraft" of terror groups like ISIS. Dear Police and FBI: If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear. Sincerely, The General Public.

Investigators looking into the hacks on the Bangladesh Bank and wider SWIFT network of financial institutions have said that some of the evidence found so far suggests that some software found in the Sony hack investigation was also found on the bank’s systems. This is why I secretly keep my money buried under the rock in my backyard. Oh wait ...

Lumps of rock flying through space could cause catastrophic damage to our planet. What could we do if we found one on a collision course? Step 1: Put hands in air. Step 2: Run around randomly, screaming.
OK, that wouldn't stop it, but that (and a few [dozen] beverages) would be my contribution.

It depends. If it's almost as big as the Earth, I would move to the opposite side of the planet and wait for the Earth to start traveling the universe.

Not spending enough time in the Land of Nod could turn you into a literal sleepyhead, reducing your cognitive capacities to the point of being “functionally drunk,” according to the co-author of a new study into sleeping patterns around the world. Which is my excuse for that code I wrote last night
