It's a perfectly good bit of code and would work with 100% reliability with the addition of the following:
&& DateTime.Now.DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Tuesday && DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay == TimeOfDay.Morning && Wind.Direction == WindDirection.Following
Slogans aren't solutions.

What more can you ask for from one guy, doing everything himself?
Now it's open source, the hundreds upon hundreds of hours required to take care of tidying up the "rushed" code are available.

Stephen Hawking thinks our days are numbered — unless we find a new planet to live on. Bad news for all of you planning on living 1001 more years
|
|
|
|

You know what, my calculations give us only 998 years, 8 months, 4 days, 3 hours and 2 minutes so I don't know what Hawking is talking about. He's obviously not as smart as he thought he was.
|
|

|

Hmmm... According to my calculations we have way less than that. The main factor being an incoming POTUS with a twitchy Twitter finger.

As smart as Hawking is, you would think...
Hawking, 74, has spoken several times of what he sees as our doomed fate, with the risk of things like nuclear war increasing as well as the threat of global climate change. He has also warned that the development of artificial intelligence could end mankind. Our only hope of escaping these dangers, Hawking says, is by finding another habitable planet. (My bold)
...that he would realize that finding another planet, where we continue with the same destructive tendencies, is not the solution. The solution is to grow as a species so we fix these problems on the planet we have.
Or, just ship all the politicians, greedy CEO's, and general idiots, and particularly He Who Will Not Be Named, off planet. Preferably to a planet without an atmosphere.

Wait. What?
I believe scientists don't believe we have a habitable planet in our solar system, right? Well, maybe Mars...but it sounds like Hawking is saying "find" so we already know of Mars so...
How close is the next solar system?
Is it the alpha-centauri system?
And even within those systems scientists haven't found expected habitable ones and they are so far away we cannot travel to them. So, I'm really not getting Hawking's meaning on "finding a habitable planet".

There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

But yes... I agree with you, the biggest problem / danger for mankind is the man itself.

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?

I have every intention of living 1001 or more years yet. Just waiting for nanotechnology to catch up and the spiritual sciences to work their magick.

We can shorten that time if we try harder.

The team designed an algorithm that learns directly from human instructions, rather than an existing set of examples, and outperformed conventional methods of training neural networks by 160 per cent. Hopefully it will only use its hair detection skills for good

I'm sorry, but that is sooo stupid. Really? Using a pump to drive acid and base chemicals to a pH sensor? Wow, now that's ROCKET SCIENCE!
In his vodka messaging machine, the signal would build up to the point that the receiving end was too saturated with vodka to receive more messages.
In other words, his sensor passed out?
