I guess way down deep I'm a Birther....

..although it isn't immediately clear to me how this is an ideological issue

I don't care what your politics is, you get to consider the facts of a situation and draw your own conclusions

My initial reaction was to a story Dale posted that suggested that she was shot after getting out of the car

It also said she was unarmed

I get that they were pissed at her for the reckless driving

But I don't see how she would have posed a risk if out of the car, I don't get mowing her down

YMMV......

In 20 years or so we reach the human singularity. When that happens, AI will be able to take all the information in the world and build upon it in a straightforward way including building things like quantum computers that then multiplies its capabilities by trillions.

And all the while, the entire exercise will be growing exponentially.

I think we were born a tad too early.

I know few have really thought where this information age it taking us.

I am certain this process has happened billions of times already, so the results of that process has to exist in the very fabric of the universe.
