Re:Tunnels are our Transportation Future on Tuesday August 03, 2021 @05:28PM (#28054458)
Is it plausible to build a tunnel from China to the US through the ocean? Just a wild idea.
Here's the thing. Creativity is measured by a subjective human mind. If you can simulate the mind's current state using AI (with relevant inputs), you can probably measure creativity.

For some reason, we humans glorify certain things like creativity, attributing those to some insurmountable human ability. As a scientist, I don't find anything extraordinary in this. Just a simple ability to create. After all, who is is the judge? Ourselves!

Considering that renting an Azure will run you about $160 per month if ran 24/7, this is a good price for a cloud computer.
Thank you for the comment. GDPR does indeed have vague elements in it. But, as an advice to those who ventures into a similar industry, I'd advice consulting with a lawyer.

Re:Ask HN: Why aren't images used as passwords? on Sunday July 25, 2021 @12:22AM (#27946697)
A picture of a wolverine is used for an encryption algorithms. As for passwords, my guess is that they aren't practical, because any degradation to the picture will alter the bits and invalidate its purpose.
It will probably be the same as it is now. Between Fall to the Spring period the number of viral diseases rises, so there might be higher restrictions again.

Re:Ask HN: Did you quit smoking cannabis? If so, why? on Tuesday July 20, 2021 @12:28AM (#27890074)
I don't smoke pot, but some of my coworkers did and they were always happy. Can anyone comment is this happiness is due to pot or they were just happier people.
Thanks for sharing. I guess it makes sense to spend the extra money for a good customer service tool.
