...Or rather allow development of much larger AI but regulate the usage in critical situation (politics, health, environment, etc..) in a way that it is evaluable for human to take in consideration of the pros and cons of the effect of the _proposed advice_? The risk is that of having unaware insects (us), who blindly adopt unfathomable reasoning for our mind, and take them as consolidated decisions, without knowing where they lead and _how_.

Strongly agree with the idea that nowadays internet is become very bad. But i strongly disagree with the idea that governments should do something.

Politicians usually doesn't have enough technical background to do anything useful here. They do very little in the "real" world to make it a better place to live, why they should succeed in the "virtual" one?

Internet user should take care of internet with new trust mechanisms, Operative systems should help users taking care of their data. People should return nice and polite.

Netiquette (the hard one of the early '90) should be applied and respected.

probably you are too youn, in the past when internet wasn't so ubiquitus, having a MSDN cd documentation was a live saver. the docs that today have serius content directly descend from that days, the res, as other already said, are just boilerplate autogenerated docs., which nobody maintains anymore because simply the technology is too fast. so probably this doc page abaut usage of DES is directly from 1990 or so... and in that days probably was good enough

while i disagree with EU and i think that goole has full right of sort things inthe way it wants, i also recognize that the "don't be evil" motto are just bullshits

google has the bad habit to sell itself as the saviour, while it is just making its own interests like anyone else... do not hide google...

duke360 | 8 years ago | on: Why is the Internet so Slow?

it it really interesting but simply "ignore the technical challenge for now" makes the Whole discussussion pointless, as the problem here ARE the technical challenges that a zero latency (above the theoretical limit) network implies... Anyway it is good to know the numbers: in my opinion a 37x factor, in this case is not so bad
