@Broadway0474- I think you have them right. It saddens me that technology is a battleground for political ideaology. It is best when it is above that, but sadly nothing is anymore. We can't even agree on basic science as...

@BroadwayPoint taken, the insurance companies are saved! But if the city that hosts Broadway were destroyed, there wouldn't be enough money in the world to compensate the various stakeholders. But since you bring up drones,...

@Mak63- I like to think of it less of a catch and more as a check on our humanity. I think technology should be beautiful and attractive or else it isn't worth it. Also, I love me a little marketing raazzle dazzle. :)

The point which are shared above are really beneficial for IT parents to take care of their baby. I like the point where you have mentioned of applying cameras in baby's room so as to keep an eye on her .

This might be an oversimplification, but I've always felt like anything we program would have our general respect for life as a part of the programming. Or that, at worst, we could create the "good" AI to fight the "bad"...

@Broadway0474- I generally agree with you. Spacewar just sounds like a quick way to kill more people faster. All that stuff falls back to earth eventually. Also, I suspect if there is intelligent life out there (I know I'm...

I actually fear the cooking robot the most. They showed it youtube videos and it learned to cook. what if they showed it sniper training films instead?
In reply to: The Cooking Robot is Deadly
@Charlie- It also implies that someone has that right. Just because we're the only people to land there doesn't mean we own the whole darn thing. The land mass of the US isn't consider that of the earth bound part and the...

@jastroff- Seems like the military/defense/aerospace world is still driving the tech. I think what is changing is when we find out about it. Think about how long the stealth bomber was a secret versus these Darpa project...

@whoopty- Not sure this will create jobs, but in the end, it might not be bad. I think in the future the only job will be robot repair. I'm OK with that. Give me a robot to cook and clean and fan me on the beach and I'm...

Great, now computers can do stuff i did at 5 years old. Wake me up when they can beat me at Call of Duty. :)

@Nemos- I can't say I'm worried about my freedom so much as i'm wondering if making machines that think like us is just a bad idea. We're actually really lousy thinkers. I wish we'd create machines that thought like someone...

Seems like just a few months ago biometrics were getitng discarded as a not a very useful security measure. If your retina file gets compromised, for instance, you have no replacement. What's changed that we're back on b...

So in the all the discussion of Fog computing, some of the other interesting technologies are getting lost here. I have a simple quesiton about 3-D displays. How much does the IT department really need to learn about that?...
In reply to: 3-D Displays
@zerox203- I have to say, I hate fog computing, too. But you're right. It is funny how the wording matters to people. If we called it mesh computing or point to point computing would it really change our attitude, or are...

@Kelly22- I can't imagine a watch would get anyone but the usual fans all that excited. I'd like to think they've got something else, especially since they are admitting they keep having to take features out of the first...

@Broadway0474- Well, i think if you couch it as prioritizing, it looks like smart business. But I'm sure to some it looks like whining. Personally, I think if a person can't tell the difference it is either because you have...

I love that Knack found something that seemed so foreign to its normal business and embraced it. Many companies don't have the guts. This is like Amazon getting into the cloud business. Knack (and Amazon) built an expertise...

@asksqn- Well, I suppose it is true of nearly everything that exists that regulation or careful use is required. We regulate food, water, air, and nearly every other basic human thing. So fine, we will regulate drones. But...

InformationWeek Tech Digest, Dec. 9, 2014Apps will make or break the tablet as a work device, but don't shortchange critical factors related to hardware, security, peripherals, and integration.
Building a Mobile Business Mindset
The differences between mobile apps and conventional Windows clients, or even web applications, are far more than skin deep. Yes, the touch-versus-keyboard interface, APIs, and programming languages are new, but that’s arguably the easy part. There are profound differences in how the two are built, the functionality each prioritizes, the release cycles on which they’re developed — even the attitudes, values, and work styles of the developers creating them.
