Yeah, I came here to say that. Just about every story he wrote about Robots is how people are circumventing the laws. In one story, they made robot ships that were instructed to not communicate with other ships, but to destroy them (I think, it's been a while ;). If the ships didn't know Humans were on the other ships, there was no way for them to know they were violating laws and could destroy humans indiscriminately. Also, if you defined "Humans" as beings coming from X Planet, then anyone else was NOT human and if that was programmed in, then the same thing could happen.

I never had an Anxiety Disorder but I had plenty of anxiety. I was very shy as a kid and I hated talking in front of people. I hated doing it in High School but I did learn things. In college I was getting a science degree and I had to give some type of presentation in nearly every class - you have to demonstrate what you know. After doing it so often, I realized the things that made me scared didn't really matter. Now I've been asked on several occasions to run training classes both for clients and internally in my company. I actually really enjoy standing up in front of people - something the 15-year old me would have never guessed. Had I not been forced to do it, I'm sure I would have chosen not doing it. Confronting and working past those fears is part of the process and allowing kid's fears about it to change policy is a complete disservice to them and their future.

Yeah, but the Single-Player campaign kinda sucks - it may be fun to play for a while but it ends up being a let-down. Everyone knows that Multiplayer is where it's at. Especially if you can find a good team - then it's a whole new game.

I second this, I got this book from my son's Book Fair. It allows him to code actual playable games - he loves it. He's not learning actual CODE per say, but he's learning concepts like loops, conditional statements, etc. Scratch is great! Code Your Own Games

It would be absolutely hilarious if this went to court, the court ruled it was a private account, and the next day Twitter blocked the account because of too many abusive language flags.
They could say, "It's a private account, the President is still able to post through the @POTUS account."
It'd never happen, but man, it'd be funny if it did. :)

You can also pay a couple bucks and then not watch any commercials on Hulu. Every once in a while, you get a show that isn't part of that plan and it shows a commercial at the beginning and a commercial at the end. So, you sit through 1 commercial, and then stop the video at/after the credits and not watch the second one. If you watch a lot of shows on Hulu, it's definitely worth a couple bucks.

I believe, "Anonymous Coward" sums up your beliefs quite succinctly.

I'm pretty sure everyone in this thread understands what a joke is... except you.

Well, in all fairness, it's super easy to remember when autocorrect f'ed something up. But when it corrects something you didn't noticed you goofed on, but was the word you wanted, you'd never realize it worked. :D

This just in: Comcast wants users to use 8-Track players, and the FCC wants everyone to use cassette tapes! Meanwhile, customers are happily using their MP3 players.

I'm not your guy, buddy!

I'm not your buddy, pal.

If only I had mod points! :D

Why is he the "so-called Donald Trump". He may, or may not, be a lot of things. But I think we're all pretty sure that he is, in fact, actually Donald Trump.

I read a long time ago (so, I don't have a source and I don't even know if it's right) that your REM sleep cycles are around 90 minutes long. If you wake up in the middle of a cycle, you're super tired and groggy. If you hit it between cycles, it's fairly easy to wake up. If you vary both the time you go to bed and the time you wake up, you may be able to hit between those cycles. For a while, I had the stride set at going to bed at 10, and naturally waking up about 15-25 minutes before my alarm went off. Then I started reading Game of Thrones again and stay up well past 11 reading. Now I've been barely able to wake up when my alarm goes off. So, the sleep cycle thing at least FEELS like it's true! :D
