@CelticRambler, are you saying that France has a history of satire? That would be true, especially with Asterix the Gaul, but Britain also @CelticRambler, which country? Britain or France? I'm curious because I'm wondering about your reference to that strong tradition. I'm reading Marion...

@mlesemann and @sfoster, thanks. I keep thinking of the scene in the 1980's movie, "Excalibur", where Sir Lancelot said that no one could cross the bridge unless they beat him at a jousting match. This scene was also done in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail", when the knight, having his limbs...

Today is the Feast of St George. I'm writing bits and pieces on the retelling of legend of King Arthur, so, of course, I would be reading up on prior versions. Anyway, I was going to start the story from the fall of the Roman Empire, when the soldiers decide to stay and make their lives in...

Then he should write about writing instead of talking about talking.

I have been under the impression that the Mouse House recouped its $4 billion purchase price with the new trilogy, but this Forbes article says otherwise. I'm not up on this, but it seems that the trilogy made the money, then the subsequent movies bombed, creating the loss. In any case...

Welcome, but why "underground"?

Boston Dynamics has apparenlty never turned a profit, so there's no reason to presume AI of that kind would be cost effective.

This article shows the shortcomings of AI when it comes to replacing humans and it also references the video in this thread as just a demo.

Welcome! We have the same first name, so great minds think alike. :)
