The other major university in the Bay Area (and basically in California itself) besides a few University of California places.

The heart of Silicon Valley.

Power, Sex, Suicide by Nick Lane (2006) paints a colorful picture of the man!

Not to be confused with the Michigan State University. Not confusing at all right!

This happens when you calculate a bunch of values on your program, and then want to save the to SQL.

Upsert is an option, but it fails if you have a NOT NULL column: Upsert with NOT NULL column

The premise that "we can't make AGI, but we know enough about the human brain to upload on to a computer" is flawed. Edit: after reading Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom (2014), Ciro Santilli was convinced otherwise. What is flawed is of course just the "extracting connectome with macroscopic probes part". A post mortem connectome extraction with microtome is much more believable. But of course they weren't going to show fake slices of Jonny Depp's brain, are they? Famous actor bodies are sacred! What a huge lost opportunity. On the other hand however, the scale of the first connectome extraction would be arguably too huge to be undertaken by a random pair of rogue researchers. The same would also likely apply to any first time human brain connectome. It would much more likely be a huge public effort, much like the Human Genome Project.

But this film does have the merit of exploring how an AGI might act to take over the AGI might act to take over the world once created, notably by creating its own physical research laboratory. Though it doesn't feel likely that it could go under the radar for 2 years given the energetic requirements of the research. Even the terrorists find it before the FBI!

I also wish they had shown the dildo (or more likely, direct stimulation!) computerized Jonny Depp used to use with his wife before he managed to re-synthesized his body. But you know, 18+ would cut too much profits. Ah, what a shame.

Died of cancer at age 53. Ciro Santilli just can't help but speculate that it is linked to radioactivity exposure.

Protocols are the biologist term for "recipe".

I found that a lot of biology comes down to this: get the right recipe, follow it well even though you don't understand all the proprietary details, and pray.

This period is similar to the Quaternary, but it also includes tool usage by close relatives of humans which were not humans yet.

It ends together with the pleistocene.
