WOW! A 1981 toy in a new phone!
OK, so now we have a phone based implementation of 1981 toy that is "cutting edge"?
The Sky-Writer by Ideal was a wand like item that you could program to say whatever you wanted by waving LED's in the air.
I had one of these as an 11-year-old.
It was nine years later before I got my first "bag phone" (a Motorola).
Of course, it could be great now for those times I'd like to tell some D.C. beltway drivers MHO of their skills... -
Re:That's a minimum....string theory predics several extra dimensions we can't percieve because they're to small. Any possible relation here?
First off, IANAQP. Most of my modern cosmology and quantum physics comes from SciAm, Brian Greene books, and conversations with Tripoli Rocketry Association member #004. The last time I did tensor calculus was when I looked up Frank Tipler's paper "Rotating Cylinders and the Possibility of Global Causality Violation" twenty years ago. Yes, that is the paper Larry Niven used as the name for a story.
So, based on my rather crude understanding of the whole mess, the answer to your question is "yes." We don't see the extra dimensions in our universe because they are curled up and small. If you look out your window at a telephone wire, the wire appears to be 1 dimensional - it only has length. A closer look shows that the second dimension is "wrapped" around and meets itself.
These dimensions are thought to be exceedingly small, although some string theories allow for the possibility that they could be as big as a millimeter in diameter. The last experiment I remember reading about indicated that, while a millimeter might be too big, they couldn't rule out dimensions on the order of
.1 mm. If one of the dimensions is that large, we should soon be able to measure the failure of the inverse square law at very small distances, where gravity leaking into the other dimensions can be seen.If the four macroscopic dimensions (3 spatial, one time) form closed loops, we might indeed have a strange geometry in space, such as a "horn of plenty."
It's comforting to think that the 4 large dimensions curl up like the small ones. The universe can be "infinite but bounded." There's no messy questions about what happens when you reach the edge of the universe or the universe being infinite in size, although I'd still wonder what's "outside" our universe. There's a symmetry - the big dimensions are simply blown up versions of the small ones and (in some ways) the big dimensions might actually be the same size as the small ones! Measuring the diameter of a dimension can be tricky, since in string theory large and small dimensions are indistinguishable mathematically.
Alas, there's no guarantee that the 4 macroscopic dimensions have their "ends" meet. String theory can handle infinite dimensions and non-loop strings with end points as well. If you could travel far, far faster than light, you might simply keep going in one direction, never returning to your point of origin.
We may never know the answer. If the universe is far bigger than the 156 billion lyrs minimum, then we'll never see edge effects on the cosmic microwave background. The macroscopic universe might go on forever or loop back around or come to a dead stop at a giant brick wall - and we'll never know.
There are two major problems with current quantum cosmologies. One is that they're exceedingly and increasingly difficult to calculate. What good is an equation that is the "answer to everything" if there's no possible way to solve it or even come up with a decent approximation to an answer? The other problem is that there are probably an infinite number of possible theories, and even if they can be solved, the vast majority predict the same answer at any level we could ever hope to explore in any conceivable experiment.
Think of it as job security for physicists.
I wish I could find a link to George Carlin's riff on the Catholic Church's answer "It's a mystery!" It would be oddly appropriate.

I got one from Grandstand "Astro Wars"
If you have one of these (Grandstand Astro Wars) lying about, you'll find a great fresnel lens inside. I was a kid when I discovered it, so I'm not sure of the dimensions, but it was danm powerful. Even in England, it could set wood alight easily.

A Boon for Developers
To a developer, easy cross-platform compatibility is great. But compatibility among platforms in different markets is priceless.
I love free stuff. If I can get cross-platform development for free (or close), I'll take it. The ability to create a substantial application and have it run well on Windows, Mac OS, and Linux means I can reach a greater audience. But what XNA promises is almost impossible to resist: the ability to develop a substantial game that runs on your desktop, in your livingroom, and on your keychain -- three large markets that do not directly compete.
Applications drive an operating system; a stack of exceptional programs give consumers a reason to buy your OS. A complaint I've long had with Palm is that they haven't made it easier to develop for Palm OS. Microsoft gives its development environment away for free. In fact, it's possible to develop simple games concurrently for Windows Desktop and Pocket PC. If XNA can make it possible for a small studio such as mine to develop our more complex offerings concurrently for Windows and Pocket PC, will I care about Palm OS, Mac OS, or Linux?
What I'd like to see from companies such as Apple and PalmSource are environments like Torque, which makes it possible to write for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux by abstracting each environment. But Torque is really an ad-hoc solution (in both senses of the term); it's not a hollistic system, and it's not supported by the OS vendors. Though an awkward combination, if it were possible to develop substantial applications for Mac OS, Palm OS, and Windows, I might. But if XNA allows me to develop substantial applications for Windows, Pocket PC, and the Xbox concurrently -- three different, juicy markets -- that's even better. -

Everything old is new again
1976 Deathrace - Exidy This was the first video game to be (albeit, loosely) based on a movie (In this case, Deathrace 2000,) where the object of the game is to run over people for points and avoid the tombstones they leave behind where the people laid. This was also the first game to be taken off the market due to the public's reaction to it's violent nature.

I dunno, I just had a look at those graphs. It sure looks to me like there's a significant upturn in transfer rates starting shortly after the article's posting (at 1:21 PM) on about 8 out of 16 of those graphs... though I'm not sure what time zone the stats are from (not mentioned, even in the detail screen: they say "The statistics were last updated Monday, 1 March 2004 at 14:20". Good uptime on the servers, though: 202 days...

This customer: Taking it in stride
You tell EV1 that you're taking your business elsewhere, you take your business elsewhere, and you tell your friends to stay the hell away from EV1 as a hosting company.
I'm not a hosting customer, but I am a dialup customer. The initial news that they've paid their protection money to SCO annoyed me, but then I remembered why I signed up with them in the first place.
Back in mid-2003, they suffered a transformer explosion and fire. Their backup systems kicked in, and they could have easily gotten away with letting the whole thing pass. But they didn't.
They brought in two backup generators -- one to run things, and one as a backup for the backup. That ain't cheap -- it was a 3000 kVa transformer that exploded, and that sounds like an awfully large item to replace (times 2) in 12 hours -- especially since the explosion happened at 7pm local time, when Generators-R-Us is probably closed for the day.
But that's not all -- instead of sweeping the whole mess under the rug, EV1.net's senior technical personnel were on the message boards with up-to-the-minute updates throughout the ordeal. They even posted pictures of the aftermath. That takes some guts!
So they paid SCO's mobsters. Disgusting, yes, but I see it as insurance... like having a plan for a second backup generator in case the fail-proof first backup generator fails. The chances of SCO prevailing are slim, but non-zero... just like the chances of the backup generator failing.
Stay with EV1, folks. They're victims, like you... they're just trying to limit the damage. -

cpuburn
I am surprised no one mentioned this one, cpuburn. It is a good CPU stress tester in Windows and Linux. Be sure to reading the warning because it can damage if your system doesn't have proper cooling.

Re:I use make buildworld
This is slightly OT, but I've found one of the best ways to test (as opposed diagnose) hardware is to install FreeBSD then run "make buildworld" on it...
If you're worried about system stability or processor-cooling effectiveness, a couple of good stress tests are Prime95 (it has a "torture-test" mode) and cpuburn. Somebody complained that the Shuttle SFF boxes tend to overheat and flake out. I built one (with three hard drives...it was for a DVR setup), set it up outside in Las Vegas' summer heat, and fired up cpuburn. It ran without so much as a hiccup.

Re:Low Cost
There are many tools which come with today's GNU/Linux distributions that can be used to test hardware. Knoppix and LiveCD distros are useful for their portability. Full-blown distros can be even more useful due to the sheer breadth of tools that they contain. GNU/Linux drivers and tools can usually be made to output large volumes of information on what they're doing and what they've found. Being open source, they can be more fully understood. Tools can be combined to perform all sorts of tasks and tests.
I have used The Linux Hardware Stability Guide at IBM DeveloperWorks (Part 1 | Part 2) to test and tweak a number of systems. I have found the best stress testers to be a looped kernel compilation, cpuburn and Memtest86. Mprime is good as well. -

Re:full speed ahead
Wrong! At least for the inherent proposition ("full speed ahead") that running something like SETI@home is the same as letting the box sit idle.
Try this at home, if you have a temperatur sensor on your CPU (even on something like an Athlon).
- Download cpuburn (interesting proggy btw., I have never had my CPU _that_ stressed)
- run it
- watch your CPU get hot
hotter CPU = more power consumption, that's for sure.
Btw. I that might be the real issue with things like SETI at home. If you run this stuff for excessive periods, you _will_ pay for it. Someone should do the math, comparing reduced life expecation for a proc (and price to buy _the_same_ proc after it dies prematurely) against cost for the additional power consumption.

Re:No wonder everything is so boring latelyWhile we're at it, I'm beginning to think this whole "rule of law" thing is going too far, myself. It does nothing for the sense of "vengeance" human societies were founded upon for millennia.
Though you were making a point, and weren't seriously advocating total anarchy, it's notable that there are plenty of folks who do want to go back to the "good ol days". Here are the lyrics to a current country hit by Toby Keith and Willie Nelson:Grandpappy told my pappy, back in my day, son
The song, Beer For My Horses, goes on to say, "It's time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground."
A man had to answer for the wicked that he done
Take all the rope in Texas, find a tall oak tree,
Round up all of them bad boys, hang them high in the street
for all the people to see...
I'd love to think that the NASCAR set(*) sees the song as a satire of our country's desire for simple solutions to complex problems. But I can't convince myself that it's so... and given Toby Keith's discography, I'm not sure he *did* mean it as a satire.
(*) No, I don't think all NASCAR fans are redneck anarchists. It's just the quickest metaphor I could find at the moment. -

Recent Wired Article Glossed Over ThisWired's April edition had an article about "How Hydrogen Can Save America" by Peter Schwartz and Doug Randall of GBN. It did briefly mention nuclear power, but glossed over the fact that that was the real core of their proposal. Sure, hydrogen can store energy in ways that may be more or less useful compared to batteries, and that may let you move decentralize pollution or centralize it outside of core city areas, but that's not a fundamental change in energy sources. The article says "3. Convert the nation's fueling infrastructure to hydrogen." and "5. Mount a public campaign to sell the hydrogen economy."
The article's relentless insistence on how THE GOVERNMENT MUST MUST MUST IMMEDIATELY LAUNCH A Manhattan-project-like effort to develop a hydrogen economy and SAVE AMERICA reminded me of those Anime Otakudom lines about "The World Will Be Saved By Steam!", or like various other rants that people go on, usually political or anti-drug. Sure, there's good technical discussion in there about fuel cells and storage issues, but that's not really what it's about.
So Remember, Kids, Hydrogen isn't the answer! Professor Steamhead says ""Steam. Water plus heat equals steam. Always remember this. The world can be saved by steam." and he's got a giant steam-powered mecha robot to do the job with!

Not a real simulator
Looking at these images it doesn't look like the switchs, buttons and toggles actually control anything. So it is more like a mockup with TV's and lots of switchs that don't do anything (other then maybe lightup). Hardly worth 15,000 dollars for something that just looks intersting but serves no actual function.

it was explained quite clearly on the web page. there was even a link for "what is included in the auction". you get all of the panels, the mission timer, joysticks, some flight manuals + flipbooks, power supplies and software. you don't get the chair or any of the misc things in the picture.

Re:SETI@home
SETI will bring the CPU to the limit. If it's overclocked and/or badly cooled or otherwise unstable, you'll see that quickly.
Better to use a dedicated util for this, like CPUBurn, which will exercise the CPU as much as possible to generate heat and verify everything's still working.
Just because SETI/RC5/etc push CPU usage to 100%, doesn't mean they fully exercise all the various units on the CPU, or even that they'll notice if a bit flips here or there. -

My company actually gave us free tickets
I work for an ISP in Houston who shall remain nameless except to same that's it's Everyone's Internet, and they actually bought us free tickets for the midnight opening. They did add the caveat that anyone scheduled to work the next morning was still expected to show up and be *awake* and *alert* and capabale of working.
Those bastards.

Re:ID papers for implants don't always work...
I had a rod and a couple screws (stainless steel)put in my arm last fall. Several people asked if I would get some sort of card for the airport. When I asked the doctor, he said they don't distribute anything like that.
Hopefully the embarrassment will be limited to having to take my shirt off and people laughing at my gut.

An interesting side note about Memories of Green
Ooh, I just remembered this little anecdote!
If you listen carefully, you can hear some beeping in the background of the piece. When I first heard this, I was stunned: It was the sound from the very first handheld video game I ever owned (and still do!): The UFO Master Blaster Station by Bambino.
How cool is that!
