That said, the leap from the observable universe to the Big Bang is remarkable. I cannot conceive of how cosmologists and physicists developed that theory based on anything that didn't involve highly speculative, unsupportable, and [initially, at least] downright laughable proposals.

Read The Big Bang by Simon Singh for a well-written introduction. It's a fascinating story, from the original theory conceived by a Jesuit priest (Lemaître) to the recent discoveries of Cosmic Background radiation.

To me, the most fascinating part was after Hubble's explanation of near-universal red shift in galaxies, he used the Type Ia supernovae in other galaxies to calibrate standard candles and convincingly make the case that red shift is due to expansion. From there, you just have to work backwards to deduce a much hotter, denser universe and the math led to inflation theory, etc.

Of course, the theory could be overturned if new evidence comes to light or a more inclusive theory replaces it, but it's astonishing how every prediction of the theory has been experimentally confirmed, yet there's still that pesky dark matter and dark energy... :)

The real question is whether Verizon's other transits are equally saturated. For instance, does an HD Youtube video stutter as much on Verizon as a Netflix video? If not, and if Google isn't paying for a high-bandwidth direct link, then Verizon is lying here.

Internet connections are resilient unless tampered with -- the Netflix data should get to the customer another way around if the direct link is full (such as through Level3 or another peer).

This is a presentation on fusion I watched recently. It is by a Skunkworks engineer, made at Google's Solve for X program. It looks plausible to me. Would anyone care to comment on it?

I was under the impression that Google Wallet for physical goods required the merchant to already have a merchant account with a non-Google payment processor. See "keep your existing payment processor" on this page.

I think this is what you were thinking of.

Well, if you want to know the exact degree of acidification to be expected I agree you would need the specific formulas and a range of reasonable projections for atmospheric CO2 levels and water temperatures. On the other hand recognizing that there will be at least some temporary level of unavoidable acidification so long as temperature changes lag behind CO2 increases only requires a basic understanding of first principles.

Or even simply looking at the measurements of what's already happening: Average atmospheric CO2 levels have increased from 280ppm to 400ppm since the beginning of the industrial revolution, and thus far the average ocean temperature changes are less than a degree. Measurements of carbonic acid levels are meanwhile showing the expected increase considering that we've increased the partial-pressure of CO2 by ~43% without yet substantially changing the temperature.

And if you want to work out the details, well then as with most materials science you don't actually want formulas - you want raw observational solubility data plots, untainted by theoretical predictions. This stuff has lots of industrial applications, so it should be free of any of the AGW related distortions you fear.

So that's five examples of that industrial that "never happens" so far. I suggest you stop this disgusting display of denial. Your teachers would be appalled at what appears to be the idea the history is the self-serving story as written by the victors and not the actual path to victory.

As for your link, is that some failed attempt to show off that you have actually read a book with long words in it some time in your life? It does not back up your argument about there being no industrial espionage and is a pretty flimsy justification at suggesting that it's all OK if it's government owned enterprises being spied on - which in some of these cases doesn't apply anyway (eg. a US law firm with an Indonesian tobacco company as a client). I find it very insulting that you are putting it forward as if I am unaware that most states have some involvement in private enterprise.
So the only mystery here is why are you misleading people on this website? What brings a person with a political "science" focus that appears to think the study of climate is no science to a technically orientated website to mislead the readers here? Can you answer that one?

You want links to any of my assertions I'll be happy to provide them. It's fairly trivial to find most of the info. A simple google of "National Champions" leads directly to the policy of dirigesme. It's not quite as bad as it was during the 30 glorious years, but it's still impossible to conceive of the French coming across something important to AirBus and them not telling it directly to AirBus. The whole point of the system is they're too small to win if they don't have everything (including their spy agencies) working together.

An equally simple google turns up numerous PoliSci works indicating transparency leads to peace, if everyone knows what everyone else actually wants it's much easier to get to an agreement. Here's one book. That actually goes to a page stating that if Germany had known how the Brits would actually react to their invasion of Belgium, then it's likely WW1 would have been completely avoided. It does not say how this information was to be obtained.

Your problem seems to be you read the papers, and take them at face value. You don't understand that if we actually cheated half as much as people say we do in papers, the Germans would not prefer us to Putin. So they don't read those articles carefully. Then they half-remember said articles, and repeat them on the internet.

As for my being in the government's can, re-read some of my posts on this thread. I have explicitly stated that Snowden will never be kidnapped from Russia because he's white. If you'd think about what I'm saying for 10 seconds, instead of mindlessly repeating drivel you clearly don't remember (otherwise you could link to it) you'd note that I just called the government racist.

The issue is that the traditional keyboard layout. It's designed to accept up to 10 fingers of input. Your phone is only designed to accept two. This is reasonable only for the shittiest of typing skills. Most people who are fast at touch screen typing, get that way by learning to accept spelling mistakes, ignore grammar and punctuation, and let auto-correct generate something close to what you really intended. Their goals are completely different from traditional Mavis Beacon like software, because accuracy is practically irrelevant.

If you have a real desire to learn to type on a touch screen, toss out all of your QERTY keyboard bullshit and use something that was designed for - you know - touch screens (swype is an abomination that takes auto-correct down to the character level).

God this sounds familiar..... and that's because I wrote a PhD thesis about building a system to do something a lot like this. It involved a fairly mediocre web interface wrapping a database of trust relationships specified by end users. A trusts B for 0.7 and B trusts C for 0.6 then you can put together a trust level between A and C by multiplying those together with some user-tweakable distance dropoff. Those trust levels were then measured against the levels required for access to shared data. Maybe you would allow anyone with a 0.7 or higher to read a given document and a 0.9 or higher to contribute to it. It was an interesting idea, but man did I get tired of it by the end. If for some bizarre reason anyone wants to read bits of it google books has some indexed and I probably have a pdf laying around somewhere....

I figured it could be quite useful, but I was so fed up with the work in mid-2007 that I never looked back at it.

Around 2001 or 2002, while working at at IBM Research I went to a talk by Ted Nelson there, and I asked him about the story given the similar name. He said that the story had inspired him (at least partially) to do his work, and thanked me for telling him the name of the story, saying he had been looking for that story for a long time. While I did not say so, his reply about looking for the story surprised me given that there are probably not many stories with Xanadu in the title so a library search would have found it I would think.. Ted Nelson records everything around him on a tape recorder (or at least did then), so that interaction should be on one of his tapes...

The 1956 story by Theodore Sturgeon is am amazing work that features a world networked by wireless mobile wearable computing supporting freely shared knowledge and skills through a sort of global internet-like concept. Some of that knowledge was about advanced nanotech-based manufacturing. The system powered an economy reflecting ideas like Bob Black writes about in "The Abolition of Work", where much work had become play coordinated through this global network. The story has inspired other people as well, both me from when I read it (and forgot it mostly for a long time, except for the surprise ending), and also a Master Inventor at IBM I worked with who got inspired by the nanotech aspects of that story when he was young. Even almost sixty years later, that story still has things we can learn from about a vision of a new type of society (including with enhanced intrinsic&mutual security) made possible through advanced computing.

A core theme is an interplay between meshwork and hierarchy, reminiscent of Manuel De Landa's writings:
http://www.egs.edu/faculty/man...
"Indeed, one must resist the temptation to make hierarchies into villains and meshworks into heroes, not only because, as I said, they are constantly turning into one another, but because in real life we find only mixtures and hybrids, and the properties of these cannot be established through theory alone but demand concrete experimentation. Certain standardizations, say, of electric outlet designs or of data-structures traveling through the Internet, may actually turn out to promote heterogenization at another level, in terms of the appliances that may be designed around the standard outlet, or of the services that a common data-structure may make possible. On the other hand, the mere presence of increased heterogeneity is no guarantee that a better state for society has been achieved. After all, the territory occupied by former Yugoslavia is more heterogeneous now than it was ten years ago, but the lack of uniformity at one level simply hides an increase of homogeneity at the level of the warring ethnic communities. But even if we managed to promote not only heterogeneity, but diversity articulated into a meshwork, that still would not be a perfect solution. After all, meshworks grow by drift and they may drift to places where we do not want to go. The goal-directedness of hierarchies is the kind of property that we may desire to keep at least for certain institutions. Hence, demonizing centralization and glorifying decentralization as the solution to all our problems would be wrong. An open and experimental attitude towards the question of different hybrids and mixtures is what the complexity of reality itself seems to call for."

If you check out the Lego Friends sets you will see that they now have mini-fig characters that have more shape to their body. The males and females have different body shapes and actual molded clothes. They are much more similar to Playmobile characters and now include lots of little extra parts like Playmobile has such as apples, crossaints, cups, etc. They made these to appeal to little girls as the rectangular characters didn't encourage girls imagination as much as the Playmobile characters did or something like that. The Disney Princess sets have very similar looking characters.

Although LLVM bitcode can in theory be translated to native code on a variety of platforms, in practice it is at the wrong level of abstraction for this to work well because by the time you've run your source through Clang you've already run your platform's C header files, with all of their platform-specific bits and bobs, and compile-time endianness detection, etc, and bakes some of the calling convention into the bitcode instructions. You often need to return to the source to produce bitcode that will run well (or at all) on a different architecture.

C was designed to deal with compatibility at the source level, not at the binary level... LLVM managed to shift that abstraction a little, but it's not a magic bullet.

There are a few different LLVM mailing list discussions about this area, but I found one that seems particularly pertinent to your question.

Of course (as alluded to by that thread) the PNaCL project is attempting to add an additional layer of abstraction to solve this problem. They use a mixture of techniques, including defining an idealized "platform" for their toolchain to target, subsetting the LLVM bitcode, and adding a bunch of special intrinsics that their specialized compiler is able to use. It definitely has promise, but I don't think it's really been proven as the ultimate solution just yet.

Free OSM-based map downloads for pretty much everywhere OSM are available - with update notifications. The interface is not quite up to the level of paid apps when it comes to polish, but it definitely holds its own. I think they make their money off people that use TomTom map data within the app (it supports that too).

Although, yes, this one can be easily predicted, it does seem fairly unique: https://www.google.com/search?...

Which brings up the point where the implementation gets tricky. When it comes to structure and the words used it is very unoriginal, but as a whole it is very original. Perhaps naive approaches to detecting the originality of a piece of text would do more harm then good. I guess it all comes down to waiting for AI that can sufficiently understand text to determine a useful originality score.

Ok, not sure what the fucking hell beta did to my comment between editing and submitting, but here it goes again:

This isn't really a "battery" any more so than gasoline is. Technically, you could recover the waste products from gasoline combustion, and using various chemical processes + energy turn it back into gasoline. But that doesn't mean your gas tank is a battery. Same goes for this thing. It is basically an engine burning aluminum. Traveling 3000 km in a car that gets 50 mpg requires about 100 kg of gasoline, so this has about the same energy density.

Because there is never any Al in current motor cars.
(Granted, not 100 kg, but far more than enough to make for a pretty light show if you ignite it.)

their crazy plan to give NASA more money than President Obama wants it to have. They just keep doing this over and over - it must be some sort of evil anti-sciency plot thingy. It's a magical Koch Brothers (TM) back-handed super-over-double-think TRICK to somehow destoy the Earth. EVERYBODY who gets Democrat talking points KNOWS to ignore reality and instead claim that Republicans HATE science or are too stupid to understand it, and Democrats like Barack Obama and Al Gore are geniuses who embrace and push to fund things like NASA as much as they can.

Extreme Sarcasm aside, however...

This would be NO PROBLEM if only President Obama would change his policies and get the US Economy working again. This has been the worst economic "recovery" in modern history. After President Obama took office and implemented his first budget (AFTER most job losses of the 2008 recession hit) the food stamp program was $40 Billion dollars per year. Obama has now doubled that to $80 Billion dollars per year (event though unemployment has NOT doubled since his 1st budget). NASA has an annual budget of under $20 Billion dollars. If Obama could simply get the economy to be as healthy as it was when he was sworn in (which was PRETTY BAD) he could reduce food stamps by $40 Billion per year and triple NASA's budget (making moon and Mars colonies quite affordable) without increasing the deficit or raising taxes. If he could actually run the economy BETTER than Bush, he could save even more from the extremely bloated social welfare programs that are eating the economy alive.

Yeah, I don't count Flash apps.

ChromeOS supports flash, therefore your exclusion of it is arbitrary and irrelevant when comparing the functionality of ChromeOS.

Except neither of those is an SSH client. If they were, you could visit the demo page, and connect to any SSH server. You can't, because it isn't. It's more like a strange simulation... only a visual simulation.

More like they're server-side clients, but the point is a fair one. Luckily, there are real SSH clients available for Chrome (and hence ChromeOS):

The description says it uses NaCL. That's completely irrelevant. You put that on a chromebook, you can connect to an SSH server, and the fact that it's written in machine code instead of javascript doesn't change the fact that it works.

If that's the case, it's still unusual. I've never been to a place where there was a sign required. Here in Seattle if there's a left turn green arrow, one may enter the intersection. In fact, signs are pretty rare. (Turn lane markings are not but we're talking about permission to turn not which lane one can turn from). It's the same, from what I recall in PA, NY, MA, FL and CA.

So they can ticket two cars in one go?

If only there was an article some place that talked about it.

sheeesh.

I glanced at the Google Street View link in the ITWorld.com article, and the 2007 imagery for that location shows that the bike lane didn't exist at that time... and likewise, it shows that nobody is parked in front of the hydrant. Move forward, and all three of the subsequent snapshots of that location show cars (which were no doubt all ticketed) parked alongside the newly painted bike lane, directly adjacent to that hydrant -- but more interestingly, the photos also show "no-parking" markings on the street leading up to just a bit before that hydrant. At a glance, any reasonable person would interpret the street markings to indicate that parking there was perfectly legal, and expected. And really, how much more than "a glance" do most people give to their city parking, when they're probably already late for work?

That said: I wouldn't necessarily go straight to NYPD malice for the explanation. Seems to me, someone in the DOT simply wasn't paying enough attention to his surroundings when he designated the street re-painting requirements, (oops) and low-paid NYPD traffic cops simply discovered and took advantage of the situation to easily meet their ticket quotas, without ever really asking or caring about the "why."

What if you're in a city like Sydney, where there are mazes of roads underground? You phone GPS won't work there.

If you're phone cant get a GPS signal, neither can your car. It will be equally as stuffed. Also phones can handle the loss of a GPS signal. My Galaxy Nexus seemed to handle it just fine through the tunnels of Sydney using Google Maps for navigation.

How about countries like Japan, where they have the VICS network that gives road users helpful information like road works and traffic congestion via microwave, infra-red and FM radio data?

Phones are capable of picking that up as well. In fact, my phone can use applications that go beyond the functionality of these systems.

You cellphone can't do that, nor can it do automated toll road payments.

Actually it can and does. But most toll roads use your number plate these days.

It doesn't offer handy features like trip/fuel economy displays either.

I've used Torque in cars that do not have fancy on board computers. It provides a hell of a lot more info than just fuel economy/trip displays.

Besides this, any car from 2008 onwards has a fuel efficiency display and as for a trip display... every car from the late 80's onwards.

And unlike your "infotainment" system, my phone is upgradeable and transferable to my new vehicle. Your infotainment system has been forgotten about by the manufacturer before your car leaves the dealer. So you're stuck with a unit that is not user upgradeable and completely useless 3 years later.

I could be wrong, but isn't the Nexus 5 both 4G and LTE?

The wiki page for it claims:

CDMA band class: 0/1/10
WCDMA bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8/19
LTE bands: 1/2/4/5/17/19/25/26/41
Model LG-D821 (Rest of World)
WCDMA bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8
LTE bands: 1/3/5/7/8/20

So it looks like the LG-D821 would be her best option. She might not have LTE in North America but will still have GSM. I not an expert on this subject so definitely do some more research. Good luck!
