There were a few of your kind in school with me, and I never could figure them out. How they passed some of the courses, and why they chose CS was a mystery to me. I know one of them went on to get a graduate degree in Computer Information Systems.
This was well covered in BLINK: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking, which talked about a war game in which the military kept changing the rules of the game b/c their total informational awareness system which they were trying to showcase kept getting beat due to information overloaded commanders.
I thought you were going to suggest that he copyright all of the 255x255px bitmaps that weren't already copyrighted and then use the machine to look for offenders and mass e-mail take down notices to them.
Co Coller and biscuits have much more to do with diabeetees than sweet tea. Less you are talkin' 'bout sweet tea from Arby's or McDonalds.
(I am from GA, and still here)
E-mail busybox@busybox.net with the info. That will be read by a lot of the copyright holders, and they are the ones with the claim. When they contact the offender their words will carry more weight. And their lawyers' words even more weight.
It's pound sterling, but I guess that £ only stands for pound so they felt it necessary to say sterling too.
Whatever, I'm from Georgia and played in the mud as a child, so I'm pretty sure I shouldn't be trying to answer this.
I have a great aunt that died from it, and a younger aunt that had it -- as in past tense. She went through the chemo, and I don't think she had a bone marrow transplant, but appears to have been cured according to her doctors. It's really not well understood.
When I was in college I tried to get them to paint the CS building plaid and give it a giant pocket protector, but apparently I was the only one who truly understood my vision.
For the last decade or so the Republican party has been pretty successful at keeping roughly 3 different groups with different interests convinced that the their interests were what the Republican party was all about even though the interests of those groups often conflict.
What we really need is a giant retractable dome over every airport that can be closed in case of an emergency.
Either that or jet fuel that's so expensive that no one can afford to fly anymore.
Laying them out flat is better for cooling because it has more surface area, but the cube can be faster since the maximum distance from any 2 points within it is reduced from what it would be if the same chip area were laid out flat. This is why it NEEDS water cooling.
The problem with using a magical box to count votes is that the cheating probably doesn't happen under the watchful eyes of poll workers, but before you even open up. The machines would already be told to count wrong.
In the cases of cheating at the poll on voting day that would depend on the machines being used. If someone brings a soldering iron with them they're probably cheating, though.
If the value of MS right now is M, and the value of Yahoo is Y, then what is the value of MS + Yahoo? I predict it's actually less than M if for no other reason than the expense of acquiring Yahoo.
MS needs to either figure out why they aren't as successful as Google in the web portal business and concentrate on fixing what they already have or find a different battle to fight.
I agree, for the most part, but AOL and TW didn't overlap in what they had going into the deal nearly as much as MS and yahoo do. MS doesn't gain anything they don't already have by acquiring yahoo except a yahoo personals (and MSN already has a tie in with match.com). They'd get some more account members (a lot of which already have hotmail/msn accounts in addition to yahoo), some programmers (MS already hires programmers they don't need to play keep away), a new name, and a bunch of sites that have the same stuff that they already have and aren't making . Yahoo is only worth something to NOT MS.
IANARS, but my first thoughts when seeing the pictures was it looks like there was erosion under parts of the platform that created a hollow spot for a cave in of some blocks which opened up a tunnel/cavity that pressure was able to build up in under the platform, and then when the source of the pressure was removed (the shuttle had lifted off) the pressure above the platform was lower than the pressure that had build up beneath it and so chunks of stuff were pushed out from beneath.
I have a BS in CS but took a course in numerical methods taught by a joint chemistry/cs professor who also taught computer graphics.
Later they added a scientific computing major and minor which this same professor is over.
Perhaps a path like this would be more suited for your school.

Drat!! And I just invested in a project to decode the McNugget genome. I think I've been had!!

Maybe you should just move to Canada, learn French, and be done with it!

Mathematics is merely applied magic.

Started turning the starving third world into oil? Are you mad??
This sounds stupid.

From TFA - no. They are comparing this to a similar plan, which has no upfront costs.
