In 1988, physicist Edward Witten of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton turned Jones' single invariant into a whole zoo of new invariants using a link he found between Jones' method and quantum theory.
Does this mean that Schrodinger's cat now wears a tie with a very, very complicated knot? This could be a revolution in the mathmaticians annual fashion contest!
Yesterday I was reading the Fox News comments on the video of an American military vet voting for McCain. I like reading the comments, well, because... people are so stupid that it hurts. But it's funny.
And then there was people saying the US are in Iraq to 'free' the people. I couldn't help myself from registering to the site and posting a comment about Saudi Arabia - which has a very, very, very, very bad regime but, since it does what the US economically wants, nobody says anything about it. The US doesn't need to 'free' them, while they keep the cheap oil flow. I didn't want to hide so I openly posted as a foreigner watching the news.
What the people said? 'you third world bastard, get back to your (bleep) (bleep) country.'
We've located your cyber and there will be some agents there in a few minutes. They will arrest you for trying to access a prohibited copyright-questioning page. All resistance will be futile, so please be a gentleman.
The illegal exports bound for Iran have involved such items as missile guidance systems, Improvised Explosive Device (IED) components, military aircraft parts, night vision systems and other materials. ...
The firehose of technology flowing overseas isn't the result necessarily of a coordinated effort by a group of terrorists or even governments but rather private-sector businessmen, scientists, students, and academics from overseas are among the most active collectors of sensitive US technology. Most did not initially come to the US with that intent. Instead, after finding that they had access to technology in demand overseas, they engaged in illegal collection to satisfy a desire for profits, acclaim, or patriotism to their home nations, the DOJ stated.
"Hello, airport officer. I'm an Iranian teacher and I'm going back to Iran with this missile guidance system. Ok, right? I'm not a terrorist or something."
The link to the website talks about heat-loving bacteria like near volcanoes.
My name: Bacillus Vulcani
Likes: heat, being near a vulcanoe, being inside human beings.
Dislikes: penicilin, cold.
Ideal date: meeting someone while in a tongue during a kiss, watching a beautiful vulcanoe explosion.
My name: hydrogenProducin'2008
Likes: producing hydrogen. Spell games.
Dislikes: tetracycline, human's immune system.
Ideal date: in the end, we should get nasty and produce some heat
The researchers call the new state of matter 'a quasi-three-dimensional electron crystal.' It was discovered using a device cooled to a temperature about 100 times colder than intergalactic space, following the application of the most powerful continuous magnetic field on Earth.
I don't know why, but I think this will take a while to get to my local PC store.
It never wanted to be. I don't think this is a problem.
Wikipedia's content is generated by pseudo-anonymous individuals who incorrectly assert the public Internet is a reliable source of information. The public Internet is not a reliable source of information, therefore wikipedia is not a reliable source.
Not quite right. I think no one believes that the public internet is a reliable source of information, and neither Wikipedia. Wikipedia works based in the work of a community guided by a strict set of rules. This community would verify, correct and, if necessary, delete the content provided by any misguided person.
Wikipedia's editors break the rules governing their behavior and the behavior of others if it will benefit them. As a result, wikipedia advances the subjective views and beliefs of its editors.
I have to ask you some evidence for that claim. And, still, editors can be wrong as individuals. What can't happen is that a majority of editors do something like you said. Then, it would be a problem.
Contributing factors to this delusion include the competing concepts "notability" and "neutrality", as advanced by wikipedia. Lacking from that discussion, of course, is the question: notable or neutral, to who?
Now I think you do have a point. Of course, in wikipedia, the neutrality or notability of an article should be related to the body of possible readers, but it will be normally decided by body of editors. Even then, I think that point could be addressed to any encyclopedia: the only difference would be that the reference would be always the publisher.
Every day there's news here about Government trying to control the Internet. China with their great firewall, the UK and their laws, Australia and their version of internet control. Government gets crazy when they sense there's something they can't control. Judges, Senators, Presidents, the whole system.
What makes me sad is that I always thought it'd be harder to 'control' the internet, but it seems they'll do it sooner or later.
The goal of the project is to speed medical research by dispensing with the elaborate precautions traditionally taken to protect the privacy of human subjects.
I really don't agree. You can be a serious landmark site of the tech industry and still make fun of yourself.
Just look at the surreal dinner yesterday with Obama and McCain.

No, not my car again!
Just saying that we have some rather larger fish to fry at the moment, and this seems sort of peripheral.
So, what's your suggestion? The math guys should stop their research and start stating their opinion about the unemployment and mortgage problems?
Maybe the whole /. would be peripheral using your way of thinking.
and everything to do with teaching toddlers how to tie their shoes
Yes, the problem they're facing now is teaching the toddlers how to see that 11th dimension.

I can't argue with that.
I've heard that Kevin Smith's movies are heavily affected already. Silent Bob was meant to be named "Cursing-bittorrent-downloading Bob".

Last week's talk..:
Boss: You're a really informed guy...
Me (thinking): " OMG he got me at /."
Boss: ...and I'm pretty sure you read a lot in your house to keep this up.
Me: hmmm... er... of course!
I think real work could be done in the downtimes of the social networks. "Man, Facebook is down, I'll try to kill that bug now."
I remembered this comic. In fact, the Problem-solving robot would work just as good.
Wait until they know about galactic piracy.

In general, the addition of the resveratrol shouldn't affect the taste of the beer, since the chemical is odorless and tasteless, he said.
So, why not adding it to... water? Because that way you wouldn't get in the newspaper, not even a /. mention?

Since Wikipedia is the most widely read online reference on the planet....
...(big logical jump)...
it's the standard of truth that most people are implicitly using when they type a search term into Google or Yahoo.
The state should use its claim to take over the national power grids.
Some factories, inside and outside the US, produce fertilizers that help Colombians grow coke. So, our judge should close those factories as well.
This is so stupid thats it's sad we have to discuss it.
Isn't Kentucky where tobacco comes from?
Also, I think my blood is poisoned by Kentucky Fry Chicken.
