My favorite memory of strolling through akihabara was going through a maze of electronics vendor stalls and coming across a guy selling nothing but big red buttons. If you stick to the normal shops, its pretty much many many people selling the exact same stuff. If you explore a little, you'll start finding the more offbeat tinkerer type stuff.
I went with some co-workers to watch team axion qualify near UCSD. Except for a bump with a trash can, it did pretty damn good. The driving control is much more rough than a human driver ever would, but I think they can pull it off.
the pub example is oh so amazingly lame. pretty sad when you have to go some place and get drunk so that you can interact with other human beings. can these people not do it sober?
you're outside working on a car vs. inside staring at a monitor
come now... i can be incredibly productive sitting in front of a monitor... i just choose not to most of the time =)
You think that you're different or somehow special because you're not hooked directly to the idiot box? You may be thinking "At least I don't see the commericals"... but as you so aptly pointed out... the entire show is a fucking commercial.
beyond lame. they even try to rename honeynets to "Billy Goats". Also, once worms get a little wiser about their propagation schemes, this thing is history.
breaking energy should be stored in fly wheels, not given back to the battery. in most cases (stop and go) the energy will be used again in a very short time anyway.
nope. nor is it my job to do so. i'm just stating an opinion, which you are free to validate, disagree with, or ignore. being more familiar with the maxtor RMA process than anyone else i know makes me feel capable of making such statements. every time i get suckered in by their lower prices, i have had to re-learn this lesson.
He lost me at "I like Maxtor". Anyone who recommends maxtor hdds is either on the take, or hasn't been building systems for very long. Either case... I'd pass a bestbuy job application his way.
They will reveal things like buffer overflows, memory leaks, pointer problems, malformed expression problems, etc.
These are all currently found using tools like lint / splint which in the case of splint, is FREE (as in NOT the 100-200k cost range pal). Vulnerabilities still exist. These tools have been around for some time. Automated analysis isn't a magic bullet. Its about good coding practices and comprehension of the system you're running your code on.

I just kept thinking "Enders Game" !!!
You just have to love a beer named "The Arrogant Bastard Ale". IPA is pretty decent too.

yeah sure. just ask ender wiggin how much he liked playing that game.
sounds like a nice little project using the google API

What are you on dialup or something?
you actually hang out with real people at a pub

now Crashoveride and the others can hack the gibson and stop Plague from unleashing the Da Vinci virus!
I can't wait to see some more of AcidBurn's clevage!!!

its truly amazing. this so explains emacs.
This was already mentioned almost as an aside in the current issue of wired. I guess they let the cat out of the bag a little early.
I'm pretty sure scaling it up is the problem.
make that ... braking.

yeah seriously, there was no mention of static damage. i thought it was going to start w/ l33t people build systems n4k3d.

it was my understanding that sloccount used a now depreciated means of calculating value.

i'm sorry. i didn't recall applying to be your research assistant. how much does that pay again?
interesting idea... but rather than do AGP... why not PCI Express? though a quick google shows that this is already been though of.
this can also be accomplished w/ virtual CC numbers.
yeah i can remember driving to school the next day after hours of GTA, pulling up next to a nice car and thinking, "oh I should trade up".
