A race horse or some prized show animal I could maybe understand. But what's the point of cloning a companion animal?
There are more people that own and are compassionate towards their dog they've had for 10 years...lives in your home, maybe even sleeps at the foot of your bed.
ex. The dog I've had all through childhood is nearing her last year and a half or so, shes almost deaf and her vision is going - still happy ever. Now, if I wanted to you know...clone my beloved dog, it's just a fiscal barrier away.
They are tapping into a market with guaranteed buyers, much larger I would think then horses which are larger and probably more difficult to breed properly. A slow dog isn't really considered a waste of money.
I will say that efforts are already underway in certain combat situations to provide for single pilot control over multiple UAV platforms through semi-automated solutions, but those solutions still have an operator actively monitoring the platform.
So how do I go about getting a job playing the BEST VIDEO GAME EVER? It's like a real RTS, just you operate the eyes and you have commanders making the decisions - ultimately all the information is through you... shit, I'd play all day. Whens beta?!
So Google is telling us they're going to data-mine social network profiles and use software to match people up?...is it me or are they doing exactly what they were saying is a security threat.
uh actually, you just make the troll look like an asshat by not responding. remember: arguing on the internet is like the special olympics. even if you win, you're still retarded.
"Is CS such a basic subject, at the level of science or math, that it makes sense to (try to) teach its principles to every elementary school child?"
Absolutely! How easy is it for children to pick up something that they don't have to do 'heavy thinking' about? Basic computer knowledge can go a long way, and facilitates those who are technically inclined. Allow students to advance their CS knowledge if they are interested, and teach everyone else how to use a computer! Plugging in peripphials, playing with wireless routers, how to properly plug computers in if they ever buy a new one, installing a basic operating system.. linux is perfect
What about the fact that mozilla adds ease of use to web browsing? I can right click and 'View Background Image' or click 'Properties'... something I can't do on chrome. Not to mention Firebug is a firefox app, and a great one at that.
Chrome is just a browser with googles name slapped on it, other than the tabs it doesn't offer much.
Have to run to class or else I'd respond to the whole thing - but if you've ever ridden a skateboard down a hill, it's not very easy to stop minus bailing and roadrashing up your body. I wouldn't go so far as to blame marijuana for the skateboarders a) shortsightedness or b) stupidity, i've known quite a few sober people have accidents similar to that. I myself have eaten shit on my skateboard and nearly hit by a car completely sober as can be.
My favorite series, it took up years of my life waiting and waiting for each book.. but it just felt dragged on after a while. Book 10-12 didn't catch my attention half as much as the first few did. Jordan realized that he had 'golden keystrokes' and just padded the series..
hope this idea turns out better than the computer game.

An MRI to find asians dicks!
That was all /sarc obviously... it makes no sense.
So if I stick my peen in MORE girls it LESSENS my chances of finding one with AIDS? SWEET.
Geek talents no, nerdy skills possibly - theres a difference ;)

Taught me how to steal money... DING!
sounds... hackable. i can't wait till my neighbors pr0n is partially stored on my computer!
is a myth
This thread goes to 11!
Because in their religion, being a beggar is the final ideal state of rebirth before reaching enlightenment.

I'll hold off until I can get nano-spinners for my rims :)

...but does it run *nix?
...but it can be done with some careful planning. :-P

hahaha amazing
Subtlety is key, even if it's for something like proving the program was coded by you if some asshole attempts to take credit...
It's remarkable actually, just one step closer to that elementary school insult most of our scientific crowd received... 'four eyes'
Darwin indeed!
Because "traffic shaping" is akin to "laser beams"
