I don't know about this and how would it work for them. As you just said many people rely on auto-completion (including me). Automatically returning results could probably mean that eventually the suggested auto-completion would be all incomplete because people never required to search for the whole thing, thus, suggestions may not only not be accurate but completely unintelligible.
It seems like in the 80/90s people had imagination. Today, people expect to have a 3D/360 representation of anything they are getting (and/or a demo just in case).
They actually need to become invisible. They are quiet now, if they made them invisible there will be no advantage/disadvantage to people with disabilities.
Interestingly, I recently tried to use the voice recorder on the iPhone to record a conversation I was having with a couple of really annoying DirectTV customer service people (If I can say it here, IT IS THE WORST EVER). Where they asked me to call later due to system problems (knowing that their offices will be closed "later"), and arguing that they will not cancel my order, etc, etc.
Long story short... the voice recorder cannot be activated while you're having a call. Does this article means an update on the iPhone to allow this and properly support complaints on such companies?
I'm a native Spanish speaker and I have to admit that your answer although clever, sounds more like Italian to me. Interestingly the button says translate in English, but it shows the Italian, German, Korean and Chinese flags to me. I guess he doesn't read English either.
Nice math! There is a 60.000 H1-B visa cap each year + 20.000 for high-degrees. The H1-B lasts up to 6 years. In the past years (previous to the recession), all the applications were fulfilled on the first day (April 1st). Which means that on average there would be around 80.000 H1-B recipients per year or about 480.000 active H1-B visas floating around.
As a foreign I could just tell you, it's not about Intel or MS. It's about another bunch of companies that charge people for getting them an H1-B. Which is an immigration loophole. Intel and MS still offer really competitive salaries to H1-B/US Citizens. However, It's my believe that H1-B's have the pressure of keeping their status and would work considerably harder to remain in the country. And after all, most of them have graduated from universities in the US.
Yes, here I was thinking that google had been doing this for a long time too. No matter where I am, the latency of the pings changes as well as the ip address. Did this guy check before coming out with this article? if you have enough money to house equipment on ISPs why would you do it?
I actually don't listen to commercial radio (except perhaps for the news). But, how do you convince the other billion of people that does it? (distribution channels will always push songs to mainstream - Apple iTunes, Amazon, Pandora).
Knowing that the algorithm is correct, the implementation was codec correctly and you don't have faulty RAM that flips a bit doesn't help if your floating point operations decide to round up or down a single bit due to resolution. Checking the Chudnovsky algorithm it's hard for me to tell how to properly perform the ratio for large values of k. That's where "subtle approximation" begins.
Well, there may be people out there tagging names to their Picassa albums using their face recognition technology. I'd say he's claiming that based on statistics you need 14 pictures on average to determine you are (or not) in another picture.
Last time I checked, I tagged most of my photos with a single person name, so the girl in the picture was "Jan Doe" while the guy some "Joe Doe" independently of the real person showing up (somehow I suspected they could be collecting that data too after all).
But as you say, if they already have 14 pictures tagged with my name, they probably already know who I am. Hey! I even have a webpage that says what I do, where I studied and a copy of my resume (and I still don't get a job offer!)
I couldn't agree with you more. The people that wants to do harm will keep finding the means to do it, meanwhile the rest of the world will be tracked down to see what they are doing and looking to set examples as the MPAA/RIAA trying to dissuade those in real anonymity.
Every time I remember the movie Demolition Man, I don't particularly remember the three shells, but their radio stations. Everything is driving our culture to start listening just advertisement:
1. Google's finding that advertisement pays a lot.
2. Copyright.
3. Constant repetition on stations, pushing crappy music to masses until the "like it".
The more I think about it, the more I'm concerned that's the future of that branch of the arts.
Although I agree with you to some extent. I'm an old school programmer and I've been having troubles understanding OO. When I think I understand that stuff, somebody comes to confuse me. But pretty much I think it's not hard once you know how do they work (do it by "interrupts", "calls", "methods" or "subroutines", "functions", or "procedures", most of them just work similarly).

And bears. And wolves, alot of wolves and bears.
Probably.... even vampires.
the entire experience to lock everyone in will probably fail
The sad part is: Probably it won't.

You're talking about an industry who would likely charge passengers for use of the bathroom, if they could get away with it.
And why would they blame their own, if it's easier to blame it on the OS?

Holy! 15 minutes of fame with a hoax! Hot actress from LA name+lastname are very public now. Way to quickly boost your career!
then burn down the building.
I think that's the building he was talking about... his ISP. It's kind of annoying to burn down your own house every time.
The intriguing question is, does he know about making way for a hyperspatial express route?

And as soon as this is treated as an exploit, don't doubt Jobs will come out to blame it on Adobe as the evil company.
C'mon! It's just part of the magic!
Aarrrghhh... you made me a criminal now!
How in hell is now reddig (or digg, or whatever "aggregation service" - even Slashdot - for that matter) an "original source"?
Also, this research report is late. Yahoo knew this for quite some time already. One of their perks!

Also, as far as my contracts says: It's not my router unless I've been with them for more than 2 years.
