if Slater pretended he didn't make the photos, then he legally didn't make the photos, period. if you go to the police and lie that you've killed your neighbor, then legally you've killed your neighbor and might very well be locked up for a few weeks, until they find out that he's alive and well, but still you can be punished for at least pretending to be a murderer.
My thought exactly. Why would you need 2.4GHz to send 50 bits per second? This better works on solar power, in the container of a nuclear reactor, even if you remove that big black squarish thing from the green plate.
There are/very/ simple rules to design a radio frequency communication system, and this is impressively unimpressive.
Because research groups get paid for publishing their articles with big publishers. This is the way research works: once you discover something interesting, you can publish it, thus getting funding for more research, and this is also the reason "failed" research is so immensely impopular, especially in capitalist america.
But isn't the point of a book that you/read/ it? Instead of skimming over the pages? I, for one, know very well what I'd like to learn from a book, so why does the author decide for me?
Not that I would read a book on Drupal, of course..
Not calling the PVV anti-islam sickens me. They literally call the islam "a big danger", so shut the hell up with your PVV-friendly stance. They're fucking racist and they know it, now stop voting for them plzkthxbye
You are very right, though. These "expert systems" have been around since the 1980s or so... And although they never really made it into everyday GP business, they did demonstrate that on some areas, they could diagnose better than a board of established doctors.
The author kindly forgot about the legal issues of this algorithm. You can't just spread people's photos to your users just because you want their opinion. These photos contain private data and cannot simply be sent to random people on the internet, not even with faces blurred away.
Great idea; legally not possible until Google becomes the president of the USA.
Well I don't know what algebra you learned, but an efficiency of 60% and outside (cold) temperature of 20 degrees celsius (293 degrees Kelvin) gives me a hot temperature of 459 degrees celsius, which is practical.
The danger here is that there aren't too many other chip makers. TI and National Semiconductor are definitely the biggest, and I can see TI building up a bit of a monopoly in some areas quickly, or at least increasing the profit margin. Perhaps we'll see some unknown chip maker rise in a few years to even the markt.
I actually do wonder why this article hit the front page. It's a hack, it's not a product, and worse it's more inconvenient than the iPad. Sure, the guys did a great build, but some hardware our heroes use in scifi just doesn't work in real life.
And even if RoHS would not be an issue, this is not the stuff that will magically make future CPUs faster. The performance bottleneck of integrated circuits is (usually) wire delays. See, signals get sent from one transistor to another using aluminium wires. Those aluminium wires have a bit of resistance, and a bit of capacitance with other wires and the silicon substrate. Heck, more often than not they have so much capacitance with other wires that they get rerouted to avoid signal interference. So if all wires act like (very small) capacitors, and they all have (a tiny bit of) resistance, it takes some time (think sub-nanoseconds here) to build up charge on the other side of a wire, and that is what causes the biggest delays. Routing all wires as efficiently as possible is a research area in itself.
Looks like you didn't get your psychology right. The problem is that creating a desktop environment is, in fact, much/easier/ to create than it is to enhance the kernel, and that makes it extremely boring. Desktop environments are trivial, but dull, to make. They are a perfect example of a job you should be getting paid for.
It is simply naive to suggest that performance issues should be fixed by disabling interesting technologies which are simply supposed to/increase/ performance. Instead, QoS is what you're looking for, and implementing this for graphics is going to be an interesting challenge.
What's it with all these people thinking that focus is the issue here? There's a theoretically unlimited number of programmers out there in the FOSS world already. The problem isn't focus: if you put the same developers currently active on a smaller number of projects, the development speed will not increase. Heck, it might even slow down, because more people will want to give the bike shed a nice color. And in that sense, the huge amount of forks and pet projects actually speeds up development, because it quickly becomes clear what works and what does not.
You really won't ever be a rich company owner, for the simple reason that you will never ever consider starting up a company, let alone the fact that you don't have the insight of what decision is good and which just consumes time.
Being able to see which decisions are actually relevant is a skill most people don't have, for it requires the "helicopterview" many companies want from management people. If you don't have it, forget about running your own company. You'll fail miserably.

does it work under wine?

How can one not know whether his/her rocket is capable of making it to Mars? Are we talking superpositions here or what?

Please stick to programming.

pix or it didn't happen
Yet another april fool? If that is the case, this one, like most others, is terrible.
That makes it only more interesting to see how people evolve over time as they are being trained in music and audio (technology).
No, they have an MTBF of 10000 years or so. MTBF != lifetime.

Explains why the guys didn't start any lawsuits yet.
my point was actually that SD supports 4GB max, but thanks anyway.
1. this cannot be anything more than a scam
2. maximum SD card size FAIL
but yeah, if they can really pull this off, i guess i'd get one too
