I live in milwaukee, just an hour north of chicago. I can assure you we are well south of the arctic circle. We receive many hours of sunlight a day even in winter.
Considering chicago's moniker, I would think they would be better off pursuing wind power though.
I don't think the desire (at least not on everyone's part) is to play the system for more than 4.5 hours at a stretch. I think people would like a portable that can be charged up and brought out at various points over a period of days without worrying that it will need a recharge. This is exactly what the DS, the Ipad, and the kindle deliver. Once charged, these devices are ready to go for a bit of fun spread out over a period of days.
A 3ds, is likely not going to be great on a camping trip (yes, i'd hope there would be more to do in the great outdoors than play 3DS, but the 3D video camera might be a cool thing to have along. And laying in the tent in the rain playing video games is pretty fun.), unless you can charge it every day.
HA! the test is used as evidence on how different devices will behave in an imaginary future where everyone demands rich web apps on future tablets. Extrapolating from this that an android tablet would "spank" the ipad is pure speculation. You don't even need the pretense of science to say you think android tablets in the future could be way faster at everything than an ipad. It's possible, but in that hypothetical future, i'll take the slightly slower ipad that lets me hop on it like the silver surfer's surfboard and fly around.
ha! i learned that lesson in the 90's. I was desperately trying to get a copy of duke nukem 3d by downloading it at the computer lab at school, saving it to a stack of floppies and bringing it back home. After several failed attempts over the course of days, i realized i would have been better off just buying the damn thing.
30 years ago, people loved to be in the phone book. What is that if not a public record of residences and phone numbers? vehicle registrations (i believe) are also a public record. Many people even love to boast about how much money they make.
I know there are reasons why we want privacy, aggressive advertising, paranoia about governments, psycho killers, etc. I wonder though if humans are inherently all that private. It seems like society didn't value privacy much until very very recently. It seems like a majority of humans have this desire to be a celebrity. I know this crowd doesn't contain a lot of people who want to win american idol or get on jersey shore, but be honest. Isn't there some yearn to publish a proof or something that calls some attention to yourself? It's a weird dichotomy that we want to be as private and famous as possible.
as a developer I think i can shed some light on why they would come forward. People complain to the developer. Apple is far better at ignoring complaints than I am. Frankly, I don't know how they do it. I strongly suspect there are people at Apple whose job is to listen to the complaints, get drunk and commiserate on how everything sucks and nobody appreciates the work they do.
I didn't RTFA, but i would think the developer gets complaints from the account holders that people are buying stuff in their game. The people probably complain to apple, but apple responds in typical stoic fashion. The consumers then complain even louder to the developer.
I had heard a lot of speculation about a retina display on the new ipad. It just didn't seem possible. Gaming seems to have become a major point of the ipad, 4096x3072 is not a resolution to take lightly. desktop hardware doesn't do realtime 3d rendering at those resolutions without serious cooling.
I got rid of tv service altogether. I often cite the proliferation of ghost hunting shows as my main motivation. That wasn't entirely syfy's fault, but they definitely weren't making my decision any tougher.
There are numerous scenarios where users think they have accessed a site from one network, but really it was another.
They were connected to ethernet and not subject to the same rules.
They were connected to a cell network, not the wifi.
They were connected to the coffee shop wifi across the street from the capital.
They were looking at the page they were looking at at home and never actually made a request through that network
.
without tracert output or router logs, or even testimony under oath it's hard to know exactly what happened.
Everyone is used to body modifications through hardware. Piercings, dental fittings, artificial joints, etc are all very mundane. This camera isn't much more exotic than dentures that snap in to a titanium post. It's certainly less impressive than an artificial hip. However, if you use the word, "rejected", you make it sound like it's somehow more tightly integrated with his body. You further the hype that this guy is somehow more of a cyborg than if i were to hang an ipod nano from my earring.
This is true. I work for a marketing agency and leveraging facebook user data is of utmost importance to our clients. You can take some comfort in knowing that our clients don't know what to do with that data once they get it. They have a database somewhere that says you like Miller High Life, and carrots. Some execs pat themselves on the back for gathering this data, then they forget about it.
Honestly, what we have observed time and time again is if a company uses their facebook page to actually engage their audience in conversation, it does far more to further the product than simply gathering bizarre statistics that they don't even know how to use.
If it's something that's not going to put people's lives in danger if it's misdesigned (i.e. a robot.....
Clearly you are not a licensed robot engineer as we all know that robots, left unchecked, pose the single greatest threat to human life. Properly designed robots are of the UTMOST importance. Your post reeks of bumbling ineptitude revealing you to not be one of the engineering elite. Therefore you will not taste the wrath of the hammer of justice. Expect no letter in the mail. Carry on.
I can't really comment on the validity of the claims in the article. It's unclear if he has indeed proven P==NP. I do know that this article clearly proves I am only of average or slightly sub average intelligence.
I'm sure many of us raise an eyebrow at the premissions requests, but most people do not. The biggest security flaw is the user. Most will grant any app permission to do anything.
I imagine the percentage of accidents due to faulty car train software is pretty low right now. I expect it to rise sharply once there are actually car trains.

where else are you going to stand in line for an iPhone?
WHOOSH

I read the summary and thought, "WTF is this willis tower? Is it somehow bigger than the sear's tower?"

Well, this would make groupon really worth something.
I bet we could get a good deal! Anyone want to go in on a groupon to buy groupon stock?

I guess you didn't try that hard as ibooks can hold all your pdfs and sync them with itunes.

It's a truly lazy person who needs a microprocessor to detect rancid tuna.

I live in Wisconsin. Just recently i noticed that almost ALL my local friends bear an uncanny resemblance to Aaron Rodgers.

The only crash I've ever had was due to an oil spill
were you driving behind Spy Hunter?
