Even if it is a correct assumption, what feedback would they receive that the pump is infusing at the wrong rate?
On the inline pumps, the medicine is added to a bag of ringer's lactate and has a conventional dripping flow meter attached to it before it goes into the pump. The pump regulates the flow of the medicine into the patient, but you can calculate the flow rate by looking at the drips.
In a pain pump, there's a syringe containing the pain meds, and you can watch the syringe depress as meds are requested by the patient and see exactly how much is being dispensed.
And I don't want my 48-core machine to be fucking mobile. It means I would then be expected to take my work everywhere with me. Fuck that. Until we learn how to respect the sanctity of vacation time in the US and bring up the average vacation length for workers to something near European standard I would rather see this in a non-mobile version first.
I don't think you have anything to worry about. They're not making a portable deep fryer, this is a computer.
If the ultimate goal is to make portable power sipping devices, then do just that. Power consumption on Intel processors has been far behind ARM processors because the engineering tradeoffs made for x86 processors always assumed a desktop environment. You're going to make tradeoffs, and they should be made with the ultimate goal of having a mobile processor not a desktop.
No doubt this technology will find its way to desktops, the same way that all-in-one desktops are using laptop components.
No, the Start Page is way better at conveying information than the iPad ever was. When I turn on the computer, it presents me relevant information. More than simply the number of emails I have unread in my inbox. Everything I'm interested in is right there on a single surface, not hidden on other pages or folders requiring burrowing into the UI to access.
The Vivo Tab RT is 525g which is significantly less than my iPad (64Gb Verizon LTE) at 662g (this assumes that the retina display iPad weighs the same as the New iPad, which is the model I have. That's not available on the Apple Store any more). When I hold the Vivo Tab RT in my hand the way I'd use my iPad, it's much more comfortable. With the iPad, it would slip so I'd have to hold the iPad with a finger at the bottom in order to keep it in place. I've got a callous on the pinkie finger of my left hand from holding it. I don't need to do that with the Vivo. I can hold it from the edge in either portrait or landscape mode with a single hand without issue. I was reading The Cloud Atlas for several hours on Saturday without a problem. The rubberized antenna cover on the back of the Vivo Tab also makes it easier to hold.
The decreased weight makes it easier to balance the device with my fingers, instead of having to hold it with gripped hands. This makes typing and using onscreen controls easier.
The weight with the keyboard isn't as significant, because I doubt I'll be hold the device with the keyboard the same way that I hold the tablet by itself. The significance of the weight isn't for toting-around purposes, it's for holding-in-one-hand purposes.
I don't think anyone has the keyboard yet. Asus is going to send them out to us. I'd assume this means that they weren't ready for the big roll out last Friday. The reason I chose the Vivo Tab over the Surface was because the Vivo keyboard includes a supplemental battery. That increased their stated battery life to 16 hours.
But then he bought the digital reproduction rights to a TON of classic art collections. Also, I'm pretty sure he still doesn't have 512p TVs around his house.
I read that with his system a user of his house would input their preferences and the monitors would display the art or pictures they liked as they moved from room to room. Pr0n!
I think Steve should have kept to his creative process of letting Jony Ive do all the heavy lifting and he just rubber stamping his imprimateur on the design.
One of the features that I look forward to using in the Windows 8 world is the ability to automatically sync data between like programs on different devices. I'm already seeing that somewhat on my Windows 8 laptop (a Macbook Pro), and the Vivo Tab RT I picked up on Friday. Everything is tied in to my single account and everything syncs up nicely.
I've been waiting for someone to get this right. I thought Apple was going to be the one, hence the MacBook, iPad, and iPhone purchases, but syncing data between these devices is still fairly archaic. Google nearly had me when they allowed devices to link to my Google account. Microsoft is taking home the prize for the seamless integration between my two devices. When WIndows Phone 8 comes out for Verizon, I'm there with bells on.
And to pre-empt any accusations: I'm a total shill for Microsoft. That's why I have all my Apple stuff, and a Google Nexus 7. That's also why I bought an Asus RT tablet.
I bought the Vivo Tab RT on Friday, and I can say for a fact that it IS more than what my iPad (3rd gen) is. My only disappointments with the device came when I forgot that I was on my tablet and tried to do things that I can only do on my PC running Windows 8. Most of those were due to Flash being missing on the tablet. Adobe says that's coming, so it gets a pass for now.
My only other disappointment was that I had bought books on iBooks that aren't going to be available on Windows (I don't think). All my Kindle and Nook stuff was available through the Kindle app and the Nook web client/epub downloads.
I was just looking for a lighter replacement for my iPad and I think I got an acceptable laptop replacement. Hopefully my iCallous on my pinkie finger will go away with this lighter device.
Oh, it will be. Why do you think Apple wanted us all to ease into buying all our software on the App Store in OSX? It's not for OUR financial health...
Well, I think people are born ignorant and stay that way to varying degrees in different subjects. I've met people who are geniuses when it comes to performing some task that I've never been particularly adept at, but I (with my silly prejudices) wouldn't consider intelligent.
I think IQ tests aren't particularly useful at determining anything other than competence at taking IQ tests.
You ought to brush up on your history. Read about the French Revolution, the Mexican Revolution, Chairman's Mao's purges, Stalin's purges. Hell, Atheists have killed more people in the name of atheism in the last century than all of the religious wars in all of history.
For the money, an Associate's Degree at a Community College would impress me more than an ITT degree, and it would cost you a lot less. At a CC you can study CS or IT from people who know their subjects well, and have a passion to teach.
Don't get me wrong, I think that a lot can be learned from a technical college, and I've met quite a few people who have taught there and know what they're doing, but bang-for-your-buck can 't be beaten at a Community College.

Now that Lucas isn't steering the boat, they could release the original three films unmolested.
Emperor is dead. Vader comes back from the Dark Side and also dies. Luke & Leia know they're siblings.
Seriously, what's the plot going to be?
Jar-Jar becomes a Jedi!

Oh, then why doesn't the article title say that its a book that's coming out? Instead, the article is framed like its a current event.
I concur, slap the shit out of Timothy for posting an article about a book release and trying to make it look like a current event.
It depends on who you want to troll.

Someone really screwed up, and didn't RTFA.

Yeah, like, "he's a shill for the competition.".
Chop 'em off and it's PG13.
As long as you don't show the nipples.
Oh, I thought you were going to say mal-practice insurance.
I don't think it's lower than conspiracy theorists...
I believe Twin Peaks pioneered this method, but it was perfected by The X-Files.

You don't have to behead someone to be a bigot.
Yes, I don't understand humor, either.
