Neurons (IPA:/njËÉ'ÉÉ'ns/, also known as neurones and nerve cells) are electrically excitable cells in the nervous system that process and transmit information. Neurons are not affected by QM effects as you say, however the information traveling in a neural network could be. Our brain may be exploiting quantum effects for great amounts of processing in parallel.
If we are able to copy ourselves to electric devices, then we have just built a new life form, made of metal and electricity. That way we can survive in the universe, outside of the constrains here on Earth, no need for oxygen and food. We can travel across the galaxies, using some other kind of power, readily available. Think of it, as evolution finding a way to survive in the Universe.
It may not be exactly the same in every language, but there might be some similarities. With enough data and a good training set you can learn the most specific and most general hypothesis. Then, you have a representation of the hypothesis space (from specific to general) you are interested in, i.e to classify the word "car" in all languages.
Some magnetic levitation involving rubies, VM (Ware?), more gems, object oriented databases (didn't they die?), World of Warcraft, rails (magnetic levitation again?), and, finally, conference. Well at least you got the conference right, I thought the RAILS configuration file got wowed somehow!
I wanted to find the centre of Wikipedia, that is, the article that is closest to all other articles
Betweenness is a centrality measure of a vertex within a graph. Vertices that occur on many shortest paths between other vertices have higher betweenness than those that do not (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrality)
Animals before earthquakes have precursors, unusual to report.
Maluo sheep into cattle do not ring, pig dogs Luanyao not cannibalism.
Ducks do not make the water on shore, Ji fly tree called loudly.
Bingtianxuede dispatched the snake, rat dementia move defectors.
Shuer also hit the rabbit jumped, the fish to panic the water jump.
Bees group moved to downtown Hong Hong, Jingfei not homing pigeons.
You mean illegal knowledge transfer. You see there is a difference say from linux torrents and movie torrents. I don't see anyone wanting to shutdown this site: http://linuxtracker.org/
and no one wants to see indiana jones and the kingdom of the crystal skull in your parent's basement by yourself on a 19 inch monitor You must be new here!
The word android is a combination of Ancient Greek andros and the suffix -oid, which literally means "in the form of a man."
Why, oh why, did you have to choose this name for your project since it does not have a form of a man AND confuses MILLIONS of/. readers everytime we get a headline about Android?! MILLIONS I SAID!
Indeed, From TFA: "We can trick Firefox itself in traversing directories back".
but then it says: "we are able to read out all preferences set in Firefox, or just open or include about every file stored in the Mozilla program files directory"
Since TFA is not clear, I have tried it myself and I WAS NOT ABLE TO TRAVERSE a directory back with resource:///../
So the only files someone can read with this vuln are the files inside firefox directory which from what I can see are just default files and no cookies or passwords.
If anyone thinks any different please let me know.
Why everyone in here thinks of teleportation as a copy/paste method? I have a different concept of teleportation which has nothing to do with copying:
Think of an x dimensional object in a y dimensional world where x smaller than y. For example imagine a 2 dimensional character (a dot on a piece of paper). If we were to fold that piece of paper to make a cylinder, then the east edge of the paper would meet with the west edge. If the dot was moving ( had life) and walked from the east to the west while the paper was folded, then in its own percepts it would seem it had teleported from the east to the west in one step (it wouldn't perceive that the paper(its world) was actually folded, rather it would just perceive that there is a repeating pattern, just like 'asteroids':)
Now, if we were able to manipulate such 'folding' and create paths from one edge to the other in our 3 dimensional space then we would say that we can teleport something from one place to the other.
Blizzard Exec #2: What kind of person would do this?
Blizzard Exec #1: Only one kind... Whoever this person is, he has played world of warcraft nearly ever hour, of every day, for the past year and a half. Gentlemen we are dealing with someone here who has absolutely no life.

My uncle, who has no clue about computer games was usually playing backgammon with other players online. Well sometimes when the other player leaves, the game continues with the machine being your opponent. My uncle never noticed a thing and he got fooled by the computer several times. I remember once when he was quite angry with the "other player" and when I went over to see what's going on, I embarrassingly said to my uncle "this is the computer you are playing with it says on the left corner!
Now isn't that the point of a Turing Test? And how intelligent is a machine if it passes a Turing Test? I mean intelligence is not only that! It can't be...I think I (or all of us here) misunderstood the Turing Test somehow.

I have a feeling there are going to be a lot of search entries for ls in Google's logs tonight..

how about replacing /bin/login then?
So for you a security expert must know html and all the bull crap around it? Well, I'm sorry but one has nothing to do with the other.
Wood? Cutting down more trees for enclosing your game console is not environment-friendly!

I had no idea the Internet released Internet2. I'm going to download it right now! where's the torrent?

you know this is /. when a discussion about "How water Forms in Interstellar Space at 10K" turns into a discussion about God, religion, the cosmos etc.
this is why i like this place:)
I know..I know..
May I be the first to say WTFV! ( i suppose /. does not need explanation on what WTFV means)
Reminds me of Microsoft Works

This has been known since Southpark WoW episode:
Kyle: [female mage] Wow, look at all these people playing right now.
Cartman: Yeah, it's bullcrap. I'll bet half of these people are Koreans.
