Isn't it obvious? Salmon DNA is cheap and easy to get! Just take any fish, cut it open, rip out the testicles, then squeeze them. Bam! Instant DNA with no waste to anything, and boy do you get a lot!
If a corrupt house and a corrupt senate in the US supported a corrupt president then there would be no impeachment. This is why the second amendment is the right to bear arms so we can retake the government by force.
actually your iphone programs do read/write files (that aspect is hidden from the user) and they are capable of creating complicated data structures. They were created with a general purpose programming language, as opposed to a tool that responds to counters, positions, collisions, and button presses, and most likely makes array-type operations cumbersome and time consuming.
I think what he means is that is it more like the warcraft 3 level editor than programming, in which case I think the answer is "yes", although in reality it sounds like it is more like a 3d Klik and Play. For example, I don't forsee the ability to write to a file and read from a file or create complicated data structures as being features.
And yet after years and years, Online gameplay will still slow to a crawl because someone's graphics are too high, because apparently implementing frameskip in their stupid engine is *THAT* hard.
The ping requirements make this unfeasible. As more "casual" people get connections that trade-off bandwidth for latency (such as wireless broadband or just plain crappy ISPs that 80% of the US has to deal with) I don't see how this could ever be usable except for a select few.
nah, they wouldn't have mod points, unless you are suggesting slashdot would be slashdotted.
Really I'm referring to the concept though, not slashdot specifically (although as a short term solution slashdot would work) but rather a website fairly identical to slashdot as a means of pushing out government inquiries to the public and receiving unsolicited requests of discussion.
Ok, so am I the only person on slashdot who thinks slashdot's "ask slashdot" system is by far the best way to solicit responses from people on a mass scale (not sarcastic)? So far the government's attempt at getting "public input" has been ignorant of the better options... have you seen their open government website (http://mixedink.com/OpenGov/)? You can't even post more than a page for a draft on what you think should be done about something. There's a huge god damn difference between "I think you should do X" and "I think you should do X and this is how because I know I can't trust you to do it right".
And christ, a good portion of the responses on the open government website are off topic or unreadable/rambling. Almost 100% of it is rhetoric, or calls for expanding upon current ineffective government resources via the means of existing ineffective government resources.
If I put my iphone in my front pants pocket while running MLB's app that lets you listen to the radio, I can feel the radio making my leg feel slightly warm/sore on the leg that I put my iphone in (this is difficult to describe), which I don't feel when the iphone is in stand-by. If you read the manual it says that the iphone can exceed FTC limits set for cell phone radiation when in active usage. I don't think its a placebo effect, although it would be interesting to run an experiment sometime to determine if it is or not. I also don't think it is due to the heat generated by the phone, since its not just warm but also sore.
Just a thought. I guess if I get cancer on my right leg in my thigh then I know who to sue.
Actually if my history teacher serves me right, democracy didn't really work that well. One of the philosophers, I forget who, came up with a republic because of this. He saw a flaw and came up with a solution.
So registering on the site isn't https. I know this isn't credit card information but still, I wonder how many people use the same password for this as they do their email. Too easy to snoop such a high profile web server.
Everyone who says they guessed is dead wrong. They dont guess they just spam out the cards. I've gotten a couple of these cards in the mail starting from when my car is less than a year old and I have a 10 year power train warranty.
The crooks are the ones giving them this information. They should be thrown in jail because obviously they give out my personal contact information without discretion to if I care or not. If a man was passing out your address and the location of all the locks in your house to hobos who walked by him who would you arrest? The hobos or the man?
well snooping isn't the only concern, how do you get the lay-man to connect to an ad-hoc network while at the same time keeping their computer safe from viruses and hacking? You really can't count on that. Once their software firewall goes up the ad-hoc network will probably quit working for that user.
I mean, back in college, I had someone putting files on my machine without my permission using the school's secure wireless network. I had disabled file sharing and they somehow re-enabled it, then put the file there. Imagine on an insecure network what would happen...
If nobody has done it before, then what motivation do I have to spend money on something risky? If it succeeds a lot of other people are just going to steal my idea and over saturate my market with competition.
If I patent the idea it protects me from competition, which is important if there really is only room for 1 or 2 sites like mine, and any more would result in all being losers. It encourages me to take the risk that I otherwise wouldn't attempt.
However, what if my implementation is complete crap? The idea itself isn't very novel, do I deserve the right to sue or get money for an idea I'm very sure others have come up with well before hand since it is obvious? If I had implemented the idea correctly would I even have someone else to sue (since another person wouldn't have anything to gain)?
I think MS's TrueSkill is an example of that third point. Flat out, their implementation of it has always been wrong and they have to modify it from their patent in order to get it to work properly. However, their patent is very broad, and is really one-upped by prior art. It is nothing more than a sorting algorithm slightly modified for skill to take into account the potential for tieing.
I wouldn't bother. Not only is this hard to set up, very hard, but it could easily be brought down or snooped on due to a lack of security on the network itself. Might as well just use hand radios.
Best way is to resolve this to run public protests to demand the government show a will of good faith and re-run the election with an international body moderating and a seperate international organization running the election. They can't obstruct communication forever
Survival of the most unable to keep it in their pants.
My fiancee and I used to be "no more than 3 children, we want to be an example for others not to overpopulate the Earth".
Then we saw octomom.
We're going to fuck like rabbits after we get married for 20 years now to try to offset idiots like her. When starvation hits because the Earth can no longer support the number of humans on it, the smart humans hopefully won't be outnumbered as much.

I'm going to take a guess and say its the company where he *used* to work
I think he's been playing too much command and conquer.

I can't believe I've this read this far in the comments and have yet to see a reference to Klik and Play
Certainly good memories with that program.

Black on avocado is the color scheme I use at work. A lot easier on the eyes, but takes getting used to for everyone else.

Just because they burp less doesn't necessarily mean they produce less methane... "We made a cow that burps less. However, it farts more."

You have to disable flashblock.
