Are you sure you are at the real pay pal site? Check the address bar. Check your dns setting and hope to god your router or any router along the route was not comprimised.
Seriously though, whether its ie or safari, the internet is just plain insecure these days.
So really this fan can convert up to 7% of the waste heat. This doesn't sound very impressive, but as long as it provides a little bit of convection it'll be better than passive cooling.
Because its not an issue, the only problem is that you have to be logged on with a specific xbox live account to play. Big deal.
The misleading summary is just trying to be sensationalist. FAIL!
I had no idea http://www.accenture.com/ had robotics researchers. When I was working there, developing anything new was to be avoided if at all possible.
Nope, they're NOT meant for anything as powerful as TVs or Computers
Magnetic coupling or RF frequency whatever, its all electro-magnetic radiation at the end of the day. Now go look at the back of your computer and see how much power it takes to run (350W?), guess what happens when you have 350W of electro-magnetic radiation blasting across your living room. I'd say "JUST BREAK A HOLE IN THE DOOR OF YOUR MICROWAVE".
A planet with liquid water and ample supply of oxygen might be very rare in the universe.
Of course, I'm been a bit anthropic in assuming aliens might require the same things to live that we do.
Presumably there is still some moving of either the lens or the sensor. The Accelerometer would just replace the gyroscope to get feedback on what movement is necessary.
Accelerometers are very small and cheap these days.
Its math speak actually. Well, math speak and a pun. He is talking about an exceptional Lie group that is also a simple Lie group. Both of which have exact mathematical definitions.
Thats what unifying physics is all about. Coming up with one theory to explain everything that used to take multiple, completely unrelated theories to explain
By your analogy, he is showing that apples and oranges are really just different types of fruits.
The best example I can think of is Maxwell's electro-magnetism equations. It might seem obvious today, but it was an amazing breakthrough to realise that electrical fields, currents and magnetism were really just two sides of the same coin. Most lay people of that time must have thought it was a childish misunderstanding to relate lightning and what makes a compass work
I can't speak for whether the theory is flawed or not, but I think you're a little too quick to dismiss it based on high school seniors knowledge.
Just because they have a new API for getting the random numbers, it doesn't mean that they are using different algorithms for generating those random numbers. Also, they much still have the old APIs in there, otherwise, a lot of programs would fail to work. Since most of the software out there was written pre-Vista, and written to run on Vista, XP, and 2000, it's conceivable that applications on these operating systems are using the vulnerable code.
Assuming they have the same API doesn't mean the RN generator is using the same algorithm either.
I don't think a true (not pseudo) random number API has any guarantees that the returned values will be reproducible.
How much more likely are you to get nailed by an evil-doer if you wait a couple of days before installing an update to make sure there's no problem with it?
Very bloody likely. These evil-doers tend to reverse engineer new patches as soon as they come out. Then use the original exploits to hack computers that don't update in time.
Seems to me though that even with aggregated data, you could reverse-mine it In Soviet Russia, data mines you!
Seriously though, what do you mean by reverse-mining?
If I tell you that the my age and the age of a sample of my officemates has a mean of 34 and a standard deviation of 9.
How do you reverse mine that to get my age?
Nah mate,
I'm pretty sure they were talking about footy codes. We noticed Americans were tossing the footy instead of punching it, and had to spy on them to figure out what this new code was. It was code named "GridIron" apparently.
How on earth could you anticipate this failure mode?
You can anticipate this failure mode quite easily.
Its happened last month, and the month before, and the month before...
The parent obviously didn't read the article, or even the summary. The flaw was from computers REBOOTING at the same time, nothing to do with what Microsoft was patching.

A better chip manufacturing process is not a "downgrade" at all.
Really its an upgrade in every way:
1. Cheaper to manufacture.
2. Uses less power
3. Runs cooler.
4. Takes up less space.
The uses less power / runs cooler can in fact be traded off for more performance by overclocking.
Immersion patented a specific method for causing haptic feedback.
Namely using a rotating off-centred mass to cause a device to vibrate and give feedback to the user.
This is a perfectly legitimate patent for a new mechanical contraption.

Exactly how much of what you're suggesting is legal?

COP isn't a percentage. And I have no idea how you pulled 28 degrees out off 70%
I suspect 70% efficiency means they can reach 70% of the theoretical limit maximum at these temperatures. The theoretical limit for heat reservoirs of 55C and 25C is about 10% http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnot_heat_engine#Carnot.27s_theorem.

Imagine the increase in profit if Exxon-Mobil stopped spending billions prospecting new oil field, and gave it all back to the stockholders. Oh wait.

About 7 years ago, my friend and I joked about how horrible it would be if Jordan died before he finished writing the series. :*(

The parent does not deserve to be modded Troll. He has a valid argument whether you agree with it or not.
NASA is barely founded. It can only be wasteful if it had money to waste.
