Your agenda (GTK HTML5 webapp) knows when you need to wake up and plays your most listened song over Bluetooth to wake you up.But before that happens, the server gives the command to the coffee machine to warm up. All the lights switch on, to destroy the melatonin in your system. The Google self driving car parks in front of your house on time. Your phone tells you as a messenger not to forget your suitcase upon leaving the building. The climate control goes on standby and your tablet is preloaded with relevant presentations for the day. Slashdot articles are read to you in the traffic yam. Etcetera.
Large coorporations should be able to invest a ton of money into R&D. They need these patents for revenue.
The only thing that sucks about it is this: free software (as in beer also) gets hurt in the process.
So why not keep the patent laws and pass a second one (or include a section in the former), that says: "may not use patents in software to make a profit from, or to compensate expenses".
What is do is play Sudoku with knowledge. And the problem I'm usualy having with math (aside from not having a very broad understanding of the logical implementation) is that it can become a very... very... very tough (from my perspective) Sudoku puzzle.
But the real problem I'm having is just not giving up. That, combined with so little understanding of it, drives me nuts. So yes; you're right.
I have a question: (excuse me for the realy bad formatting)
If the result of prime numbers (plotted), can be formulated as e^x, where Xaxis = numbers (zero to infinity) v Yaxis = [amount of unique distances observed] ; and plotted against the plotting of prime numbers themselves ; and plot a formula_3 that averages the coordinates that both euclidean functions output, towards infinity, through where they almost intersect ; and form a formula_4 that equals the offset of the two euclidean function, relative to formula_3, towards infinity ; and plot two fomulas that offset formula_3 by formula_4 in both 'directions' ; then Doesn't it make a lot of sense?
I'm terribly sorry for my bad mathmetics and would welcome a rant in which someone would explain why and where I'm making a mistake.
The DSM is not about diagnosis, but some retards use it that way. The purpose of the DSM is being a psychiatric dictionary. That means if psychiatrist talk about [illness xyz] then they are reffering to the collection of symption [a, b, c, d].
And yes we needed the DSM, but it has become irrelevant. You see; one can research the brain of a mouse; just scrap this and that away and see what happens. With humans on the other hand, this can't be done in vivo ("while alive"). So people started to gather common collection of symptoms so they could put a label on a person with these symptoms, and ask the 'patient' permission to study the structure of their brain after death.
Now that brain research has vastly improved, all kinds of overlaps start to appear with common 'components'. Say a person with ADHD has RDS and DAT ("dope transport from here to there in brain") problems.
Now that the mesolymbic pathway has been found not to be a pleasure centre, but more of a 'conscious intersection' of the brain, using a serotonine feedback loop to modulate dopaminergic release, all these 'illnesses' start to make a lot of sense. Dopamine actualy sort of highlights/projects emotionaly charged 'thoughts' into human consciousness.
Now all of a sudden check what effects PTSD has on hormone release. Suddenly bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, hallunications, paranoia, anxiety, autism, PDD, psychosocial all make sense. An example:
Parents neglect child. Child doesn't learn coping mechanisms. No coping mechanisms for strong emotional experiences result in trauma. Trauma means; brain cannot process said experience, resulting in PTSD. PTSD effects are less serotonine (depression), thus less oxytocine(autism, thus PDD thus psychosocial leads to "schizophrenia), less dopamine (looks like ADHD, but isn't), more cortisol (stress, self-consciousness skyrockets, anxiety) and more estrogen (hello male, here comes your body dismorphic disorder). And so on and so forth...
I'll give you an example: Imageine this guy is responsible for coding some kind of cashflow algorithm in accounting software. What you guys are going to be doing is adjusting your own code accordingly: working around the bugs.
A month or two later, you all start to get together to investiga why suddenly everything seems so disasterous. Suddenly you all spontaniously find out it is this single asshole who fscks up the entire codebase.
Armed with this spontaniously acquired knowledge you all go up to upper management and say:
We were all so productive and on schedule. The problem was that suddenly we all got miles behind on schedule [for the software that makes the company a shitload of money].
Since we are all so productive and good working class heroes, we started to investigate the issue, unpayed and in overtime. We found out that mr. A. Cocksucker messed up the entire CVS. Now the annual profit prediction will plummet.
Steve and Jack were already trying to get this guy to learn the [git manpage], but we didn't know mr. Cocksucker was so uncapable that he would absolutely ruin the perfect planning of our software that we put soooo much sweat and tears into [bla bla bla].
We wanted to tell you this because we want you to know on time, because we all love our work and we would be so sad [of course not] if the beloved customers would not benifit from our efforts. We absolutely love this company and our software and we would like to be able to have meaning in our day-to-day jobs of hard labour. [boo-fscking-hoo]
Manager: *I need to get this guy fired* "What is the damage?"
We realy can't work around this any longer, which is why we investigated this tragedy in the first place. We need to rollback at least [time it took from start to finnish].
Asshole above your social status gets fired, nicer code can be written and CVS horrors are over.
You let him crash and burn. You put oil on the fire, everytime gets pissed of at this guy. Later on, you get together and talk to his manager/boss/supervisor.
You do this in a clever way; as in under the radar. This, however, requires knowledge of social mechanics.
If you try to keep that person from crashing and burning; you'll have to deal with it, for as long as you work with this guy.
PS: the mistake you are making, that that the visual cortex of the human brain, does: A. Everything in linear stages, with parallel computation, and; B. Likes to not waste calculation power on mundane things like: "Realy? Is that lawn all grass? Let's examine every shape first, in order to make sure there is no soldier out there with cammo, who might just try to shoot me", and; C. That's where optical illusions come into play: the cortex uses a shitload of shortcuts.
Of course you model would work if there are no shortcuts, but that would be stupid. Unless you try to create some image technology for DARPA, but that's not a human-like form of intelligence. (it's supposed to be better, uh-huh).
These guys are total idiots. There is this thing called research and it's about figuring out how the human brain works. And it's fscking simple: 1. Distance: difference in contrast; (sky has the least amount of it, so everything with a bigger contrast with the least contrast is closest) 2. Motion: bright lights; (for spatial orientation) 3. Depth: two camera's; (compare double images appart) 4. Grouping information: color; (green shit is all nature, gray shit is all building) 5. Recognition: shapes + colors; (does it look like shit I've identified before? If not; store properties, otherwise: already identified until focus on it for a longer period); 6. Et-fscking-cetera.
Also "Spooky action at a distance" == Einstein fail...
But nothing can go faster than light, because time is a measurement of change. Something can't possibly go faster, unless it doesn't change but folds dimensionaly. (E8, Lisi, standard model and information theory).
Physics are written in Math. Math is written in logic. Logic is form.
If we are to believe the theory (and there is no point in not doing that after 20.000 years of radation before the big bang started happening) that the Higgs Boson is made out of form(ing a shitload of dimensions), then dark matter is simply another dimensional fold. Once these folds clash, they unfold eachother, leaving nothing but nothing, realy.
And then there is the gravity thing, which is, of course, Einstein's stuff; it's the Newton physics of the holographic universe interpretation. In other words: only valid when it comes to interpretation.
There is no gravity, if we are to believe information theory (and one would be a genius to disprove). In fact, we don't even have evidence of gravity, so information theory comes closest to this. But anyway: the universe is like the WipEout HD Fury Playstation 3 disc: the actual raster (so called space time bla bla bla) is 2D. So a very large polygon+texture+shader model could eat up a lot of space on the disk surface and therefore come close to a small model. It doesn't mean that on the 3D TV, the model actually appears close to the large polygon model, displayed 'holographicaly', but the actual space between the storage surface of the game disc is small, faking some 'warped BluRay SpaceTime'.
So there is no gravity thing going on. Gravitational effects are... no wait: the effect is gravity, and is not going on at the dark matter information level. And since you don't want ships made out of matter to smash into anti-matter, because that's not what Huston wants to hear, you could still put a highway there, by simply increasing mass between point A and B, which means less storage between point A and B, which means less shit going on between A and B, which means less 'time' going on between A and B, which means 'OMG TUNNEL!!!!!1111 one one eleven" aka no distance whatsoever.
So there I crushed the magic behind the universe. Where is my price?
Which is because the MPAA and our friends at MPEG-LA were like: "Hello there. We create non-workaeble movie copies. That is, unless you use MPEG4. Of course the MPEG 4 license from MPEG-LA restricts vendors to play anything not obscurely crappy copyprotected. But hey... We have the Copyright, which is a law we lobbied to be passed, to make sure nobody may ever make useful copies. Of course nobody cared because movies cost money and we need to get paid. It just that we decided to earn money, our way. So now everybody is fscked, because we don't have a legitemate way to earn money, without a law that grands us a monopoly on a piece of work."
And then smart people ignored DRM and John Doe's didn't care. They soon will, but then the rest of us is forced to go completely Free Software mad and decided to put our spare time to better use.
Now where are the people who go outside? Or should I learn some more about computing, like I did before by learning about DRM? I'm sure my time wil have been spend useful while others wasted theirs, watching DRM copies of G.I. Joe or some other mindless crap that is only as useful for living for as long as it's being watched.
Are just saying it is like that or can you realy show me that that's actualy the case?
If you can show me, it just means your comment is just as unworthy as you cracking skills, meaning your comment is worthless. If you can prove yourself wrong, then you are wrong. If you can't even know, then your comments mean nothing. If you can show me proof that human mistakes are avoidable, then you are smart enough to know that Apple didn't avoid them.
You are at the very least not right. Judging by past evidence made, very probably wrong. That makes my comment only more probable, so thanks for commenting me up.

Cloud management... is is gigantic pile of virtualization of:
1. Networking; (NaaS)
2. Hardware; (IaaS)
3. Computing environments, and; (PaaS)
4. Applications. (SaaS)
So uhm... Openstack should run fine on RHEL and Fedora, utilizing Linux kernel features, making use of a hypervisor...
There is something about Steam that requires the lowest level of memmory access in the Linux kernel.
Take over Steam; exploit waiting to happen.
The reason I got into studying embedded systems is to work on ubiquitous computing:
-Put SoC's into everything;
-Hook everything to a hybrid cloud; (NaaS)
-Serve it with a cloud server at home; (RedHat OpenStack distro on Fedora)
-Create an XML-based protocol on top;
-Have it all talk to each other;
-Build it all on Minix 3; (so it never crashes and every device server has to be hacked seperately)
-Enjoy the shit out of modern life!
