There was a story a few days ago about a copper mesh that pulled moisture out of the air to create drinking water in the desert. Sounds to me that could be combined with this to further pull moisture from the clothes, maybe make the drum out of the wunderstuff and use the ultrasonics to shake the water from the drum.
You read the wrong testament. NT is just the story of a sales campaign. OT is a great read, great stories, great characters. I know the christians are only referring to the NT when they say the bible, but the OT is the page turner.
Maybe it works even better for a sailboat on the ocean. A silent water maker that can generate a few liters of water each day sound pretty useful to me even when not in the desert.
Well, monetizing the information they collect. we see from your viewing habits you like "Thomas the tank engine" during the day and "Breaking Bad" after 10pm. Can we interest you in some schizophrenia medicine?
I don't doubt that the premise of this article is true - that by objective measures the humble lead better. but...
1) To be leader you have to be elected, if the charismatic-narcissists are better at getting elected then that is at least one aspect in which they make better leaders
2) I'm not sure people want leaders in top positions, they tend to want people to affirm their pre-formed opinions and act as if they were a surrogate for the voter. The last thing they want them to do is lead in the sense of make a case for changing the voter's opinion.
3) I think people see themselves as the leader, and want to pick someone to represent them that they most aspire to be (from the usually poor list of available candidates). If they had to invent Tyler Durden would they pick a humble man - nope...
You're usually pretty safe from being bumped once you're actually on the plane though. Silly people, imagining that once they've paid for something they have any kind of rights.
And it's all linked by SSN. If every industry were using their own identifiers instead of the SSN then a few isolated data loss events would be less significant. It's time the government came up with a better identifier, and mandate that it only used it for government purposes.
so we prevented him doing what we wanted him to do in punishment for doing the thing we didn't want him to do. I guess he'll go work in a bank now.
So it sounds like his community is punished 3x. Lost the original data, lost a phamacist serving the community, lost the records he leaks from whatever new job he winds up in.
It would have been better to have him continue in pharmacy and pay for enhanced data protection services / audits.
I enjoyed the drive, but then I was as stressed out as all hell and the drive calmed me down, also I agree that the best part of the drive was on the LA side of the border, through airboat country, past Jimmy Swaggart's place. As it turned out I drove past Houston and wound up in Hempstead - that was an adventure too. I wound up in the "wrong" pizza hut, met some great people. Good times, I should wildly underestimate the distance between places when looking at rental car company maps and get lost more often.
Wouldn't it be cheaper to have Gumbo and BBQ flown into Houston, if you do it on May 11th Joe Ely will be in town. Save the trip to NOLA until you have the time to take the bus - there's plenty to see on the way, I've done the drive.
The big draw of java has to be the inter-changeability of programmers. Sure there are the rock stars, but for every rock star there are many people that corporations have come to see as being generic programmers in various tiers of accomplishment, that they can draw from a large pool and they know what they can generally expect from each level.
I think it makes sense to learn another language (programming or otherwise) though I think I'd look at one of the classics over scala, maybe even choose clojure
Our town of ~50k runs a fleet of around a dozen buses. There is no fare, they are free to ride. They run around empty mostly. The bus stops are planted at the most dangerous and inconvenient places, the buses have a little "yield" sign on the back that flashes to tell you the driver isn't looking when they pull out
We also pay for a large school bus fleet, so far as I can tell there's no co-ordination in scheduling between the fleets and it's almost impossible for high school kids to ride out to the high school and back, so all out of hours activities require additional buses or car trips. The routes are weird, I'd have said geometrically impossible if I had not seen them. The buses change route number at various point along the ride. The downtown transit center is on prime real estate
I've lived in cities with well used efficient public transport that served the public well and I love it, big fan
I wish our city planners had visited one of those cities at some point
It would be interesting to know how the software is optimized for ride sharing, I would imagine that it's possible to be fairly cynical about that.
Plus the town is probably pretty small, given that it only has 32Ki population, and small buses are reasonably fuel efficient these days. So I would have thought that two drivers with a small bus could pretty well clean up all the available business, the subsidy and the fares in and out of hours. Seems like a good deal for uber and a couple of drivers sharing the bus. I dare say that outside of "public transit" hours they can go back to charging full fare.
It will be interesting to see what evolves
I'd also be interested to see if any software company recognizes a market to sell rideshare coordination software to local taxi companies, I'll bet the council would have picked a locally owned company over uber if they had met the requirements, but having said that I don't see why a human taxi dispatcher could not set up ride sharing too, just text them and they'll figure it all out and text back when the bus will pick you up
The barriers I've encountered are typically only coincidental to C. It's that half the code appears to be written in m4 or something equally impenetrable.
DDR3-1600 RAM runs at 12.8GB/s. If we wanted to read a 1.2GB/s couldn't we have a RAM chip, some fancy logic, and a delay line. That is, continuously clock the RAM contents around the delay line and then wait for it to come back in when you want to read it out.
Come to think of it, that just adds read latency, once your patch of delay line comes around you can read it at 12.8GB/s.
probably costs a ton of power, and of course it's volatile, but if 9/10ths of the memory is on the bus you get a lot of value for the RAM.

That explains why in a galaxy far, far away with much more advanced technology than we have, no-one can hit shit with a weapon.

One shouldn't compromise on values.

I'm pretty sure I've seen similar inventions demo'd at trade shows
That all sounds very reasonable. What are the odds that they walked up to the guy and explained it like you wrote ?
I don't know, there's something about those announcements that always reminds me of the Grapes of wrath.

maybe it's a task that is not well suited to the GPU, so it performs little better than general purpose hardware.
I think that went over your head unimpeded.

Imminent death predicted. You have 4 milliseconds to take control. Thank you for choosing IBM. Would you like Watson to choose a casket for you ?
Racist hardware then...
