Email and IM haven't gone away have they? Twitter has been around for three years now, and really growing in mindshare and popularity for two. It's not going anywhere.
What we should do is have a first to file system (like the rest of the world) instead of the first to invent. This would eliminate thousands of hours scientists spend on notebooks.
This encourages companies to share instead of keeping ideas locked up in notebooks and getting patents later.
That's of successful copies... The Y chromosome is highly conserved because there is no back up to it.
So the successful rate is high for this highly conserved region of successful copies, but what about the non-successful mutations? E.g., All the stocks that my grandfather invested in 1900 and that are still around today, have made me a lot of money. He had a great accuracy investing rate.
Usually winter roads are destroyed because of the expansion of water that freezes inside it. A friend of mine said that Minnesota roads are great because they're alway frozen during the winter (can anyone confirm this?)
This shows how reduced dietary intake decreased ageing. This would be consistent to support the hypothesis of increased calories would equate to increase ageing.
There was a guy who was studying technical writing at my university. He uninstalled his anti-virus software because it was preventing him from installing some free software he wanted.
Not only that, but a waste of money. They sent me a booklet like that with a 5 dollar bill inside. I promptly pocketed the money and trashed the booklet. Take that, marketing execs.
They sent a friend of mine a booklet and asked him to fill it in. To me that's a waste of time and space.
If they asked me to track my surfing habits, I would explain that I spend all of my time on NY Times Culture, no time at all on pR0n sites nor slashdot.
I'm sure there's a misunderstanding. Basically Sparr0 isn't complaining about the music, he's complaining about the message you receive before recipient's phone is even ringing. During that delay Verizon send the message "please enjoy the music while your party is contacted."
The point of this article is that cell phone companies are intentionally making people wait to leave a message, which is an invisible cell phone only tax, or just a nuisance for the Vonage people.
Do you have a source for that? I tried looking up whether or not the caller gets charged for hearing the ringback tone but couldnt find anything agreeing with you.
It is if you're calling from a cell phone. You are using your minutes to literally hear them say "please enjoy the music while your party is contacted"
Will they have a genius bar? If my Aunt Click-on-everything has messed up her computer, can I simply point her to the Microsoft Store store and expect them to fix it for free? Apple has a tax or premium built into their products for their service.
Should people expect Microsoft to fix their OS after they've installed every spyware software known to man? I'm sure that some Karl Rove disciple is busy printing out fliers explaining the Microsoft Store fixes all computers for FREE. Now that would be an interesting real life denial of service attack.
And rather than release in them in a standards-based format, we instead have to to download and install proprietary software (Silverlight) that we may not want on our computers?
Silverlight (WMV) is in a standards based format, you can check it out in Mono. Flash too is proprietary software. If I were Adobe, I would make a 20 dollar version of Photoshop for Linux. Or even team up with Ubuntu to have Adobumtu, that has heavily discounted Adobe software.
I'm talking about the real world. And no, Microsoft, Google and Apple are not methods, and Agile and Scrum are not ideologies.
You got that backward. Agile and Scume ARE methods and people worship Microsoft, Google and Apple like people worship the Yankees, Red Sox or even Catholicism.

How about you give me a summary of what you are trying to say?
This paper (http://cogprints.org/678/0/ulcers_two.htm) explains exactly why it's difficult to follow the science and how there are frequently no clear cut answers. Also that it even with peer reviewed publications, the bacteria-ulcer hypothesis wasn't accepted for almost a decade.
FWIW most scientific papers are wrong: http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn7915--most-scientific-papers-are-probably-wrong.html
It is impossible to be a "scientific zealot" by definition. Science is a method, not an ideology.
I'm glad that you're talking about the perfect world and not the real world. Where there are no XP, Agile or scrum zealots, because these are methods. Nor are there Microsoft, Google or Apple Zealots.
You may be a linguist purist and not look at second definitions such as, a fanatical partisan.
Until there was peer-reviewed, material based on repeatable research available showing that this was the case, presumably.
Please read this fair summary of events and then reply back. http://cogprints.org/678/0/ulcers_two.htm Have you ever published a paper? Have you ever had to exclude a reviewer because they dislike your "science?" The difficulty with science is that things aren't black and white. Like religion, many dull and dimwitted individuals seize control.
Einstein did not believe in God. He used "God" to describe the nature of the universe, not a personal god.
Would you mind providing a citation for that?
I did a quick google for Einstein Freemason and it appears that he was. They do believe in God.
And how do you know that religious scientists are not impeded? If they aren't, they are extremely good at comparmentalizing {sic} their minds. Cognitive dissonance springs to mind.
Yet until we can do something better than a survey, we can squander time bloviating.
What is the value?
It's an opiate for the people, one of the few pain killers that worked in Marx's time. Sometimes you have to have faith, even if it's not supported by the current facts.

Email and IM now have a lovely child called Wave
You could do a civil lawsuit where the burden of proof is that it's more likely that they knew than they didn't.
As Mark Twain sagaciously penned, "Prosperity is the best protector of principle."
That's odd, the Slashdot crowd usually says the exact same thing about Ballmer.

They are going to cut 1/2 the greenhouse gases by getting more and more cars off the streets and into repair shops!
You think Slashdot is an invention of this world or heaven?
Hell no!!! er it's actually hell.

Frequently it's 5 crisp 1-dollar-bills.

the antitrust lawsuit by the DOJ is pure genius, since google has a 95% marketshare any anything!
If they used unfair tactics, then the DOJ should prosecute.

This would be a good thing because then the netbooks with Chrome OS or linux on them would be significantly cheaper.

I would have gone, with the iPhone 4, the kill switch is in you.

What do you mean by "real research"? Are you the ultimate judge of what "real research" constitutes?
Is it testable? Reproducible? Those would be my big two.
Because requiring Silverlight (and therefore Windows) severely dilutes the notion that Gate's action is altruistic. The content is only kinda free
Silverlight does not require Windows. It is available for Mac, also, where it runs flawlessly. Windows + Mac covers around 99% of personal computers.
But here at Slashdot, Windows + Mac only only 50% of users.

I would say that we have finite resources and that those resources can be better spent doing real research.
That said many of the minds pursuing these resources wouldn't help cure cancer, so no real loss.
