That's the plan. If he doesn't, we'll use the LHC to travel back in time and not give him the Nobel peace prize. And since that hasn't happen, he'll succeed. Logical?
I believe that the issue should not be played down, and the aspect of being able to determine ones sexual life -- and the inability to do so up to a certain age -- is key.
NB: The message above might reflect my opinion right now, but not necessarily tomorrow or next year.
But how many news agencies give people the chance to investigate for months these days? For example, I enjoyed the reportage on "Why is Africa still poor" on BBC world. But yes, adding more information doesn't usually worsen the picture.
Unlike every sane part of the Nobel foundation, the "Peace Prize" committee is made up of 5 guys appointed by the Norwegian parliament, which is about as left-wing as they come and tilts the committee the same way.
Really? Five marks on a left-right scale explain the whole world?
Many countries have weird laws, that doesn't mean they are still executed. We call it 'dead law'. Of course the US doesn't have that, they have to still fear laws from the 19th century and do commit 3 felonies every day;-)
I think that wouldn't be such a good idea to see the peace prize just as a "lifetime achievement" thing, after you've done everything. When reflecting on history, you may easily see what has been going on, and what the big players were. I think what the jury is trying to do is tell others that there is a change going on around Mr. Nobel-Prize, and people should listen a little because they think it is gonna be big and influential for our time. In 50-100 years we will know if it started a new peaceful era of mankind or if it was just another US government. But then we can't influence anymore how big a 'revolution' of some sort, if it was happening, will get, i.e. how many people it will affect. I think the idea is to draw more peoples attention to it and to think and reflect upon whether this is a change on the global scale of some sort, and to hop onto that train.
And perhaps to think about what your countries path will be for the next 50-100 years. Governments don't do that.
Wow. reading all of your comments it seems that it is hard to see from a US-citizen standpoint what President Obama brought in a global context. I assume that is because he is both 'boss' in internal and foreign countries matters, and US-citizens seem to focus on what is hot in their country right now (read: health care). Obama brought a climate change in a global context. He introduced a different way of talking to each other on a global scale. Before it was always US the supernation can do anything. Now we are seeing each other as partners. (I didn't say he invented that rhetoric.) Russia is/was still seen as some kind of ambivalent enemy. Recently the US has started more of a partner-relationship with Russia, and it lead from a horse-trading tactic to a discussion of understanding each others worries.
The pie is not limited. That is one result of the Harvard Negotiation project btw. Read up about it.
Maybe the US is not ready for a health program yet, maybe it is. Within the US, maybe Obama changed the way of forming a public opinion a little bit from debates to discussions?
Either way, in a global context, the few months have made a huge difference in the global climate, reduced fear, and drew a brighter future. Obama was not the only one participating, but he was/is a major player (a catalyst if you will).
Some facts
- No wars were started by the US
- the Taliban said they just wanna be left alone and not want to attack anymore
- Russia retracted the rocket defense system, general disarming got one step closer
The world and the relationships between states are getting more complicated these days. It used to be "the Russians do this", it is getting more like "The kurds, which make up x% of the population in z, have the problem of y." I got off-topic. Sorry. NB: The message above might reflect my opinion right now, but not necessarily tomorrow or next year.
As far as I have seen, psychology students get a way better statistics education than any other field (e.g. CS, Astronomy, Physics, Medicine). Generally, if you're a scientist, your knowledge of statistics should be good (confidence intervals and hypothesis testing come to mind).
And with 'search' going to be directly embedded into the applications, the 'choice' of browser is going to become moot.
Not necessarily, if you can replace the IE Active-X components that Windows apps use by another dll -- e.g. http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/mozilla.htm. I doubt though that Mozilla will pull themselves together to release such a DLL, Google/Opera seem more likely (to me).
Either way, I read the 'Register'-quote from the summary as exactly that: Search has to be replaceable with other browsers. Another way is to always call the browser, and not use in-application results.
It is astonishing how little we know about the non-radiating matter in our own solar system. For example, the size of the Oort cloud is not really known. We can see active galactic nuclei up to z=6.4 or 5.4 Gpc, but don't know the objects within 0.04 parsecs of earth yet. The sphere is a beast.
Slashdot Mirror
I think you have to read on slashdot for some days in a row to get mod points ... someone less lazy than I could dig it up from the help pages.
caching.
There are 23 official languages in the EU. And many more in Europe. They'll be offended if you exclude them ;-)
There are C->Java converters.
But if you need interoperability and work on multiple platforms, there is nothing like Java.
You can use JNI if you have to rely on C code, but virtually every library you could need has been programmed in Java.
And although it is called "education", he is basically programming his kids

I thought that this was covered in the press last week, so why is it in /. now??
Because that's how long it takes for people to reflect on the issues, think about it, come up a decent opinion and then write 'frist post'.

Have ZFS/btrfs developed tools to undelete or rescue files? It is pretty hopeless for ext[234] in my experience.
RS, mediafire, and others will take down stuff when someone complains.
Maybe, but it is still a "Bat a rat" game with an apathic player. You will never get all copies across multiple hosters.
The topic so so complicated that it fills lengthy wikipages.

No, Canadians
What is there to win in a war? In wars, both sides lose. Or as Monty Python would put it: "What a stupid concept!"

yeah, LCROSS just hit a dry-hole it seems ... real data in a few days

Anyone know how many years the patents hold? TFA doesn't say.
Also, what are you prohibited to do in research? Is it a big problem? Why not move to Europe for researching?
... cover not only the process for determining the structure of the molecules, but also the computation used to design new antibiotics.
You can not patent ideas or discoveries. But you can patent applications/machines. And if you live in a weird country, algorithms.

In whatever way you present it, natures elements are messed up ;-)
This link lists pretty much all the tables:

Just wow. I didn't see yet how they account for the overlap between d/p/s/f.
