I wonder if any of these types of translation or recognition engines use Lojban as an intermediary. The unambiguous yet rich grammar of Lojban is ideal for representing different languages. Eventually, it will be used directly.
Where I work, I'm trying to push IPv6. Some are reluctant--only considering in face of federal policy. We're not really too far into networking, but there's room in both product and IT for it. You have to beat down the thick molasses when upgrading.
Even before the whole Kane & Lynch thing with Jeff, they managed to annoy the paying subscribers with an ad for the game to "make your own INSANE trailer". I suppose some adblock would get it, but it's in a place where some interesting stuff can be (like tournaments). When I pay, I want all the ads gone! Kuro5hin had the same problem.
We should look at it for what it is. For one thing, this won't do anything for bullets (or swords). Another defensive tool, which is a great thing. Offense has been winning out way too much in the race.
When I looked, a good amount of people will lower rates for an open source contract (actually put it in the contract). You can get someone local, and eventually give it to everyone.
I'm going to wait for the full genome scan. Early adopters here will be getting much less than the real thing. With X-prize still contests around for genome scanning, it should not be too long. I want every C, T, G, and A.
After that, I'm all for it. Not even a needle prick is needed.
You: You have no idea if 'the threads of self' are separate or not. You assume they are because you appear to have privileged access to the contents of your own head, and no access to the contents of others' heads. This is appearance, not necessarily fact. We could be living in a simulation where the sentients in the outside context have complete information on our thoughts, as one example.
Me: We could certainly be living in such a simulation. In that case, I can say that the sentients are not all-powerful. That would require only two or one people to be in existance. This is testable. If I ever fall out of the simulation, I will ask those present if they have any limits.
You: Time was created in the big bang, so it useless to speak about what happened before. There was no before.
Me: Consider a multidimensional array. The least significant part wonders what happened before 0. Well, I say that it is something like [infinite][finite] integer. What happened before zero? The previous reality. Again, this is testable and meaningful. If scientists find that the big bang really does represent a singularity, with a doubtful chance of being just a cycle in bang-crunch-bang, then what I think is strengthened.
Comments: There is no reason to cast off all pocket philosophies. I don't think the one you gave deserves to be thrown in the garbage. To me, it raises interesting questions of determinism.
I don't fear zero. I am fascinated by it, like I am about all of mathematics. If you want, I can add something to the start:
0. In the beginning was zero. All possibilities existed, but there were zero of each of them.
Something like that. What are your other "pocket philosophies"? Can you connect them? As long as they are consistent, then you have a good chance of believing it.
At least I can claim something. The sense of self is nothing other than a memory going back in time to infinity. The threads of self are separate--this is consistent with reality. We don't have any sort of telepathy to others.
What can you claim when you lay awake at night? What can you claim when you know death is near? Your statements are just like zero--fascinating, but empty.
I don't think so. Zero is just a number. One can represent something meaningful. You might as well posit starting with negative one sentients. They are called whole numbers for a reason.
The court and the WH are different entities. Two. I will write about "two".
1. The self was the beginning. All things happen here, as long as they only involve one sentient. 2. The self became two, and there was love. All things happen here, as long as they only involve two sentients. 3. Time begins, a universe starts. 4. An infinite amount of sentients go along their threads. a. They enter a universe. b. They go back to the time of the self. Time is not unlimited, though. c. They go back to the time of the two. Time is not unlimited, though. e. Back to a universe.
Comments? Questions? Note the supreme importance of one and two. Are there any interactions between three or more that are interesting? In Quake, there's a lot of kill stealing.
Do you feel the way about women who say they had a baby because they don't believe in abortions? Are they "better than you because they don't have abortions"?
So, really, why does nobody mention morality here? Somehow, anything involving stem cells (or even something like the cervical cancer vaccine), immediately has to be about morality. I'm actually not even a vegetarian. I'm just curious.
The Sony reader had a long latency to flip a page, as well as some stuff going on with the ink rearranging itself. If one could just flip fast without any image artifacts, it would be great. Most people will want color, but I think this is more important.
Do we preface every cookbook with a discussion about suffering? Somehow, everything about stem cells has to be about ethics. Is there any way to get straight science on the subject?
What can it do? How is it done? Cool or not?

Apples and oranges. Music is artificially scarce. Wii is not.

Business in general tend to be rational. If the profit is not there, the product will not be used.

Um, where are they? And what planet do you live on?
Likelihood of survival, given only one choice? Gun versus vest. One guy with a bat--probably the gun. Lots of guys with guns--the vest.

I want my dang PCM files straight. Hold the ice.

All I'm asking is that an anchor display the href to the user without having to type it in.
Oh, I mean automatically show the actually link in an anchor. So would show up as:
http://bit.com/
That is all.
Allow a way automatically print out the href as the link text.
There are not an infinite number of catchy little lists. Given the reasonable requirements of English and size of list, there are a finite number.
I'm looking for real philosophical discussion, not wordplay. Reply to the original post if you have something meaningful to say.

For example, the Wii shortage is very real. Outside of software, handling inventory can be very tricky.
