  1. How much abuse was from other women? on A Woman on Twitter is Abused Every 30 Seconds (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 2

    How much abuse was from other women?

  2. Here in Australia, a number of well-meaning public projects have been derailed because they had loopholes that allowed gaming of the scheme by beneficiaries, or were gamed or abused by insiders. I hope Bezos includes a lot of checks and balances in this scheme.

  3. China doin what they do best.

  4. Re: It has been and always will be used by CRIMINA on Child Abuse Imagery Found Within Bitcoin's Blockchain (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    I know this is a bit tinfoil hat, buy is it possible this was a black flag operation by a group interested in bringing down Bitcoin?

  5. Didn't Crays use something like this where the memory was central to the operating structure of the computer? Can anyone enlighten me?

  6. Why not just use ferrous bullets and recycle on US Military Seeks Biodegradable Bullets That Sprout Plants (newatlas.com) · · Score: 1

    Couldn't you just recover and recycle ferrous bullets using magnets?

  7. Hope they're not successful on CO2 Researchers Are Now Hacking Photosynthesis (chicagotribune.com) · · Score: 1

    If it worked, maybe we end up with a high oxygen atmosphere that's hostile to food crops.

  8. Their dive into the old, sour affair on Sugar Industry Bought Off Scientists, Skewed Dietary Guidelines For Decades (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    I see what u did there.

  9. Apps on the SD card on Android M Arrives In Q3: Native Fingerprint Support, Android Pay, 'Doze' Mode · · Score: 2

    I'm also sure many Google apps could reside happily on the SD card instead of taking up space on the built-in memory.

  10. How about Undo? on Android M Arrives In Q3: Native Fingerprint Support, Android Pay, 'Doze' Mode · · Score: 1

    Are they finally going to implement a global "Undo" function?

  11. Re:Does the job still get done? on Economists Say Newest AI Technology Destroys More Jobs Than It Creates · · Score: 1

    Maybe the waiters only do 1 hr shifts, twice a week? So it's kinda like a hobby while they get to hang out with Janeway and co? - Or maybe it's x hrs of crap work per week if you want to in the crew at all (and at the bottom of the pecking order) ?

  12. Not really a new idea on Prototype Volvo Flywheel Tech Uses Car's Wasted Brake Energy · · Score: 1
  13. Re:Just in: Prisoner escapes from jail cell on Particle-Wave Duality Demonstrated With Largest Molecules Yet · · Score: 1

    Damn! Now we're going to see this in an episode!

  14. Re:Good luck getting the protestors to support tha on Some Critics Suggest Apple Boycott Over Chinese Working Conditions · · Score: 1

    Redistribution of wealth? In China? What are you? Some kind of *commie*? ;-)

  15. HDR/Framerates on Makers Keep Flogging 3D TV, Viewers Keep Shrugging · · Score: 1

    I'd rather see HDR and framerates of over 50 FPS. Personally, I think that would make for better viewing than 3d. d no special glasses required.

  16. Re:Principals didn't get it on Google Bid Pi Billion Dollars For Nortel Patents · · Score: 1

    I believe he was being ironic.

  17. Re:Bad News for USD on Local Currencies To Replace Dollar For 5 Countries' Dealings · · Score: 1

    See: http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article14996.html http://viewzone2.com/fakegoldx.html http://gold-quote.net/en/articles/fake-tungsten-gold-bars.php http://news.coinupdate.com/largest-private-refinery-discovers-gold-plated-tungsten-bar-0171/ http://www.gata.org/node/8390 Some people are suggesting that the businesses offering cash for gold jewellery are doing so because there is less likelihood that they will be deceived than they would be if buying bullion. Also, in related news: http://bbs.chinadaily.com.cn/viewthread.php?tid=658195 http://dailypaul.com/99841/where-is-our-gold-that-is-missing-from-fort-knox http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=45782 BTW, I couldn't find any of this referred to on any mainstream site, so I leave it to others to determine if this is rumour or not.

  18. Re:How about wearable displays? on Nanoresonators Create Ultra-High-Res Displays · · Score: 1

    Hmm, didn't I see that in Heavy Rain?

  19. Re:Naked Event Horizon on How To Destroy a Black Hole · · Score: 1

    Would "size" be a moot point, since in some theories, one of the space-like dimensions becomes time-like and time becomes space-like within the black hole?

  20. Pleasure and pain on Why Motivation Is Key For Artificial Intelligence · · Score: 1

    Emotion circuits aren't needed for motivation. It's pleasure and pain that drives all living things to behave as they do. That's why humans seek out each other, or why caterpillars eat leaves, or why birds build nests and why people do home renovation. -Beats me how you design a pleasure circuit though. Or a pain circuit for that matter.

  21. Re:Well I'm not going to buy it.. on Street Fighter HD Remix Launches With Fan-Made Soundtrack · · Score: 1

    I'll wait for the platinum label SFXmax limited special edition.

  22. General theory? on The Squid's Beak May Revolutionize Engineering · · Score: 1

    This would seem to have general application. Fillings break away from teeth, taking part of the tooth with them, due to the strong bond and lack of gradation in hardness between filling and tooth. Blue LEDs were burning out at the junction until material scientists could develop a gradation of doping, spreading the load of charge across the the junction. Perhaps we could make more durable things (even abstract things) through applying a theory of gradation. I'm not an engineer though, maybe this is already common knowledge. Or maybe it's a badly investigated set of assumptions.
