Sea temperature can be measures by satellite and, unless you're expecting "The day after tomorrow", thermohaline circulation is quite constant. (And if it changes, it's a bit late to do anything about it).
So, are they getting from the buoys something more than a known temperature and a constant value?
It seems similar to putting ground vibration sensors to know if a meteorite hit us.
It may seem stupid or risky but if you're going to keep a bribe net and ignore the one assigned to check it, you're bound to fail.
I think the whole problem started with the $5,445 mistake. Everyone has a price, if you can't or simply don't want to afford it, don't try with a smaller amount.
Yeah, because the best way to to deal with a small problem is to put it off until it becomes a really big problem. When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: [...]Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels...And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
So, basically, you just committed heresy. Happy now?
We can ignore the problem then too. Eventually, morning and evening will be on different days. We might just gain or lose a whole day. Heck, we can ignore the problem forever. We'll be off by a year, then a decade...
Ok guys. We're in California, it's midday 26th June while I have snow falling on my face and I can't see shit because it's new moon.
So if I get this straight, in Germany if Company A offers me $X dollars for my product, and Company B offers me $X+5, and I decide to do business only with Company B because I don't like Company A's deal, Company A can then sue me for anti-competitive practices? Sounds like I don't want to do business there... Actually it's more like if Company A offers $X for your product and Company B offers $X-5 but tell you they'll do everything in their hands to destroy your business if you ever make a deal with Company A.
Then, Company A sues Company B for anticompetitive practices.
dogs hearing ultrasound, snakes seeing in infrared, or blind bats able to catch insects in flight? Yes, I'm quite sure future discoveries will finally explain how the the souls of the dead transported a man to the otherworld so he could see that his late wife was well and then brought him back. Then, the man committed suicide because, having seen his late wife, he couldn't keep living without her. However, as he had committed suicide, he went to hell and never saw her. So now, his wife's angry spirit inhabits the man's apartment, and that's why they found some black spots with suspicious shapes in the kitchen's ceiling.
The number of comments supporting dowsing rods based on anecdotal evidence on the article page makes me realize that we have a lot of work to do before anything like an educated majority will happen. Me, it makes just sad. I have this at work at least once a week during breakfast:
- Someone make an outrageous claim that implies spirits, magic or whatever idiocy du jour. - At least two people say something about that being a known fact and add their own story that "proves" it's all real. - They end with sentences like "Not being able to see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist", "There are more things in this world than what we know", etc.
And those are computer scientists. I can't even imagine the kind of imaginary world people with no scientific/technical formation live in.

YouTube finally implemented the mind reading related video selection. What banner add did you first think about when you read the news?
So you've clustered a number of unintelligent human brains to build something that exhibits a higher degree of intelligence? I thought he was talking about Wikipedia. No, that would be using a number of human brains that exhibit a higher degree of intelligence to build something that exhibits.

Well, unless your pension is very, very close...

This is computer science.
We use 1 and 0 as the smaller element to store all information.
We use 1 and 0 as true and false.
There isn't such thing as a small change.
Indeed, pickles was a perfectly good password until you all started talking about it.
Whoever uses 15 instead of 25 in the reply will get an instant karma loss.
Insidious AND subtle.
Great, now I have to buy 23 games. And I still haven't played episode 2 because tf2 is too good.
No, wait. 22.
ummmm 19. Should have read the list first.
Playing a game before making laws about how to rate them is about as useful as taking crack before making it illegal.
I hope they get the information required to take their decisions from experts in whatever science studies the matter at stake.
Thank you.
Can you even start to imagine what would happen if there was any of this in western countries?

Will FFIII have a IE plug-in to open badly built asp.net pages?

A leap-day every 640 years ought to be enough for anybody.

That's a wonderful system!
For example, if you wrongly argued for an eye gougement, you lose your own eye instead!
I wonder how nobody thought of that before.
True story.
- Someone make an outrageous claim that implies spirits, magic or whatever idiocy du jour.
- At least two people say something about that being a known fact and add their own story that "proves" it's all real.
- They end with sentences like "Not being able to see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist", "There are more things in this world than what we know", etc.
And those are computer scientists. I can't even imagine the kind of imaginary world people with no scientific/technical formation live in.
