I would say that they have to be. He didn't take 7.5 packets from his 1/40th filtered data and multiply by 40 to get 300, did he?
If so, it's pretty stupid of him to not scale the numbers for presentation or at least mention that "Oh yeah, that 300 really means probably about 12,000..."
And not doing the geolocation on all of the data himself - WTF?
Yes, 370s had base 10 math opcodes for business-type apps, along with the normal binary add/sub/shift/etc. opcodes - just like x86 processors do. So what's your point?
"October was the hottest month on record in Darwin, Australia". Yeah, and it's been what, -40 to -50 in parts of western Canada - in early December? So what's his point?
This is so typical for Motorola - back in the day when we had to interface their r750+ handsets to Baker consoles, we soon discovered that the handsets would lock up if they were powered/running for 24.5 days straight, thus making them unsuitable as interface devices.
So we substituted i305 handsets - whose out of control audio AGC made them unsuitable as interface devices.
So we got to support the customer by showing up at 2am every two weeks to manually power cycle their sixteen r750+ handsets. Thanks for nothing Moto.
What about the "You can take any JPG picture and convert it to TIFF and voila! you have a digital negative of that JPG picture at the time you converted it" bit? You can't recover the original pixel data, so in no way is it a "digital negative"

Is the article writer suggesting there should be more admins than users?

Watches draw very little power, so yes you could.
Half a watt? Sure - with solar panels alone. But exactly watt would be the point?
OMG. How many watts will this supply? NONE.
That stupid gold headband produces less than 4 milliwats (0.004 watts).
A small solar cell by a window will blow it away. You will not be using it to power a computer - or even an MP3 player.

Hm. Convince me.
