In addition to the good points made in other replies, don't forget that many of the hackers are working from outside the U.S. and countries with whom we have extradition agreements. Labelling them a criminal is fine and good, but it may be next to impossible to serve justice without military action.
This might push back the goalposts for the AI researchers. If neurons communicate over some distance, as well as directly with synapses, that would be several orders of magnitude more connections than we had thought.
One of the popular Dremel attachments is a thin abrasive disc that can be used to put a new slot in a screw head that has become rusted, stripped, or otherwise impossible to remove.

Weird. Ever since I learned about confirmation bias, I've been seeing it everywhere.
Can I get a vote in for "Cromulently Parallel?"
Maybe it stands for Dash Slot?

I'm sure you're right. But I think in that particular instance it would come by way of a "US ALCOHOL == PISS" post.
Since they're calculating in binary, your taking ten attempts to guess isn't really something to brag about. ;-)
What about Bob?
It's not like the AC and I were sitting at a table with a collection of cubes in our hands.
Or, to be more abstract, a collection of rectangular prisms. ;-)
Halfway through packing for a move, I really wish more boxen were uniform cubes.
I find your ideas intriguing and wish to subscribe to your banana-powered, zebra byte newsletter.
I can think of at least one thing. ;-) The fact that there are still little aborigines running around suggests they may have thought of that, too.

I will restrain myself and not state the obvious joke.
Come on, man! Why would jew leave us hanging like that?!
Was it this one? (Note: /.'s new and improvised comment system doesn't seem to go directly to the comment anymore. You might have to navigate for it.)
Shouldn't it be a Police Call Box?
Righteous! Say "Hi" to So-crates for me, dude.
...called it a thypoon.
But, there ith no thypoon!
But would you give up your kingdom for it?
...was not the laser considered a usless exercise in physics once? The net of today would be very different without it...

In this case, wouldn't it be striking "Eul?"

What's more, they'll have an iGenius® do it!
Yeah, I know. Granted I was only 10 years old in 1993, but I still knew AOL was trouble. (FWIW, I didn't personally get online for another few years.)

The "What?" buried at the bottom of my post was an (unsuccessful) attempt to stave off the whoosh. I suppose I should use the "~" more often
The calendar on my wall, and the timestamp on your post both say it's January.
What?
Better yet, the iPad is heavy enough that your forearms won't get lopsided!
Crap.
Anybody have any spare drawers? Size *mumble mumble*?
