Maybe they are, but this looks to be a very good investment on their part. If Tesla becomes another big car company, it will quickly pay for itself in new tax revenue for the state. Not to mention the benefits of less emissions for the state in terms of reduced healthcare costs.
Firefox broke all the useful URL bar shortcuts and replaced them with text replacers.
For example: control-enter used to open the URL in a new tab, with control-shift-enter opening it in a new tab in the background, now it adds www. and.com to whatever is in the location bar. If someone wanted those they would type it, or the built in system would add those if what they typed was not a proper domain. shift-enter used to automatically download an URL, whatever it was, a file, a webpage, whatever. now it adds www and.net. alt enter used to do something useful too I just don't remember, now it opens a webpage in a new tab, albeit without being able to use the shift modifier to not automatically switch to the tab.
Worse, you used to be able to use these modifiers with bookmarks or on any link you clicked. Now you can't even middle click a bookmark and have it open in the background even while middle clicking links does. A lot of functionality that used to exist doesn't, and when it is there, It's totally inconsistent.
And if you go and report these issues it won't even let you do that. http://i.imgur.com/S8D8t.png
Cookie management is a pain too, in seamonkey, if you want to change a sites cookie permissions, you go to a menu->sub menu->allow/deny cookies. In firefox you have to right click, open page info, select the privacy tab, click allow/deny cookies, then close the window, which is 3x as long, for a browser that's supposed to care about your privacy.
Almost all processors today barely saturate ddr3-1600, and gain very little from ddr3-1866. (Source: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ivy-bridge-benchmark-core-i7-3770k,3181-10.html)
Secondly there are no ddr4 devices now, because as the article summary said, ddr4 won't be out till next year. It will be pin incompatible with ddr3 (to protect it from wrong voltages and different signal methods). Also, ddr3-1866 and higher ram is available (I just bought some), they come with air cooled heatsinks, just take a look at any decent computer store.
Finally a general point, ram already uses very little power compared to other system components. Each stick of ram uses about 1 watt, when compared to the processor which uses like 35 watts in a low end system, to 77 in a high end system (or 130 watts in a previous gen high end system), it's not a critical factor in power savings.
The Moore Method is an effective way to make students think. The class meets regularly, the students each must have some proofs they've done at home which they must present to the class instead of the professor lecturing, they instead, along with other students critique the presenter on their proofs, pointing out flaws and holes. Further students must compete with each other to present enough proofs to pass the class, and each proof can only be done once.
Outside reading is discouraged, and the class is selected based on having the right experience in the subject (not too much, and not too little) to ensure fairness.
The result is a grueling, yet often very interesting class, as every problem that a student presents, you've probably already worked on and as such have intimate knowledge of the problem which leads to further understanding and new insights.
There's dozens of ways to solve the problem (47*75)/25. Breaking it up as a parent poster said 47*3 = (50-3)*3 = 150 - 9 is perfectly acceptable, just remember why it works. Personally I solved it as (40+7)*3 = 120 + 21, but you can break it up however you want.

Urban Terror is a great game, what makes it unique is, as parent suggested, the movement mechanics of the game. Once you learn how to jump and move, it feels natural, to jump off walls, to gain speed while jumping, it just works beautifully.
The weapons are well balanced, and fun. It has a very large and active community, and many sub communities, from jumpers to active Leagues in North America, Europe and South America. You can always find good servers to play on.
Plus the game is in development for a new version, so don't let the old looking graphics scare you away. It also runs on mac, linux and windows.
I originally found Urban Terror due to some post on/. a while back as well.
They were supposedly releasing the i7-3820 at $294, with "limited unlock" whatever that means. I was wanting to get the newer socket 2011 motherboard to future proof as much as possible.
It takes about a month to cross the galaxy in an imperial star destroyer. There are 10,000+ imperial star destroyers. 3 can turn a standard earth sized planet into nothing but molten mayhem in about 12 hours. Conclusion, any of the normal Star Trek races loses any war very quickly.
Just realize the interest rate they're giving on Savings accounts is.01% not 1% or a 10th of a percent, but a hundredth of a percent, practically zero. There is no incentive to save your money with chase.
This sounds very similar to a recent episode of numb3rs (not the greatest show in the world, but better than average). Charlie's colleague was arrested for working on genetically modified foods and sending the results to Pakistan where it could save people from famine. The government considered it bio-terrorism research material.
I have little doubt that this episode was inspired by the whole national security climate which silences research all the time.
Attacking eBay won't do any good, and it's just plain stupid. Everyone who cares enough to see this through wants it done peacefully and legally. Honestly, suggesting that people attack EBay with DOS attacks suggests you are simply a CoS plant intended to give Anonymous a bad name.
The ends do not justify the means, for the means determine the end.
I do think there were close to 10,000 people in attendance total. The numbers recorded were peak numbers, but a lot of people came late, or had to leave early.

No it switches to the new tab automatically despite having the setting new tabs load in the background.
Firefox broke all the useful URL bar shortcuts and replaced them with text replacers.
.com to whatever is in the location bar. If someone wanted those they would type it, or the built in system would add those if what they typed was not a proper domain. .net.
For example:
control-enter used to open the URL in a new tab, with control-shift-enter opening it in a new tab in the background, now it adds www. and
shift-enter used to automatically download an URL, whatever it was, a file, a webpage, whatever. now it adds www and

It comes across as Shatner trolling the audience, which for those who recognize it for that, is hilarious.
Except on broken web pages that intercept keyboard commands, such as slashdot.
Shut down the internet. Because shutting down the internet worked so well in Egypt...
It's not THE key, it's a key. Assuming this pans out that is, but there are always different paths towards faster computing.

It's about the courts re clarified this for software. When you buy a physical product, you should have the right to sell it.
What happens now with all the authentication and tying copies of software to the hardware it's first installed on such as Windows XP/Vista?
You have a right to sell your copy, but effectively you can't because it's been tied to your hardware.

I think you're way underestimating the numbers too:
This guy estimates over 150 people: http://youtube.com/watch?v=BbYTxS8tuxo
And he has video evidence to back it up.
I do think there were close to 10,000 people in attendance total. The numbers recorded were peak numbers, but a lot of people came late, or had to leave early.
