  2. This is fantastic on Online Courses and the $100 Graduate Degree · · Score: 1

    This is fantastic I participated in the AI Class and I learnt so much. The class was so engaging, and it had me finely combing the textbook. I still remember the topics we went over, up until the point where I realised my math skills were insufficient and I would have to study 8-10 hour days to complete the rest of the course. But the experience was great! Now I know what actuators mean, the travelling salesman problem is and so on. Thrun, this work could really change the world, what a good set of news to wake up to.

  4. Oh by the way! on Linux Mint 13 (Maya) Has Arrived · · Score: 3, Informative

    Release notes: Boot hangs on systems with b43 wireless cards WHAT??? This is a very common set of cheap broadcom wireless chips used in tens-if-not-hundreds of 2-5 year laptop models. What a particularly strange thing NOT to fix before you ship a release to the public. Of every laptop I "refurbish" and install Linux Mint on, 1 out of 3 has the B43 chipset. I can't believe it. I have to see this with my own eyes. ... Ship a release that doesn't support the ess1869 of wireless chipsets

  7. Logitech delivers a surprisingly good turnkey solu on Ask Slashdot: A Cheap, DIY Home Security and Surveillance System? · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Logitech delivevers a surprisingly good turnkey solution! I use it in my company, we have 20 stores and lately there has been a surge in robberies of our stores. After we got these cameras set up, with no extra hacking, it delivers perfect video with sound and can of course be motion activated. We have sendt the video captures to the national TV station (Norwegian TV2) and it got aired nationwide. The quality was that good that they chose to use our videos. I would not bother create a hacked-together just because these things Just Work. Normally I wouldn't trust a Logitech product to do something this important, but they are very good and reliable. No problems, we've use them daily at 20 locations with no problems and no hazzles. I am not affiliated with Logitech, I just really like a solution that works perfectly and want to share it with others.
