Indiana seems to have remarkably high penetration of DSL compared to its neighbors. Three of its borders are clearly demarcated. Is there any explanation for this?
My impression is that the wagering isn't influenced by the category but only its standing against the other players, at least for Final Jeopardy where it didn't have the benefit of seeing previous responses in the category. I thought it funny that they decided not to round the wagers to more typically human choices. That was certainly deliberate on the developers' part.
I also thought it was interesting that the only category the humans swept was the one asking for the directors of movies. These were simple factoids and it had all the right answers, but the short questions from Trebek exposed that there was too much processing overhead to buzz in first on them.
This reminds me of a funny entry in the Urban Dictionary on Christianity:
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree.
The weirder bit is that some of that Mormon backstory was woven into the plot arc of the original Battlestar Galactica.
That being said I don't have any problems with the tenets of Mormonism. "Mainline" Christianity is just as goofy and it's telling how quick many of them are to attack a group that is embattled in an analogous way to the early Christians.
Although their technique seems to be innovative, simultaneous transmission on the same frequency isn't. GPS and CDMA employ single frequency transmitters. They depend on the properties of pseudo-random sequences to get around interference issues whereas this seems to involve some sort of controlled interference.
David Segal is quite the inane journalist. He equates SEO hucksters with "black-hats". True black-hats are too busy commiting crimes to waste their time on such mundanity.
I fail to see why the fact that NTFS is still around essentially unchanged is a problem. It serves its purpose well. While MS's internal factionalism has hurt their position in the massive storage arena, the continued stamina of NTFS is a good thing.
The front matter of an old Sears Roebuck catalog clearly states their business model and how they are able to deliver products throughout the country for competitive prices. It is exactly the same as for online retailers today. Nowhere in the catalog is taxation mentioned. The states new enough not to try to violate the constitution with illegal taxation 100+ years ago. They need to be reminded of the same today.
It's all a ploy by the superhumans to undermine the US economy. The *AAs are our only remaining hope. Let's hope Congress will do the right thing and empower them to put an end to the BT villainy that has persisted for too long.
They're going to bring the bill back for a vote that only requires a simple majority. It will pass then. This is more of a way for them to sort out the renegades to determine where party dollars go for reelection campaigns.
The Ariane 5 is already man rated as it was designed to be the booster for Hermes. You could easily slap an Orion on top and call it a day without having this international make-work project.
Indeed. At this point the domain squatting industry is too big to fail. We need big government to step in and make sure they continue to profit so the proles can get their trickle down excrement. Someone should really think of the children too.
As usual this can be easily defeated by re-sampling or noise filtering. If you're targeting web media and have a high enough resolution source image then you have plenty of redundant pixels to play with to wipe out the watermark.
A better solution for authenticity verification would be digitally signed checksums.
Our algorithm works by adding a high-frequency pattern to the image with an amplitude carefully selected to cause maximum quantization error on recompression at a chosen target JPEG quality factor. The amplitude is modulated with a covert warning message, so that foreground message blocks experience maximum quantization error in the opposite direction to background message blocks. While the message is invisible in the marked original image, it becomes visible due to clipping in a recompressed copy,
Flu shots are over administered due to media scare tactics. The worst is the way Tamiflu is promoted as if it were a vaccine also capable of protecting against infection when all it will do is reduce the duration of illness by a single day.
Let me know when honeycomb is out. Since these devices are all going to be treated as abandonware there's no point in buying into a dead end that will be obsolete in months.
This is a dramatic change from the state of affairs ten years ago when the idea of running Linux and using open source in a secure environment would get you laughed out of the room. MITRE produced a white paper back then that has slowly helped to put the gears of change in motion.
You do realize that a significant portion of 20-24 year olds are unemployed because they go to school, right? Yours isn't exactly an apples to apples comparison.
He should contact a state legislator to assist him in launching an investigation into the NC DOT, bring this issue to the awareness of the Governor's staff, and submit a shitload of FOIA requests for the relevant departmental expense accounts of all the assholes involved in this stupidity.

Pshaw. Hand in your DECterm. Anything less than telnetting into port 80 is for amateurs.
Religions are cults practiced by a majority. Cults are religions practiced by a minority.
Fortunately NoScript protects me from those scumbags at eff.org.

It would be news if a Saudi geologist would officially state this.
It may be a bit too presumptuous of me but I expect most Saudi geologists like having their heads attached to their necks.
XP also has Autoplay which can also be coerced into doing nefarious things. Is that taken care of as well?

I hate people who make sweeping generalizations - they're all jackasses.
Most likely Belgian too.
