The same thing happens with conference calls. Adding video doesn't change the fact that you aren't in the same room as the other people. I don't see this working all that well until we get holodecks or something like that.
I find that when faced with something like this, people almost invariably see what they bring into it, as evidenced by some of the comments. If you expect evolution, you see evolution. If you expect a designer, you see a designer. These kind of things don't persuade me either way, but I do find it to be *really* cool regardless of how it came about.
I'm saddened to see how much animosity there seems to be between developers and sysadmins. I have always gotten along very well with my sysadmins over the years. Not sure what the difference is.
One thing that's probably very difficult to measure from satellite images is energy in a storm, which I would think would be an important part of measuring storminess. I'd think that knowing how far the impact extended through the earth would be very helpful in measuring energy.
Yes it is. And it makes life for the homeless even more difficult. One of the great services some nonprofits provide is mailing addresses for the homeless.
I've always thought an excellent common ground, regardless of opinion on AGW, is that the carbon based stuff in the ground is not inexhaustible. You can even disagree on how long it's going to last, but why not plan for the inevitable and really invest in alternatives? It addresses long term supply concerns, reduces pollution, and, if you're of a certain mindset, helps keep the planet from melting. Win, win, win.
Increase the resolution and apply to fairy cake and we're good to go!

Sorry for feeding the troll, but this is from late in Bradbury's life (age 90).
"I'm a Zen Buddhist if I would describe myself," he says. "I don't think about what I do. I do it. That's Buddhism. I jump off the cliff and build my wings on the way down."

Maybe they will next time.

Brutal. Funny, but brutal.

Why haven't they been doing this for a long time already?
Chaos: Making a New Science by James Gleick.
Non-maths guy, so his explanations and examples are approachable. Good jumping off point if it piques someone's interest.
I'll feed the troll.

These are speeding tickets, not light-running tickets.
the Silmarillion didn't come out until long after LOTR was out...
... and Tolkien was dead.
That's all I've got to say.
I'm thinking an expansion of the definition of GMO.
From the B&N statement linked above by eternaldoctorwho
The criminals planted bugs in the tampered PIN pad devices, allowing for the capture of credit card and PIN numbers.
I don't know what 'bug' means in this context, but maybe data wasn't cached, but captured in flight?

Bullets are easy to get and require no background check, etc. And even if it's not 'useful', it's a pretty fun project.
Glad to see you made good out of a really crappy experience. Cheers!

4. Profit?
Which, of course, is why they won't go after him. But I wonder if inaction in this case would work against them in future cases?
Two reasons it's not over: criminal vs. civil and appeals.
Sounds like they just picked the wrong law for the charges.
