What you described is not what HFT actually does- they use series of trades to manipulate the price of a security before a 'slower' buyer can execute their trade. They are skimming off pennies....
A few points: The fiber lasers used in the demonstration can approach 80% efficiency. A more realistic 500KW would shoot just about anything down and would easily be powered by ship or grid.
But being exposed to this on a day to day basis isn't reality either. I would hate to live in a world where the frequency of gross things happening in the real world resemble rotten.com. Even if you work in a morgue or emergency room.
Really do we need to be this obsessed with our personal health? Most people out there understand the basic tenets of healthy living such as good food and moderation but choose to ignore them. What is the expected result of yet more indoctrination?
Not to mention that 'hella' would imply a lot of something when it really doesn't. How about going into the desert for a week with a 'hella' molecules of water? Not very impressive.
When I was a kid, sometimes I would go to my best friends house and sleep over a few days during summer break. After hanging out a couple of days we would be ready to kill each other!
Part of what makes hanging out with friends pleasurable is the time not spent talking with them. In this case 'catching up' actually means something.
The funny thing is if you have ever heard Lemmy's interviews he is not only down to earth but very lucid and together. I tend to think it is an image stunt that he puts on for entertainment value.
I can't believe that everyone seems to have forgotten to mention that the internet has made this type of tree killing obsolete. Many orders of magnitude more stuff available online, dealing with any subject imaginable. The only thing this won't help you with is toilet reading, unless you are hardcore enough to wifi from the bathroom.
You are looking at the wrong specs- if you have a solution that uses integrated graphics with shared memory there will be a significant increase in graphics performance going to DDR3. I use a 330 atom at home, and my only gripe with it is the graphics performance. It drops frames on video even though the cores are no where near 100%.

Look on page 9 where they discuss another paper.

Eggs in an egg carton was the mental image I had after reading the summary....
No collateral damage- bullets eventually fall to earth and this is a consideration when in port or in formation.

You never saw 'CHUD'?

Nothing new here- what use is there really for a number about 1/4 of a Googol?

Yeah, cause solar is so much cheaper than getting hooked to the grid
If you also add the opportunity cost of the 4 years of pay and experience which you missed out on the degree looks even less attractive....
How many children get maimed or killed on bicycles each year? Maybe we should take these away too- Think Of The Children!
Stainless cars are a stupid idea and the performance stunk.

If you want the most recent features of Acrobat, you must be a very rare and special person.
Sounds like they have matched Firefox functionality.

It will be a huge increase for a system that uses integrated graphics- which is the one weak point on my 330 system that I use at home.
