Universe existed "forever" - a solution to a set of equation systems conclude...
Yeah okay. Why should I be impressed? Just because something that uses this universes' conception of "time" (controversially I would think) in the results to conclude "forever"?
Well good luck with this "forever". I can almost hear other "forevers" laughing.
Such articles just make me sulk.
fresh and chopped up, with some olive oil, chili flakes, salt, charred over wood fire (quickly and lightly) with the marinade dabbed gently with decent (even semi decent or lots of rough) wine, is worth an afternoon well spent.... don't anyone dare tell me otherwise
This is true, first missions used caveman technology compared to what is available now. 20+ years later is a completely different matter, right? That would be the 90s. Great, succesful missions like Mars Observer, Mars Polar Lander or Mars Climate Orbiter? Oh, wait...
Over 20 years of technology moving forward did not make it easy for NASA to reach Mars. 20 more would not make it that much easier for the first-timer - a bit cheaper, perhaps. This is really an impressive accomplishment.
Sure would have been a valid obs by the poster except that US etc have cock-blocked India on space tech for so long that India has mostly done this on its own (of course everyone has access to international research work/journals at a low cost/access).
The fact that this was done despite cock-blocking at colossal levels makes it so much sweeter.
... that there is even a debate. Surely all of us sending transmits are not doing so in vain, especially when Saro has responded... twice!
We will deliver the baby.
In India, software code is copyrighted as "art work". Indeed it is.
Quoting someone familiar to us all - "In the work of art the truth of an entity has set itself to work."
So long as India's got smarts to reverse engineer the drug and distribute cheaply, good for em. People saved from dying is better than Bayer or xDrug company making profits.
A thought experiment would be to think if India or other countries whose folks can not afford expensive life saving drugs, didn't exist... think of this as notional profits that didn't get realized coz they dont exist.
It's a marketing and financial projection problem, not a real on-the-ground-savin-lives problem.
If Bayer don't agree, screw you - you will get pwned by smart folks. It just takes a small consignment to reverse engineer and political will to save lives.... can't stop the consignment reaching savin hands, the supply chain is is porous, my man
The only larger network than those two is interestingly Chinese QQ, which has 636 million users.
So I find this hard to believe since according to the latest CNNIC numbers for January 2011, China’s total Internet users has reached 457 million http://bit.ly/icm9wY

Other than the nitpicking in ensued replies I think the coward has a point about time not being linear and being much more complex...

Nitpicking is fun, so I'll have a go.

It cost less than 12 cents per km... taxis in Mumbai and Delhi cost 24 cents+.. per km

I really hate this font and format. May I please have the old slashdot back?

I dunno, but I'm guessing none of these politicians have ever heard of the Streisand Effect.
Maybe they have...
If a tree falls in the forest and no one observes it, how long did it take to fall?
It took as long as it took for the tree to fall
(so what it's obvious)
Steve ... never did much with balls in any case. underwhelmed
