  1. 2,600 people? on At Least 25 Million Americans Pirate Movies · · Score: 1

    Just wondering why they surveyed 2600 people and not 6900 people. =)

  2. HP 48GX on The Best Graphing Calculator on the Market? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I loved my hp 48gx... you could use it as a remote control or to chat via IR a long time ago before phone SMS existed. It also has a lot of advanced features, and games if you can get used to RPN. I'm sure HP has a nicer version these days.

  3. How much tuning can you do these days? on Does Mathematical Tuning Make Games Better? · · Score: 1

    These days with the hardware doing all of the calculations, how much tuning can you actually do?

  4. Re:With half a million readership on Political Bloggers May Be Forced to Register · · Score: 1

    We do need to register to post on slashdot.Right?

  5. SEPARATED BY 2? on Largest Twin Prime Yet Discovered · · Score: 1

    Please define what it means to be separated by 2. Does it mean that p1 - p2 = 2 ?

  6. Why man holes are round on Google's Answer to Filling Jobs Is an Algorithm · · Score: 2, Informative

    Man holes are round because if they were square, they'd fall in the hole, Mr Fuji, and I'd move the mountain with smoke and mirrors or perhaps optical rays into retnas.

  7. Re:anyone have an example? on Google's Answer to Filling Jobs Is an Algorithm · · Score: 1

    I felt that the most difficult question in their face to face interview was:

    Given a dictonary word look up function (done on a whiteboard with a marker), write an algorithm to list all of the word possiblities for a phone dial sequence (eg: 2 is a b c, 3 is d e f, etc).

  8. Anyone else lose all of their Hotmail on 2/4/04? on Lost Gmail Emails and the Future of Web Apps · · Score: 1

    This same exact thing happened to me with my hot mail account. All of my prior email and contacts were lost on 2/4/04.
    Did this happen to anyone else. Does Google or Microsoft even care? Does this mean that Hotmail and Gmail are unsuitable for business use and are unliable unless paid for their service?

  9. Re:Web 2.0 Url Please on Is 'Web 2.0' Another Bubble? · · Score: 1

    How about the title question response? Please give some Web 2.0 URLs besides slashdot (I challenge you to list 5).

  10. Re:Web 2.0 Url Please on Is 'Web 2.0' Another Bubble? · · Score: 1

    Well then, whats so new and cool about Web 2.0? I've been using slashdot way before they coined the phrase.

  11. Web 2.0 Url Please on Is 'Web 2.0' Another Bubble? · · Score: 1

    Can someone please give me a URL to a site that is "Web 2.0". I just can't see why Web 2.0 isn't just another marketing and pc-world reading wannabe word. I'm guessing it means a fully fledged AJAX web site without page transitions that looks like a desktop app with some huge flashing eat a joes sign banner ad.

  12. Nirvana on The Next Notebook Battery? Lithium Polymer · · Score: 1

    Reminds me of that old Nirvana song: "I'm not gonna crack"..Wonder if Sony is going to make laptop batteries with a Lithium Polymer.

  13. Data Mining on Stock-Picking Computers · · Score: 1

    I'd pitch a data mining bid based on business domain expert's experience as a system that will produce better results, and is agile and tunable by the business itself, as neural networks are detached from the "real world".

  14. Hacking Solitaire on Wired Reports On Korea's First Hacker Con · · Score: 1

    I found a bug in solitaire for windows 98 and earlier. When you flip the deck and undo 3 successive times it ends the game.

  15. Big Cheif on An Indian On the Moon By 2020 · · Score: 1

    In other news, big chief asks: "HOW?"

  16. The Bool Sheet on Google Code Search Reveals Dark Corners · · Score: 1

    I recall a professor in college saying "George Bool put all of his theory on one page and they used to call it the bool sheet".

  17. Do no evil. on Google Code Search Reveals Dark Corners · · Score: 1

    Its my assesment that shining light on dark corners fits into the category of their "do no evil" motto.

  18. Super Miniature Particles on Survey of Super Massive Black Holes Completed · · Score: 1

    Now if they will announce a completion of a survey of super Miniature fundamental particles...

  19. In Soviet Russa on U.S. Commerce Department Hacked Again · · Score: 1

    Soviet Russia Joke someone please.

  20. Re:What to do? on Firsthand Account of the Christie's Star Trek Auction · · Score: 1

    Try the peace corps.

  21. Warp Speed IP on Firsthand Account of the Christie's Star Trek Auction · · Score: 1

    How much for the attorney fees for the patent to Warp Speed engines that have been made public domain from the outset? What about for the IP to improbability engines?

  22. I don't believe this because.. on U.S. Commerce Department Hacked Again · · Score: 1

    There is no reason for these databases to be physically connected to the outside world, or even allow physical installation of untrusted software or hardware. Its probably just a sand box instance that they allowed them to pierce for intelligence reasons, with a nice feed of propaganda. If it is accessable in this manner, they deserve the intrusion.

  23. Code Alreeady Implemented on Ask an Open Source Venture Capitalist · · Score: 1

    I have code already implemented and complete video presentations and documents on my home page at http://www.wanfear.com/~mbrito Be sure to check the video demo of VXD. No gimmicks, just implementations. Feedback appreciated.

  24. 1.21 GigaWatts on GeV Acceleration In 3 Centimeters · · Score: 1, Offtopic
