That's why I get MP3s from gomusicnow.com. The big labels have very little influence over what I listen too. Most of my current favorite artists I probably never would have even heard of if I stuck to radio or even streaming, like Emilie Autumn, Collide, The Birthday Massacre, Helalyn Flowers, Crisk, and Billy Talent. It's possible some of them got some radio air time, but I've never heard it. I started by getting the MP3s I knew I wanted. Then I got mix albums with the artists I liked. I found I liked some of the other artists on the mixes, so got more of them, and so on. At nine cents a song I can afford to impulse buy like that, and get to a lot of artists I like that I wouldn't have been exposed to otherwise. At a dollar a song I'd never do something like that and overall would not only have a lot less music, not have music I enjoy as much, and not know about a lot of artists I currently do, but I would also spend a lesser total of money on music. I also wouldn't have dragged two other people along to the Emilie Autumn show when she was here in Minneapolis.
Just because your right to be armed IS infringed upon doesn't mean is SHOULD be. There should be no limit to what weaponry a private citizen should be allowed to make, buy, sell, or possess. It SHOULD be fully legal to walk down the street with an RPG on your shoulder. Denying you that right is infringement.
I'm stuck using Microsoft because the software I use for my job (Mastercam) only runs on Microsoft. Sure you can run it on a Mac or in Linux, on a virtual machine that's running Windows.
I doubt the program decided to add this feature on its own; much more likely its human master(s) added it. I see where you're going, but you're a bit premature.
I've compared it to picking a combination lock, when explaining it to my boss. You can make a rough guess based on the number of digits in the lock, but for any given lock you could be off by orders of magnitude.
Then I throw out that number completely, and just multiply the time it took me to develop that script by five. This method has proven disturbingly accurate.
So you spend 16% of the project time developing estimates?
16% of HIS project time. That's a small percentage of the team's man-hours if it's a large team.
I would say there is a real and present danger of shock when your battery is you vehicle skin. I've seen a lot of cars with puncture damage. Puncturing such a charged sheet, be it battery or capacitor, would result in rapid, high-amperage discharge. This would cause melting and vaporization of the material, releasing toxic vapors and probably starting the whole vehicle on fire. Adjacent panels, when exposed to the radiant heat and spattering molten metal, would have a high likelihood of melting their insulating layers and shorting as well. I don't really want to be sitting inside a 100 kilowatt-hour battery when it self-discharges over a matter of seconds.
Smoke belching vehicles? How about electric car companies blowing smoke? Electric cars have been vaporware for years; they keep predicting that they'll bring an affordable one to the general market in "a year or two". Wait a year or two and it's "another year or two."
There would be a limit to the volume of cooling material, and hence the thermal mass, that could be moved through the chip in any given unit of time. That would limit the cooling capacity and therefore the wattage of the unit. Diamond traces running through the chip to exterior thermal transfer pads would be much more effective; the thermal conductivity of diamond is around 1000 - 2500 W/m K depending on details, compared to 429 W/m K for silver which is next best. The large thermal transfer pads could then move the heat into a liquid cooling system, perhaps aided by Peltier units if you want to get fancy.
All I can think is "I will kill him!" I had the Paul and Sting knife fighting action figures stuck in the light over the kitchen table for about a decade looking down on everyone with their knives at the ready; no one noticed.
There are some pretty good bionic / cybernetic / prosthetic arms with over twenty degrees of freedom, that are controlled by what's left of the arms original nerves. As for the requirements, the TFA looks like they haven't yet been determined.
Courtroom sketches don't really show anything happening, at least not anything controversial. They're just pictures of people standing around talking.
I would say there's a fair amount of liability in this "animated news". If you show someone doing something based on hearsay, and you can't prove it happened, you could get slammed for slander. That could even include your depiction of a bystander gawking at the incident.

Cop: "Sir, did you see or hear anything about a killing last night?"
Citizen: "No, I don't even have a gun."
Cop: "Ha! We didn't tell you it was a shooting, that proves you were in on it!"
That actually happened, though I'm paraphrasing.

Nah, by his own words, he just multiplied the actual time by 4.
Fail. 2 days x 4 = 4 weeks?
Plus they could simulate a system of multiple computers communicating and analyze the behavior of the system as a whole.
What if your virus (biological) detecting chip gets a virus (computer)?

But what are you going to compare it to in order to find out?
You could buy a Diamond / Sapphire Radeon card...

From TFA it looks like they haven't set the goals yet.
I don't think my subconscious would do my job very well even if it wanted to.
In Soviet Russia, meme references you!

Come on, Mr Burns would never be convicted. He can buy too many good lawyers. He could probably buy the judge too.
One way to handle the "panel truck scenario" is to make it known that the source of fuel if traced will be considered the attacker.
What do you do when they use a stolen US warhead against us, or when middle eastern terrorists use a stolen Russian one against us?
