There's nothing about the Xilinx bitstream encryption that prevents you from loading in an unencrypted bitstream, or a new bitstream with a new key.
Unfortunately it means that it's easier to compromise/clone/tamper with FPGA designs. FPGA cloning/tampering has been a big problem for Cisco as I understand it (Huawei products).
But the presence of a constant magnetic field would spawn eddy currents on the rotating part of the heat sink and the fluid itself, leading to heat losses and magnetic resistance created by the eddy currents themselves.
Obviously, this isn't set in stone (I can't remember the details), but I remember having to solve a rather complex exercise very similar to this in my Electromagnetic Fields course (I'm an EE). It sure would be interesting, though, to know if this effects could be rendered negligible by using some other materials.
I took a course in my university that was called "Introduction to music", which was pretty good. One day, our teacher showed us a BBC documentary that was narrated by George Martin. Sadly, I haven't been able to find it. It was a very interesting show, because he talked exactly about this subject. He analyzed some popular songs and related them to the way he thought music producing is, and shared some interesting ideas.
For instance, he said that popular songs tend to be in the 120 bpm range because our hearts beat approximately at that frequcency, and we find it more pleasurable to walk at that particular speed. To illustrate that idea, he took a Bee Gees song and tore it apart (Stayin' Alive, IIRC), and said that we like to walk and sing-along with tunes that have some correlation with our heartbeats.
On a personal note, I find that most songs in the popular repertoire have the same verse-chorus structure because, in some ways, it's easier for a writer to compose a song in that way instead of having to ellaborate in different key circles for each part that share a common idea. Think of Coldplay's "42" or Radiohead's "Paranoid Android" (Doug Adams should be proud!). Those two songs don't have a normal verse-chorus structure and are somewhat difficult to follow because of it.
For a pop singer it's easier to write a catchy song if it has a very singable chorus to which people can sing-along.
Sir George Martin really made me think about popular music, being an amateur musician myself.
Yes, exactly. I've been using TrueCrypt for my important info (mostly pr0n), and have had no problems. It lets you choose between different encryption algorithms (blowfish, twofish, AES, and others I can't remember) and allows you to encrypt individual files, mount an encrypted virtual volume or encrypt your entire hard drive. And, as usual on/., its FOSS.
TFA says that this malware leaks a list of granted permissions and prompts the user to install a.jar in his/her device. If the user does install it, the device becomes a zombie.
What would the course of action be if your Android phone is infected? Keep in mind that smartphones are kind of the ideal botnet zombie for a DDoS attack since they are always on and, presumably, have access to the network.
I think it's time for a good Android antivirus/malware/spyware/thingware or for a tighter app publication process from Google.
I think it would be kind of like watching things with a strobe light. I read somewhere that the retina "holds" the image it's getting for some time, that the image doesn't need to be persistent in order to see it, but I digress, it's just a theory loosely based on some reports I'm not even sure I read
Well, if the display is 240Hz it could provide 3D for 2 players (if the console supports it), or 2D for 4 players, I guess. it's only a matter of how high the refresh rate is
In my country, for instance, there is no train service. If you want to travel, you have to do it by plane or bus. The railroad network has been rusting for almost half a century. It's actually very sad. Rail Transport in Colombia
Would it have real consequences to extract the planet core's heat to use it for our own purposes? I admit that the amount of energy extracted by geothermal is insignificant compared to the total heat inside the planet; but if we managed to make the temperatures drop by a few degrees celsius inside, wouldn't it disrupt plate tectonics or the earth's magnetic field or something else? It's an open question, I'm by no means familiarized with this field, so any answers wolud be greatly appreciated.
If I read the (surprisingly good) google translation correctly, the traction results from a photon emmision into the opposite direction of the beam. If the beam is continously applied, wouldn't the beam itself propel the particles more than it 'pulls' them? would this be solved by a stroboscopic laser?
They could be used as a cheap air bridge in war-time (at least cheaper than conventional freight airplanes). Just imagine airships in WW2 flying between the US and the UK

Beware! On behalf of everyone I know, I say: Yeah, right.... There's nothing to see here, move along

What I'd like to know: is that the MINIMAL set of logic operations required to compute this? How could one prove it?
Apply Karnaugh maps or the Quine-McCluskey method to find the minimal set. It might not be unique, but it'll be minimal.
