I know this is slashdot but is it too much to ask to at least read the summary:
The system can be overridden temporarily. If a car is overtaking a lorry on a motorway and enters a lower speed-limit area, the driver can push down hard on the accelerator to complete the maneuver.
So you have the power when you need it. Just hit the accelerator to the bottom and it will bypass the limit.
Next EU law: website will make it impossible to comment without having read the corresponding article.
The problem is not that it is the cause of accidents. The problem is that it increases the risk of fatalities for all user: https://ec.europa.eu/transport.... Hitting a pedestrian at 32km/h kills the pedestrian 5 times out of 100. Hitting a pedestrian at 64km/h kills the pedestrian 85 times out of 100.
My son enjoy taking is bike to go ride with is friend. I sure hope it doesn't get involve in an accident but if it ever happens, I'd prefer that the car was forcing the driver to respect that 30km/h limit in the village. And if he bypassed the system then he would have to take the responsabilities for it. And by the way, I don't understand people speeding in densely populated area. Most of the time you're doing small distances in those areas. Here in Belgium the 30km/h zones are at most 2km long I'd say. It takes 4 minutes at 30km/h, why would you risk lives of people for earning at most 3 minutes. The speed limits are not there to annoy people, they are there to limit the inertia of your car when you'll hit that wall, people, what else, the day you have a problem. And we all make mistakes and accidents. And also for those "pilots", king of the roads, even if it's not you the problem, if you are speeding on the highway and I overtake someone forgetting to look in my mirror and you hit me, it will be my fault indeed, but we will both die, if you'd respect the speed limit, we'd still be alive so that you would be able to receive the money from my insurance.
Not judging the GMO debate here. This could be linked to the problem with giant monoculture. Of course with only one species grown on large areas, the respective pest will strive. Here we have multiple species, engineered to be nearly the same except for bug resistance, so the bug population is kept under control. Before we had smaller areas, with completely different species, some of those who also did not share the same bugs and the result was the same: more bug diversity, which also means less of the bad one.
I think it has been known for some time now that growing multiple, different species will reduce pests proliferation.
With 48bits and the number of people connected at one point to a wifi AP, wouldn't it be possible to randomize the MAC address ? Even with a thousand connected people, which I think could never occur, the rate of collision would be less then 1 in a hundred billion. I think nowadays most chips allows changing the mac, but I'm not sure about wireless mobile chipsets.
Do not forget that there can only be one mining robot harvesting vespene gas at a time, so more robots != more gas. Also be careful not to disturb the Protoss...
You mean employees are not considered as investment anymore. Nowadays, workforce expenses are just another accounting variable that, like the rest, you have to minimise. Manager salaries and shareholders dividends are completely different though. For some (which ?) reason they should always be increased.
But Rachel Obbard, a materials scientist at Dartmouth College, was shocked to find that currents had carried the stuff to the Arctic.
So you dump stuff into a giant whirlpool and you're shocked to find that the stuff ends up in various random place. Maybe they thought it would magically disappear ? Oh sorry, we are talking about science.
I was looking at a river last fall and was shocked to see all the dead leaves agglomerated at a few random place.
I find that for me, trying to learn some new tech or framework without a real project behind it never works. I just can't go through a tutorial without having a real use for it. I will simply stop at some point.
This sets off a reaction in which one of the neutrons in the nickel atom splits into a proton, an electron and an antineutrino. This changes the nickel into copper, and releases energy without dangerous ionizing radiation.
So l do not really see a recycling/upgrading/replacing process.
Big finance people are already taking all the money, now they are also (indirectly) cutting down on education. Poor and uneducated people, rich and knowledgeable lords, well come back 500 years ago.
It's no matter/antimatter problem.
I'm pretty sure these dupes are part of an experiment about transmitting information at speed greater then light by quantum entanglement of slashdot stories. It will make the headline in popsci next week...
I recommend again Gandi. They have very good service, very good ethics (completely adds free) and an XML API for managing your account if you choose the reseller account (which you would want anyway with 50+ domains). They ask 12EUR/year for a.com domain. I already recommended them yesterday for their email offer which is free with your domains.
Check Gandi.net. If you host your domain with them, you'll get 5 email boxes for free with 1Gb par box and IMAP access. They have a nice policy of not throwing a zillion adds at you, good ethics and have very good support. You'll also have the possibility to host a blog. This for the price of 12EUR per year!.
Gives a whole new meaning to Blue Screen of Death?
In today's cars, the engines are already computer controlled: for example, the fuel injector, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_injector . That does not mean it run on Windows or any full fledged OS.
If a protocol is some day implemented, it will run on special hardware and be developed using the same kind of procedure used in airplane software. Well, one might hope...
I know that IPV6 support 128 bit addresses but it also has a lot of other improvement/differences that might be slowing down it's adoption. Why not keep the IPV4 protocol but just changing the ip address size?
This certainly is a stupid idea but please explain me why.

This move is a step in the right direction.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Yep indeed, and let's start an "I have a smaller id than you" thread to celebrate this, because, you know, I've been here for a longer time ;)

As far as I know, the whole .a file gets linked in each time unless you use -fdata-sections when compiling and -Wl,--gc-sections when linking.

It's a bit more complicated than a simple sql injection: see http://blog.phusion.nl/2013/01/03/rails-sql-injection-vulnerability-hold-your-horses-here-are-the-facts/
They now just have to find somebody which would score as low risk and they won't have any trouble.
It allows using a bigger fan rotating slower which greatly reduce noise.

Fair enough.
