Summary of parent for the busy among us: "You can't say they 'give it away', because they still control when and where it is donated". A thoroughly boring read.
Anything that help people forget the device (including not making it shine) would serve the goal of reducing the barrier between user and web. The caps-lock button has been removed, but in those pictures there is a button in the same spot. Is it a google-button?
For a few billion popular Web pages, Google will store the images of the pages. For others, it will generate the preview on the fly, in less than one-tenth of a second, Mr. Krishnan said.
DNA is in fact data, and does encode behaviour, in the same way that a stream of bits can encode data or actions. The difference is that DNA is base-four and is interpreted through molecular machinery in ways that are far more complicated than any human-designed instruction set or data format..
There is another difference: The computers are not build by the data they contain. I can get on board if the analogy is comparing humans to the software.
I think they care a great deal, the same way they care about medical research. Immigration policies, adoption and eating habits are all examples of big subjects closely related to the nature/nurture issue.
Nurture will give direction, Nature will limit the abilities.
I think you may be confusing nurture with training. In any case, nurture can certainly be limiting (as in eating habits effect on athletic performance) and nature can give directions (the giraffe will eat from tall trees).
Google would have a better case to make if they had not threatened to block their content for facebook just yesterday. http://goo.gl/WyBJM (slashdot.org)
His brother (the other guy who made google maps) will stay with google. So it seems that relations between the two internet companies, at least at the top, are not as hostile as they often are portrayed.
What's the problem? Can't Facebook get attract good developers the regular way anymore?
Wishful thinking on your part, I'm afraid.
All data indicate the excact opposite, so the current moderation of your comment as insightful is a bit bewildering.

So that quote is from the article (gizmodo), where Jesus expresses his own opinion.
The "capitals" reply might have been a joke that went over YOUR head. Ironically, such jokes are called deadpans.
The removal of any key would not improve the quality of that comment.
I will give you advice:
1. Install Ubuntu
2. Install Chrome
3. Chrome OS equivalent obtained!

Thank you, that was very informative. Very informative indeed.
On a serious note, I remember this article http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/28/business/28trader.html?dbk=&pagewanted=all about day-traders, and if memory serves it addresses the second part of your first question - ie. they explain how day traders often are tricked by the trading algorithms.
what's the betting that our elected representatives can?
Don't worry, they have lobbyists to help them.
Yes I do, it was an attempt at humor.
They make up for it in the satellite picture.. there it is all green :)

The quiet is due to people not caring.

This could become a revenue stream for facebook.. The leaking of royalty's hidden profile pictures to tabloids
The Queen is 84 years old, in case you were wondering :)
I think that would quckly bring the argument of "I can find XYZ on google but not 60 minutes" into play. XYZ being something indelicate. .

The distinction is blurring perhaps
I for one hope they will keep the distinction between cyberwar and actual war.
It was not implied that the two are anti-competitive.
