So Intel is top dog given that nVidia is only producing 2.3Tflops, right? I guess AMD gave up on HPC. If I read the wiki right, their top card does 0.1Tflops
It still boggles my mind how we live in the Information Age and this data was not automatically uploaded and calculated. I'm not saying it dosent require a human to sign off on, but it's mildly insane it isn't all automatically calculated and simply checked.
Is there some reason they shouldn't just use 100% thrust at takeoff and make sure the cargo being carried was less than the maximum capacity?
I'm looking for two things: clarification of his sentence structure, and more detailed documentation on the birth defects he's talking about - exposure values, developmental windows during exposure, type of defects, as much data as he can cite.
I have a wife who is seven months pregnant and a 3D printer that mostly runs ABS. You do the math about why I'm digging for detailed info.
First, it was 75TB, not 75GB. Very big difference. Second, they aren't saying 75TB is >= unlimited. They're saying they've decided unlimited isn't feasible and are discontinuing it as an option. Completely different.
They're also calling the upload of 75TB abuse, which it isn't.
I dunno, it's hardly false advertising to say "this policy isn't working for us, we're changing it going forward, but you can keep that extra storage for 12 months as compensation". Because that's what they're doing. Is it false advertising to ever change what plans you choose to offer?
Changing the offering is fine, of course you've got to offer your customers a refund. I guess it's not really false advertising to call the 70TB upload abuse, but it might be slanderous?
Don't advertise as unlimited if uploading 70TB of data is too much.
Exactly. The whole incident did give me a good laugh. They offered a service, then complain and call it "abuse" when a customer uses the service as it was advertised.
Hopefully the "offenders" go to the trouble to get a refund from Microsoft.
It looks like the current marketshare is under 12% and in a decline.
Is it any wonder, with bone headed moves like completely blocking support for some plugins (ahem, flash)? I moved off the nightly builds onto waterfox for this very reason. I'll be the one in charge of deciding which plugins I do/don't run thank you very much.
Doesn't firefox already have notes (without an addon)? It's kind of a hassle on my touch enabled devices, actually. All browsers even ie2 have quick commands for navigating and feature use. So it's a new browser that brings tab stacking to the table!
You may feel different when some distracted driver runs over your kid. This isn't just about protecting people from themselves. Distracted drivers are a danger to other people as well.
Which is why manually operated cars should be outlawed.
I think Java is being used correctly (in the PDF/paper http://arxiv.org/pdf/1509.0774... ) and the article linked, does not confuse the terms.
You're mistaken. They include the source. It's definitely javascript despite the article referencing it as a "Google Java Applet". Maybe he wrote the article in Yahoo Go on his Microsoft iPad.
From: TFA: CORRECTION: Due to a reporting error, an earlier version of the story misidentified the product that has been retired. It is the Skylake-C and not the Broadwell-C that has been discontinued.
If they have a TV, then all they need is this: Rasberry PI. $30
OK. Actually, it's a little more than that for the version that has WiFi and enough USB ports. Otherwise you would have to add a powered USB hub, which again adds to the cost.
USB Keyboard $1
Grow up.
USB Mouse $1
Grow up.
SD Card $1
Grow up.
Micro USB Cell phone charger $5
OK.
You have a fully functional Linux desktop computer.
Not until someone capable has made a significant investment of time to install and set up the OS, you haven't. Yeah, for you or me it would be no problem to fix one up, but how about for an entire class of schoolkids? And you left out an HDMI cable to attach it to the TV, and we would both be ASSUMING the kid has access to an HDMI TV which he would not have to fight the parents and siblings for to get primetime evening use for homework.
Sure you can spend more and get a better computer, but this one will get it done on the cheap.
I'm tuned in to the sentiment, but the way I realistically check prices, the total cost for all items mentioned would be pretty close to $70 rock bottom, if not more, PLUS labor, which is pretty sad when you think about it. And when you were done you would have this fragile thing dangling from wires which could easily get knocked on the floor and stepped on.
I WANT this to be viable, oh how I want it, but realistically, um...
Umm.. where did you check, a local "rip you off" pc shop? Sigh...
The old rasberry pi is cheaper and has two usb, that's all you need. That's all I need on each of the rasberry pi's that I use for this purpose. Personally I prefer wired networking on a non portable device. Don't students get ethernet connections in their dorm rooms? Most places they do.
Sure, you could get better of everything on the list, but you don't HAVE to. If you want a computer on the cheap, you can do it with a pi, really cheap. $35.33 (with the hub) plus shipping. If you could live with used parts I think you could do even slightly better, perhaps even on the pi.

We need fewer white males and more women and minorities to go to college!
Hasn't that been exactly the trend for some time now?
Guess I read it wrong. FirePro S9170 produces 2.6Tflops.

So they've invented soda?
That's "Pop" up north and "Soda Pop" in between.
It's "coke" down south. Regardless of whether or not it's actually pepsi or RC.

Keep your parts away from that woman!

How did the world get by before vivaldi?
That headline appears to have been written by Yoda.
How about "Yale makes 170,000 photographs from WWII period available online."
Nazi of grammar, you are.
I think we done broke it.
Damn you, I wanted to have a look!
Which is not available for nexus 7 (2012) and older devices...
Nearly 4 years is way beyond the reasonable lifespan for a phone. Upgrade. Personally, I like a new one at least every year.

I've never seen a more well spoken coward, bravo!
Diesel vehicles are more fuel-efficient than gasoline vehicles and are definitely part of the fuel mix for a low carbon future.
You had me up until that part. Vehicles with combustion motors are not part of a low carbon future.
... who elected the politicians who let this happen.
Not the American people.. if you go by election results for the last 15 or so years...
Just email video clips back and forth? Or upload them to youtube, and send links via email. You can make videos private on there.

Isn't NSW the place that also made it pretty much illegal for two "bikey blokes" to ride together?
Is that when gay couples ride tandem bicycles?

Keyboard: $4.75: http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-SK-8825-104-key-USB-Keyboard/dp/B007V6YIGI I have this keyboard on one of my machines, it's fine. I did underestimate the price by $3.75 I guess.
4GB Sandisk SDHC card: $0.01 http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Micro-Flash-Memory-adapter/dp/B0018Z7Y28 I use a sandisk microsdhc with one of my pi's. This 4GB model is overkill, but it will do the job. Power adapter: $2.99 http://www.amazon.com/ReadyPlug®-Wall-Charger-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B00NVYQWOK
If you do want that USB HUb, you'll be glad to know it's a whopping $0.20 http://www.amazon.com/White-4-Outport-480Mbps-Splitter-Adapter/dp/B012LBKR58
