If you looked at the last sentence I had in that post which commented that it wouldn't happen because it is not in nature, you would understand. Tell me if I go to fast for you...
- Chicken feathers provide warmpth... - Without feathers, chicken freezes in winter... - Natural selection mixed with random mutation would filter out the population so only the fatter ones would live because they would be able to keep in their body warmpth, and survive... it's called "evolution"
Ontological terms?? What does metaphysics have to do with natural selection?
I just took a System Admin class at my local community college (im a senior in HS as well... dual enrollment). My teacher was the admin for Ford, and he started off in the Air Force as well. Looks like he turned out pretty good....
Yes, the pillars are fading, but no, they are not dieing, but instead they are creating.
These pillars of gas are forming into the small planets, moons, asteroids, and possibly more stars within the clouds.... Stars do not form instantly, they have to grow dense, then explode in a frenzy of fusion to be born. Our conclusions are far to premature...
We are not looking at its death, but instead its birth...
knowing that the pillars will fade in a million years or so means the picture has lost a little of its appeal.
Not at all. That fact has created that picture into a record of time.
What a lot of people are missing is the fact that the moon is in such an orbit that only one side faces us at any given time (look for yourself.... heh). This orbit is far to delicate for any captured rock, or huge chunk of earth that was smashed off by an asteroid could create, it had to have been that the moon was an actual part of the earth, but gave the earth a lop-sided form. So centripital (spelling?) force caused that chunk to rip off from the earth, creating the moon we have today.
(no, it doesn't have to be necessarily a chunk, but most likely a big scoop pf molten rock... from when the earth was in a molten state.)
Did you really think we thought a large object hit Earth, and ejected a perfectly spherical rock?
Well thats how everything started. Basically huge chunks of rock slammed together to make the planets, and over time, smaller ones filled in the gaps, the pressure created a molten core, and the core smoothed everything out.
How does this guy pull off trying to make a link between the Enigma machine and Gnutella?
Sure, both are going against some sort of protection, but seriously, do you want to get your story posted that bad that you have to throw in something about Copywrite protection and the DMCA? This entire article was pointless....
he runs his own domain, but the dumbass has a HOTMAIL account! what a dork
Probably not his main mailbox, but just a drop box for all the "we told you so -- if you sleep with the devil don't complain when you get raped" mails. He would be foolish to put his real business e-mail address under such a whiny piece...
Yet he has no problem with posting the work addresses of all the Microsoft folk who he worked with.
What?? He's pissed at them! Why would he care about their mailbox traffic? He's out of a job, but lets make sure to keep MS's personal mailboxes all neat, tidy, and spam free..
Whoa... think about what this means. This would mean that space is not like a sphere expanding from a point of almost nothing into the fourth dimension, it means that space goes on forever! An infinite number of civilizations....
....that conclusion of yours has nothing to do with what was being discussed...
And it does actually mean that it is a sphere that is expanding from a single point.... it just returns to that point when it collapses in again.
Space (by its basic definition) does go on forever. That has been accepted for a long time. You are thinking that matter expands forever. This theory says nothing of the sort, but instead the opposite...
Isn't TIME a part of the equatoin that makes up our universe? So if our universe ceased to exist, would time cease as well?
....where did you get the thought of the universe not existing from?
It'll just form into another really really tiny ball of super dense matter. The universe is there, just really small.
If time is merely a finite piece of our universe
Time is not finite, so your problem will never exist.... he may run into the problem of traveling to the next big bang.... which would suck for him, heh.
People confuse time and matter. Time does not exist in matter, matter exists in time. Time is the control, and matter is just along for the ride.
Personally I don't think time and matter have any interaction. I think time is just a way of measuring intervals of action... and it's not another dimension...
I doubt that the equation has some value over temperature (or momentum, KE, whatever). This really isn't saying that there is error in its own position or momentum in real life, but just in how we calculate it.
Our mathematical abilities are far... far from those necessary to fully understand the universe.
There is a study that is monitoring the north pole, yet all you can think about is your stupid linux? Get a life... linux isn't as great as you all make it out to be...
Ebonics caused such a big flap because most Americans without any linguistic training don't understand what it was about. The whole point of it was acknowledging that African American Vernacular English (AAVE) is a substantially different dialect than Standard American English (SAE) which follows many different grammatical and syntactic rules and has a different vocabulary.
The big flap about it in America is that Ebonics is just the evolved form of speaking that started with under-educated slaves... nothing more. It is just the misuse of standard English caused by their idiocy.
It is also a way for them to segregate themselves more, so they can keep complaining about their rights and get more attention and money. If they want to be equal, they need to stop isolating themselves with BET, The United Negro College Fund, and Black History Month. And it's funny... if we had a United Caucasian College Fund, WET, or White History Month..... they would protest....
the states' proposals would confuse consumers, enabling competitors to cover up icons like the "Start" button on the Windows desktop screen that consumers use to navigate and even allowing a competing operating system like Linux to start up instead of Windows.
are they saying that some confused customer will create a new paration on their HD, format it, and install and configure linux on it all out of confusion???
They've even collected good evidence that the speed of light has changed over time... I'm really starting to doubt einstein.
Citations, please?
I'm not sure what theories they were, but my physics professors have told me that Einstein has been proven wrong before.
Gave the link above in another reply... but here it is again. I thought it was pretty damn big news and most people who knew their physics would know about it... I'm just goin into college and I knew.:\
I don't think any real revelations or changes have been made, or need to be made for that matter, to our current theories, but it's quite interesting and it does lead to more thining; showing us that there is still much to be learned.

I think you don't really know anything, do you?
The naked chicken, as it has been dubbed, is also a low calorie bird because the lack of feathers means the chicken has less fat.
I would think that it would gain fat since it has no feathers to trap in its own body heat...
but then again, that would only happen if this bird was in nature...
better yet, get a sun lenz for a telescope..... its made for looking at the sun and it wont change it to any funky color.
hahahahahahahahah!!!
So the only reason that Microsoft has kept its code a secret is to keep everybody from knowing how shitty their programmers are?!! HAHAHAHAHAHAH!
...is that you chose computer science... not engineering.
if you're going to post something, make sure it it's more than THREE POSTS DOWN FROM YOU!!!

...the possibility of microchips which use the "spin" of an electron to perform their functions.
I thought that was the basis of quantum computing? At least when I read about it 2 years ago it was..... called a qbit?

...file a lawsuit against the label since they purposely damaged their computer? Isn't distruction of property an illegal thing??
I want to see someone take this to court. Too bad I dont buy celine dion...

Their business plan was to make money off Microsoft.
...now microsoft will take RealNames idea and making it their own... along with the money....
every day I get more and more pissed off at the pseudo-government that Microsoft is becoming...
when will it end?

...did you even read the article?!
But it makes sense for the universe to have "always existed"?
It makses as much sense as the universe being created from nothing.....
Isn't TIME a part of the equatoin that makes up our universe? So if our universe ceased to exist, would time cease as well?

This really isn't a huge idea........ you just take two theories about the universe, and put them together.... and wow, they fit perfectly...
I made that statement in a frekin slashdot post last week, but I'm not famous for it....

Yes, but can you imagine the instructions from the tech support??
the states' proposals would confuse consumers, enabling competitors to cover up icons like the "Start" button on the Windows desktop screen that consumers use to navigate and even allowing a competing operating system like Linux to start up instead of Windows.
