What if the URL I'm visiting is a "secret". Some of the URLs that I use for work are not linked to by anyone else so that google will never track it so that other labs won't have access to our programs/files. Will this feature just track all URLs and give the world access to things it should not have access to?
You must write in Latex. It's a more powerful for formatting and avoids exactly this problem. And no, they're not too busy to use it because using Word takes up more time in the long run.
30 meters of laser path? Why would that stop you from fitting it on a table? You just bend it around with mirrors, like any other optics experiment.
One of the earlier Wake-Field experiments was done by UCLA at SLAC.
The problem with using a wake-field to accelerate particles, such as electrons, is that you lose a huge amount of current density.
You're basically using the energy of many electrons to sort of sling-shot and accelerate a few electrons. So that way the majority of electrons are "left behind" while the few are energized to however many GeV that they're talking about.
The significance of only having a few electrons? Well, if you're trying to observe particles colliding with other particles, you'd want to throw as many particles at it as possible to get as much data as possible. Using the wake-field method, you'll get the seldom particle-particle collission, but they'll be of an extremely high energy. So it depends on what kind of data you want to get.
Well, in our lab we take images of particles that we watch with our microscopes. So we have hundreds of gigabytes of data that need to be backed up for future use. For the time being we've been backing up on DVD since you can't beat a DVD's cost per megabyte (10-20 cents).
I think it's strange the he acknowledges that Windows has limitations and that users would switch to the Mac out of preference simply because, as implied, the Mac doesn't have these 'limitations'. So why shouldn't they switch in that case? You're a lemming if you use something that's inherently better and without limitation?
I think you're more of a lemming if you use Windows just because everyone else does and everyone at work does and it's what you "need" to use for interoperability's sake.
I think it's ironic that in response to an article that talks about how socially inept we slashdotters are, a lot of people responded with truly funny remarks!
You may not believe me or realize it, but aside from weapons, the Saudis spend most of their money on blue chip stocks, not palaces. Sure, they build palaces for themselves, but most of their oil money goes towards buying stock in IBM, MS, GE, and other huge companies.
They know that oil won't last forever, so they're investing in their own futures with our companies and our successful economy. It's all one party, which is why they're our economic partners.
The movie search feature's been in there for quite a while...
radio audo synched with TiVo video?

TiVo to Offer SDK

My number one request for TV watching is the ability to replace the audio feed from the TV with an external audio source (radio).
Specifically, I want to mute commentators during football games and listen to the radio commentators instead. However, I need the voices of the radio commentators perfectly synched with the action on the field. Any ideas on how to do this? Would the SDK help?
Later this year Panasonic, I think, will be releasing DVDs that hold 50 GB on a side using a blue laser. Of course, that's still not even close to a TB.
I've never used them, but have you considered tape drives? HP makes good tape drives. They can store 3 GB on a single tape and store it at a rate of 80 GB/hour.
It's good for archiving. So you can't exactly rapidly access the stuff again later. I assume if you wanted it back you'd rip the whole tape or large parts of it to your disk(s) and view it that way.
Computers can be used for something other than porn or computer games. It's called work. Often of the scientific type.
Call me crazy, but I was listening to this one song over and over again. I kept switching between 128 mp3, 192 mp3, 320 mp3, and I'd listen to 128 AAC sometimes too.
I cannot tell the difference between CD and 320 mp3. There is a very subtle difference between CD and 192. 128 is a joke.
For AAC, I've found that importing the song at 192 is about the same as 320 mp3.
Give it a shot. Take some song that has some subtle sounds, like accoustic guitar, and listen to it. Import it from the original CD and listen to all the formats. It's surprising. I used the song "Battery" from Metallica because it has a mix of sounds. Specifically at the beginning where they're using 1 or 2 accoustic guitars.
At the University of Massachusetts in Amherst they disconnect your connection if they detect that your machine has a virus or any other form of malware.
It works quite well. You have to establish that your machine is clear, using the campus computer techs.
People like you make me really mad. But then I have to remember that you're only ignorant. The terrorists and Talebans of the world don't actually follow Islam. They say they do, sure, but none of their questionable practices are written anywhere in the Quran. In fact, I do not know of a single nation in the world today that follows Islam in its true form. Islam, unlike other reigions, has a secular component too, describing how business and law are to be conducted. This is to be done fairly and equally, men and women.
Then again, all religion sucks, but if you're going to put it down, know what you're putting down and atleast know what to call it.

Yeah, I hate how people tend to think that any good school in the North is "Ivy". MIT isn't IVY, for example.

No, that's a really arrogant statement.

I am more worried about Diebold "hacking" their own machines than any voter.

Sending in the dead iPod is such a brilliant idea.
I love you, Slashdot.

You just replace that fan with the heat spreader and heat pipe unit.

Not sure if someone's answered this already:
Now that the Xserve G5 is here, will they use those for a clustered super-computer?
