So you couldn't wait scooping up until the ppls from WTH had a decent web site up? Now that/. has posted this story in developers, chances are lower we'll get some good attention once the web site is actually online. Man you're just stupid submitting this story this early.
Note that while you are saying this, you have your gmail address plain out for everyone on/. to read and abuse. I don't think you really dislike google...
Why learning with supervision?

I thought this app was learning everything was in the log, and then only showed the new out-of-the-ordinary log entries that didn't quite fit in with the rest. This would allow to filter out freak events from the log and show them to the user. How different would such an app be from the proposed btail? And how confident would you be about such an unsupervised log analyzer?
The same goes for duplicate information. I don't want 200 versions of wikipedia listed when I'm looking for a specific article, nor 200 times the same man page when I'm researching something different of a unix command besides the man page of a command.
I guess that the list of greatest equations would be completely different if polled in a mathematical community, instead of the physics community polled in the referred article. Some of the equations that are in this list, and universal to mathematics and physics (like 1+1=2 and e^i*pi+1=0) would definitely pop up in the mathematics list too, but many other differences will be easy to spot (e.g. mathematicians wouldn't have maxwell's, general relativity, gas laws and the such in their list)
If the camera sees something the driver doesn't, probably a beep or something will go off in the car. And as we all know, those cameras won't be 100% full proof, making unnecessary, false positive beeps all the time, irritating the driver who turns off the system after using it for 2 days or so. I'm not going to buy this as I think the immense flood of false positives will make this system very useless.
Note that the student's result is not a closed formula, and is thus not in conflict with Abel's proof. The system uses convergence (and thus, reuires an infinite number of operations) to find the correct roots.
I second the importance of wikis as project and work management systems. We use one at work and are very happy about it. There's no need to explain something twice, as it's on the wiki. Also, the level of communication in our work group has (slightly) increased. I'm currently sick for a week, stuck at home, not able to get to work. The wiki allows me to stay in contact with the people at work and some of the progress of running projects and technical problems.
However, we are still in a slow start of our wiki. Working with a wiki may not have a steep learning curve, it has a slow growth curve. A lot of fresh creativity, energy and attention is required in order to get your information running and updated. As the system gets familiar, things might be used as a reference, but can stop early too as a result of lack of creativity.
One last thing. The best wiki I've seen, already years ago, was our student union's. But it has not survived recent upgrades of the maintainers and has gone offline. There was an amazing input of creative ideas, and reached MiB's in size in just a couple of months. About 50 users had lots of fun with the system and its changing contents was the daily topic when we were together.

Heh. It's not only my kid that's due, but my PhD is also due by time the kid arrives :) So I'm in double trouble.

My first son is due to be born on Monday.
I hop it's not turning out to be the worst day ever.
Of course you can.
Thanks to all slashdotters to help test whether our box is capable of coping with the /. effect.
I hope you all like the pictures we created and published before ESA came out with theirs.
Much kudos to ESA, NASA and uni of Arizona for having those pictures out for the world to enjoy
Those "craters" you see are photgraphic artefacts, as is said in the caption of the web site.
The images will be posted from the moment they are available at

That joke is so obvious that it's not funny tosee it moderated at +5 moderated
then I wouldn't have been following the keynote with awe, and I wouldn't be as tempted to order a mini mac as I am now.
I wonder how much apple made of this guy. Maybe they should just pay him...
From the looks of it, it will first kick the opponents in their knees so it can freely roam around and kick the ball without any opponents left.
They have put a laser light on a chip. Nothing else, nothing more fancy than that. No applications yet. It's just cool, that's it.
A PhD with no Unix experience? What's that all about? He graduated in philosophy or something and wrote his papers in word or something?

Good thing we bought that swimming pool, it'll come to good use if summer temperatures are bound to be higher in the following years.
Guess who they turn up with when you look for "most evil"

Still amazing to see a design as old as I am still in use.
Note that this article is all about the fact that the Atlas II is no longer used.
Are these guys considering the fact that the mobile base might break down too so that doesn't really solve the problem of rovers breaking down?

Please remind that some european countries have introduced the euro a couple of years ago.
