other think that humans have turned green pasture into deserts since mesopotamia, with irrigation a doomed attempt to postpone the inevitable outcome, accelerating it by adding salinization of fields.
As already explained by I don't remember who, it can be a correct measure, if your objective is to have a lot of people in a few years.
Parallelize, and start over many times, and of course, each baby still take nine months to "produce", but globally, each 9 women will get you a baby a month.
It is not Project, it is Run. Different objectives, different rules, different outcomes.
"Think about how stupid the average person is. Now, realise that half of them are dumber than that." is false. It should read : "Think about how stupid the median person is. Now, realise that half of them are dumber than that."
That's exactly why I advocate complete removal of IP from the law. The only method to fight unreasonable demands is to made unreasonable demands in the other direction. Reasonable arguments are no longer a sane strategy.
... IP laws where removed so as to prevent the monopolization of species when (not if, look for the literature) genes jump from GMO to naturally occuring varieties.
because it's the perfect solution for some problems.
What are your needs ? Is it reusing some old hardware you have ? or have you a usage in mind ?
I have one running raspbian, and it's an always on headless server for http, https, googleprint and ssh (don't forget to install fail2ban;-). Never was there any access to this machine except putting an sd card and using ssh. The case is a folded plastic sheet (google is your friend for that). It is the perfect (if underpowered) solution for my very personnal needs. It doesn't means it is the perfect one for you.
And don't forget that a way to put old hardware to productive use is to put it on ebay and buy something else with the profits.
the french constitutional concil justified Hadopi by the balance between freedom of expression and property rights.
If freedom of expression (which doesn't really legaly exist in Europe as strongly as in the US) must always be balanced with property rights, only money can really speaks its mind.
The headline : "French president has revealed his plan for a balanced budget and a trade balance that does not involve more taxes" is perfectly believable. The plan in itself, that's another story.
Trademark is a privatisation of vocabulary. To be morally justified, it must have a purpose for all, not just for the trademark holder. What is the common justification is as a proxy for characteristics and quality of the trademarked goods. But when the trademark holder decrease the quality, or change the country of origin, and keep using the mark to use the goodwill it represent, he should lose his trademark, because the trademark is now used only for his benefit, as a mean to lie to consumers. Of course, morality and business are distinct worlds...
Now, iphone means apple for you. It meant something else before (from wikipedia : The first iPhone model, released by Infogear in 1998, combined the features of a regular phone and a web terminal).
"it's in a constant state of half-assed/never-finished/abandoned" could as easily qualify commercial software, but you have to visit the kitchen to know it. it's all a matter of transparency and visibility. Now, for sure, some people doesn't want to know all the gory details, and just need to have something working. But you can just as easily ignore the different linux contributors, and just use a working distro. The only drawback(and perhaps it is not even one), if this attitude is generalized, is that you remove from the programmers pool those who are there only for ego boosting.
from http://www.azcentral.com/members/Blog/BusinessBuzz/166606, and many others "The cost to Google for the premium model’s additional 8 GB of memory is a mere $7.50, which means Google makes an additional profit of $42.50 every time it sells one of the 16 GB devices, IHS said."
So, if you can sync without google play, and are happy with 8 Go of media and programs between connection to your home, it makes no sense to buy the 16 Go version.
And if you want a lot of memory, it makes no sense to buy the Nexus 7, which does not accept micro SD cards.
Every vote that doesn't occur in a supervised place can be sold, extorted, etc... That include correspondance voting, of course, but usually for small numbers unlikely to change the result. The fact that the transmission is not reliable is nothing compared to the whole mess of distance voting.
Slashdot Mirror
duckduckgo. (ok, it's a meta search engine)
Google is not as good as it was. I'm obliged to ask verbatim nearly every search, when it was the default.
as do billions of Android phones...
which should be required viewing for all slashdotters

Turkish productivity up 15 % in a few weeks
all /. articles on the subject load, then reload, then reload, then I close the tab.
So, I have no idea what all this is about.

35760m in 3309 days is about 45 cm/h

agreed. Just a reaction to the title of the post, in those days of Google I/O
It's so old school.

why introduce machines, when you have litteraly centuries of debug and tuning for paper based voting ?
It's a BAD IDEA!
