Well, adding new dimensions is very simple mathematically.
To compare it with the situation of 3 vs 2 dimensions, most people couldn't plot a path from the surface of the Earth to the moon in 3+1(time) dimensions, so it's not like things suddenly get completely easy just because fewer dimensions are involved.
One often overlooked paragraph of the GPL states that the GPL does not apply to separable works. This makes it unnecessary to choose the LGPL over the GPL in many situations.
Of course, we now could have a have discussion what constitutes separability, but lets just say if the work under the GPL is the foundation and walls of the building that is your application, then that house is under the GPL, while it is is not under the GPL if only the windows are under the GPL(as long as you pull the windows out again).
So, to have a closing like, I can be a good thing to remove windows.
It would be rather easy to find the other side of the sky, since it is exactly opposite. The sky is pretty static(as shown by the zodiac signs) because Earth is not moving much relative to the rest of the galaxy, at least not considering the distances involved.
Well I took a look and that would give Virgo, maybe a bit towards Libra as the source. Virgo has several interesting and a few close(10 lyrs) stars.
You say "mathematician" like it is a magic word. Let it be known that I also attempted to study mathematics once upon a time, and also let it be known that science fiction stories and locating alien intelligences is not part of the curriculum of mathematics.
SETI @ Home processes data that is sometimes several years old. The origin could be virtually anywhere in the sky by the time they get around to signal detection - did you actually think this was realtime analysis?
The data comes from scanning specific regions of the sky, so the origin is known, otherwise the whole SETI project would be only marginally useful.
I'm also not suggesting to locate a moving object in the sky, but am working on the assumption that the moving object transmitted a focussed transmission to its home planet, which would be a stationary object, and be exactly on the opposite side.
Did it occur to anyone that when SETI found a strange frequency-shifting signal out of nowhere, to check what star would be on the exact other side of the sky?
Well, some people would call inspecting proxy logs hacking, which is my point.
It might not be a good example, but it sounded to me like the discussion was about how the chinese pulled documents that were "hidden", not password protected in exactly the way you suggest.
Logging into systems without passwords, etc. isn't 'hacking' (or cracking, if you prefer) into 'secure' systems.
Well it depends. Gathering the information where something is stored in itself is like hacking, because there is no difference between having to guess 15135342 in http://somesite.gov/secretdoc/15135342.doc and having to guess 15135342 as a password.
Also, downloading one such document is no hacking, but continuing to do so after you realize that you entered a part of a system in an unexpected way is criminal.
After all, most hacks do something unexpected, especially if you hack a permission system by privilege escalation, then you could just claim "Hey, I had permission to do that";-)
No, it isn't, but you just have to secure a line, not a 3D space, which makes it scale better.
Also QE gets down to the smallest unit that energy can be measured in - your system would still risk to be snooped on by a detector that didn't milk much power. So eventually your system with increasing sophistication would end up being a quantum entanglement system as well.
Your idea is quite useful to detect someone exploting an existing system, but not as a concept for the design of a new system.
Anyone can still use the term "Linux" to describe a software, OS or box, as long as it is actually a Linux system.
I suspect that to say "Linus is going after these companies" is not correct both in legal terms and social terms. It is more like politely asking them to acknowledge that they won't be going to trademark "Linux" themselves.
As you rant about how "Linux" is not enforced, well there you have it, Linus is only sending letters to these companies to be able to claim that he has done steps to enforce it.
RMS is correct in saying that the trademark does not matter, simply because these companies can still use the term "Linux" under fair use.
robots should go to mars first, unfortunately bots can be quite dumb, so it might be a good idea to have someone there who has less than 16 hours reaction time to react quickly.
Why bother to setup such a complicated system when there is quantum transmission already implemented? Ok, it is not wireless, but I suspect a system like yours might detect a security breach every time someone moves his chair..
The authors of the virus infecting Word documents go by the screen names of 'WordCraft' and 'Haxor', authorities said.
Authorities expect soon to catch two more virus authors, codenamed 'D40C' and 'Pr0gr4mm012'. The virus for which they will be hunted down is not yet known, but authorities promise 'it will be a real boo-hoo threat'.

Put with acrimony, you have the choice of turning the firewall on which might make your box useless, or opening all the ports of the default services.
Well actually the firewall works pretty well, I just miss the fine grained control of exactly knowing which app is serving which port, most of the time it just ends up being LSASS, but you don't know which service

Yes, these dupes really are annoying.
Look, he is writing from right to left!
Quickly arrest him, he must be a terrorist!
How evil they are!
unless...
... the signal was from the planet to the moving object
No, SETI researchers were puzzled because there is nothing visible at the location. Of course, maybe there is a Dyson spere ... the signal was from one moving object to another
Yes, that is a tough one. ... the signal was omni-directional or an otherwise wide beam
No, it would still come from one source. ... the signal was directed specifically at Earth
True, and that would be a nice opener for the X-FilesThere are quite a few possibilities here. :^)
Sure there are, I just put forth one theory which can be proved wrong easily simply by looking for close planets on the opposite sky.It would be rather easy to find the other side of the sky, since it is exactly opposite. The sky is pretty static(as shown by the zodiac signs) because Earth is not moving much relative to the rest of the galaxy, at least not considering the distances involved.

Yes, nethack has potions of hallucination(also can result from cram rations).
Halflive - Team Fortress allows spies to throw hallucination bombs.
This is not in response to stress though.

I suppose this is were the nanotechnology comes into play..

Well, you need an insulated room, and you need precise signal power measurements for every incoming and outgoing signal. Sounds like a lot of effort.
It is not like I could not see the NSA trying it out, but for every other institution your idea is just not how affordable electronics is handled.
robots should go to mars first, unfortunately bots can be quite dumb, so it might be a good idea to have someone there who has less than 16 hours reaction time to react quickly.

If, for example, it turns out that some people with decently well-off and very foresightful parents can live 50% longer than the rest of us?
Well, then at least someone will be able to live longer in contrast to nobody at all.And didn't it strike you as odd that the Queen of Britain died exactly around a round date? Who knows, maybe she is still around?

ideafutures trades in all kinds of predictions, albeit not in hard currency. You can probably find several global warming related claims there.
