...is that, chances are, these technologies will be developed anyway, and they will be developed to solve the problem directly at hand, thus making the research effort cheaper and the results better.
I mean, so space exploration is going to solve the education problems in the third world? Are farmer boys from africa going to sit at a videoconference lecture held by a professor from Harvard? Give me a break.
I have no problems with space exploration, but why is it that when it comes to space, there is always a lot of blind dreaming going on?
Just because space is more entertaining than say, cancer research, it doesn't make it more important.
And by the way, we have plenty of time for space exploration before the odd meteor hits or the sun explodes..
Everyone with half a brain realized this years ago, no matter how many hype articles there was in the media. Micropayments is great for companies, and a pain in the ass for consumers..
e-cash? Shut up. We got credit cards, paypal and we dont want more accounts and stuff to keep track of.
HARRIS: Worse than that. Because, you see, a modem is always two way. If you can pull the information in, you can also push it back through the pipeline the other direction. So that means if they can pull the information in, they can also send information back into those machines.
Sounds too simplistic too me. So, because I have a "modem", I can always edit the information on sites like perhaps Microsoft.com? Not really true.
Why would they keep score of the voting on an internet server anyway? Keep it offline and let officials phone in the results, I'd say.
I have removed *both* white spaces...and it just says it's the wrong link..I've tried both Mozilla and IE, to make sure there was no caching involved..

Every good university has the same thing. This initiative has been talked about so much that I thought MIT would do something really special.
Have you browsed through the classes on their site?
There are just some pdf files there. No listing of the books used, or what you are required to read in them for each class. No forums, no timetable, no nothing.
I mean, it is still great and all, but hardly something that's unique to MIT, or something that works as a course for someone on the outside. All they did was publish the handouts for the students already enrolled.

Yea, I'm also doing extensive research via p2p applications. Can I please get some RIAA funding?
Like I said, wild dreaming :)

Spoken like a true ignorant rightie.
Blaming the MS monopoly or other monopolies for that matter (in Sweden there is a sugar monopoly) on the state, is so dumb my eyes hurt.

Hey Darl! How about I give you the finger...and you show me the code?
I love sci-fi fantasy, where you have a completely different universe with some sci-fi and some fantasy aspects (i.e. magic).
Dune fits into this, as does Star Wars..
There are other great books as well, although I can't really remember their names.
Any tips?

Maybe, it's just a good way to avoid profit.

You're right, it is awful.
This is just hype ppl.

YOU ARE A HUGE NERD!

He is not dead is he?
He was buzy doing lots of projects last time he was interviewed here..
That's always how I've interpreted it!
42 = Four,Two = For two!
Doing stuff in twos is more fun than doing stuff alone.
The most basic piece of information consists of two different signals: Yes and No.
Also, all (well, nearly all) life comes out of two partners mating.
4 2 is truly the answer to everything...
This is the reason I really don't like MS at all.
Only a monopoly that has nothing to worry about can get away with screwing the results like this and still come out winning.
If you read the article, it is obvious the linux guys are saying "even if it is 1 million lines", not SCO.
Seems nobody reads the article anymore. Sheesh.
