  1. Re:mathematica? on Wolfram Language Demo Impresses · · Score: 1

    Oh dear A/C, what is a sewer other than a larger pipe? I only ask what is "Fundamental" about Mathmatica, and what makes the Fundamentals of Mathmatica, Fundamental?

  2. Consider Examples from CraigsList? on Wolfram Language Demo Impresses · · Score: 1

    SEO, Web Based LAMP Editing? I haven't gotten to many requests for Traveling Salesman problems. I did get a request, once, to create a childs soccer banner with various shapes though.

    Mathmatica is a great product, and when I apply it to Ma and Pa's eCommerce web site and Ma and Pa have no idea what they're doing, so they manage by a economic system from the 1960's. I would use Mathmatica for what again?

    I'm not joking, this came from CraigsList, "...do a complete redesign (SEO correct) EXPERIENCED with food photography and capable of the following: Shopify template & SEO experience. Google add-word fluent. Ability to write product descriptions & general web content, hourly pay start at $15 hour." I'll site the reference if asked. Ok 'Wolf, how is buying and using your product going to deal with this? I'd love to see the code' It would take say, 6, maybe 7 lines?

    Where do you work? Usually, "move on" means get a new job.

  5. Re:mathematica? on Wolfram Language Demo Impresses · · Score: 1

    My client, hires 3 part timers, and thinks the problems General Electric faces are the same as his. My client also thinks Fox News; is. My task, put up an eCommerce site with something like Wordpress, interfaced to Paypal, and Authorize dot net. On a LAMP system. NO, I am not a shill for these products. Mathmatica can do this? In for lines? Then great, I'm on board.

  6. Re:I am going to disagree. on Woman Attacked In San Francisco Bar For Wearing Google Glass · · Score: 1

    Maybe the geniuses as google would consider a different design; or a crash helmet attachement?

  7. Re:robotic slave worshippers on Apocalypse NAO: College Studies the Theological Ramifications of Robotics · · Score: 1

    I think the evaluation of Asimov's 3 Laws would be a worth while major. God help us all.

  8. Re:Change on "Microsoft Killed My Pappy" · · Score: 1

    Sins? It goes beyond that. But the jr. bush ain't around to let obese business do what ever. Would Hanselman like some cheese with his wine?

  9. Re:Burn the Uranium in safe Thorium reactors... on How About a Megatons To Megawatts Program For US Nuclear Weapons? · · Score: 1

    Radioactivity? I don't think there is any other method other than to pile a bunch of Boron on top of it.

  10. These are Very Educated Minds Making Decisions on UAE Clerics' Fatwa Forbids Muslims From Traveling To Mars · · Score: 1

    Have these very same people considered that those who "go down to the sea in ships" may be successful? And at some point in time decide NOT to come back?

  11. Re: Well for once I agree with religious crazies on UAE Clerics' Fatwa Forbids Muslims From Traveling To Mars · · Score: 1

    Does it make sense to only send enough supplies to feed people that are going to mars, only to have them fend for themselves once they get there? Wouldn't a prototype base be easier to create on the moon? Then send a group to mars?

  12. Re:Burn the Uranium in safe Thorium reactors... on How About a Megatons To Megawatts Program For US Nuclear Weapons? · · Score: 0

    This is great news. But has anyone considered what it would take to clean up this mess?

  13. Just So I'm On the Same Page as Everybody Else on Why Your Online Impersonation of a 16-year Old Girl Won't Last Long · · Score: 1

    What's my motovation to hide as a 16 year old girl?

  14. How About Addressing USB Based Monitor? on Ubuntu 14.04 Brings Back Menus In Application Windows · · Score: 1

    That would be nice.

  15. "Ikarus?" Really? on Sochi Drones Are Shooting the Olympics, Not Terrorists · · Score: 1

    I hope they don't build one called "Challenger."

  16. Re:Fly fishermen have used this property for years on Fishing Line As Artificial "Muscle" · · Score: 1

    So you would place humanities needs before the needs of Intellectual Property Lawyers?

  17. Re:Could we be so lucky? on FCC Planning Rule Changes To Restore US Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    As good as censorship on the bad guys sounds; what if those souless fools are correct? Censorship means we'll never know; for certain.

  18. Re:Makes no sense. on Ask Slashdot: Anti-Camera Device For Use In a Small Bus? · · Score: 1

    Maybe if Howard Stern was invited?

  19. Re:metric, motherfuckers on Up-Front Seats For Tonight's Near-Earth Asteroid · · Score: 1

    They're using Metric? Then they really don't know how long it is.

  20. A Case for the Moon? on Astronomers Make the Science Case For a Mission To Neptune and Uranus · · Score: 0

    Why wouldn't putting a self sustaining outpost on the moon be more worthy? Our knowledge of how to survive in space would increase exponetially.

  21. Re:So on Report: Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) Scans Your DNS History · · Score: 1

    Wire Tapping is Wire Tapping. One cannot help but wonder what the browsing histories of Valve board of directors, and its Legal Staff?

  22. The "Fat Man?!" on Ask "The Fat Man" George Sanger About Music and Computer Games · · Score: 1

    Sydney Greenstreet would enjoy having you at his business.

    Peter Lorre could also assist with customer relations?

  23. Re:I would.. on What Would You Do With the World's Most Powerful Laser? · · Score: 1

    There a lots a things you could do with this laser. With this, I could make a lot of bank selling POPCORN at the Star Wars Movies. Start a trophy etching business, etch glassware.

    I would set up my lab somewhere in Prairie Chapel, Texas. That way if anything goes wrong, only history would tell.

  24. Re:show the proof! on NASA Knows How Mars Got a Jelly Doughnut · · Score: 1

    How much would the rock have to weigh given the distance the rock was thrown? Also, there might be an image of before the rock was thrown. Knowing this would help with going over areas of questionable terrain. Going into "soft" areas will be problematic for the rover. Something for the next Mars Rover would be some way to "hover" over to the next spot. When the wind is favorable.

  25. Re:Not from the car? on Tesla Model S Caught Fire While Parked and Unplugged · · Score: 1

    How was the fire started? I'm thinking pissed of neighbor.
