If neutrinos were faster than c, the neutrinos from SN1987A would have arrived "five years sooner," while they were measured arriving "3 hours before the dying star's light caught up" as expected...
Yes it is. However, in the present case they reuse *existing* data. Requires a lot of processing, but this is not an artifice, they really use computing power to first determine the camera movement, and from this information, they can re-compute each pixel by removing as much as they can the blur resulting from the camera movement, which gives much better results than using a straightforward generic edge enhancement.
I'm subscribed and read science magazines/books, and the topics/articles I enjoy the most are the ones at the edge of human knowledge, those unlikely to have any commercial values. Have you been drinking grapefruit juice again?
There has been many nice headlines over the months (years) about such and such new advances in battery technology. Surely it's nice, but now I am becoming jaded with such articles. Here is what I want now: "New AAA batteries lasting twice as long as those currently sold reach the market// blah blah... as measured by independent testing... blah blah"
Funny you say that, I've always felt it was rather MS who hated me tremendously (hence I stopped nurturing MS's hate toward me by keeping a healthy distance between me and its stuff, through which it was expressing its hate toward me)
I like Javascript, it allowed me to code without having to install big fancy development platform. Given how widespread it has become, I fail to see how killing it make any sense. I don't care about dogma, I care about reality.
Very soon when after the article came out, I searched "on the internet" to see if I could find that file, and I couldn't. The article mentioned the name of the file, "all-cables.csv", the size 1.73 GB, etc. No matter what I tried, the only hits I got fit in one page of results, which listed Der Freitag obviously, and a few blogs and message boards which were already referencing Der Freitag. The only file which contains all the cables freely available out there is the one from the Guardian, but only the date, origin and the tags are listed.
No different? Right... the speculated "corruption" of an organization dedicated to publishing information which results in better informed citizens, compared with the documented corruption of an organization dedicated to waging wars which results in dead people, including dead innocent people, by the thousands.
Der Freitag is associated with Daniel Domscheit-Berg (DDB) and the OpenLeaks project. I find it curious that Der Freitag "discovered the file on the internet" right when DDB has been making an ass of himself by deleting thousands of documents leaked by whistleblowers, and at a notable point of his campaign to discredit Wikileaks.
Yep, Earth has had enough. This week is just the first audible sound emitted from the first 'F' of 'FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...'
Do you think suicide bombers have an intention of getting caught?
Oh you! "Caught" as in "put oneself in harm's way". Hackers I am sure want to stay out of harm. Also, I see hackers who release creepy government or corporate secrets as working toward a freer society, where free flow of information is a requirement. I just can't see blowing random people and stuff as having such a higher purpose, and less so when it is done in the name of some dogmas with built-in censorship. So associating hackers with suicide bombers doesn't ring well to me. I even find the attempt at association a bit suspicious.
The "retarded" part is because a so-called supporter of whistle-blowers destroys materials released by whistle-blowers. Awesome PR move there. Now whether he is working for the CIA, we can only speculate ad vitam æternam without being more enlightened in the end. I can as well speculate that he got paid by Bank of America to lose the material, but losing all the leaks was necessary to not put BoA in the spotlight. Etc. ad vitam æternam.
I lose track of how strapping dynamite sticks around your torso to kill people and blow up stuff is the same as anonymously (i.e. NO intention of being caught I'm sure) and giddily hacking into a web site and releasing information -- which might or might not be of public interest.
his whole OpenLeaks model is designed to keep as much heat away as possible from the website operator, who’s little more than a go-between between the leaker and the media. Domscheit-Berg isn’t even likely to get a threatening letter from someone’s attorney.... Dickhead or not, at least Assange can deal with pressure. He’d rather go fugitive, sleep rough and live on his wits than surrender his servers. This is the guy I’d trust in a guerrilla war campaign, the old “inflict-and-endure.”
Remember, Wikileaks has successfully battled in court before to ensure the leaked materials on its site would remain published.

When you read that sort of text, replace "idea" with "revenue source" and it all make sense.
Ah silly me, I had this idea that when they dismiss a candidate they don't give them the real reason.
Tom Cruise is a porn actor?
And maybe her age shows (she should sue whoever enacted the law of entropy.)
Not Asia Carrera, too smart.
"Low" relative to what?

Interpolated missing data is still just a fiction

which have an irrational hatred of anything MS

Let's throw out everything in the world which has become something it was never envisioned to be.

I wished they elaborated on this vague -- yet key part of the story -- "discovered on the internet".

Asked for a statement, China's People's Liberation Army spokesperson said:
"We do it for the lulz"
They could just as well have celebrated the statistical fluctuation. Gee, these physicists really don't know how to party.

This one too, http://exiledonline.com/inside-wikileaks-revenge-of-the-second-banana/, a few months old, but enlightening in retrospect, great insights (I hadn't see this one before yesterday):
his whole OpenLeaks model is designed to keep as much heat away as possible from the website operator, who’s little more than a go-between between the leaker and the media. Domscheit-Berg isn’t even likely to get a threatening letter from someone’s attorney. ... Dickhead or not, at least Assange can deal with pressure.
