One advantage of nuclear power is that even after a catastrophe like this they can be restarted. Other power plants would've collapsed/been washed away, leaving Japan without power.
No, this is a simple learning process masquerading as "mind-melding". The important part is that both rats were trained: the first one to choose the right lever, and the second one was trained to act based on the electric stimuli of its brain. It's not different from having the first rat turn a lamp on for the second one. In fact, you can leave the first rat completely out of the equation, and the second one would act the same way. The second rat didn't know there was a first one and the first one didn't know there was a second one, they didn't communicate, this is just two learning experiments connected serially.
Most languages look like mathematical expressions the kids are already familiar with. As much as I like Lisp, it's pretty much the C++ of functional languages: very versatile and powerful, but I wouldn't give into the hands of a newbie.
How about making the car smaller and lighter, so that we could use the angular momentum of the two wheels for stabilisation without need for separate gyros. We could call it the motorbike or something.
Exactly, these numbers are only for recorded music. While CD sales are dropping, ticket sales soar. And as musicians get a bigger cut from live performances, everybody is happy except the middlemen who have been cut out and a thin elite of top musicians who hoped they could retire at the age of 30.
If somebody was attacking me with this persistence, I would consider using randomgenerated passwords that are written down in an encrypted file on my machine.
I know that most old people feel different, maybe I will too, but that's not really an argument in itself. I was thinking about the people who can't do much but vegetate for their last 10-20 years. Maybe we should embrace death with dignity rather than prolonging our lives artificially past the age when we can still take care of ourselves.
I agree, the medical field already gets far too much attention. We live in a world where we have beaten most diseases and already live longer than we should, yet we continue to pour more and more money into the medical business because of our base fear of death.
Declare space outside geostationary orbit a zone where private parties are not subject to international law, and let them fight it out. The only way mining will ever turn a profit is if it's automated so there will be no casualties, and it should be fun to watch.
If I understand it correctly, that's just the expected time, it might happen tomorrow, or it may have already happened (but the chances for those are very small).
While I understand that this removes the ability of a farmer to further breed the crop they've bought, I still prefer sterile GMOs to crosspollenation.
Conservative and liberal are valid ideologies outside of the US they just have a different meaning, which is not really left vs right. In fact, the antithesis of conservative is not liberal but progressive. Conservativism simply seeks to avoid fast changes and preserve the status quo. Which is why in a leftist society it incorporates quite a few leftist ideas, like modern English or German conservativism. Conservatives believe that society can't tolerate fast changes, and that every new thing we want to do should be adopted gradually in order to test it.
The EU isn't a free market, if Google wants to do business here (and apparently they do like some low-tax members) it has to obey EU laws. Consumer protection is a well established form of regulation. Now you are not forced to give Google your data, even if you use their services, as it's possible to opt out from tracking. This could probably have saved Google had they bothered to actually defend themselves.

Furthermore, free speech requires communication between consenting parties. Spam is not free speech.

The same reason normal printer cartridges are expensive.
They made a switch to publishing instead of creating their own games. In retrospect it looks like a good decision.
The end product may not be innovative, but the techniques that make it possible certainly are.

This is self-assembly, not self-replication. Think nitinol.

But we shouldn't wait until the autonomous drones arrive.

Keep legislation out of the net.

As long as the braces are implemented with a macro, that's not a problem.
Many times it's not the author being overenthusiastic but the media reports.

AFAIK the people behind Piratebay have escaped to avoid prison, how can they sue when they aren't there?
