Alternatively, you could say that Lego is a mass word (like water, wood, or platinum). In NZ, I'm used to us talking about having 'Lego' to do stuff with. If you're wanting to refer to individual pieces, it's a Lego block, Lego brick, or Lego piece (or 'n blocks of Lego').
Wikipedia uses the word 'Lego', with the only mention of 'Legos' in the article coming from just one of the many references: here.
only five year olds and americans call them "legos".
However, that discussion also points out that there have been trademark dilution concerns by the company regarding the use of 'Legos' instead of their preferred 'Lego', suggesting that the prevalence of that use is higher that what I've experienced in little old New Zealand.

Based on the user ID (a fairly good indicator of/. age, especially at the magnitude of difference between you and him), I'd probably say that he's just had a really long vacation. I would say that... except that doesn't agree with his posting history. Maybe he just has amnesia.
Okay, I'll take you up on that... here's some code that takes in a vector of genotypes (as a factor with levels AA,AC,CC,XX), and a matrix of columns to be used for different bootstraps, and spits out a list of genotype counts for those bootstraps:
## matmap -- maps a vector onto a matrix of indexes to the vector ## (a hack to get round something that R doesn't seem to do by default) matmap <- function(vector.in, matrix.indices){
res <- vector.in[matrix.indices];
if(is.null(dim(matrix.indices))){
dim(res) <- c(length(matrix.indices),1);
} else {
dim(res) <- dim(matrix.indices);
}
return(res); } ## generate table based on genotype frequencies GTcounts <- function(in.genotypes, columns.pop){
gt.table <- apply(matmap(in.genotypes,columns.pop),2,tabulate, nbins = 4);
rownames(gt.table) <- levels(in.genotypes);
return(gt.table); }
Out of the [imperative] languages I know, only octave/matlab have a chance out doing better than that in terms of lines of code. And when you're writing code, being able to avoid duplication and mindless for loops is a really useful feature.
reminds me of the Thinkpad Hard Disk Active Protection System (accelerometers near the hard drive) which had a linux driver that allowed it to be used as a joystick. Quite fun for playing neverball...
I'm somewhat interested in why you'd choose to spend several hundred dollars for an application that you'd use a few hours per year when there's a somewhat equivalent FOSS program, Inkscape. The "few hours" bit suggests that you may be more willing to let slide a few of the differences, particularly if this is a program that you've only recently purchased.
Are there any features that AI has that are a "must have" for you?
There are a few computer games that I have played that have notification systems. They are usually somewhat unobtrusive, give some indication that an event has happened, but don't show you the message or event until you interact with them.
One in particular that I'm thinking of is Theme Hospital, where a little icon would pop up at the bottom of the screen and slide across, waiting for you to click on it to see the message (and deal with the situation as necessary). Once the event was dealt with (sometimes even without your interaction), the icon would disappear. There were different icons for information / decisions / visits, which made it easier to prioritise your management of the notifications.
Other ones I can think of were "goal/achievement reached" notifications (different game). You'd know something had happened, but not what it was until clicking on the message area of the screen.

emacs, latex, auctex, flyspell -- wonderful combination. Oh, and you'll probably want git/svn for revision control (as suggested previously). There's also a latexdiff program floating around that can put changebars into your output file.
Flyspell allows you to have the wavy line spellchecker functionality that is fairly common now. It distinguishes between non-dictionary words that appear only once and non-dictionary words that appear more than once.
No makefile is necessary if you're using auctex. It's just C-c c for latex, bibtex, latex, latex, (pre)view.
The makeidx package allows you to create indexes (e.g. \index{ancestry!genomic}).
Yes, it's a learning curve, and the best way to start with emacs/latex is to work off some already written latex files, but the results that come out the other end are worth that effort.

One of the disadvantages of Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD, which is what they used here) is that it requires implantation of a screened egg. That means all the lovely things that go with IVF [fertility] treatment -- drugs to synchronise your period with something a bit more predictable, in-vitro fertilisation, multiple embryos, and a few blood tests along the way.
If you want to make babies the usual way (i.e. by having sex), then you can't use this technique to screen for less desirable traits.
It's difficult to encrypt behaviour. If you don't know who a particular user is via direct tracing methods, you can make a fairly good guess based on their activities.

With multi-core processors becoming more and more prevalent, R's developers should remedy this as soon as possible.
Already done. There's an R package called SNOW that allows you to handle code running in parallel.

If you're changing your original goals (I'm thinking particularly about Sugar here) mid-way through, you'll crash faster.

Yeah, that question would be good at stopping piracy:
Is this software pirated?
a. Yes.
b. I'm not talking.
c. No. (How could you even ask!)
d. No, just borrowed.
Correct answer: c.
