If patient identifiable healthcare information is being transmitted in a way that allows exposure, it's a HIPPA violation. Even if the Hospital enters an Agreement with Samsung, the data is traversing the net which allows exposure unless the stream is AES256 encrypted; and I really doubt that's the case. HIPPA concerns were a big part of the Flint Water Débâcle, it turned the sharing of data between researchers from a matter of hours to months; agreements had to be sent, cleared by legal signed and returned, wash rinse repeat.
slashdot is more about never edited, your comments and posts are yours, slashdot just provides a platform for you to make a fool out of yourself. I think some of the problem is the Freind/Foe system; makes it too easy to moderate based on the person rather than the comments made or mod-stalking.
Einstein was loser. If he was so smart, why wasn't he rich?
Because we didn't have the technology to take proper advantage to what he discover until about a century after he discovered it, imagine if he had gotten a royalty for every solar cell or led ever made.
Hey ease up, After you've changed the way we understand the whole universe 3 times (Quantum Mechanics, General Relativity and Special Relativity) it's pretty hard to come up with some new shit. Hell even he knew he had hit the wall, that's why he was working on TOE, The Theory of Everything, because he knew a young buck would blow his wad, where he could coast along on his reputation even while chasing unicorn farts. Only old codgers can serve science by finding what doesn't work, without destroying their careers.
Isn't Zuckerburg supposedly give the annual GNP of an embarrassing number of countries away to charity? I'm not sure how motivated by money facebook is anymore.
Well what happens if Facebook decides to decline doing business with the French citizens and France?
As far as US law being applied everywhere, perhaps your politicians have signed a treaty you're not aware of, and and would rather have you blame the US for extra-territorial enforcement than except responsibility for negotiating a treaty that may not reflect your view of what your best interests are.
Politicians are sneaky weasels, you have to keep a microscope up their ass or they'll do things you don't like.
Go to IPCC 5th Assessment report, chapter 9, page 28, graph (a) Observed and CHIMP5 Simulated Global Mean Surface Air Temperature, you'll see that there is at least a.3C difference between the CHIMP5 model mean and HADCrut4 and GISTEMP. Most consider the period of 1951 to 1980 to be the global average temperature baseline which has a value of 14 degrees Celsius and 2015 has warmed a supposed 0.98C that gives 0.3/0.98*100= 30.6% error!
I have problems excepting a 30% errors as predictive value
Not really to knock out a Minuteman III silo 50% of the time you'd have to detonate a 50KT warhead within 100 m of the silo, which at re-entry vehicle speeds takes some pretty fancy shooting. You can't group your shots too close together or the neutrons from one device will pre-initiate it's neighbours. Those mushroom clouds are full of crap, a re-entry vehicle can't fly through one without being destroyed but a slower launch vehicle can fly through. A nuclear war is a bit more involved than you'd think.
Comms would go down, Electric distribution would be knocked out, possibly for years. Replacement transformer of the sub-station size have to be built, you can't keep too many pieces of equipment the size of a house in the warehouse.
I don't know the mass, but I have heard that once a cannon has fired a nuclear round it's done, unserviceable, the amount of charge required to get the round down range enlarges the bore and over-stresses the metal.
A ground burst, which includes a burst close enough to the ground for the fire-ball to touch the ground, draws up a metric-boatload of soil to neutron-activate and mix with radioactive un-fissioned fuel, depleted U234 reflectors and daughter nucleotides. That mess makes a lot of really dirty fallout. Even a nuclear weapon that fails to initiate makes a hell of a mess when the detonaters blow it to hell and back.
If you use a shared computer then they are making the details of one user available to other users and this strikes me as something that they should be expected to make clear to users.
To me sharing a used user account on a computer is like sharing a used condom.
Sadly he's probably correct, divide the globe into 5 degree cells, run a hundred calculations on each cell for a half hour time slice, keep going for a 30 year simulation and the round-off error alone would make the results less reliable than a one line simple model. Monckton et. al. said pretty much the same thing.
I have to tell you I'm suspicious of the Columbia temp chart, I think somebody has adjusted the hell out of the 1930's, probably hiding the decline there.
If it's settled that human-emitted carbon is warming up our climate that might mean fewer jobs for climatologists, but it will mean a lot more jobs for reactor builders and people who can assemble and pilot supertanker loads of iron dust.
If the global were actually warming and the warming was caused by anthropogenic CO2 then ocean fertilization by supertanker loads of iron dust would logically reduce or eliminate the warming, that's why Ocean Fertilization is illegal; only methods that are ineffective and cause massive human suffering are allowed.
A) How much of the change is likely to be caused by which of the several known factors, and potentially unknown factors?
You will never find out with the present crew of Climatologists, everybody wants a mention in the big game, an IPCC Assessment Report, and the IPCC's mission is to access anthropologically caused global change through CO2 release anything else is outside their purview.
I guess that just goes to show you that if your prediction is supported by observational confirmation, you tend to keep your job. if you predict sea levels are going to rise by meters and it rises by millimeters, you tend to ask people "Do you want fries with that?'

Perhaps Lockheed Martin has a Samsung TV in the break room, this would explain a few things.
Now imagine Samsung Smart TV's in patient's room in a hospital with HIPPA violations going for $50K per violation.
If you're not wrong sometimes, you're never sure you were correct all of the times you could have been.
If he freaked about God playing Dice, can you imagine his reaction to Feigenbaum's constants; it was kind of like knowing how many sides the die had.
If I had mod points that would be +1 funny

They are as bad as economic models, because they show scenarios based on CO2 emission estimates, which are tied to economic activity.

You just know your on shake statistical ground when you send out over 3,000 surveys , then claim 85 out of 87 constitutes a 97% agreement.
Are you implying the science isn't settled, what's to develop?
