What I mean is you're not moving and when you aren't moving you won't be breaching the light speed barrier. Think of it like this, space expands ftl. If it were effected by time travel than I think that we'd see some stranger stuff than a more/less orderly expansion.
This is an excerpt from the wikipedia page on "alcubierre drive".
"If this is so, conventional relativistic effects such as time dilation would not apply in the way they would in the case of a ship moving at a very great velocity through flat spacetime, relative to other objects. This method of propulsion would not involve objects in motion at speeds faster than light with respect to the contents of the warp-bubble; that is, a light beam within the warp-bubble would still always move faster than the ship."
But this isn't really talking about moving faster than the speed light. In fact, the actual space ship will be basically parked. It's the space around it that will be moving.
I think that a way to sum things up is if anybody applied themselves enough they can learn the mechanics of programing. However, a very important part of programing is problem solving. This is a natural ability that can be learned to a small extent but only so far. It's just like how a lot of people say that you have to be good at math to program. There's a lot of programing now days that don't involve much if any math but problem solving is central to both math and programing.
The way I see it is knowing and understanding how to program requires a certain way of thinking. An example of this would be the scientific method. Anybody can learn the steps but a lot less are able to make it a natural way of thinking.
That is until you can use a 3d printer that can make 3d printers. As for everything else, I think that it'll take a while for a general 3D printer to be able to accomplish what dedicated factories can do. Once you can print a car, it'll probably not be as efficient or as safe as a properly made car. I wouldn't be surprised if the government even tried to regulate such cars (goodluck to them).
Don't know if trolling or if knowledge of basic chemistry lacking. Gold is an element meaning the only way to create it is to do some atomic modification which is not included in this package of 3D printing.
There's a Myth Buster episode that someone referred to that showed that cellphones could interfere with airplane transmissions if the airplane isn't shielded properly. In my opinion it's completely bogus to not allow electronics in general during the whole flight. Especially since they're telling you to put away low powered devices that have no chance of creating interference. I'm just saying that the only remote possible thing that they could do is not allow cellphones during takeoff/landing and leave everything else alone. In the end they probably have some very stupid (non-safety reason) for not changing the policy.
Talk to a person who's been a bank teller for a time and I'm sure you'll hear about those kinds of people that banks have to protect them from their own idiocy.
That's why this study is a study of correlation, correlation does not imply causation. This means that they've found a connection between lowering of IQ and smoking pot, but they don't know if one side leads to the other.
In this case smoking pot could lower IQ, on the other hand other things that lower their IQ can lead them to smoke pot.
They're not talking about using cell phones, cells will most likely be banned anyways because the cell connection could interfere with the airplane's equipment. Of course this could be completely false and cell phones don't create the kind of interference that the industry has assumed it does.
tldr; Even if electronics in general are allowed all the time, radio transmission will probably not be.
My example is not as bad as your answer. I agree that it wasn't the best example but I wasn't really going for a perfect example. A tree type of search would find the name in less than 16 loops. This still wouldn't be faster than being able to find the answer right away.
A proper way to critique my post would have been giving a better example than the one that I provided, than you wouldn't have shown up looking like a troll/jerk.
The reason behind the interest behind quantum computers is they have the potential to be exponentially faster. Here's an example that I've read. You have to find a name in a phone book. A regular computer has to search through in a more linear maner. Like you are going from the first page and so on. A quantum computer's manner of getting the answer is based upon probability, what's the likelihood that you'll open the phone book to the right page. In other words, you skip the intermediate steps of searching.
I won't say that there aren't any ultrabooks out there with those ports, I'm just saying that even the rMBP is too thin for it. Searching around, I didn't find any ethernet ports that were less than 0.71 inches (1.8 cm). I didn't do much searching but the one I found was 2cm which means the ethernet standard can't go thin enough. I'll agree with you that this move is super annoying but, I'm also saying that I understand why it is. I use ethernet all the time btw. There's too many wifi routers in my apartment for it to be reliable.
I find that it's annoying that they got rid of the ethernet port but it's understandable. Have you seen how thin that thing is? Ethernet is too big for thin. In fact, with older mbp designes it barely fits.
False, from my experience with at least reseting a password through the itunes side, you are required to give 3 bits of information not counting your apple id. I don't know if it's different for icloud but I'm planning on checking soon.
Remote-wipe is a part of find my mac which includes remote wiping.
Just like what asdf7890 said, some people want the security option of wiping the data. I suppose that an option could be to remotely encrypt a drive. Btw, there is the option in apple's icloud to remotely lock a device with a passcode of your choice. Wiping it is just another option.
Having microtowers won't completely get rid of the need for actual towers. What happens when there's something like a blackout? There then needs to be some sort of battery backup system as well and I know that this would increase the cost quite a bit to have a decent battery backup. Especially since I believe that having a decent one is government mandated although I don't know if that would count towards microtowers.
While I agree that carriers are just dragging their butts to not upgrade their infrastructure, I can't say that in some ways they aren't in a difficult position (possibly, I don't really know the details). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_frequencies under the one showing what frequency each carrier has, it shows that each of the major carriers don't really have a lot of spectrum anyways (relatively with the demand they get). Even with this, I wouldn't be surprise if they're doing evil stuff anyways to make it seem like they're worse off than they really are.

I doubt that Google would move behind "The Great Firewall" btw, just a little side thing not to discount the point your making.

The reason it has pretty much never been enforced is because it's difficult to impossible to prove that someone knowingly did wrong in this case.

I wouldn't discount the humble bundle way. Just because people pirate it doesn't mean it's a failed business model.
Mixture of acids that can eat through gold? That's commonplace in our world today. Another name for it is women.

I can see the possibility of not being able to add a card over the internet for whatever reason.

But not investing in infrastructure is short sighted.
No no no, we're talking about a spacesuit here. :P
Bill Gates was talking about RAM not bandwidth (if it was him) either way the saying does kindof apply.
