No, all that'll do is move the lobbyists to influence the state legislatures again.
Should be 'Academics hypothesize better tor client', since all they're giving out is their analysis and not sourcecode there's no way to verify their claims.
At 7KWh, the battery really wont do anything except for the occassional brown/blackout and really how often does that last. if you dont have solar, there's absolute no point in getting one of these. And if you do have solar it'll just make the payoff slightly better. It'll still take you 3-5 years to pay off the powerwall for little to no gain.

This. Pretty much every prescription the doctor writes effectively goes straight to the drug reps. If you stop prescribing, they'll know, and come in and bribe^H^H^H^Hinquire as to why you stopped prescribing their drug.
Maybe he shoulda talked to the people he bought the house from instead of level 1 sales drone. Hell, even looking at the house he should have seen if there was coax in place or not.
It is easy to explain the results: In high-level languages such as Java and Python, a seemingly benign statement such as concatString += addString may actually involve executing many extra cycles behind the scenes. To concatenate two strings in a language such as C, if there is not enough space to expand the concatString to the size it needs to be to hold the additional bytes from addString, then the developer has to explicitly allocate new space with enough storage for the sum of the sizes of the two strings and copy concatString to the new location, and then finally perform the concatenation. In Java and Python strings are immutable, and any assignment will result in the creation of a new object and possibly copy operations, hence the overhead of the string operations. The disk-only code, although apparently writing to the disk excessively, is only triggering an actual write when operating system buffers are full. In other words, the operating system already lessons disk access times. A developer familiar with the language and system internals readily notices the causes of this observed behaviour, but this behaviour may be easily missed, as indicated by examining similar cases in production code.
There's some beefy laptops out there, but if you're doing data analysis and simulations you're going to have to be plugged in 24/7. At that point you lose the main benefit of a laptop while still losing in the performance department.

We wont say, because if we do, we'll look bad.

Escape from Tomorrowland != Tomorrowland w/ George Clooney
The former was filmed on Disney property guerrilla-style.

Because in the vast supermajority of cases, it always comes back to operator error.

Yeah. He's new here. /pre-emptive UID-off.

Not yet they aren't.

QuakeCon's Bring Your Own Computer area can reach 2500+. 170 is nothing.
Still trying to say you're not a taxi service at this point is getting pretty ridiculous.
io9 is a Gawker blog. You shouldn't even have to click through to the site to know it's going to be shit.

That's a pretty broad exclusion to be enforceable.

That's their entire point.
THATS THE ENTIRE POINT OF THIS PAPER.

If it's that critical, it's not going to come from amazon. You'll have a service provider on call.
