the closer you get to measuring a small event, the more the attempt to measure it gets in the way.
also called the "uncertainty principle."
there is a good chance that all these differing microerrors in all sorts of differing directions are different diffractions through inteference in what we can observe, thus proving the heisenberg principle has raised its ugly head again.
aka don't sweat it until you get a couple thousand indicators in the same direction. just like this week's surprise medical discovery that pesticides cure cancer, or coffee cures cancer, or coffee cures pesticides, or whatever bogus wrong-way publication made it into print on one limited study. the last line of those articles always reads, "The findings suggest that further studies in the field should be undertaken," which is code for "The previous article was written to get more grant money, send to PO Box 666, Unterderlinden, NJ."
the alleged content is totally age-inappropriate and should not be in the consumer package. they can put all the hacksmut they want on the development server hidden deep in the bowels of the office, but if any of it gets out on releases, it should be declared.
the way to settle this for ever is the ratings outfits to actually review the stuff they shuffle papers over, and employ a few of the 1337 to search for easter eggs... or in this case, perhaps, easter pornos... and if any are found, the product will remain unrated forevermore.
which keeps it out of the mass merchandisers' hands.
oops, almost forgot... the "ratings outfits" are shills and fronts that nod their head and say, yes, everything is wholesome family entertainment, don't bother us any more.
AOhell got its name somehow, right? these tales go all the way back to Quantum Online running on the non-windows DOS graphical OS.
and they're all true.
It took me 10 minutes to get them to finally realize that with DSL, five years ago, I didn't want them any more. and I was lucky to be immediately dropped, perhaps because I used Quantum Online back in the v1.1 era.
ballmer's big problem is he is inflicted with IP disease... he thinks MS owns all of its code, PLUS all of the data and programs folks put on their computers.
and he needs a cure or he needs to leave, cash in his options, and disappear to a tropical island someplace under a volcano. like seeks like.
among others, this was the big "gotcha" that got the U of U folks wondering about their so-called cold fusion scientists. turns out they would only work with the cold fusion institute mandated by salivating legislators if the institute bought a particular model of power supply... which was only marketed in the US by the son of one of the chief researchers.
and the funny thing is, they were voltage-limited supplies, they would all have to be rewired into current-limiting units on receipt by the father.
at that point, everybody's eyes were opened in all corners.
it's a classic scam, buy it from yourself at market-high prices. it's so old, even green kids from journalism school know to look for that trick.
buy the third-place loser in a market of low margins, self-appointed culture police chasing around the fringes, and fritter away money in a business that is a competitor to their macs? it would take horse-sized dumb pills for apple to buy nintendo. some idiot arb or other wall street weasel must have started that rumor hoping to cash out their stocks.
and they can't deny it. they do everything they can to try and focus attention away from their utter and total failure in every possible direction, every possible measurement. and. it. isn't. working.
the 6x7 camera guys used to brag about their advantage, the second objective lens on the rolleiflex and its workalikes that projected a nice big image onto a groundglass finder screen. you could get a sports finder for some SLRs like the nikon f, canon f, and mamiya rb67 for about the cost of a 6 megapixel digital slr.
one of dvorak's issues is that he doesn't research prior art before writing. should become a patent examiner;)

glub, glub. one move will improve Intel's profitability immensely. HP needs Itanic, they can buy their people back.
and this is the government we're trusting for our retirement, security, and protection from scourges like bird flu?
vote out ALL incumbents this November. all of them. and let's change all the priorities completely.
may be the only way to keep a budget.

somebody send a truckload of the stuff to washington

if nintendo lets their wii out early.....
for instance... "clippy detects you want to make a left turn. do you need help?"
CrAsH!!!
the foam has always been the problem on the shuttle.
scrape it all off and keep the tank pressurized like in the old days for the remaining flights.
that'll teach those offshore pirates!
some of these parochial old twits should really get out of the club more often, look around, and see the hansom cabs have been replaced by buses.
the best thing you can say about some congresscritters is that they STAY bought.
I'm sure there's some other fine quality somebody can bring up about ol' Ted, I think he used to be a fair fisherman years ago.
contest? anybody have anything else?
"vodka and orange juice," indeed! that's the control group for using a ham radio in contact with borneo while driving.
;)
cell phone drivers' control group should be beer drinkers.
I sorta got to prefer mai tais a year ago, I hate to think what study that would put me into
where one of the judges recently got tagged and is under trial for meddling with a penis pump during trial of actual cases at the bench.
he may not know pornography, but he'll know what he likes.

sorry. my bad.
or perhaps Micyahoo!
:-D
anyway, it would get a whole bunch of yahoos! in one place
which is why they strongly badger you for one of those numbers.

one of the best trades of all time.
after all, we all need care. we can buy into dot-net or not.
surprised MS has not taken the obvious steps.
1) turn the machine off
2) lock it in a safe.
3) destroy the code to open the safe.
4) fill safe with concrete.
any machine that is powered and accessible through a user device can be compromised.

every one of them. content CREATORS own the content. content LESSORS HAVE RIGHTS.
unless you're out to outlaw rights, and this is the start of it.....
