Some of the marketing crap my company produces is worse than the quotes generated in TFA....I wonder if I could make a business out of outsourcing our marketing team with this algorithm...I'll suggest to my boss and see what he says.

Easy.
Cornell physicists say they've codified why cars work, or more specifically, why car theories work – a meta-car-theory. Publishing online in the journal Science (abstract), the team has developed a unified driving framework they say exposes the hidden hierarchy of car theories by quantifying the degree to which predictions – like how a particular cellular battery might work under certain conditions, or how sound travels through the car's subwoofer – depend on the detailed variables of a model car.
I think the only way 4K or 3D will become standard is if Sony & Microsoft support 4K / 3D output for their gaming consoles. I suspect that lots of gamers would buy the enhanced TVs just to play games in 4K / 3D. TV manufacturers should try bribing Microsoft and Sony...
Great sets and effects. Writing isn't bad. Casting is definitely the weakest link...Uhura needs to be hotter, the captain needs to be manlier, and there's just something off about Spock and Bones. Scotty was not bad.
It will never be possible to "win" the privacy war until individuals are held responsible for violations of privacy. The Milgram Experiment shows that morality is engaged by a feeling of personal responsibility, and that morality is suppressed when personal responsibility is taken away.
My (crackpot) theory is that unless we start holding lawmakers, government officials, lobbyists, politicians, and even technologists personally accountable for creating and participating in illegal programs, nothing about this fight will ever change. A software engineer who writes code for the NSA will feel pretty safe because they can always blame their participation on "orders", on "the government", or any number of other abstract ideas. Nobody at any level of government ever feels personally responsible, and as a result, will never make the proper, moral decision to stop spying.
Call me crazy, but maybe it's time to establish a new set of laws?
I recall news stories from over a decade ago lamenting the fact that ConEd manhole covers were being used to charge dogs. Inadvertently, and sadly fatally, but this technology has been around for a while.
This is possibly the funniest post I have ever read on/.
Studies have found that kids with ADHD are much more likely to become addicted to video games. Does this count as an addiction to prescription medicine? Hmm....
Well, that makes the moon acre people obsolete. Why would anyone buy an acre of moon grit, when they could buy an acre of liquid diamonds for just 50% more?
The idea is up for grabs. Go for it. You're welcome, internet.
I'm pretty sure their ages (Higgs is 84 and Englert is 80) also factored in to the decision to recognize them this year. Since the Nobel prize comes with money attached, it's better to award them now, while they are able to appreciate it.
My grade 4 teacher was crazy about the original Doctor Who, he said that he watched it from the beginning and recorded every episode. He used to bring them in to class and we would watch them. Over the course of one year we must have seen at least 50 episodes, and they were all sequential. I wonder if he was lying about having the entire series on tape. Surely he would have said something.
Weird.
What you are seeing is the liberal's strategy for staying in power. Get as many people as possible dependent on the government. Then nobody dare oppose them or they will threaten to take away the government teat like what is happening right now. Obamacare is their attempt to get the majority of the population dependent on government for medical care. Imagine the power they will wield when they can threaten to shut down the government and take away your health care.
It's a lot more likely that you will get fired and lose your Medicare coverage, than it is for the government to turn tyrannical and stop providing health care funding.
I'm Canadian. Our public health care provides me with peace of mind. It's like employment insurance - you never know when you're going to need it. I'm 31 and probably won't need it for another 40 years, and yes, it's a waste of money until I do. But I wouldn't give it up for anything. There are a few advantages: first, there is no upper limit on how much treatment you get - whereas with insurance-based systems often you are only insured up to a certain amount. Second, there are no co-payments; getting sick won't bankrupt me. Third, I don't have to worry about paying for sick relatives - I know people in the USA who have lost everything paying for treatment for sick family members and friends.
Our health care system has some problems (e.g. long wait times in some areas, high cost), but I would take it over a private system any day.

Update: It didn't go over so well.

...now if it were Comic Sans, I would TOTALLY agree.
How about Wingdings?
I wonder if it will be able to make sense of goatse.
I wonder if it has Oculus Rift support?

Wait...Hugh Laurie isn't a real doctor? Way to spoil the series...I was only in season 3...
Is it under warranty?
Are you saying that this system is packed normally, and it is our solar system which is unusually loose?
Our solar system has been around ... if you know what I mean.
Where does all the money go that the government takes from seizures? I've always wondered.

So...where did the money go?

Jobs is already dead...
You sure? I think he might be chilling with Elvis on a ranch somewhere in Texas or Nevada.
Money aside, a Nobel *cannot* be award posthumously. It's one of the rules.
Good to know :)

The next step is to determine which genes caused Einstein's brain mutations, and artificially induce this mutation to create smarter babies...
