You missed my point. It's no use calling wolf again and again. It'll just cause habituation. When the real deal comes, no one will rise to the oppose it.
A boat that size must keep a watch at all times. Also there's the small issue of the COLREGS, which aren't simple to follow even for humans. It's a serious safety issue. Obviously not for the unmanned boat, but for other vessels that may come in its way.
My keys seem to be missing. I can't find them anywhere! Could they be in a parallel universe? They could, but it's far more likely I'm just too stupid to figure out where they are.
[Steve Jobs] told [Larry Page and Sergey Brin] something to the effect of, "You have so many products spanning several services: Search, GMail, YouTube, Maps etc. – why not unite them all under a fluid user experience to both you and your users’ benefit?"
Page and Brin, struck with this epiphany, thought to themselves: "My God, how come we and our 30,000 highly-qualified employees never thought of this before!? This man is truly a genius!"
I've seen it as well, and I recommend seeing everything Rich Hickey on the web. He's incredibly insightful and a great presenter. However, if someone only watches one talk of his, I think the talk from Strange Loop would be the best. Second talk I'd recommend is Are We There Yet?
Rich Hickey's keynote talk from Strange Loop: Simple Made Easy. Unlike the posted fluff article, this talk is easily the most insightful talk you've seen this year, or your money back.
I went against my intuition and read TFA. The whole 4,200 words of it.
It's a complete fluff piece and doesn't contain any interesting new knowledge regarding human behavior or social networks, which you would expect from an "in depth" article about Facebook's data mining.
There are some tidbits regarding old stuff (4 degrees of freedoms between "friends"), obvious stuff (93% of friends met in real life), and a bunch of other vaguely presented stuff with questionable validity.
This is getting ridiculous. I know the lawyers are having fun and getting rich, but there's no way this system of intellectual property will hold for much longer.

Is it just me, or this story regarding UK internet censorship reappears here every few months? And it's always some sort of "consideration".
Why not post this when it's a concrete story, and not just a politician trying to gain some popularity using empty rhetoric?
Ignore the above. I wasn't paying enough attention.
Oh! You're right. I thought they are using the Cygnus DS25 which is 7.8 meters long, but they're using a model of the model.

Was it so hard to write "Silicon Valley Values Shift To Customer Exploitation"?
Never mind that - consider that this is the best we can do in 2012. How dumb are we all?
Why do we need hardware, in this case smartphones, to start a discussion about morality in computing? Think Facebook.
What's the point of linking to a paywalled article? I know we're not supposed to read the articles, but come on...
Nothing says irrelevant standard like having standardized multithreading support on year 2011.
This post is inflammatory on so many levels.
I'd have doubts if this statement came from almost any other CEO of a major company. But I believe Page.

So basically, this post is news that we'll have some news next week. Very informative. Thank you.

Often professional science is amateurish, but occasionally a professional scientist strikes gold.

I suggest we start tagging articles with no content as 'fluff'.
You sound like you need a tablet.

The TSA employs about 60,000 people. The number one thing that voters care about in the US is jobs.
The TSA will not be curtailed anytime soon.
