As you pointed out, there are many more English articles than Spanish. Simply translating some good quality English article into Spanish articles would be useful to the site. Upper level Spanish students should be able to do a better job than automatic translators. Comparing their results to what Babelfish or some other translator site puts out would show them how much is "lost in translation" without human intervention.
Was it the same cell or group of cells in all of the monkeys, or was it different cells or groups of cells in different monkeys that registered the numbers.
Hardwired implies that it is specific cells that should be the same in all of the monkeys.
If you selectively destroyed all the cells that respond to a digit, say 5. Is the monkey then no longer able to respond to 5 as a stimulus, or would other cells "relearn" the meaning of 5? Is such "relearning" possible if the knowledge was truly hardwired?
The technical corollary to this is that Systems/Network admins should always carry a piece of fiber in their pocket. That way if they ever get lost, all they have to do is bury the fiber and wait until the backhoe operator arrives to cut it and ask for directions.
You insensitive clod! You can not imagine how often I find myself stuck by trains. And they just run on simple tracks. I mostly worked in the machine/computer room of my last employer. Only as a last last resort was I ever sent into the field. And then, they always figured I would spend at least 30 minutes waiting for a train.
I once got stopped by a man waiving a flag at a train crossing that said it was decommissioned. The guy told me this was the first train that had run on this set of tracks in several years!
That last thing I need or want is trains coming at me from the sky!
Sure we can do that, but first you need to tell us more about this horrible rumor about this evil daystar that burns us vamp... I mean us technical type folk who dare venture out in the daytime.
I often wonder what form modern computing would be in today if the personal computer had not been so wide accepted. Look around you at the walls. Some of the things you see are very ubiquitous. People take electrical outlets and phone jacks for granted. It is just part of the infrastructure we are used to. Now imagine a computer port next to all the rest. All you need is simple input(keyboard,mouse) and simple output(monitor,printer) devices attached to an adapter that plugs into this outlet. That is all you would need to know about computing. Computing power would be offered by a "Computer Utility" company. They would handle all the technical details. You simply pay your bill and the "technical goodness" comes down the line.
Sure, you certainly pay thru the nose for your time slices of CPU power. But to those of us fortunate to be "Computer Wizards" who live and work at the Computer Utility, life would be grand!
Too many people know the workings of the current Internet. This is like Walmart and product placement on shelves. Once too many people know where the stuff they really want is, they can go directly there and get it without browsing all the isles looking for it and ending up with extra stuff as well. Too many people know about the Internet as it currently exists, time to redo the shelves on the Internet and force people to start wandering thru it again, looking for what was where it should be yesterday.
From reading the summary, I don't believe this book tells you at all how to make money. I expect ink, green and the new multi-colors, to be all over my fingers by the end of it.
I often dream of winning the lottery. Then I can spend the majority of the time learning what to do with the money. Another, almost perhaps, equal grind as my current day job.
You have a similar argument as my wife. We were lying in bed, and she asked me to snuggle. Next thing you know, I am holding my nose and wondering if I am bleeding or not!
Apparently I "nose-butted" her elbow, entirely my fault!
I remember the box of my Super NES game, Street Fighter 2 Turbo bragging about it's awesome AI that kept you from "cheesing" your way thru the game.
If that was true, why did they put Guile in there... talk about Cheesy!
The computer "knows" too much. It is hard to find the middle ground to simulates luck element a player has. My brother could own me in Unreal Tournament in big open maps. Put us in a close quarters map, and more often than not I would walk up right behind him by sheer luck. Of course my lucks balances, can't count the number of times I "missed" at point blank range with a flak cannon.
Either roll your own or wait. If you are lucky, someone will rob Linus Torvalds of his laptop, all production on the kernel will stop while Torvalds and friends crank out a "stolen laptop tracking system" that is greatly superiorthan any other.
If you are really proactive, you could go steal his laptop yourself. That way you have another laptop to use, and you will jumpstart this scenario.
We are not insensitive, we are pissed off that you get all that cheap Polish sausage to eat, and all them hot Polish women! Take that you insensitive clod!
Back in the old-school AOL days, everything was an advertisement. Nothing misleading you more than the next. Perfect solution for those confused, get them back on AOL where they belong!

Are you sure miles are the distance if you drive them on the left, "wrong", side of the road?

This is a conspiracy by the makers of Lincoln Logs(tm).
Tinkertoys are some of the greatest toys ever made!
Simple in design and use. But with a little imagination they could become practically anything.
I remember making tinkertoy AT-ATs that would "transform" into flying transports with a quick modification.
Ah, memories of the "good ole days"!
Thanks for the effort. Unfortunately, your comment was an improvement in the thread!
Positively insightful.

Maybe the aliens are encrypting their radio transmissions making them indistinguishable from background noise?
Given the current US wiretap rules, that may not be a bad precaution.

Everything I have ever read on cavemen leads me to believe they are big advocates of wireless everything!
Wonder if they had/have blue teeth?

Well, I still love her anyway.
I worry about my kids (1 and 3.5) future.
He didn't have any kids in 2.0, but I am sure he is gearing up for the newly released 4.0 child!
My brother had damn near perfect aim. He often tripped "aimbot cheat catchers" without cheating.
I do love Insta-Gib, but it really sucked when I missed him the first time...never was a second!

They need a really good pet related mascot, say a dog with a black circle painted around his eyes...
What, a sock puppet you say, now that sounds like a really stupid idea! Ah, what the hell, let's get a Superbowl ad too while we are at it!

Nobody gets fired for buying IBM.
Nobody gets fired for buying Microsoft.
Will anybody get fired for buying both?

Nice Patrician's Scorn there!
You had better have already played a white spell, or you better tap that mana!
Hopefully this judgement has destroyed the "enchantment" the RIAA found with these lawsuits!
