Learning how to use tools effectively is not the same thing as developing software for the business at home. I've often done the former, but never done the latter. If you want something for the office, you pay me. Up front.
Yeah, but the summary nor the article explain why supersymmetry is a question or an issue in the first place, just that the evidence doesn't support the theory. What does the theory it disproves mean/change?
Maybe because he wanted to give her something memorable instead of just donating to charity in her name?
Personally I'd think that note and photo were the far more valuable portion of the gift. For anyone who collects things like signatures, it'd be a family treasure. I know I'd be framing it and putting it on the wall, as proof that I once was contacted by the elusive Bill Gates.
So you think a low market share device that effectively failed to achieve significant penetration on launch in 1998 is responsible for the success of an embedded low power processor that's been around since the early '80s? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture
Man, I know fanbois really like to pump up Apple, but that's a stretch even for your ilk.
The only trolling I see is yours. You mention nothing about what they've done for this "research" you mention. You don't point out any scenes in the video to support your theory that they've addressed the concern.
Instead you just dive right on in to the insults and name calling.
That's just begging for someone to lose their footing, fall down, and take out half their teeth on the waistband component. Or worse.
I have a hell of a time finding shoes that fit properly, thanks to "duck" feet (wide forefoot, narrow heel.) Somehow I doubt there are going to be all that many fitting options for the "special shoes" required by this device.
Ah well, until the lawsuits roll in from the broken teeth and they get banned from the market for all the injuries I'm sure they'll prove quite popular.
Smart ass. Hemp fiber can replace cotton everywhere that cotton is used. It's a longer, stronger fiber, but just as flexible (i.e. "soft and comfy".)
Look up "hempcrete" for construction.
Then there are the benefits of hemp seed in one's diet, and it's suitability for producing bio-diesel fuels that can run in diesel engines without modifying the engines.
Last but not least is producing paper at 4 times the rate per acre than pulpwood, and without the harsh chemicals required by the wood pulp paper industry.
But that's why hemp was made illegal -- it threatened too many "new industries" of the time.
More to the point, you'll still need to periodically log in to the original default DE to use the system configuration utilities, because the alternate DEs you add on from the repository later usually aren't complete installs of all the tools that can be used to configure the system.
Of course, if you're a long-time Unix/Linux hack, you don't use those fancy GUI tools in the first place, so it won't matter to you. And from what I've seen, people who are experienced enough to apt-get an alternate DE (or a few of them) on a system are the only ones who are also experienced enough to not need the GUI tools. Mom and Pop Joe User need to have everything installed for them all at once from the original installation to get anything done.
Like it or not, to most of the "general" user community, Unity is Ubuntu, much though it sucketh donkey testicles.
$150 a month has to cover stuff like deodorant, razor blades, shaving cream, toothpaste, mouth wash, and food. That's $5/day, not $4/meal as one of the posters higher up had commented about McTesticles. And realistically, the food budget works out to about $120 after those "incidentals", leaving $4/day.
I cook the vast majority of my own food, but there is no getting around the fact that produce is expensive compared to things like home-made burritos, rice and beans, burgers (home made seasoned patties), chilli, and so on.
Aside from that, you need a variety of produce, and a lot of it, to get the range of vitamins that are in a bottle. Tomatoes and lettuce with some onions doesn't cut it.
What ever gave you the idea that I can afford to eat out or eat frozen foods if I'm on such a tight budget?
I make my own frozen foods, at the beginning of every month. They keep -- produce doesn't.
Exactly. A $12 bottle of multivitamins every two months is a heck of a lot cheaper than fresh produce. And when you're on a disability budget, there is no where near enough money for a "healthy" diet.
Hell, I ate better in university than I do nowadays.

Thank you!
Finally someone took the time to provide a concise explanation of WTF it means for supersymmetry to be disproven.
What I'm not interested in is smug assholes claiming "it's in the summary" when it's not.

If his Geek Card is still valid, then yes, I'm sure he does.
He probably gets a hell of a giggle out of the ranting fanbois on all sides of the arguments now that he's retired from the industry...

I must have misread this page earlier. You are correct. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Newton_MessagePad

Wasn't Win95 the first one to actually incorporate the whole OS instead of riding on top of DOS? Or was that Win98?
As much as a consistent UI is important, I think that's a noteworthy piece of historical change in the life of desktop software.
As per usual, you didn't actually read the article, did you?
Win95 is prominently mentioned, and for good reason.

He's dealing with two locations: his home, where he pays for bandwidth, and his work, where the concern is peak hour traffic.

I watched the video. I saw nothing to suggest they've addressed the problem.
Big time whooshed.
There should be treadmarks on your forehead from the plane.

Yep. After all, they're so obedient to the laws of the US itself already...
The crackers will figure out how to trigger the remote kill switch without your authorization, bricking thousands if not millions of phones.
Or the goobernmint will...

Because the western world seems to get 95% of their "education" from movies and TV.

Unless they were bonds, suck it up. The stock market is a gamble, not a GIC or Treasury Certificate.
I'm long past tired of "investors" suing for their losses. You want to gamble with your money, you take the risk of losing it.
If you don't like the risk, buy bonds or deposit your money in a bank for their paltry returns.
The same approach applies to patent, trademark, and copyright laws.
Why in the world should software services be treated as the only exception in the world except to satisfy American megacorps?
Fuck Google.
Let them fight where their customers are.
