Not anymore. Chances are, your standard deduction is larger than you will get by itemizing everything in order to get your mortgage interest deducted. When that interest didn't require you itemize everything it was great, now it $#%!'s you and you can't really use it any more. Business expenses are fairly limited now esp if you use your own home. You need serious medical and charity deductions to really make it worth it. And generally you pray for no medical costs, and never have enough cash left over to really give to charity, other than getting some receipts from goodwill.
Here my limited interpretation. The chip models dual receptors NMDA and some cannabinoid. Essentially, from my limited understanding, you have two way for the synapse to fire. A short term spike, which we are all familiar with from basic AI classes. But there is also a second long term spike that can fire due to a long term build up. the NMDA channel is what we are all familiar with, it's this second channel using the cannabinoid receptor that makes these chip models different. You can essentially have two waves propagating through the system independently from each other, yet influencing each other. One based on short ripples in the pond, and another based on echoes from other ripples. Either one can tip the balance at any given time, causing extremely complicated firing patterns, that are difficult to computationally impossible to model digitally. You're always going to have rounding errors... Like I said this is my basic understanding, and is probably way off...
I thought exactly the same thing as you did. That one could just strap together a web came or what have you, and LCD monitor etc. And you sure can. But here where the difference lies. For $3000 you get a drastically simplified that an 80+ year old can handle. It has buttons that they can actually feel, remember, they can't see the little camera buttons. They get some one to call when they have problems, that isn't you. And chances are given his age, he may have barley been in the tail end of WWII, and the VA will pay for these things, and show them how to use them. Over the years I have gone through this same thing, and just have your family get together the money and get something nice. You can probably save a little on the LCD.
Seems like a job for Scientific Linux. Admittedly it is put together by particle physicists as opposed to cosmologists but I'm sure they generally like to do a lot of the same things.
Some do, but it would be nice if all apps would bundle their selinux policies. With the exception of your last "make HTTP requests to http://gracenote.com/ " it has all of this. It just can't act like a firewall. Where I work a decent amount of time is spent creating custom policies for each app we use on our servers. Because the vendors didn't see fit to make one. We have a custom overall policy that these fit into. I know there a decent push to get control groups to help out with some of this as well, but I think they are a bit too broad in a lot of ways.
I think you're right. I grew up with it being SIU and SIU-E. I still consider SIU-E an extension center/ interloper. But having never actually gone to either school, I could care less and simply pass the time by making fun of them and watching the quality of their students drop. They [SIUC] used to have separate classes for newly enrolled students without the proper math and/or English skills to catch up to the collage level. As of this year, because over 54% of new freshmen don't have those skills, they just included it in as part of the curriculum for ALL incoming students. I do enjoy all of the student loan money they bring to the area though, we wouldn't exist anymore with out it.
I went to a college where it was almost embarrassing to be on the football team. Most of the athletes on the teams said that they chose our college because they weren't good enough to go 'pro', wanted an education, and wanted to actually have a chance to get off the bench and play.
I didn't end up going into Journalism, but took a number of classes associated with the University Of Missouri School of Journalism. And one of the things that was beaten into you was the ethics. I've never been able to understand how much corruption really is in the system vs. what every Journalism student is taught. It's amazing and sad really. That saddest part is that the corruption is considered normal, and the unbiased reporting is what really makes the news.
I used to frequent Medellin, Colombia in the 90's after my mother moved there to teach English. This was during the period of time where there was a large amount of violence due to Pablo Escobar and company. Lot's of bombings etc. (Side note... Bombs happen on the quarters of the Hour, thunder any other time)... We we're driving by a recently bombed, mafia owned, apt. building from night before, and noticed some of the CNN crew from our hotel in the parking lot of the building closely surrounded by about 12 people. The camera guy was on his knees. The rest of the lot was pretty much empty. A cleanup crew here or there. The reporter was on the outside of the circle directing folks around. Later that night, we happen to see the footage produced.... it was a riot... No seriously... CNN portrayed the 12 people as a massive riot of frightened locals in complete panic. They weren't even from the building.... Mafia families who pay $1,000,000 for an apt. in that building don't tend to stick around, much less dress like laborers. Nothing like being a rural mid-western teenager spending his summers in a third world country.

I think this is the whole point of the devops stuff. It's not IT's fault, it's not the developer's fault, nor is it QA's fault. The larger your organization, the larger communications gap between these 3 areas. The devops folks are there to coordinate and communicate between the three. They may review/write a little code, they may consult on infrastructure, they may make sure things get tested appropriately and meet the customers expectations. For small shops/teams this fairly straight forward. Big shops have to have someone who's job is to know everything about the project. There is a similar position in commercial building. It's the "site manager" they make sure that the contractor is building what the architect asked for. From the number of bathroom stalls, to the depth of the foundation. Which at the same time working with the architect to fix problems that arise from misplaced city sewers lines, an unavailability italian terrazzo tiles in rural Illinois. All the while making sure that the customer is getting what they paid for and understanding and approving changes. Sorry I didn't have a good car analogy.....
Who's in first? Seriously..... And don't say "I don't know". He's on second.... Which country is in first place in the "fermi lab" kind of physics area? It's not the LHC. That's a bunch of countries, the US included... Japan with their neutrino searching facilities? Who really leads the world in this area?
This drives me crazy. I know a number of people who have written it off just for that reason. They don't want anymore google accounts. I currently have 4, I have co-workers and friends with that many and more. Job, job, moonlighting job, and personal. With all of these organizations switching over it's just building up and I want google+ to manage it. Not to just disallow it.
I haven't read the covenant yet, but plan to. As for the editorial and summary, thanks. This is a real help to the community. I only hope it's enough to take some of the edge off of the dual licensing issue. I spend a fair amount of sleepless nights debating with myself whether or not to dual license my software. It's the kind of thing would be good for the community to have and make lives better, as well pay some of my debit back to the OSS community. At the same time, I need to eat. It truly is a deep moral and ethical question for everyone writing software and wanting to use it to feed themselves; just how much do we owe the community and how much can we afford to pay without hurting ourselves. Is support and training income enough? My current philosophy has been to start at a dual license level and if it doesn't work out, then just a single OSS license.
Just wanted to say thanks for the hard work on these issues.
Same here, no real set of home keys perhaps [w,d,space] and [o,k,space] and I don't use the ring or pinky fingers. I manage about 80 words a min, have been doing this for 20 years, and have no RSI. Although if you put me on an ergonomic as opposed the Model M I use every day, I drop to about 10 words a min. I have to look for each letter at that point. I tend to use my arms to move around the keyboard. It's not efficient, but it works.
Found the link I was looking for. http://www.niac.usra.edu/files/studies/final_report/1071Bickford.pdf Take a look at it, it was a NASA study on the practicality of collection, and storage of antimatter using the earth's and other planets magnetic fields.
Everyone will have their own opinions, but here is mine. The nice thing about java is that you can run the code just about anywhere. There are great libraries out there for free to help you accomplish almost anything. The web is filled with examples and documentation for Java. Lots and Lots of enterprises use it for critical things. Java projects are fairly easy to maintain. Eclipse is a very capable editor, and does re-factoring pretty well. My understanding is that python can have some complicated version issues. Java has maintained backward compatibility fairly well. I like being able to develop on any platform in the same IDE and run it on any other platform w/o really worrying about compatibility issues. If you were talking about writing GUI apps as opposed to web apps, I'd suggest you might want to go someplace else though, as I've never had much luck with any of the visual form editors, and doing it by hand is tedious. JavaFX has some buzz around it, but I'm not going to hold my breath. I think there is a lot of potential with HTML5/and SVG canvases, XML/XSL, and Java which when using Saxon's XML libraries can do some crazy things. Java Servlets handle interaction with AJAX pretty well too.
My understanding is that with enough antimatter this is feasible. And with the recent confirmation of antimatter being contained in earth's magnetic field where in theory it could be harvested and stored this is even more feasible. I think I read that Earth is expected to have 10Kg of harvest-able antimatter per year, and Saturn 100Kg+/ year.
5250 I believe, but have no interest in checking, but you can always get ProTerm? or something and ssh to a box that has emulation. God only knows how you hit all of the function keys though.:) Seriously though, Apple needs to improve their keyboard emulation for it to be truly useful. There are so many things you can't do to manage a remote pc if you can't hit ctl- or alt- .
You need to pay more attention. According to the NPR story that ran a few weeks back, that's exactly what they do. Little tiny offices with no occupants in some small town in Texas, which are effectively controlled by the company that owns the patent pool every one else bought into. Ugh... makes me sick. Sorry if I missed the sarcasm in your post.
But the deeper question is can we Rule 34 this?
