I think it's just uranium with fewer neutrons shootin' out than before. I'm pretty sure it's still uranium atoms though, just not radioactive (do they break down into other elements? someone knows). I think that's what it is, IANANP, AFAIK, IIRC...
I don't think that's the point. I think they're just interested on what impact this has on superconductor theory. No one's about to build a huge radioactive train or a bunch of radioactive power lines.
This makes me wonder. I don't think the article really clarified on whether it was the radioactive property that makes it interesting, or just how the actual metal atom works. If that's the case, then what's the problem with depleted uranium? IANANP (nuke physicist), but I guess since they didn't mention it, it wouldn't work.
Ha! The funny thing is, I didn't even see the humor in that at first glance. Not because I didn't get it, but because that's my completely natural reaction.
I opened it in a new tab and I really will just look at it later.
I'm sure that would violate some sort of federal mail-tampering law or whatnot. I don't see the harm, though, in seeing if he's interested in some special offers, though, do you?
2835 as of right now. I thought the./ effect was much more severe. However, this is on an article with 60 (score:1) posts. Imagine what happens to the 400-700 post jobs.
The gravitational pull for any star that close probably could pull the change right out of your pocket, as well (and possibly the eyes right out of your skull).
yes! I was feeling nostalgic lately, so I got some Nintendo ROMS and old abandoned DOS games. The old Sierra series were good, perhaps better than some new games, and they weren't even 3d.
Isn't it more of an educational tool these days, rather than a practical OS? I think every CS student had to buy Tanenbaum's book for their OS class. I think it's more of a prototypical UNIX that's good for studying how OS's actually work.
...and so on and so forth. Eh, what are ya gonna do.
I guess that's how the whole darn human comedy keeps perpetuatin' itself, down through the ages, westward in the wagons, until...aw shoosh, look at me, I'm ramblin' again.
I don't know how most schools are...but the school I just got by BS from lumps math and comp sci right together. Though we had to take a lot of math as it was (especially higher math, discrete math), we also had some math professors teaching CS courses (algorithms, intro to computer systems, even operating systems).
I think this prepared us pretty well for what would be a more theoretical-type CS career (i.e. not just going to work as a programmer or web developer, but also continuing on to your masters or PhD).
Some of the ideas the department was real big on was proving correctness, for example, by induction. Instead of giving you a compiler and API and saying here, do this, they made you write it out and actually write a proof about why/how your program works (now imagine people actually doing that, for their OS's CreateProcessEx function!).

Yeah!
i am sure we have enough intellegent members to START to make a difference!
YEAH!!
LETS DO IT!
Eh.
I didn't think so.

Then why did they bother emulating it, instead of just running it on Nesticle?

Wait, do they mean 100 trillion bytes, or 100 * 2**40 bytes? That's how these sneaky hard drive manufacturers get you!

You've been using the Web Economy Bullshit Generator, haven't you!
How about the Oh Shit Everything's Getting Sucked Into It and We're All Gonna Die Star of Death?
So is that why I get script monkeys flooding my webserver with crap like this?

Didn't need no millions-of-dollars report to convince me!
I'm not sure I got that. Do you mean your mind, or actually your brain (and likely other, including gonadal) tissue turning buttery?

Mostly the same stuff, possibly?

But are they ill-tempered, or do they have laser beams attached to their heads?
(sorry)

I like breaded mule, especially the chicken-fried I had at Outback. Oh, you mean breeding!
Sorry, corny joke. Had to do it. So sorry. :)
Now, it's when these holes start bumping uglies and making baby ozone holes that we'll have to start worrying.
I bet they paid way too much for those Pringles cans (like their $400 hammers and $600 toilet seats).
