I'm pretty sure that's been done, I remember trying some app a few years ago that did that. I think it was something from Google back around the cardboard VR days. It wasn't perfect and no clue how advanced math it could do, but proof of concept exists somewhere.
What if you say throw up a bunch of cubesats and just started broadcasting. If you're not trying to get money seems like there's a big opportunity for a human rights/free information benefactor to jump in.
Or..., Ya know the US government, I could see us provide Russia free rural internet because of this before covering our own country.
1) what did they consider "high exposure"
2) Did they correct for other high risk correlates in the selected group
3) After picking what they considered "high" how large was the change in sample size compared to the overall sample size of the original studies.
I'm actually most Curtis about the third, reduce your N until you're almost guaranteed some significant correlation.
That was my MAIN question and conspicuously absent definition.
What did they consider "high", and also discounting correlated confounds that may have missed the validity how small did the N get when they filtered down to these "high exposure" people.
You can get surprisingly significant results that are actually just random nose but from an (un) lucky confidence your small sample you're results.
The buildings are being built right now, so they're here. The scope is going to be a fraction of what was originally sold to us though. I do see a surge in associate EE programs in the area too.
I live about three miles from where they're building it, on the same main road as the plant even. It's being built, so they're not backing out, we sure as hell aren't getting what was originally planned though.
I've already seen at least three other foreign (European) companies do the same thing in the country but in a much smaller level.
They come here, get virtually free land and no taxes for a certain time if they located here... ALL THREE have no left or are preparing to leave, shockingly not long after the tax break ended.
Since the whole debacle there supposedly started over removal of the third party OS option, which was an original feature they took away. Wouldn't this technically allow anything to be cracked if an "update" removed any functionality?
I like it, just seems like this is HUGE.
Power pivot, data modeling, 3d maps (which is more adding back what cancelling map point took away), macro/script integration improvements, additions of functions and ease of use of data manipulation from built in features.
Word is... Word, word pad is a functional word processor, hell notepad++ is decent for that.
I rarely use PowerPoint but it's seemed to gotten more intuitive from what I can tell.
Visio gets more useful every few years I need to try using that for something.
Really it's more about data manipulation in Excel than anything, but I'm already setting a shift to power bi for the good features.
Considering Bitcoin's ENTIRE market cap is equal to only two years worth of Chinese offshore investment in Australia must say something, just not sure what exactly.
I have to agree more or less with this person. I am also a long time (since it was initially available in my area) TWC broadband subscriber. They also recently upped the up/down speeds for both their normal and high-speed tiers of service in my area. It seems insane to me that they would have the gall to increase the speeds I can transfer at and then say I'm using too much bandwidth. I am paying for a connection SPEED not data AMOUNT. Unless they increase everyones speed to the current max (I think it's something like 1.5mbps in my area) and then alot us usage amounts to try and break down our usage into speed and data tiers is just ridiculous, and if it comes to pass and their pricing structure doesn't remain similar for my high usage as i'm currently paying i'll definitely be going to another provider. DSL, Sattelite, FttH or even tethering a 3G phone to my computer all wouldn't impose restrictions like this proposition.
My (former, i'm a graduate since December) university the University of Wisconsin - Parkside recently sent out an email stating they were also migrating from our current (i'm not sure what but it's horrid) email system to live mail. Fortunately for me i've only used the account for mandatory academic correspondence and use gmail for everything else so it doesn't bother me too much, but seemed and odd move since my school typically supported open software.
I use the bay frequently and probably more than any other torrent site. However, for anyone not paying attention they will also most likely be going away June 1st due to changes in swedish copyright laws.
This is almost dissapointing since there's very little good t.v. these days, and until the last 6 or 7 episodes of enterprise I would've grouped it squarely in the "crap" category. However, I decided to give it a second chance since I saw a few episodes come up online from the new season and I actually liked what I was seeing. Long, well thought out story arcs make for good shows in my opinion and since they were keeping it somewhat low key it didn't get thrown in the face of everything that came after... err before or whatever the hell the other shows were. Plus the vulcan story arc was interesting since there were a lot of tie-ins with the other shows that were very subtle. I think it's a shame it's being cancelled now that it's just starting to show promise.
So I take it this guy is trying to show how good apple servers can be. When a little farther back in this thread a person mentioned that the apple store had been/.ed. If a major computer manufacturers website can be taken down be a mere/. smash I doubt I want to buy their servers.
Wow my opinion of mac users is continuously reinforced. Why would you be computing in the middle of winter on an exposed back porch?? Anyhow, just run cat 5 and buy a cheap surplus P1-2 if all your doing is web browsing. You can probably pick up a system like this for 50-75 and most computers will work in that environment and if it breaks you won't have to worry about replacement costs.
I never really thought of it like that, but really the new ratio enforcing BitTorrent sites are more like old school BBSes than I would've thought. It makes sense though, the old system worked (more or less) all that needs to be improved is anonymity across the system, and that's what each incremental step in distribution has been doing.
They also put up the donation bar for legal defense at the same time all of the other sites were being sent legal notices. They were preparing for the inevitable, i'm just glad to see that at least on of these sites is taking a stand. Regardless of what the true legality is, a legal move this large should not go uncontested.
The same stipulation exists in my cable contract but the guy installing (who pointed it out) made it quite clear that so long as i'm not running at peak capacity 24/7 or trying to host a high traffic web server they'll never bring it up. It's more of a "we reserve the right" clause than anything.
Hah, after I posted I went over and checked on all the teams, and well, damn. Hope they pull it off, it's too bad they seem so far ahead of all the others.
The deadline is 7 months away and we have yet to see an actual unmanned test launch. To think that any of these groups could get a ship into space and back with people onboard within that time frame is hard to believe. I'm all for them getting there, but it seems this deadline is almost useless it inspired a lot of research and competition but how much of this is going to fizzle when no one can meet the goal set (while maintaining any margin of safety). It'd be nice to be the first private group into space, but how would you like to be remembered as the first private group to kill three guys on their way to space?
I recently had a crisis of conscience in deciding whether or not to try FFXI or SW:Galaxies (after years of bashing Everquest players). However, a few of my friends and HL clan mates had picked up these games (mostly SW:G) and were going on about how great they were. So when I started looking into it I realized there really is NO way to try out an MMORPG short of physically going to a friends house and playing on THEIR account, without having to buy a 50 dollar game. Then amazingly Sony introduced a trial buddy system for SW:G that allowed someone to install of their friends disks and play for 7-days. So I embarked into the world of an MMORPG for the first time, and I enjoyed it... a lot, like I was afraid I would. So my trial ran out and I went out and picked up a subscription card, only to find out they still want me to go and buy the game itself (that I already have installed) for 50 bucks w/ a 30 day supscription attached (as opposed to 30 bucks for a 60 day card). I understand that part of these proceeds go to the game developers and studio and what not BUT I think this far in most of those costs are at least somewhat recouped and they're making a profit off of the subscriptions anyway, is it really too much to allow someone to just pay-to-play? I have a hard time bringing myself to spend 50 dollars and then another 30 just to play a game that's already installed on my computer, I see a future for streamed and pay-to-play games (however horrible that may be for gamers) but these companies really need to look into what they're asking of their customers.

So does that mean we won't have to worry about upgrading for another 10 years?
