"a squiz"? Squiz VERB (chiefly Australian) To look at
I'm not sure you'd even be able to understand it because it goes against the grain of conventional thinking. Don't underestimate the powers of my comprehension.
Really the only way of dealing with this perfectly is making the media impossible to disconnect until the filesystem is dismounted orderly. This can be done with CD and tape drives, but isn't going to work with anything connected to an USB port. It could do if you wanted it to, there's these two little holes on the USB connector that a latch could engage during transfer.
What bugs me is that CC doesn't seem to protect from Compulsory Licensing, so commercial radio can play e.g. a CCNC work (albeit with accompianing fee, but that's beside the point). No?
In fact I name it Aneurysm's law:) Aneurysm Slaw? It sounds like a side dish made from cabbage and bulging blood vessels. I'm trying to decide if I'm glad I already finished eating lunch a minute ago or not.
True, XO is not trying to make a profit. But its suppliers are. XO doesn't actually make any hardware. Everything is outsourced. So, no, it doesn't make sense. Except that in your example both Intel and its suppliers are trying to make a profit so the analogy is flawed. Also if you see here:
The OLPCs will cost US$175 per machine, with Quanta taking a profit of US$3 per machine, Nicholas Negroponte, the former director of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Media Lab who now heads the nonprofit OLPC, said last month.
The profit is less than what Quanta receives from its mainstream PC business, but it would still be a lucrative unit if the first-year shipments reached 10 million as projected. Quanta are actually producing this at a reduced margin.
I'm just disappointed that I can't get one for my daughters here in Australia.
Man, and I thought that was just an idle threat. You should get him a shirt that says "I was replaced by a series of scripts" and use his fate as a warning to others. Darth Vader ain't got shit on you. I was replaced by a series of scripts and all I got was this lousy T-shirt
If they would give him anything, and he only got 15K?????? What an idiot.
Maybe he signed the same contract most as most RIAA artists (there doesn't seem to be much between RIAA and MPAA). No, then he would've had to pay them.
Thank you.
I feel like I'm reading my own bio. there although I'm probably a few years younger, I was "diagnosed" with ADD but not put on meds. I was constantly nagged by my supervisors at school for not performing in line with my "potential". I have a high IQ. I ended up dropping out of high school. I have since undertaken various academic endeavours and have been unsuccessful at all but one, a diploma of programming which I excelled at. The environment at that college was: self-taught, self-paced and with instructors to answer any queries; that was a fantastic place. I have a successful career as a software developer but almost everything I know has been self taught.
I wonder how many people there are like us out there (there should be a group for us).
I occasionally see algorithms used to predict future outcomes of a system where the algorithm appears to have been manipulated to fit the data rather than actually attempt to model the system in question. A prime example is one where the "novelty" of the universe is plotted over time and spikes appear in correlation with historic events. My question: Is there a specific term to describe this type of shenanigans? In the general case it should probably be considered a form of "overfitting", in the sense of what happens when you use a high-order polynomial to pass your plot through all your data points, rather than using a straight line or simple curve and allowing some of the data to scatter around it.
Of course, if you deliberately do it to misrepresent something, it can be called "lying" rather than "overfitting". The sad thing in the Novelty Theory case is that it's proponents believe in it.

Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
Seriously though, you got any draft material? I'd be interested to have a squiz.
Did you mean: Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation? Results 1 - 10 of about 28,400,000 for Lazer
Is that like a variation of Rule 34?
I'm kind of obsessed with Polish culture, it's quite a difficult tongue twister.

Don't tell anybody, ok? ****
thats what I see
I already modded but what the hell.
Firstly who modded that redundant?
Secondly, fail:

I think I'm going to go home and practice heterosis.
*that's* funny.

I saw the tag tacomanarrows and was thinking "WTF are Man Arrows!?" for a while before I realised what the tag meant.
Thanks by the way.
I also found this linked to from the wiki page on overfitting which seems appropriate.
