Here you go in a nice logical format: the set "Proper Y" belongs to the superset "Y" or Yo -> Y the set "Defective Y" belongs to the superset "Y" or Y' ->Y Yo+Y' = Y Y -> male Y' -> male therefore the statement that "The only time such women typically discover they have a Yis when they discover they have fertility problems." is a nonsensical. Your statement should thus be:"The only time these men with female genitalia typically discover they have a Y is when they discover they have fertility problems."
I understand, I was just trying to show that many of the services the future of smart phones in their evolution will not need huge bandwidth requirements.
Why does bandwidth seem to be sich a problem. Much of the data can be stored directly in the "phone" and predictive services can off load much of the dynamic data. Example: your phone grabs your calendar and knows that at 10 you have a meeting across town. If you do have a car it snags the GPS nav data for the immediate area as well as predicted traffic patterns, if you do not have a car then it contacts the taxi company and arranges transport. Your meeting is with new clients (ones not in its database) so even though you have it scheduled for 2 hours it knows there is strong flexibility in that time. It has already loaded in the public profiles of the people you will be meeting with as well as your health profile so when you extend the meeting over lunch it takes into need your caloric needs plus communicating with your clients and submits you options for food. GPS and traffic info allow the rest of your schedule to be dynamically changed.
Now most of this data is retrieved via hardline while you are asleep or when you receive the appointment info. Individual personal data overlays are received peer to peer from the public profile on the other person's "phone" and can be used short range. this way only updates need to be sent over the "cell" network. It records and transcribes your daily interaction, overlays your vision with information you are normally interested in and even makes suggestions and helps you manage your time and life. This is part of what I se as the future of "cell phones" and part of me is terrified by it and part of me is fascinated by it,
The results: Ruby and Python saw a rise in questions asked on the weekend while C# and Java saw a dropoff in activity on the weekend. This means that more programmers are using Python and Ruby on the weekend for their personal projects, showing that these languages are more fun to use.
It could just a plausibly mean that Ruby and Python means more overtime or weekend shifts, or that coders are doing a 2nd job for more income and it is focused in the normal work weeks downtime. Of course it is/. and I do not expect unbiased summaries by any means but sometimes they are downright silly in the conclusions drawn.
I personally think the best way to implement this is to not allow the mail in if the sender has not already paid. PLus it should be 1c per recipient not 1c per email. SPammers make money because the over head is effectively nil and so any profit is substantial compared to the cost. Ars Technica claims 12% of people have at some time wanted to buy somethings from a spammer, but I cannot find out what % of spam actually generates a sale. Lets pretend that the rate of actual spam pieces to orders generated is 1%, though I suspect it is much lower. If it is $1 then the system will fail because the profit margin for bulk mailing spam is still large. However if it is.1% then we are talking about $10 in "advertising" (read spam) per sale and that is far less profitable. Plus it potentially could eliminate botnets with regards to spam.
Why do you think the network would allow transmission without the funds already being there? If you were botted, you would only be able to send however many messages you had previously paid for. Lets say a home user sends lot more email that he receives, to the tune of 100 per day (grandpa was quite amorous in his youth and he likes to send out emails to all his grandkids 4X a day, but none of them ever reply to the old letch) So he sets up an account that is good for 3000 emails which is a grand 30 dollars. If he were botted that 30 dollars would disappear overnight and he couldn't send any ore till he filled back up his account or received more emails. I think he might spot something strange going on when he was notified he couldn't send constant updates to his g-kids anymore.
Bulk mailers who have 1 million people on their list? 10 grand per send. Thats a lot of cash, but if you have 1m customers you need to reach it is by far the cheapest way to do it. RSS can take the place of many updates that companies send and will only reach active subscribers.
Instead of sending the 1c to a charity, why not send it to the receiver? I receive some x number of mail's per day and send y , but the number is small and the x-y is even smaller. However for the spammer x is probably similar, where y is 8+ orders of magnitude higher resulting in a financial disincentive to spam. Commercial email is incentivized to reduce its mailing lists and target more accurately, yet is not significantly punished for its high output to input ratio.
Well if reliability is what you are looking for then Linux is not the way to go either as there are embedded systems with orders of magnitude more reliability than Linux. So oh wise one with your infinite knowledge of one company that you likely do not make decisions for: Why do you use Linux if not for the reasons I posted above?
Linux is more reliable, but that is not the reason is is used. Linux is cheap, can be stripped down to its essentials thus having less of a footprint and is easily extensible. That is why Linux is used. If M$ gave away the compilers and libraries then made windows truly modular companies would start using it instead. Sad but true.
Lots of "things" are said and lots of things are wrong. "people only use 10% of their actual brain power" is belongs to both groups.
Though an alluring idea, the "10 percent myth" is so wrong it is almost laughable, says neurologist Barry Gordon at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in Baltimore. Although there's no definitive culprit to pin the blame on for starting this legend, the notion has been linked to the American psychologist and author William James, who argued in The Energies of Men that "We are making use of only a small part of our possible mental and physical resources." It's also been associated with to Albert Einstein, who supposedly used it to explain his cosmic towering intellect.
True, but at least this next Box is cheap. The family packs are running under $10 a machine or $29 singly on amazon right now. What I am not looking forward to is upgrading my server, that always hurts my wallet, but this time its $499 for unlimited.
Sure it is likely the last major update BEFORE Snow Leopard but it is certainly not the last update for leopard.
Also to the person who asked why link to the combo update as opposed to the smaller incremental: In my personal deployment experience the combo updates are much less likely to cause any problems when updating.
Thats why I put the ? after the amperage. I looked at some other 200v charging systems for cars and they were 50 amp so I went with it. Unfortunately TFA was very light on details. find out what the actual amperage is and you can do the actual numbers, until then it is just napkin math.
Napkin math time: 8 Hr charge @ 200V and 50A? gives 80kwh looking at http://www.eia.doe.gov/cneaf/electricity/epm/table5_6_a.html I see an average of 11.59c per kwh gives $9.722 per charge 100 miles per charge mean a direct charging cost of 9.722 cents per mile
Similarly my 1994 minivan gets 23mpg. @ $2.549 per gallon according to http://www.fuelgaugereport.com/ thats 11.08 cents per mile
now if i drove something smaller that got maybe 28mpg (not an unreasonable number) that would drop to 9.104 cents per mile
Talk to me when I can save some money and drive an electric vehicle. Obviously none of this includes taxes, infrastructure maintenance or any other costs,. just cost per mile for the charge vs gasoline.
"Neither apparent entropy nor birth defects however necessitate an infallible God however"
should read "Neither apparent entropy nor birth defects however necessitate an fallible God." the second "however" is superfluous and infallible should have been fallible.
You asked and so I will answer. I do know that you will reject my answer however as it contradicts your presuppositions, while at the same time it fits rationally with my own. Further, understanding that presuppositions are founded upon revelation, I can thus be assured that no amount of reason/argument/logic will change your presuppositions to that which would align itself with my own.
Why then even respond to your post? Because you asked.
Why are some men color-blind while some women can perceive an extra color?
Original Sin. I suppose, though I have not given it considerable thought, that one could view entropy as one of the effects of original sin. Neither apparent entropy nor birth defects however necessitate an infallible God however.
You do it and get a judge to rule on it. The company I was affiliated with tried and failed. Right or wrong, the judge said the opposite of what you are saying. As a small non-profit they did not have the money to continue the appeal process.
I don't keep copies of every suit I have ever been in around, in fact I don't keep any. Further, the guys who got sued would likely not appreciate having their name tossed about again since they are getting on with things and recovering nicely.
No one converted the texts, it was literally a database containing 60k+ tiffs of photocopies.
For the record: all I did for the company was extract the pages from the database and order them into volumes.
If the company had done something like extract the text maybe things would have gone differently, I do not believe the judge said anything about the raw text. He did however rule the volumes of photocopies and the database of images were collections and therefore protected.
No citations, I am simply relating what happened in the case I was involved with. As I have explained elsewhere: Company A scanned a large number of documents (around 60,000 pages if I recall) containing primarily books from the 17th and 18th Century. Company B (whom I was affiliated with) acquired a copy of the database. Company B said Hey these are all photocopies of public domain texts, we should bind them together and sell them, and did so. Company A said Not so fast thats our work and you can't sell those. Company B argued like so many people here on slashdot have and said Its all public domain no can haz copyright. Company A went to Judge C who said: individual pages are public domain, whole volumes are collections and are protected by copyright.
If company B had done the photocopying and scanning maybe the judge would have ruled otherwise.
For all those who claim I don't know anything, and they know everything because of this or that, again I am simply telling people what happened with us and how the judge explained it. Could you do the same thing and not be sued into oblivion? Possibly. The courts are not always right, neither are lawyers. How much money has the SCO debacle cost so far?
Slashdot Mirror
Here you go in a nice logical format:
the set "Proper Y" belongs to the superset "Y" or Yo -> Y
the set "Defective Y" belongs to the superset "Y" or Y' ->Y
Yo+Y' = Y
Y -> male
Y' -> male
therefore the statement that "The only time such women typically discover they have a Yis when they discover they have fertility problems." is a nonsensical. Your statement should thus be:"The only time these men with female genitalia typically discover they have a Y is when they discover they have fertility problems."
Male, as I already stated.
*Agrees*
As far as I am concerned if it has only X chromosomes it is female, else it is male.
