Because markets behave rationally ?
The prospect of a sudden influx of rare earth materials or fuels couldn't drive down the commodity pricing ? Even if this prospect seems baseless right now (cost of recovering the materials seems rather high) it could still have an effect on pricing.
Besides that, OP was wrong to (didn't RTFA I guess), unless you want to "land" the astroid on earth, the $195B isn't added directly on the market, rather it decreases the amount of materials needed to be send into space @ $10m/tonne.
However, for this you would need to create refineries and more in space (right now they are still in prototype scale, with "70-lb DragonFlies"). As such I highly doubt that the exact cost/benefit could be determinned at this point in time, since (space program) estimates are inaccurate.
well, by all means, tell me where I'm wrong (this is not meant as sarcasm)
note that this is not radiation treatment, this method does allow for the mosquitoes to reproduce naturally before they die, it's the children of these males that will die unless treated from a genetic disease, but with several million mosquitoes, I do believe there might be a chance random mutations could have an effect.
unfortunately i currently don't have time to research the exact workings or any statistics involved with random mutations, so i'm just basing this on the article and what I thought i knew, but you're more than welcome to educate me (please provide links with info if you plan on using jargon specific to genetics or micro-biology)
well, the way it goes with diseases is,
random mutations cause some to be immune, they remain alive
the next year only the immune creatures breed and they fill the void made by the lack of breeding of the then dead ones
in 3 years time the population is back to the old level, but now the creatures have immunity for this affliction
i can't see why this wouldn't happen with an engineered disease or disorder, but then i'm no biologist either, so fee lfree to correct me
seriously, why is evolution that hard to believe for some people (religious fanatics mostly) ?
actually, if you're using it to identify somebody, or if you keep it as general information about somebody(access log), then yes, yes it is
just like a social security number is personal data, or the number on your id-card or your home-address and so on
ooh yeah, don't confuse US-law with EU-law;)
and offcourse, IANAL
d'oh, before people bash me, I meant after they're done with their work at mozilla, I think it's an excellent move and more projects should be able to get UI designers. Because let's face it, most of us programmers don't know how to make stuff pretty:)
the Open Office project.
I always find myself lost when trying even basic stuff, could be I just suck at it;-) but somehow I've always appreciated indesign more
"Apple, for its part, might reasonably claim it doesn't want to license WMA from Microsoft, a cost the complaint speculates is unlikely to exceed $800,000, or 3 cents per iPod sold in 2005."
Enterprises usually don't share their intranet with the whole world, so netcraft is only an indication to the level of linux/windows/... servers on the public internet.
That's one of the many problems with counting server os's imho, and then we haven't even touched the subject of virtualisation.
What i meant was, i don't know how you become a "partner" on MSN (you pay them, you let them make a case study,...) but they are and it seems obvious that a MSN Belgium partner has something favourable to say about their partner
The company in question according to the article is hostingbasket, so lets check it out:
Linux and Windows.
Their "basic" packet starts at 8 euro / month for linux hosting and 10 euro/month for windows hosting
Now, how about hostingbasket and microsoft ? well, I'm going to be honest, I don't know much about how msn works but this company has its own subdomain on msn http://hostbasket.msn.be/ , so this study looks a bit odd to me
The article said INDIA... I thought the headline said "Indian Satellite Lost in Launch Explosion", thus the missile ("The Agni-III surface-to-surface missile crashed into the Bay of Bengal."(from article)) must be an INDIAN missile is indeed, from what I understand, you must imply that : A) only North Korea is using missiles B) The rest of the world does not have an arsenal of ICBM (or other) long-ranged missiles C) Yes, that does include the USA, Russia, -insert-your-country-here- ,... D) Basic reading is hard, yet replying is easy
have a nice day:x
If i'm not mistaken the img's from spam isn't included in the email itself, but it's on a webserver, so if you simply count the number of send spam vs number of unique visitors to those img's you have the delivery rate, check those ip's against the ip's of the people following the link and you not only have the click-through rate, but you also have the number of people who click-through more then once;-)
It's not really a shock, but I am wondering why people think google is planning a second internet. Is the old VOIP-guessing not spectacular enough anymore ?

Unfortunately they'll probably use the Suse vouchers from Microsoft
in that case, let's only count people who can afford 1GBps leased lines
microsoft, everybody loves to hate them

In Belgium it's 70 after the auther has died, now you try and explain that to me

They link your myspace with your telco reccords and get your real name ( or your parents name )
OMG You know Tom too ?
Even if they did, one could argue they would have seized the logs illegaly
yeah, I wish we used microkernels today, mayby we could put it in OS X or something else nobody uses, oh wait ...
Actually we don't have to wait,there was a story about a lawsuit like this. A federal circuit court held that mere thinking violates the patent, it was about a patented fact. http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/03/19/18 16207

should bugs or exploits in windows still be frontpagenews ?
