Do you actually think the concept of a heat map is new?
A great graph has, (1) a title, (2) labeled x- and y-axes, (3) a 3D figure should also have labels for intensity and the z-axis. All text should be readable or removed. Generally, difficult to interpret figures should have a paragraph below them explaining (a) what they show and--ideally--(b) what the researcher concludes form the graph when this is not obvious.
Did anyone else notice that the article has no actual information in it? Also, the graphs are impenetrable until you have read tons of text (bad sign!).
Also, "Some of the heat maps, such as the rainbow pterodactyl, are also interesting examples of how deep and beautiful a simple visualization can be." translation: "I like pretty graphs and have found they can substitute for actual information."
I think if you RTA, he is complaining about being forbidden from selling android apps because of the country he is from. But aside from not being allowed to play, yeah, it is totally different than not being allowed to play on Apple's phone.
It's really hard to say. Most of the costs of the bike come from the high mortality rate of riders. These are very hard to compare to the more easily fungible costs of the train.
Does anybody know of really good statistics on mortality per mile for various modes of transportation and efficiency for various modes? I do remember that in the 1990s the 1e-6 risk for a bike is about 10 miles, car about 10 times that, and about 2000 miles for a bus. Subways would presumably be off the map for safety since passenger miles are huge but fatal crashes are very rare and no worse than a bad pileup.
it's really the reviewers that you should hold responsible for this. They need to be able to tell you how they got the chip. What else do they have but their reputation?

Nah, you hook it up, do constant read writes and wait until it fails. If it takes more than a few years (as you claim) then that's a pretty good indication of what one might expect. On the other hand, if it doesn't, you got to start worrying.
Except that it is rated at 1M read/writes. Theoretically, they could test any EEPROM that they could get hooked up (this one is 128-bits, I would guess that this the sort of size that is applicable). If they could get one from a manufacturer... they could test it with this rig.
This is a test of a single EEPROM, there isn't really a magnetic equivalent. It's part of why routers et cetera all use flash (a type of EEPROM) instead of magnetic hard drives, you can have a 4 MB flash, but not so economical for magnetic hard drives.
The point is that the speaker things that there is all this meaning in their swear words but they add zero or near zero communicative value. From the listeners' perspective, they might mean just about anything. You might as well say, "She's adjective gorgeous." In your example adjective might be, "really" or "annoyingly" the speaker knows what they meant and thinks the listener does too (and the listener might even choose their own meaning and think the speech was specific too) but in fact, there is nothing there.
the point is that the meaning is actually the same--similar to using an exclamation mark or not, as you say. The actual thought is completely contained in the sentences without the swear words, they are just there to add adjectives. But then they don't actually add anything. That's the point. The though are dull and uninteresting, I might be tempted to think the same thing of the speaker.
Let me help, when you use a swear word as an adjective, you miss the opportunity to use an adjective that would help the listener. Think of someone leaving a class room where the just got a bad grade on their test they could say, "I hate that f*cking teacher. He is such an *ss" removing the swear word, "I hate that teacher. He is an..." makes it clear that the thought is really quite banal, makes you sound stupid (worthy of the C). The speaker would feel compelled to add something so that they might say, "I hate that droning teacher. He is never nice to me." Much more communicative.
Okay, lets focus on credit default swaps. Here, there is no natural seller: the entity that can pay out when things go bad for every firm it has a CDS sold on, unless they have reserve ratios like... an insurance firm, at least for the CDS in their portfolio.
Also, what purpose is there to naked CDSs?
Finally, there is no finance theory that says puts are useful, you have to have lots and lots of poorly informed owners for this to be a useful tool and not just a loto ticket, and then you have to wonder, why are there so many poorly informed owners?

Do you have a link with more information on this? Is this current?

If you read the article (well, his comments anyway), android does not allow Australians to sell. He is just stone walled right from the get go.
I think if you RTA, he is complaining about being forbidden from selling android apps because of the country he is from. But aside from not being allowed to play, yeah, it is totally different than not being allowed to play on Apple's phone.
uh, what would you call my simple cell phone that can't use apps of any kind?
The app is still live on the store. I wonder if this isn't just a great marketing stunt?
queue, "2)???"

Unless you use RAID 3, 4 or 5, then your array would be toast. But O/W, it's just limping.

That is 3, maybe it should say
(3) if read read what write wrote... but that's a mouth full.

(1) write data
(2) verify write worked
(3) if read worked, return to (1) as necessary
(4) else only allow reads.

According to the article, flash is a type of EEPROM, so what is the problem?
Except CUPS and Webkit?
"there's really no way to express exactly the meaning behind "Have a nice fucking day" in *any other way*,"
Uh, try saying "Have a nice day" as if you really wanted to toss in a swearword but decided not to. No real difference there.

I don't recall arguing that the state should limit speech, just that swear words were not very communicative or helpful.
Wow dude, you have totally missed out on the last 10 years of OS improvements then.
To be fair, this is a problem for WINDOWS (*
