You can still see DC gear in action-- the NYC subway. Actually, all but the switches and signal lights, so while it has its own DC generators, they can not make it go because of these minor exclusions.
R is a free software version of S, which initially appeared in 1975, about 10 years before Excel hit the shelves for the Mac in 1983 and DOS in 1985.
The real difference is that R is a programing language, and looks sort of like one. Excel is a GUI for a very simple programing language, and looks like one.
R only sort of looks like a programing language because lots of objects have custom print commands so that when you print them they print out a very pretty summary of themselves instead of just puking all over your screen like most OO languages do when you just print an object. This means that when you use it interactively, it feels like statistics software, but you can still use the programing language parts of it. When you use it non-interactively, it feels like a programing language that happens to have all sorts of statistical sugar.
Supercooled means liquid helium or less. This is not the same (and about 2-5 times more costly) than liquid nitrogen cooled. There are superconductors that work at liquid nitrogen temperatures, but that cannot be pulled into wires that can carry the same current as the supercooled superconductor materials (or that was the state of the art when I last checked around 2000) so they are not used for very large magnets.
But not the foresight to use a language that does not allow an "=" in a if statement? seriously, who would do that?
I like old school S where the = wasn't even allowed, now you can use it to assign (used to have to use "-", and you still can) then there is never any confusion.
Yeah, that's all fine and good until you print an old paper scanned in from jstor to your printer, it uses pstopdfil and uses as much memory as I can buy and continues to swap like a drunken bastard. Not using the printer is not exactly an option here.
IWARP (I was a radiation physicist) and temperature has been convincingly ruled out for changing decay rates. It is a very interesting case for chemists because it is one of the only non-temperature dependent reactions known.
While the eye captures a 2D image, we actually have in our brains a three dimensional map of what we see. Our brain uses the focus of the object, information about it's movement, continuity of position, and a whole lot of imputation to develop a 3D map of what we see. That map is not always accurate, but it is a map nonetheless. You can read about it in a psychology text book if you like.
It's not what percentage of the consumer base is artists, it's what percentage of computer purchases are for artists. i.e. firms in the movie/TV business with render farms buy more computers/person than other firms.
when I do, "osascript -e 'tell app "ARDAgent" to do shell script "whoami"';" I get the reply, "root"
But then, the washington post's suggested fix, "osascript -e 'tell app "ARDAgent" to do shell script "chmod 0555/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAgent"';" just gives, "ARDAgent: Operation not permitted (1)"
Suggesting the user changed for this command? This is on 10.4.11. But on one of my computers it worked only if I dropped the semi colon, and on the other it worked only with... odd
When you get into inverting matricies, or doing matrix vector multiplication the algo is very easily in parallel, but I always wonder where the full matrices live. i.e. they could easily be tens of GBs of matrix, so the CPU would seem to have to be heavily involved as well.
Just to be clear, I was asking why I couldn't run it on my PPC. Since the idea of java is that it can run anywhere, it seemed odd to me that the java runtime would not work on all the Apples that are supported for OS X.
Sorry for being unclear, the question was why isn't the application "java" a universal binary so that it can run on all Mac computers (the universe of Apple).
Yeah, took me a minute to figure that out. This makes it even more odd in my mind--why would Apple do this to its 32-bit Intel customers?
Having used Apples for a while now I know that if you don't have the latest OS you are not likely to get all the latest and greatest. For hardware, you usually have to be on the latest chip, but they have been going out of their way to make the Power/Intel switch smooth, so this strikes me as odd.
This isn't the silver bullet that will bring Linux into the mainstream for the desktop (as in over 15% of desktop PCs), but is definitely a good sign for many reasons. (1) it is a necessary step to bringing linux into the mainstream. (2) in means that manufacturers must be getting requests for this stuff, and it will change procurement choices.
The moon spins about it's polls relative to the sun, but does not spin about its axis relative to the Earth. So the moon has an approximately 29.5 day long "moon day." As such, if you sit in one spot for 29.5 days, you will see one sun rise and one sun set.
The moon is in the magnetosphere's tail when it is "behind" the Earth (relative to the sun), and it is the solar wind that carries out the magnetic field. During this time, the moon is "sitting" in the area near Earth's shadow (hence, lunar eclipses happens only during a full moon).

If you live in the US, then you sure as heck do get (legal) rights because of a number of those things. However, being young is not one of them.

This and the increased fading of the curtains are the two most often cited reasons Queensland AU does not have DST.

Maybe the ATI drivers crash your MacBook because it has Intel video. ;)

according to WaPo Apple has known about this for quite a while

I don't like quiche, but I don't think I'd be a good one to send either. Does it help that I prefer lattes to coffee?
what the duce does that even mean?
If you are going to do that, get it right. It's, "Hello, 2008? this is 1991, we want our joke back."

One question might be, with all the java hype of being able to write once and run anywhere, why wouldn't they buy into the universal binary format?
I was just thinking that I have no idea what Sun even sells anymore.
why have a door that has to be closed at all times?
