....to your question.Markov Process is
a stochastic process in which the future distribution of a variable depends only on the variable's current value. Stock prices are widely assumed to follow a Markov process.So a Markovian analysis of Asimov's model might very well support his claims.who knows?

..would it make me super intelligent?I would be flattered,but I ain't taking the byte:
I wonder how many ways you could arrive at the solution to the problem posed here:
For example, trying to describe how a superintelligent person figures out the next letter in the sequence "O T T F F S S", he advises people to think hard: "Persistence alone will now bring its reward, and eventually a thought occurs to him."
1.The immediate thought that occured to me was it was either 'days of the week'/months of the year.
Within 30 seconds,I could figure out that it must stand for the numbers...One,Two,Three,Four....Eight would continue the sequence...
2.What would really make me super intelligent is to find an alternative fittable pattern that satisfies the criteria.This would not only take the interviewer by surprize but also conclusively prove that I have too much time on my hands..
....Or the author's own thought process chugging up ssooo much space?
Anywayz,here'z my take on the issue.
1.I don't subscribe to the 'ask puzzles-judge programming skills-will hire' approach.Sure,it might have worked for microsoft,but microsoft is anywayz hiring from the top schools(If Ballmer is interested in a kid from Ivy league schools,he need'nt think for 15 seconds before hiring him!The fact that he is in the Ivy school is proof enough that he must have 'somthing'in that brain of his!.True..not ALL Ivy leaguers are brainy,but the reputation is good enuff)
2.What might work for Microsoft may not at all work for any other company/profession.
3.Has anyone correlated how other big tech companies base their hiring process?Now,that would be an interesting read and would give a lot more information.
4.I will skip reading this book precisely for the above reasons
NetFlix does'nt seem like a very viable business option,especially when there are umpteen Blockbuster/Hollywood Videos abounding in your neighbourhood.I would like to know how much of a success is this netflix thing?

If u r in Schaumburg,IL,check out the Schaumburg District Library,Schaumburg Library.
They have a great collection of videos/DVD including the latest ones.
....Taco Bell has already perfected this technology....Eat their bean burritos(small pellet sized mashy burritos)and 'instantaneously' produce 'natural gas'.....

New Yorkers should especially empathise with what's happening here--Is it funny when I talk about 7/11?
If there is anybody who needs to be commended at this time,It has to be that ordinary Brave Baghdadi citizen,the Common Man.

...Are you implying that Japan and Germany rose from the ashes of World War II Because USA helped them?If "bombing" Hiroshima and Nagasaki(remember,the war was almost over even without dropping those bombs in the first place!),is what u say 'helping' to rebuild the nation,then I agree.
It is morally wrong and totally insulting to attribute the prosperity,perseverance and resoluteness of post war Japan and Germany to America.
I for one,hope that you stop making such insane statements to justify this war(We are going to 'rebuild' Iraq.But in order to do that,we need to 'destroy' it,right?)
...but,what does the reviewer mean when he says,
"the widow sashes were rotted away"
Slashdot readers need to know,bcoz we cannot tolerate 'slepping' mistakes:-)!

Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) is a new language paradigm proposed for cleanly modularizing the crosscutting structure of concerns such as exception handling, synchronization, performance optimizations, and r esource sharing,that are usually difficult to express cleanly in source code using existing programming techniques.
AOP can control such code tangling and make the underlying concerns more apparent, making programs easier to develop and maintain. In aspect-oriented programs, the basic program unit is an aspect. An aspect with its encapsulation of state with associated advice, introductions, and methods (operations) is a significantly different abstraction in comparison to the procedure units within procedural programs or class units within object-oriented programs. The inclusion of join points in an aspect further complicates the static and dynamic relations between aspects and classes

..A total waste of words.This,in essence,is what I sifted from the article:
Geeks===non-conformant
Geeks==losers
Geeks are a microcosm of the real world attitudes,while the non-geeks are blissfully ignorant.
Peer pressure leads to do what we do.
Just as a Geek wants to be a futbol player,
A futbol player aspires to be a geek.
So,there is no such thing as a geek===loser and futbol player===winner!
