Thanks, but force has alread been define in terms of distance and current, we don't need another definition.
But if you can define the strongness of a gravitational field, we are done with the definition of mass.
The grandparent made a good question. The fact that the other measurements can be made by the definition doens't implyes that a measurement can be made by the definition of mass by Plank's or Avogrado's constants.
In fact, this is the reason why those constants have not been already defined. This idea is not recent, I've hearing about that for ears, but nobody could never come out with a practical experiment to define any big mass constant.
No, because one can not chose what he will read from the atom.

Microsoft would never use a modified Kerberos without releasing the documentation if it wasn't a monopolie. And should be oblied by law (yes, justice it too slow) to release thet documentation since it is one.
Well, I know the vocabulary of political philosophy on my own language (and on other two), but yes, I lacked it in english (I'm already trying to fix it).
Not knowing the vocabulary doesn't make me to not understand the government, but you should look for a deeper insight about legitimacy. That would finish that black or white vision.
How about recognizing a moral difference between legitimate, sovereign states and pseudo-states run by dictators and tyrants?
Where did you saw those legitimate, sovereign states? Really, I'd like to know that. All I can see is a collection of states varying from the worse tirany to something that resembles a democracy, but still put most of the power on the hands of a group. I can't see that black and white distinction because I see no white.
Also, the UN is not really a tirany, remember, it's rulled by the coutries representatives. The only difference between it and US executive branch is that Us people don't vote directly on their executive people is that at UN you have far less power, what is expected, because UN is much bigger.
Worse yet, as I undertood, the gay is trusting his magic envelopes to block the man in the middle attacks.

We have knowledge of a few thousand years' temperatures. I don't know the exact metodology people use to get those numbers, and never asked myself about the precision. But I gess that, they being well accepted as they are, their impresion can not be hundreds of times bigger than the mesurement itself.
But you are right, this is not infomation enogh, let's make that, I will check the mesurements precision and you, please, notice that they exist, and show that in thousands of years (people can trace the temperatures since the last ice-age) no change at the tempertature happened at at least two orders of maginitude of the one that happening now.
No, I don't have the links, but they have appeared on last posts about the global warming.
There are some flaws that apparently doesn't come to be noticied here.
First, there is no consensus, just look to this trend and you will see that! But the global warming is a FACT (there is no information of another period of time when the planet heated so much) as is the greenhouse effect. Sure, there is no prof that human emitted gases are heatting the plannet, but the warming started whe the huimanity started to emite bigger volumes of greenhouse gases and is beccaming more intense (the process is fastenning) as we emite more of them.
Eugenics was never a consesus either, just check some unbiased press.
The "if you're not with us, you are against the evironment" dichotomy was never stated, what is been said is that you are not with us AND you are the bigger poluter of the planet and don't seem to be working on it.
And some replicas to other posts:
Bazil, India and China signed the Kyoto treaty (Brazil has also participated very actively on its formulation) but have less severe qoutes, since they pollute less per capta than the develloped countryes and have little participation on the already stablished greenhouse effect. Despite that, at least Brazil and India are working very hard on reducing their emmisions.

This is more like expecting that a deiver knows what the bakes do. Really, there is no need for the user to know how DNS and seach engines works, just to know that a URL is different from a search string.
Of corse, there are users that don't understand that, so a little training is needed, like the training needed to someone to drive, cook or use a TV remote control. There is no way to do software that can be used by everyone with no training at all.
I imagine you are talking about using a bigger chip, with an area just assigned to heat transportation (without transistors). Well, this is not done because increasing chip's size is very expensive (the bigger the chip, the more prone to errors on its manufactoring process). Also, it will have litte impact, because the hotter areas of the chip need to stay toghether for better performance, so gluing a dissipator face to face hith the chip is still more effective.

You didn't point all the importance of Linux in some points:
Scientific apps: Almost all serious scientific apps are written in linux (or Matlab, but no real world app is written in Mathlab, just tests).
Teaching developers...: Open source programs are very important on this issue.
running in places where otherwise licensing costs would be prohibitive: And in places where there are no other OS.
And didn't saw the importance on other fields:
Writing documents: LaTeX is the must used tool for writting, unless you are talking about short memos, for what MS word is really excelent. It is a sad fact that most people don't write more than short memos.
Graphics: You meant 2D graphics, didn't you?
The many tasks where there isn't equivalent software under Linux: I know much more tasks whithout a Windows program capable of doing it than a linux one.
And you forgot the biggest difference: Windows has games, lots of them.
its a mess. numbers are never accurate and its impossible to accurately determine how inaccurate they are!
Statistics is all about doing that. None of the problems you posted varies with the browser peole use. So, if both userbases had the same habits, that would be no problem at all. With different userbase habits, however, they thend to increase the error, but not as much as your poster assume.

But your comment is right, linux share will not increase so fast. We can expect to see it on 10% of the PCs in a short time, but there is no horizont for greater numbers.
