let's kill Hollywood because SOPA wouldn't let us put a Mad Men episode on Tumblr.
What were you smoking when you heard "Let's kill Hollywood, there is plenty of money on their market that they are incapable of getting, and we can get it." and "SOPA is a threat to any legitimate site on the Internet, and a threat to political speech", mix the two, and came out with that phrase above?
Those researchers found that there is a virus that is hightly contagious and deadly. Also, this virus is likely* to be created at Nature, so it is interesting by itself. The researchers thus want to know how this specific virus behave, not some generic fast spreading or some generic lethal variation of it.
* For suficiently unlikely values of "likely". It is likely enough to make people afraid, but just because the result will be a lethal pandemic. If it was something less damaging, the same probability wouldn't be considered "likely".
How many different proteins you must put in a vaccine before it stops a kind of Influenza? If that number is low, we probably can make a vaccine that is close enough to whatever evolves at nature, if it is hight, we can't.
The problem is, it is going to be expensive, and it will hurt a few people. There is no other way to protect the population.
It is simpler in linear algebra. I guess that is the theory where DFT and FFT are simpler. So if you want to understand them, read a book about linear algebra, and read about the FFT again.
Ok, I think I correctly parsed (and error corrected) this.
You are saying that the GP shouldn't send his data encrypted through Mega Upload servers because Mega Upload staff can get the keys by comming to his house and breaking his knees?
Well, I have news for you. They can get the original files the same way, even if they don't pass through their servers.
Will that certification be meaningless to not create any kind of trouble, and yet obscure enough for potential clients not discovering it is meaningless?
Maintence is part of making sure the plane can fly. That's right.
But upgrades are only required if they'll lead to an increase in safety (and that increase is neeed at the first place). Just changing your GPS receivers won't.
That's the begining of the implementation of that "Right to Read" stuff. We tought it was averted at the 90's, but it was just delayed.
One thing is certain, if this thing goes forward (what is not granted yet) the organization (company, country, whatever) that somehow avoids Microsoft will have a huge competitive edge.
Most of the people that are on the Internet since the 90's aren't computer iliterated. Also, you don't know what you are missing by not looking into it, Yahoo's UI is way better than Google's.
I've been moving my email from Yahoo since the failed partneship with Microsoft, but there is no way I'll put anything important on Gmail.
From the MS point of view, they just backstabed a company without even making a partneship with it. That must be a new record for them, they just needed Yahoo to say "I agree".
First, the Earth isn't a sphere. It also isn't an elipsoid.
Second, how many rows will be on that database? We normaly use databases when we have a non-trivial amount of data, so that is probably what he have. Now that you know how to calculate distances (you don't, but let's pretend you do), how do you efficiently search for rows that are within 1000km of any random point?
Third, why would his developers reinvent a square weel when there are perfectly good circular ones available at the internet for free?
Changing "people are mad at us, and won't trust us unless we evidence that we changed" into "see? People care about us" well... Could get any name you want:)
And then tht AI will finish all fossil fuels availabe, polute every square meter of land and sea, destroy all life on Earth, and get out of this rock to repeat it all through the galaxy. How can it look at us as a virus?
But I bet both of us are wrong (except for this bet and this disclaimer, that are right).

If they want it all to be all by themselves, no I don't think that is abusive. So, we extinguish copyrights and rely on contracts for now on?
Evolution selects the populations that invest on vaccines.
I bet the military aren't that interested on something that is also easy to pass and effective at taking out their own population.
Different situation here.

The researchers thus want to know how this specific virus behave, not some generic fast spreading or some generic lethal variation of it.

He can walk out of it with some data too, and manufacture the virus later.
I really don't know about that...

They'll stop when they find a problem. That's how science works.
The relevant fact here is how terminal velocity relates to volume.
And, of course, all of those use PostGIS at the back end.
There are a few problem with your approach.
First, the Earth isn't a sphere. It also isn't an elipsoid.

Hey, I didn't know about GeoDjango. Thanks a lot for the pointer.
Besides functional problems, converting encodings can be quite slow. Specialy so if you are using Microsoft's converters.
Changing "people are mad at us, and won't trust us unless we evidence that we changed" into "see? People care about us" well... Could get any name you want :)
Sorry, but an AI killing us does not solve the Fermi paradox.
And then tht AI will finish all fossil fuels availabe, polute every square meter of land and sea, destroy all life on Earth, and get out of this rock to repeat it all through the galaxy. How can it look at us as a virus?
But I bet both of us are wrong (except for this bet and this disclaimer, that are right).
I'd be happy if I knew that it would be only there.
Ok, other places have rocks too. It wil be just there.
How do you want me to belive you know something about the future if you are not even a futurologist yet?
