Why wouldn't the military just turn their encryption keys back on so that they can use it but others get worse data? I do agree that teaching your officers celestial navigation is important, but when shit hits the fan, it will be interesting to see which ones actually retain it and can use it without constant practice.
Something like a Davis VantagePro2 (http://www.davisnet.com/weather/products/weather_product.asp?pnum=06162) weather station has a small panel that measures UV and solar radiation in addition to weather measurements. I think you can also get additional sensors to add to the station and you can get a dongle that lets you speak with the wireless panel via usb-serial. Then, you can write an easy script to log your measurements (the protocol is well defined) and get a real idea of what your roof is capable of. The VantagePro2 is probably overkill for your purposes, but it's a good thread to chase down for options.
I think the key to what was said above was to have wealth distribution of profits created by automation. The only problem with that is that I'm sure the people who created the automation would want their fair share of their creation, unless they were people motivated by more altruistic ideals.
It's not landlocked, and it's connected just like any other state. It's close to the 128 corridor in MA, and hosts a whole bunch of companies (Velcro and Brookstone to name two).
What's your beef with them?
What I found most interesting was the link in the article to opengovernment.org, which I followed on to this project: https://github.com/sunlightlabs/openstates
They provide the screen scrapers which feed the data to the main project. I"m sure that even with the gov't providing data freely there will still need to be formatting transformation required, and some screen scraping needed to get the full picture into some database somewhere.
I'm sure there are other frameworks around that build up scraping/database/analysis applications. Does anyone have any experience with these?
That's the point of the article. The sensors are working fine, but they trigger even when operating the iPhone well within the specified temperatures. In essence, using the iPhone as intended may still void your warranty.
I think there's more to it than that. Hopefully the cost includes America's Army as a Platform. I know military training has been trying to enforce compliance to standards (e.g. SCORM) and Learning Management Systems so they can track who has what training. Something like this can bring it all together, and that cost over 10 years sounds like an excellent investment considering they took the time to proof something out, then extend functionality as opposed to the typical requirements swirl that ends up with programs that never actually come to fruition.

I tried looking my name .dev and for day 1 purchase they want $12,500 for the registration. No thanks!

I think you should be appointed the editor of something like simple.slashdot.org (similar to simple.wikipedia.org). Great summary!

I wonder what happened to that "New Here" guy. I always got a chuckle from them.
Do you sell Progressive Rock?

It's like striking oil on Slashdot!

I'm sorry, this comment is just so awesome. I'm laughing hysterically, thanks!
Wouldn't that scan complete one sky in 6 months? It's kind of strange to report that it will do 1.5 in 9.

Apply for a waiver on those requirements :)
I think that people tend to like their congress rep and senator and blame all the others. I can see that's why people are re-elected.
Someone should post an updated Bible, that makes it meaningful to people of our time. Any takers? I bet they would sell like hotcakes.
They're clearing it out so when Skynet goes online, John Connor will have somewhere to go and lead the rest of us to victory.
Talking into a teapot or a teacup would probably block most of the sound provided you weren't talking very loud.
Maybe they're just using crappy media so that the copy of the DVD doesn't survive? :)
The Logitech G5, for one, comes with a set of weights that you can add to your mouse to suit your needs.
If only real life were more rewarding.
Or, if only virtual life were more sustaining.
Maybe someday one could use a virtual life to pay the bills which keep the machines that feed our bodies running.
I think they both lost :)
How about enforced breakpoints in the game so it's easier to stop a session :)
My problem is time flies by so quickly during a game. Before you know it, you've missed all your meals.
