David Hoyle: 'It's not fair for any government unit to compete with private enterprise,' -
But its not fair that private enterprises are not delivering internet access at reasonable prices (otherwise local governments wouldn't dream of getting into providing broadband).
* In December 2009, Ari Blinder proved that P is not equal to NP
* In April 2010, Lizhi Du proved that P=NP
* In May 2010, Changlin Wan proved that P=NP
* In June 2010, Carlos Barron-Romero established P=NP
* In July 2010, Mikhail Katkov established P=NP

It's a really difficult problem! It's a real hurdle in the field!
When you write, "most people have been operating on the assumption that P != NP already," that is actually out of pure desperation, and would fit well within having "the semblance of being scientific, but are missing 'a kind of scientific integrity, a principle of scientific thought that corresponds to a kind of utter honesty'", (see Feynman, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_cult_science)
Actually "Type this text" is not that easy to read -- the usual problem with CAPTCHA development is finding that balance; when you can't use the same picture over and over again, it'll be difficult, I think.
Just working on an online Rock Paper Scissors game.... I didn't want to get into javascript before sorting everything out without it. But everything seems to work fine, just by using
META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="3/...poll-url"
So I think I can keep javascript out of the game code

Sounds good!
What's the ratio of jpeg file size to how many encrypted payload?
Or, the other way around, to encrypt+hide 1 MB how many
MB of jpegs would be needed?
(I am guessing that you are saying the ratio is less than 1 to 8)
Also did you look at audio files?

Getting confused here. Is it causation or correlation? Does incompetent imply open?
Stephan
Sounds like you do need a lawyer! Also sounds like it's urgent. Good luck! - Stephan

Don't forget: you can make predictions at http://embargolink.com/ and have them made public in the future.

One million dollars may not turn out to be that much when you add up the hours.

How do you like the one at http://stephansmap.org/sign_up
Sounds like a good idea. You still have to swap out the background photo though.
-> Bicycle ride captcha, where photos are taken from the video of the ride
You wrote, "There is more than enough written and audio samples that the world would love to see OCR'ed." -- Where do you get those?
Word / Excel is also definitely easier to teach, and they're probably doing a bad job even at that.
You want to try out embargolink next time ?
Is Google Buzz next to go ?
I don't think email is reliable enough for a change like this.
Stephan
I think your analysis starts a bit too far down the story.
Doesn't the problem start with MS and their Internet Explorer strategy, or people who trust them to deliver something usable?
Stephan
Yes, why does it need so much testing? Why is there any issue at all? Why is it so dddddangerous?
That is soooo sad.
Stephan
Sad that something which appears so trivial turns out to be expensive.
Stephan
I thought it was RAM
Take a look at http://hyperestraier.sourceforge.net/ ... there might be something newer by the same author, Mikio Hirabayashi
Extracting the text from whatever files you have would be a separate step.
I think you should be asking artists, writers, musicians, not geeks

There's an article at wikipedia about the simpler problem (no Tuesday confusion). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boy_or_Girl_paradox
What is most annoying in all of these discussions is the (seemingly automatic) passing over of the possibility of identical twins.

We'll get there. Please try again.
