My experience is that the exact opposite is true. If you look at the papers that receive most citations in a researcher's profile, it's usually the ones that are longer, have many keywords in them and thus receive more hits from search engines.
Yahoo Japan seems to be completely independent from Yahoo! US. It is now owned by Softbank (the country's 2nd largest telephone provider and majority stockholder in Sprint). I wonder what they're going to do.
You need windows for a gozillion different reasons but the most important is to shatter them and escape when the door is stuck/deformed after an accident. Robot cars will not get in accidents a lot, but when they do, you'll want to get out somehow.
The drones will also be able to track the recipient even while walking or running down the street and launch the package with a trajectory aimed to the recipients head. Upon successful impact the drone will produce a *Boom! Headshot!!* sound effect. Amazon officials refused to comment on the necessity of this delivery mode.
... ain't got shit on SpaceX. I always thought that on Hollywood they overdo it with explosions but if I saw this in a Hollywood movie I'd be like "Come on...Really? would the real rocket explode that violently? ". I stand corrected.
In the original Greek olympics there were only sports where the definition of victory/defeat was crystal clear (only track and field sports basically). The modern version of the olympics is the one with the judges, and which allows room for ambiguity.
Ireland must extradite those servers to be prosecuted in the U.S.!! We must put international mechanisms in place to make that possible. Also a server should be able to hide in a foreign embassy to avoid extradition, and seek asylum.
What many people don't know is that over the 50 years of the Shinkansen, there has never had a fatality due to derailment or collision which is an impressive safety record considering the frequent earthquakes and typhoons in Japan (there has been a single fatality by the doors closing on a passenger trying to catch the train). Younger high-speed rail services on other countries already count fatalities.
Of course Victorian clerks stood and moved around a lot more. They had to go bring the file from the file cabinet or go refill their Ink etc. Go light the candles on the chandelier etc. There was a bunch of different things to be done away from the desk so perhaps someone who moved around so much would consume more energy if he actually sat.
I'm surprised by people who see this and immediately think terminators and war machines. Why is it that when I saw this I thought "land transport". I imagine one of those things carrying me from home to work every day, assuming I'm sitting in an actuated capsule that compensates for the galloping. Until some issues are figured out, electric cars and high-speed rail will do the trick, but I think this is the future for land transport. Unlike electric cars these babies can JUMP at crossings thus eliminating the need to slow down or stop.
Virtual communities like open source software groups or other virtual organizations have an inherent problem with leadership. The main reason is that it's not so easy for somebody to lead unless others see him talk in person. Charismatic leaders build consensus by convincing others partly because they present strong arguments, but also because people like to watch them talk as they are effective public speakers and often of above average looks.
In a virtual community most of that body language, charisma and good looks disappears in asynchronous, e-mail based communication. So for a person to lead a virtual community effectively, he has to be super knowledgeable on the subject and have lots credit to his name. Like Linus does or.. like.. Vint Cerf or, dunno some other famous tech person.
He locked himself in a cave for 7 years to build this. Somebody should have told him that apps like these nowadays have a web based front-end. Doh! Back in the cave for another 7 years to make it web-based!
ps. I'm only kidding, kudos to him for making a very feature rich app and releasing it open-source.

You might be joking but I wouldn't be surprised if there's pre-election period motivation for this story :/

32MB ought to be enough for anybody...

This afternoon I chased away a guy getting ready to put ad pamphlets in every single mailbox in my building. Real life AdBlock for the win! :)

Just a thought but maybe they are losing to the Asus Xtion. That is a possible explanation.
I can think of very few things that upset me more than domain squatters. Up there with child molesters and corrupt politicians.

I've always been surprised by the use of private security agencies to screen passengers.
You were surprised? Who should be doing it instead? Better private security than police/military with huge automatic assault rifles if you ask me.

Great :) Now can you please figure out using math who to live with?:)

So ..yeah, it's hard.

"The New York Times reported Friday, citing American officials and corporate security experts"
Super reliable sources! Looks like the government is preparing a move to IRAN and the propaganda machine is setting the stage.
