I live in Hong Kong so maybe I could chime in. Hong Kong and the rest of the mainland China is running two system, having different jurisdiction and law. Factories were moving to Guangdong province (mainland China), where is just 100 mile anyway, anyway regardless of the law because of the cheaper labor cost (around 5 to 10 times).
Plus, factories moved from Hong Kong to Guangdong is just accounted for a small percentage, compare to the whole mainland China. Perspective: Hong Kong population: 7 millions. China population: 12 billions.
Maybe mainland China have some similar environmental protection law, but mostly they could get away by bribing the officials.
Same for NFC and mag-strip. Access to audio maybe easier than NFC signal, but it's still "open" to user. Same for SSL...it's all in-band and accessible. Last time I read a NFC related spec, a asymmetric encryption/PKI is employed.
If phone company run the signal in-band today with the signal signed with PKI, etc etc, it's just as secure as running it out-of-band. It's just we didn't have the technology to do that efficiently a few decades ago.
Maybe someone read the TFA could chime in. The TFS mentioned unified address space, but not necessarily unified memory access right? it could be just another virtual memory paging mechanism....
It's more like a grounded-airplane, or plane-on-a-rail.
mag-lev is mag-lev not only because it use mag to keep things on rail, but it's the propulsion source. Now that "train" thing is going to use turbo fan engine as the propulsion source, not wheel nor mag. So...hey it's really an airplane
Recall me my colleague who can't even keep his code acceptable format (like non 4 spaces in a 4-space indentation source file, or wrong indentation)...not once, but every 4 times of his commits...sigh.
Setting up tunneling behind those AP/Gateway router without explicit support is not easy. 6in4 tunneling - have to setup the WAN IP correctly, rinse and repeat for every computer behind. 6to4 would instantly work (maybe slow at start..but if ISP setup 192.0.2.42 gateway nearby) but also requires router (those who had WAN IP participation. Last but not least - native IPv6 routing, also involve those little boxes...
Just hopes more IPv6 capable AP router show up on the market sooner. Then the data
China forced all foreign willing to take a piece of cake in China to form with China's company. Not just train, but all the automobile players in China...
People couldn't figure that out that China is "learning" the technology along the way? Very much similar to Japan back in 50's I guess?
Here in Beijing has a lot of trolley bus too. But they have to slow down to 10mph when crossing cable intersection or a switch, and most of them are in the road intersection...which blocks all the traffic behind.
Plus, you can't have too many bus running on the street, because apparently they can't overtake each other! Imagine in busy road section where there are 4 lanes filled with vehicles and 1.5 lanes of traffic are buses.
And I also wonder if it will interfere with double decker operation.
Lastly, I don't think the buses are doing regenerative brake yet. Maybe it's just not cost effective?
Why is it impressive that a smaller solid state drive performs as well as a standard size one? What does the size have to do with anything relating to these performance benchmarks?
What I hate most with the pure touch screen phone is that it's lack of tactile feedback, say the bumps on the "5" key. Imagine if the button, virtual keyboard all could have texture, it would be much easier to use, touch typing on iPad would be possible.
I RTFA and the video. It's sounds easier to upgrade then building subway. In the video, the presenter said either rail on the level could be embedded (like light rail) to save energy, or have the bus run on wheel and follow solid white line painted on the road.
Energy are solved when the bus travels under the charge poles attached to light poles, as well as charging the super-capacitor at each station (BTW they are running super-capacitor bus in the Expo, Shanghai).
I can read Chinese...well I mean I am a Chinese that RTA and let me do the translation for you. Their answer is to have traffic light system that will allow the bus to turn in the intersection while stopping traffic that will be going straight through. Also as you can see in the simulation, there are 4 lanes (In fact a lot of major local roads in Beijing are 4 lanes per direction, so does the beltway).
I wonder if you want to change lane from the inner two to the outer two...you gotta make the decision fast before the bus come!
This is what I have heard - it's not that 32-bit can't do PAE (as you mentioned, in Server SKU it support up to 64GB), but drivers for client 32-bit SKU are usually written are tested for PAE, which means more bluescreen if you insist doing so.
Let's teach programmers about char != byte and unicode is not always represented in 2 bytes (not even UTF-16)... before we talked about date and name right.
Who will hold it at 12 inches? It's so close and focusing at there for more than a minute makes my eyes painful. I am using my smartphone at 18-20 inches range.
I bet those holding at 12 are those without 20/20 eyesights, and neglect to wear a matching glasses.
I have thought of this for a very long time....but never have time to get my hand dirty to implement. It goes like this: 1. Pair with a few bluetooth devices. (hand free, or laptop, or another cell phone...) 2. A software that monitor the signal of the devices, or Wifi 3. If all or predefined set of the devices go offline longer than the predefined timeout, nuke the device. (Say it would never trigger if it see your home/office wifi, then when you are outside it has to be paired with the bluetooth hand free to prevent being triggered)
Depends if the officer take the battery out quick enough...or how it will be treated in the lab. But at least this is more effective against thief. Instead of nuking the device, it could be programmed to do something like SOUND loudly so you could recover it before the thief runs away, or it could turn the phone into recording mode, taking pictures, audio, geolocation, phone home...

Now I hope when I watch a 3D movie, the focus of the picture follows what my eyes are focusing! That would makes 3D movie much more enjoyable.

Honestly! I work for mainland chinese clients, and all their desktops are XP + IE6, and Servers are 2003.

Fiber endoscopes? Isn't that what we have for a decade if not a few...
It's about 1cm....next time when you do a cystoscopy you will know what I mean.
And i'll tell my boss, i might not be able to answer because i'm at indoor.
Oops. I mean 6to4 gateway at 192.88.99.1.
99% of them will have to throw away.

Ask a woman and they might be able to tell...
Now I would like to repeat the experiment and see how it goes with sunglasses put on.
I am surprised too!
and that's fantastic.
What I hate most with the pure touch screen phone is that it's lack of tactile feedback, say the bumps on the "5" key. Imagine if the button, virtual keyboard all could have texture, it would be much easier to use, touch typing on iPad would be possible.
What's needed to be done is installing power generation (preferably runs on top of #97 gasoline) for extra electricity!
Now the equation is balanced, isn't it?
And this is so essential to mainland user like me!...or else how you think the facebook app is going to work?

Pure technical reason - short answer: nope.

Get a Wifi enabled picture frame is more easy to route the VGA/DVI/Display port cables for more than a few meters/feets long, * 12 times.
