It is called a Faraday Cage and it works very well at blocking RF signals. Pix....
I helped assemble one many years ago. There was an FM radio inside the cage that would receive the local campus station quite well...until the cage door was closed, then would just hiss.
Docstrings are what you *INTENDED* a block of code to do; and the code itself as what you *ACTUALLY* did. Normally the two should match, and when they don't....
From the article, it seems this is an energy positive process:
The energy stored in xylose splits water molecules, yielding high-purity hydrogen that can be directly utilized by proton-exchange membrane fuel cells. Even more appealing, this reaction occurs at low temperatures, generating hydrogen energy that is greater than the chemical energy stored in xylose and the polyphosphate. This results in an energy efficiency of more than 100 percent â" a net energy gain. That means that low-temperature waste heat can be used to produce high-quality chemical energy hydrogen for the first time. Other processes that convert sugar into biofuels such as ethanol and butanol always have energy efficiencies of less than 100 percent, resulting in an energy penalty.
Also it is suited for use in a fuel cell. One possible automotive implementation might be: a slurry of plant matter + enzymes => hydrogen + fuel cell => electricity => electric motors. This would avoid the hydrogen storage issues and provide an easily stored (i.e. slurry) energy source.
Who's to say it would not be capable of cracking WEP, etc. to get access to encrypted APs? It seems that the encryption on many APs is (reasonably) crackable these days.
I have always wondered why IBM went shopping for an outside source to provide the OS for their new PCs? It wasn't like IBM didn't have tons of in-house OS expertise already.

Since the computer is *new* billions, if not trillions of times a second, then software doesn't make it unique.
billions a second == 1e9 per second == 1GHz
trillions a second == 1e12 per second = 1THz
I am pretty sure there are NO general purpose computers operating at anywhere near 1THz.
On one hand this is absolutely morbid...but he would have probably loved it!

Hmm....
THIS is how I want to be when I am 90!
These wave gliders are surprisingly fast: 0.4 to 2.0 knots!

Good luck with that....
Really ROTFLOL!!!
This is one of the BEST comments I have seen in a long time!
One person choosing not to fly is a small statement.
One person stripping naked in an airport makes a much bigger statement.

Wow! That is almost exactly 100km!
Burkas for *EVERYONE* !!!

Did anyone else notice that the article with the images has an incorrect definition of imaginary numbers (i.e. says i=sqrt(1) instead of i=sqrt(-1) ).
linky...
Folks, it doesn't get any more informative than this! Straight from the source....

Does anyone have the backstory?
