  1. Parent is not a troll on Gartner Predicts Android Most Popular Mobile OS By 2014 · · Score: 1

    I'm not new here, but I'm sad to see that cognitive arguments such as above are marked troll. Wish I had some mod points to fix this.

    Just a thought, but depending on the size, what if they were interchangeable?

    If that were the case, you could roll in to a refitted petrol station to exchange your battery, and the system can manage with the grid when it juices the batteries up.

    If you had enough batteries in rotation, you could even charge them during low usage periods, but you would still be able to rapidly charge in times of high demand.

    Mate,

    If I had a kid who had a nasty and currently incurable disease, I'd most certainly risk jail, or even death myself to give them a shot. After it gets to the point of death, all bets are off. Seriously. How far would you go for someone you loved?

    In this case, at least it brings some semblence of regulation to an industry that has arisen from an environment born from holier than thou moral beliefs infiltrating politics, rather than hard science.

    and niggers still speak a form of pidgin instead of english

    I'll probably get burned in hell for feeding a troll, but I can't resist.

    Your only language is obviously English, right?

    Well let me point out that it's a "pidgin" mix between German, which was a "pidgin" version of Norse, as well as French, which is basically a "pidgin" version of Latin.

    Therefore, by speaking English you speak a very similar amount of "pidgin" as the delightful people you are referring to.

  16. Is it just me... on Australia Gets Its First Female Prime Minister · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I never voted for K.Rudd in the first place, and I'm quite delighted that he's out especially regarding the mining tax. But what I have real issue with, is that from one day to the next, we have a new Prime Minister that was "voted in". Not by us, but essentially by the unions.

    So who really runs the country?

  19. Re:That's awesome. on Fermilab Experiment Hints At Multiple Higgs Particles · · Score: 1

    At this point in time, I'd question whether they would fund anti matter weapons research. Tactically, do we really need a bigger boom than a nuke? I'd also imagine that anti-matter weapons would leave some nasty side effects hanging around after detonation.

    As to the size of the explosion, it is not a good thing to leave a smoking crater where your enemy used to be. You actually want to kill/turn any resistance, and then acquire resources and spoils of war. Secondly, it would be quite pointless to make a bomb so big that it wipes out the entire planet. Talk about a Pyrric victory.

  21. Re:Bullshit on Quant AI Picks Stocks Better Than Humans · · Score: 1, Redundant

    Yes, and short trading works wonderfully until there is some kind of unforseen defect in the ecosystem that can trigger a wild buying/selling spree.

    Remember that when one of these systems is working by itself, it has a level of complexity, that exponentially grows when completely different systems are attached to the same ecosystem.

    If you can find a programmer that would bet their life on their software not being involved in a substantial crash and destabilisation of the worldwide economy, I can show you a programmer that is either stupid, an insane genius, or a guy that's just had enough and has a death wish.

    Just look at the "fat fingered" crash recently on wall street. Was it 9%? (I'm sure that some kind pedant out there will provide citation for that figure) that was allegedly caused by mistakenly putting b instead of m into the terminal?!?
