Ken Thomposn built Gravity B as a constrained version of Gravity BCPL. Once K&R got their hands on the technology and added a type system, they were ready to launch Gravity C. Gravity C++ soon followed in an attempt to incorporate Quantum Mechanics.
A perfect SuperString implementation has yet to be added to the language, although many incompatable approximations exist.
As we know from recent/. articles, there is much talk about Gravity D; hopefully it will have some nice black-hole garbage collection.
I had a conversation about this very topic this afternoon. I even uttered the phrase, "Thank God black holes have no hair!" I'm glad I didn't bet on it.
On a side note, what would be a good bet for physics today? "I'll bet you the Google cache..."
And remember, not only am I president of the hair club for black holes, I'm also a client.
Software publishers in Thailand have begun to realize the huge popularity of pirated software in Thailand: the extreme price differential. You might be able to sell $100 software elsewhere, but when you are selling the $100 software a few feet away from someone selling a pirated copy for $5, what is the rational consumer going to do?
Video game manufactures now produce Thai versions of games, complete with a Thai installation manual and even Thai ingame instructions, for only a a few dollars more than the street price of a pirated version.
If someone isn't willing to pay 20 times more for the real version, perhaps they're willing to pay only 3 times more.
Disclaimer: I was an American who I lived in Thailand for five years. Has anyone else gone shopping at Panthip Plaza?
I hate programs that get stuck in infinite loops. Now, with this software, I'll just scan for these pieces of malware, and stop them from being sent over the network.
As my philosphy professor put it, "The world would have ended if the Red Sox and Cubs had won their respective pennants. If they were to play against each other in the world series, God couldn't have let either team win."

"Yes, I'm from the Sooner State, I tell them -- land of wheat fields, Indian reservations, TV evangelists, and country music; and who could forget the setting of Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma: 'O-o-o-oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain.'
A state shaped like a kitchen utensil, as if the founders who drew the boundary lines had consigned it to serve as a perpetual building block of the Southwest, an essential part of the meal that no one sees, all glamour and strength hidden from view, what remains on the stove after servers carry away entrees on fancy china plates and lace napkins -- a part of the United States that everyone knows instinctively, but which few can place on a map."
By the way, there are more than 700 National Merit/Achievement/Hispanic Scholars at the University of Oklahoma. How does your state university compare?

And how do you simulate this ?
I'd rather have advertisers learn what makes advertising entertaining to watch than have them try to strong-arm TiVo into forcing me to watch ads.

For the first problem, the sum of each row and column is 10.
For the second problem, the sum of each row, column, white region, and gray region is 28.
Interesting. I had no idea that our thirty-third president was some kind of spacefaring cyborg.
I now wish I stayed awake in American history class.
Step 1: Assume Math is a sport.
Step 2: If Math is a sport, all Math nerds are athletes.
Step 3: All atheletes are jocks (remember high school?).
Step 4: All jocks beat up math nerds (again, re: high school).
Conclusion: All Math nerds beat up math nerds.
But: I am a math nerd, and have never beaten anyone up (including myself or any another math nerd).
This is a contradiction.
Ergo, Math isn't a sport.

There is a "Google Worshipers" group on Orkut.
Join and embrace your inner Google!
Isn't something, by definition, the property of its owner? I guess the question is "Who is the owner -- the subscriber, or the provider?"
If our Internet is not delivered within thirty minutes, do we get it for free?
It's not just a matter of personal use; the majority of software used by Thai businesses is pirated.
