You said in your other post that you're functionally dumber for learning that Microsoft should be dead. This isn't true. You have built character that will convince an MBA that you speak the truth. Many others have done the same and because of this we see the industry actually taking action to the effect.
It is said that Aristotle knew everything there is to know. Still in thee 80s it was reportedly possible to do the same in the area of IT/CS, but now two decades later even knowing CLI is actually setting the bar very high. I recently met someone who was obviously from the next generation of internet users and he taught me about AutoHotkey, Bookmarklets and Google Chrome. In return I tried to each him about scripting the web with jQuery, using low-level tools like netcat, a bit of *nix, and digital signal processing. He knew audio engineering from the performance art perspective, and he had talent.
I'll cut to the chase. We can not afford to waste talent. Let me re-phrase that; because of the stupid cultural wars that the West has sponsored we do not have the economic margins to let any talent we can find to go untapped. The baby-boomers, who caused all of this shit though their egomania, are about to retire and they are prepared to sacrifice their young if it means a comfortable rotting-away for them. This guy, white rasta hippie who obviously had been fed too much HFCS without his informed consent, comes from an independent culture bred out of places like 4chan and Reddit. They are different from the previous generation just like you are different from the generation preceding your's. What you can do is support them by giving them your precious time and understanding, and not fucking sabotage what little confidence they have left in our species. - They are much better informed than you think.
You don't get a salary for educating the children. You get culture, pride, REAL security, population control, sustainable development... Just what am I listing here! You're a goddamaned idiot, aren't you? Admit it!
If you want to learn something then ask a specific question.
This is the fallacy which causes government inefficiency. In order to know what to ask you need to know what your answer is.
...no one will want to spend that much effort teaching you anything if you can't be bothered to make the effort to teach yourself anything.
Were you home schooled and still inexplicably separated from the rest of society? No? Wait, you're just being too lazy to properly formulate an argument, aren't you?
So far this submission has seen a really disappointing response from the Slashdot crowd. They look like braggarts who do not actually know anything about the subject matter.

A way to allow anyone to submit work units is to have the receiver of the payment decide what that sender computes. The receiver could draw upon projects from many groups and offer a selection of them to the sender, and perhaps even moderate the work unit / Â exchange rate.
You're right. I was assuming scientists would value curing diseases more than they would value millions of Â. Even if that was the case for the vast majority, a small minority would find a way to corrupt a centralized system.
How lone before we substitute that silly block chain with work units from BOINC or Folding@home? Lack of inherit value in the currency was another complaint, wasn't it?
Room temperature superconductor? Really? I doubt somehow.
The article talks about very low power transmissions. At one atom layer thick you could however possibly layer stanene and an appropriate insulator to achieve higher currents. This is in line with what has been observed in the material layering in high-temp superconductors.
They used the Vienna suite for simulation. I have yet to find their experimental observations in the paper.
But seriously, given the track record that 'law enforcement' has with embracing technology this idea is very likely to be abused by organized criminals. However, this time it isn't about identity theft or industrial espionage but rather street-level thugs vs. first-responders.
It could be the corner that we need to turn in order to really face the fallout of the criminal incompetence / vicious exploitation that is the hallmark of current systems. Once the chaos reaches the streets people have no choice but to react.
N8 HPC currently operate Polaris, an SGI High Performance Computing cluster, with 332 compute nodes. Each node has two of the latest Intel Sandy Bridge processors and these nodes have a capacity of 320 GigaFLOPS/second. By using all of the nodes of Polaris together, a peak performance of 110 TeraFLOPS/second. Unlocking this peak performance has been helped by our use of a fast InfiniBand interconnect joining the nodes together.

This story is like giving instructions on how to breathe.
To meditate, observe your breath without controlling it.
Do you think you know anything? You know nothing.
I didn't know that and I have needed that command for 15 years. Thanks, you made this topic worth my time!
I am more than happy to deliver command line information on a silver plate to anyone that needs it.
Hear hear.
Don't let greyface get you down!
So share what you learned! Or are you stupid and ugly!?

Are you going to tell these old fossils about bookmarklets too? =)
mulk - much needed modernization of wget's functionality :color ir_black
qrencode - copy-paste from the desktop to a mobile device, or maintain an airgap
iotop - like htop for IO
history - built into bash, re-issue old commands as !number
pkill - kill programs indiscriminately
youtube-dl - keeps working even though google has almost killed youtube
netstat -lnp - see which program is bound to which port
vim - it won't make sense until you install plugins like spf-13, learn a few key combinations and set
tar -zxvf - you can remember it because the keys are right next to each other
pxz - parallel LZMA compressor
alasamixer - volume control
locate - find files, update the index with updatedb
Looking forwards to see more!
But Bitcoin did receive updates, last I checked.

But 13 is congruent with lunar orbits per year!
That's something worth posting under a pseudonym. Don't be shy.

What the fuck timothy? How many years has it been?
We agreed to Google doing that when signing up. No one has agreed to share their data with the NSA.
Who are they looking at? - That will tell us who is doing the looking.

You can use the Friend/Foe function on Slashdot for that. You'll be surprised how few users are actually trolling here.

So my GPU isn't three times faster. Oh well. Can't win 'em all.
Political ploy?
Noo... what makes you think that?
You really need to get a grip of yourself.
