No, what you do is licence the CAD files along with the rights to the brandname from the car makers... This can then be edited down to whatever level of detail you can support.
How will you prevent people using it as a remote harddrive? By enforcing a quota? What if, say, I got a friend to email me 10 ISOs, split into 15meg chunks(yes, I realise this would be about 500 emails). Would you have a word?
has 50000 'neurons'. Does Steve Grand really think he'll approach mammalian intelligence with so few? I agree strongly with him giving Lucy a rich environment, but maybe he should be looking at using something like FPGAs to get more neurons on board for a reasonable cost. That's what Hugo de Garis is doing, and he had much more ambitious plans. The company he was working for failed though, so I don't know whether he's still making progress in actual building of AI. Anyone?
I live in the UK. Find me a good laptop to buy for my university course next year without Windows XP in some flavour preinstalled. Explain to me why I should pay around 100 more for the privilege of an operating system I will use roughly 5% of the time and wouldn't miss.
It is because of this I am considering building my own easily stealable desktop and buying a PDA for note taking.
Those who think that freedom of speech is great, and all, but they don't want child porn on their computer, think of this:
By the most sensible definition of location of data, the child porn is not on your computer.
What you have on your computer is indistinguishable by all known statistical tests from random noise. The sum of this pseudo-random data on all nodes, viewed in a particular way, i.e. through a suitable client, is the Freenet network. The child porn is there, all right - if you're sick enough to seek it out. But the nature of Freenet means that no mapping can be found between data in it, and encrypted data on nodes. That's the whole point. So why worry? If there was a scheme by which you mailed your hard drive to some island and they added it to a pool of storage anyone could access, would you have the same qualms about your disk being possibly contaminated?
Neutrinos do oscillate into other neutrinos, don't they? (http://supernova.lbl.gov/~evlinder/umass/neu.html) And that means they must have a (small) rest mass. This doesn't make up the missing matter entirely, but I think the figure is 20%.

"There Are Infinitely Many Prime Twins" is the title of the paper.
How can you retain ownership? It's not like you could call the police if someone trespassed.

Electrons can tunnel across a gate: can variables like spin do the same thing? If so, that's another barrier.

Anyone heard of superoptimization? As in, automatic analysis of running code to reduce branches?
