Let's see, apt-get install kernel-bla bla and then there's emerge sys-kernel/development-sources so if we fill in the bla bla, gentoo's the shortest.
But wait I think there's also emerge gentoo-sources-dev
Ok, given, a little towards the alarmist reaction, but then one thought strikes me, what effect will this increase in equatorial size have on the ocean tides?
Tides are something we experience everyday, and an increase or decrease in volume will be felt. I don't know, I'm probably missing the fundamental concept here, but to me, the port authorities may just start taking note of it soon.
Well, have you actually read the two articles, let's see, which line should I paste...
For these foreigners, the Indian experience is something which they think would add value to their future prospects. "I will put in my India experience when I return to Finland and I will have have an advantage of working abroad which I am sure will help me in my future jobs,"
Most of the recruits are in the senior category of business heads, strategic account managers, client engagement managers, business and domain consultants and architects in age group of 30-50.
But yes, planning on joining the IT industry now is a tough proposition.
Scientist y estimates to to being x Billion years old, and every textbook, news article, journal, documentary, etc states that the universe is x billion years old as if proven fact.
There's your answer, the media must be held responsible for assuming the theory to be true, or at least reporting incorrectly. What about the reader, shouldn't there be certain amount of discretion while going through text of significant importance.
When it comes to science as complex as evaluating the age of the universe, fact remains that more than 90% of the people (layman/passive readers) have no clue as to what the mathematical equations and astronomical observations imply, so one is left with nothing but the stuff mentioned in journals, who's to say what is true?.
The heart of Nemesysco's security-oriented technology is a signal-processing engine that is said to use more than 8,000 algorithms each time it analyzes an incoming voice waveform.
"We work off the frequency range of voice patterns instead of changes in the body
My question is this, if they've never heard the person's voice before, and if the person talks softly like a sissy and one of those algorithms equates it with an attempt at lying...
What if the person has a throat infection?
What if the person's voice is weird from the very beginning?
The most important point is this, terrorists, more importantly, suicide terrorists are brainwashed zombies, and are very confident liars, the only one to suffer will be the innocent passenger.
Just because Bush unveiled grandiose plans for NASA, and they took note of it and adjusted a few of their plans (which in retrospect were due for a change anyway) does not mean other space agencies will follow suit.
The reaction given to Bush's plans by other nations have been circumspect, lets see where this all goes after the elections are over.
Who is forcing the web site to provide the content free of charge? I'm not. They should start a pay-subscription service if they don't want to give the content away.
They should NOT trick users into downloading large advertising content while hiding behind the premise that they have bills to pay.
True, but the person who created the site didn't ask you to visit either. When you look at the history of the internet, 'content' was essentially free, which is why the net has grown so much.
Then again, the earlier content was academic in nature, but when the interent became more than just a tool for scientists to communicate observations and ideas, some of our low moral spammer folks started taking advantage of it.
I think we have reached a critical juncture, where either corporate activity will destroy the internet, or there'll be a rebellion and parts of the net will remain true to its nature.
Certainly! Earth has been mapped more accurately than you can ever think of. Mars express, 10m, that's nothing compared to 1m resolution russian satellite images.
I love remote sensing!
I will really be surprized if any complex hydrocarbons are found on mars. Fossil fuels, I don't think so, something has to exist before being fossilized.
yet everyone knows that the USA and Australia have grabbed the whole thing..and if anyone doesn't like it, what are they gonna do about it?
Do you know why nobody does anything, it is because Antrartica holds no strategic importance. Scientific, yes, but politically and militarily it is not worth it.
Space on the other hand is a whole different ball game, militarily, it has more strategic importance than any military base on earth.
For example, if a CIA spy is caught in China, it results in a huge political crisis, but there is no reaction to a US spy satellite overlooking Chinese territory. So the job is done without any negative political effect.
The same goes for a Chinese or Russian spy satellite overlooking US territory. Space technology will represent the next arms race.
"In a number of areas scientific data is being generated at enormous rates, creating the need for the automated analysis of the data," said Ross D. King,
So basically it collects hundreds of terabytes of data, then uses certain algorithms to analyze it in an effort to try to spot a trend.
So far so good, but the part where it tries to interpret the data in a more innovative way by creating theories is for me the breakthrough. I can't help but think that credit (if a new theory is discovered) must go to those who wrote the algorithm.
I'm reminded of one of those programs that can simulate a chat-room environment. If a person can get fooled by the AI, does that count as genuine social interaction?
I don't think that online interaction is necessarily social in nature, one does not have to think about consequences and can remain anonymous.
Over here shared connections are predominantly used, as their prices are very cheap and unlike some other schemes available, one can download unlimited number of bytes.
I live in the southern part of the city, and on an average, the prices here are about 700Rs. per month, so about 15$.
However, in the suburbs, the prices are even cheaper, the last I was told, about 350Rs. per month. so about 8$.
But the disadvantage of a shared connection is the slow speed, so in terms of genuine broadband (for Jan 2004, let's define it as...512Kbps, obviously I may be wrong), they lag behind quite a bit.
You couldn't have said it any better, although fighting hypocrisy with hypocrisy will not help in the long run either. We may all be collectively headed toward a brick wall.
If BINA48 or whatever, were that intelligent, then why would it make the mistake of seeking help from a legal system that does not recognize it officially as a sentient being?
If it were that smart, it would have surely taken some other course of action to protect itself. It would most certainly try to bypass the legal system.

As opposed to what's happening now?

Yes, initially I was thinking about yellow phosphorus, but its just white phosphorus with small amounts of red phosphorus in it.
Nice connection infinite93, things just keep getting more interesting.

What sort of name is that?

Well, not quite to the expectations of science fiction authors, but it's a start, and a very promising one.
Just imagine the net reduction of CO2 emissions, also if it's combined with this the mileage will futher increase with even lower emissions.

Thanks for that, I am now as enlightened as Buddha.
Invention, disruption, innovation, improvement
What's interesting is the way they've arranged the words, Invention:disruption, innovation:improvement.
Quantum computing isn't about shrinking various computer peripherals, for all you know monitor size may increase to accommodate higher resolutions.
