I mean...yes, I'm sure it would have some desensitizing factor, but is that really a good thing?
It's not the desensitizing factor, but rather the acceptance/understand factor. It would be a dissapointing tragedy of the worst kind indeed were you not able to, over the course of your life, eventually overcome and have sovereign dominion over your own body and mind.
With 10 messages (after automatic spam detection) humans are 100% accurate.
This is not a statistically correct statement. The 99.84% probability applies no matter how small or large the sample space. Well, even that depends upon how complex your logic is, nevertheless, the central maxim of experimentation is elimination and control. This necessarily implies simplicity, or rather requires as much simplicification as your boundary values and intuitive parameters allow while yet permiting a determinable, meaningful conclusion or result.
No rancor directed at evilmrhenry, but the world would benefit from a regularization of statistical pedagogy in education with particular emphasis on the mathematical rigor from which the science draws all its formal reason. Granted not all courses in statistics are properly couched in the mathematics department, but statistics is from postulates to grotesque, abstract theorems a pure mathematical construct.
Let's see here, Knuth delivered his historical TeX speech at the AMS somewhereabouts in the early 1980's and nothing has really come close to supplanting his brain progeny since then. It runs in ${your favorite text editor} and ${your favorite shell}, can be invoked from a script to perform arbitrarily complex formatting or some other action, is extensible, portable, and utterly simple and easy to learn.
HTML like languages of necessity are alike powerful and simple in the style of TeX based systems, but use quite gregarious markup, and as for spreadsheets, use ROOT, PAW, or vanilla LAPACK.
And the worst of it is the minion ad banners of this advertising scheme will eventually start paying for OSDN sponsered pages. 6 more months of Microsoft ads on Slashdot...
What does it really matter. A dozen or so stories, or rather the pointers thereof, queue through the front page daily. There is a high flux of info. People make mistakes. That CmdrTaco has acknowledged his mistake immediately unmittigated is at least professional and something much more valuable than apathetic news for money reporting.
Does that mean when I download the kernel from kernel.org that kernel.org is uploading the kernel to my machine, or do the terms only apply to the instigator of the transaction? Then again, in that sense, I've never actually had someone upload data to my box without my knowledge or sanction, since mozilla blocks all those recalcitrant popups.
Redhat does NOT provide a product. They provide software configuration and management services. Anybody who wants can download Redhat and use it without paying Redhat for service. For a small consulting business run by Joe Hacker this is ideal. However, if you are a large, international, corporation, especially one not natively disposed to software, you are crazy not to buy Redhat's service.
because of this, and because I'm also a little impatient for them to become commodity. At least ten dollars is all this poor college student can spare.:)
Perhaps LA county is bought and owned by wealthy wanton celebrities.
Riiight. Like this will replace Jessye Norman.

Synthesized Singers
·
· Score: 1
The talent and skill of an accomplished singer like Callas or Vickers is not likely to be matchable or then manipulatable by your savvy tech dude at his computer console. There are infinite varieties of color and phrasing and style possible, only select combinations in unique contexts are tasteful or even plausible. Music so far defies being mapped into a synthetic ADC despite the very mechanical nature of instruments. The human voice is all the more complex of a problem. No, music is not so discreet as the digital chess, and is far from being mastered by Man's Meta-Thinking, to say nothing of the rigor and training vested in any least professional musician, and I mean genuine musician, not those plugged-in puppets whose stuff is endlessly refined and perfected during mix. Perhaps this kind of thing can however can be used to replace the voices of people who determine to destroy their voice by belting. Ughh.
Your signature offends me, but truly a great understanding of the ideas of freedom and free software. I suppose I say that because it is so close to my own theory, but I believe it. An elegant reduction of the megabytes of FSF philosophy .
You let me know when you can trace EVERY particle back to the Big-Bang (even if it is just the life of some randomly pickable particle X). If you can do that, then you already have a TOE, and I want to know what it is.
I find it more of an ironic comedy which has quickly become a pastime at least for me living in Provo, UT where many of the local newspapers are at least partially pro SCO. I have nightmares of Darrel McBride breaking in at night and confiscating my beloved Linux box, or worse, irrevocably installing SCO. The OS online newspaper SCO rebuttals are good to lift one's spirit, at least in the land of these charlatans where deception reigns. I have also directed some of my Windows-based friends to some of the more calm and deliberate pieces defrauding the deceptions.
That is true, nevertheless the Salt Lake Tribune is famous for "the Mormons make my life so miserable" diatribe and are giddy to imply lots of stuff against the foolish Mormons. I would never look to the SL Tribune for objective news or journalism. I know because I have lived most of my life in/near SLC.

Yeah, it sounds really happening, better mark this idea for recycling.

Or Rather, switch to Linxu BIOS, which will as likely as Linux itself rapidly vanquish any proper, secretive, software.

What if the box is wrong? What jury will trust its data if it is running a small derivative of windows? :)
Hopefully /. picks up nontechnical readers every day like me:)
Justification enough.
and what they don't tell you is that they are waiting for Richard Stallman to register as number 0.

Mabey they should be renamed the Council Against Citizens for Government Waste
