You are assuming the only relevant heat generation is from the exterior of the building. Our bodies generate both heat and humidity constantly. The A/C not only keeps the people cool but mitigates their normal biological output.
Great comment. Except for the huge run-on paragraph; a diagram or mathematical description would be very +1 Informative. Thus another limitation of this discussion board -- the inability to include non-text content. This is the 21st Century after all; even monks had decorative graphics and illustrations on their scrolls.
All non-text content would require significant positive moderation before becoming visible to everyone. Otherwise the threads would be full of goat_se.jpg or great_breats.jpg.
Just wait till you post a comment which receives a single negative moderation. I used to get the 15 mod points. Then I posted a comment which received 50% Troll mods and 50% Underrated mods (quite a few each way - final score Troll +1). And the comment created discussion; but was deemed too confrontational/condescending. I will never see 15 mod points again -- all hail the ignorant moderator Overlords of Slashdot.
YEAH! Especially the "sarcasm" and "irony" tags. Getting the point across to those who don't speak those languages is so difficult with those approved tags.
Your post creates such a negative energy field I am surprised the packets can even leave your home network. Somebody bring me a couple more beers and a good porn link, please!
This must be why the crayon colors of black, yellow, white, red, and brown are getting updated names like "nightshade, lemon, chalk, ruby, and chocolate". Can't have the kids subconciously assigning colors to people.
Your comment may have been modded down; but can still be read -- so your right to free speech has not been negated. If your comment had been completely deleted, then the China comment might have merit.
The right to free speech does not implicitly require the obligation by others to listen. Apparently the mods would like to see more useful content in your statements.
it's likely that when we reach the point where we have hundreds or thousands of cores, new tasks will emerge that take advantage of the new capabilities of the hardware.
To which I would propose we focus on post-processing data correlation instead of pre-processing debugging. Rather than DECLARE a value or process and test IF the result or process OPERATES to a predefined expectation, we POSTULATE a direction and allow each core to PROPOGATE along a different vector. Then use those multiple cores to display all possible post-processing correlations of all the PROCESS VECTORs. The result set will include valid results, invalid results "eg: can't divide by zero", unexpected results, contradictory results.
The abundance of cores will provide a resource which has not been available in traditional resource limited computing: disposable processes and disposable results.

Cry "cheetos!" and let slip the car analogies of slashdot.
If magnets were attached to Shakespeare's corpse and his casket was wound with copper wire, he would now be generating enough electricity to light his Globe theater.
The article and this discussion also fails to address the financial and organizational problems inherent in purchasing and allocating systems. Virtualization and shared systems are not always politically and operationally feasible. The computing cloud is a great concept; but the implementation is more complicated by people -- discreet individuals with discreet goals and discreet financing methods. When cloud computing can provide simple and comprehensive chargebacks on an effective granular level, then we can discuss removing excess capacity in physical systems.
Did someone actually reverse engineer the Republican Party, create a CVS, and post the elephant code, remove the copyrights, make some inadequate documentation, and post the project on Sourceforge? I don't know whether that is impressive or downright mentally unstable.
You also probably, but not definitely, get someone who has a better concept of what you can reasonably get for the house
Most counties have property records online; or another pay for service has the information cheaper than 6% of property value. I just entered "%%% foobar dr" into my county appraisal district; and listed the sale/appraisal of 57 residences on my street. No realtor required. Previous to the Internet, it was more effective to pay a realtor and their support structure to obtain this information either thru proprietary services or manual property records searches.
Yes, realtors provide other services. But, providing transparency to pricing enables a level playing field for all persons in the transaction: buyer, seller, government,house inspector, in-laws, yada yada.....The Internet also allows the parties to also contact each other anonymously as part of the discovery process. Realtors acted as implicitly trusted communications intermediaries; the Internet allows us to use free email accounts instead.
Realtors are going to need to learn and use a different skill set with these erosions of their legacy operations. Just like the RIAA/MPAA/bar association, the government monopoly needs to aggressively intervene to prevent the scared, sacred old dinosaurs from stomping the new species to death.
I think he fancies himself a geek. He should be taken outside and soundly thrashed.
I think you lack the proper education. Please take 2 of these and return to Slashdot in the morning.
I suggest:
1)spraying hair spray on the connector of the RJ45 jack on his office computer. This should cause some flaky signals without leaving a visible cause.
2)Take his laptop apart and remove one of the wires from his wireless antenna.
3)Remove half the spark plugs from his auto, increase the gap by about.006 inches, and put them back.
4)Write some code to SMS him Shakespeare's sonnets one line at a time from a disposable cell phone. Repeat with Edgar Allen Poe if the first application was not effective.

...and stored extra copies of bits of his wife in multiple locations so a full recovery of her corpse is possible in case of wild animals.
...so the actual time of death can be recovered from the assault logs.
...she can be definitively identified by DNA without CRC errors in a genome.

Erlang vs. Stackless python: a first benchmark is a very good discussion of lots of niggling details in benchmarking a concurrency language. The comments are quite good.

I find your ideas intriguing; and plagued with excessive common sense. Please subscribe me to your newsletter.
Anonymous electronic money transfers will not be allowed....Oh, there's no code in the CVS. Government has already been here and cleaned house.

WILL YOU STOP GIVING THE BRAINLESS GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRATS IDEAS!
Or at least use double ROT 13 encryption so the government can't read your ideas without using illegal encryption tools.
Why do you want Realtors for your front porch when they bring the stink of monopolist pigs with them?
