Sexoffender fighter enter the room. Sexoffender fighter pick up the knife. FBI Most Wanted Wizard sleep. Sexoffender fighter notice you. You zap Sexoffender fighter with cellphonetaiser. FBI Most Wanted Wizard wake up. FBI Most Wanted Wizard zap you with microwave pain projector. You are in pain. You are slow. You throw cellphonebomb at FBI Most Wanted Wizard. Sexoffender fighter hit you with knife for 18 damage. You die.
That is too abstract advice. If person not really guilty he/she usually talk to police, any advice notwithstanding. Not talking put you in confrontational position, which is psychologically uncomfortable and stressful. And that wouldn't be end of the story. Police would proceed with harassment, threatening phone call and subpoenas. They would also have ground for obtaining warrant for search. And if they search your place they will take away your computer(s) whenever that reasonable or not. Best course would be talk to lawyer, explain situation and take his advice, talk or not and what to talk about. But be warned - crappy lawyers happen too. And don't be guilty, that always help.
An old bug where any version of visual studio (up to VS 2005) often hang in debug breakpoint if language toolbar enabled ? Latest I hear bug considered fixed because it fixed in Vista. But I still have some hope...
Nice city you have here. What a pity, 99942 Apophis going to wipe it out in decade. However for couple of billion we can change its course a little. What ? According to your date you are safe ? Believe me it's going to hit you. We have just installed propulsion system on it's surface.
Flow in the title of Lorentz paper is not a flow from fluid dynamics or physics. It's a purely mathematical term which mean a solution of differential equation (Lorentz equation in the case). In more general sense flow is a group action of R on the manifold - that is solution of the differential equation on the curved surface. It's studied by specific branches of mathematics - Differential (topological) dynamics, which in big parts owes its origination to the Lorentz paper.
So the title of the paper really mean "Deterministic Nonperiodic Solutions"
Old and venerable practice. In old times they didn't used fancy staff like microwaves though, just plain red-hot iron. Show it to test subject and he admit his lies at once.
i know you computer scientists like playing mathematician, but there's a reason why you're the butt of mathematicians jokes. because you guys are nothing more than glorified engineers.
The Spanish conquest of the Americas is often overly dramatized. In all instances I am aware of, it was *not* Spanish technology that carried the day.
Arn't you forgetting something ? How Spaniards got into Americas in the first place ? Anyway I'd heartily recommend "Guns, Germs and Steel" by Jared Diamond to understand the situation better.
Symbian 3rd edition (v 9.x) is not capable of running unsigned native application. Period.
Some application, restricted in functionality could be signed by developer without developer certificate(LocalServices, UserEnvironment, NetworkServices,ReadUserData,WriteUserData). User can allow application which use only those capabilities to run on his device.
The rest - Network control, Multimedia driver, Communication driver, disk admi, PowerMgmt, Location, ProtServ, ReadDeviceData, Surroundings driver, SwEvent, TrustedUI, WriteDeviceData - should be signed online through Symbian website or offline by other certified body.
The situation is quite heated right now, after Symbian introduced some more restrictions recently (removed free developer certificates, which allow sign application for single phone - IMEI numebr).
Symbian signed forum turning to flamefeast between moderator interventions.

Of cause all this only from legal point of view. Many devices (all FP1 and Nokia N95-1, not 8GB) have their platform security hacked already.
Making negative blanket statements about 1.2 billion VERY VERY diverse Muslims on Earth is also hate crime...
So if there would be only ten millions of very diverse Muslims on Earth making negative statement against them wouldn't be a hate crime. It's a hate crime only because there are 1.2 billion Muslims around. Now I understand why antisemitism is not considered to be a hate crime by Muslims - there is only about ten millions of Jews around.

For such a lengthy review author have surprisingly poor knowledge of Banks "Culture" series.
This far in the future, technology renders scarcity obsolete, leaving the Culture free to practice a kind of anarchistic benevolence towards less developed species.
"Culture" series is not about "our" human future. According to Banks lore Culture exists in some corner of our galaxy simultaneously with us, and we are one of the "less developed species". In the "State of the Arts" short story collection Culture ship is visiting our contemporary Earth.
Starting with v9.x it has mandatory signing and capabilities model. Self-signed application have similar functionality to iPhone SDK. Only free application could be self-signed. Non-trivial capabilities, like network access require Publisher ID, and in some case explicit phone manufacturer approval. Developer certificate, which needed for on-device testing also require Publisher ID and valid only one year. At least iPhone user interface is not so ugly as that of Symbian devices.
If you are not calculating monetary expectation of win vs loss, but actual usefulness of win. For very big win which could change quality of life considerably, especially for poor player, expectation of payoff for player in term of usefulness can outweigh expectation of loss.
Fastest supercomputer is around half petaflops, with next version around 1+ petaflops. Human brain performance on the other hand is estimated from 100 to 100000 petaflops. And vector processors (GPU and likes) wouldn't cut it - human brain highly interconnected, something that vector processors rather not good at.
Brute force simulation even more difficult - we are talking about millions of petaflops here.
And estimations like those have tendency to grow, not to shrink. It quite possible that taking into account glial cells would requier another several orders of magnitude.

Why not just kill them after their prison term is over ? It's just like sadistic death by thousand cuts after they released anyway. Can't live, can't work and anyone is welcome to kick them. Are they so much more dangerous than murderers ?
Dear Aunt, our frustration-detection help system detected that you have problem with letting it set so.
We now double you up to the killer, who will delete select all.
The point here is not workflow or intuitive UI.
The point is, mathematics and other research rely more and more on computer algebra systems. Up to the point of including CAS code into proofs of theorems and other research paper. However the point of mathematical proof is that anyone with enough knowledge can follow it and verify it step by step. If commercial closed source software is part of mathematical proof, proof is becoming essentially unverifiable. Mathematical theorem become hostage of software owner. That is a step toward complete privatization of science.
On of the ugliest incident happens then owner of your favorite Mathematica Steven Wolfram claimed ownership of proof of CA rule 110 universalty and obtained a court order preventing researcer from the publishing the proof in the conference proceedings. To publish it as the Mathematica code in his books.
From wiki on spintronic I understood there is an actual current of electrons, but with coherent spin. Kind of like laser with electrons instead of photons.

Proper proof is that rationals are countable. That's why they have measure 0.
