Yeah, there's no way there's any overlap in terms of areas like
Information theory(99% of computer science)
psychology(AI)
human response(GUIs)
Computer science is closer to social sciences than it is to cell biology in terms of what paradigm actually means. Other than mathematics, I can see nothing on that page that better matches computer science in terms of what kind of questions are asked, how they are posed, and how research is interpretted.
World of warcraft has pulled in over a billion now. They'd have recouped their cost. That's not to say you're wrong, just that 1 billion is too low a figure.
A lot of linux distros distribute ISOs via bit torrent. I'm not a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that's legal under the GPL. As for non-GPL stuff, what about legaltorrents.com? Legal uses of bit-torrent aren't new.
Holy crap, I never thought of it that way, but slashdot really does support a kind of peer review, and all the comments people make about it supporting "groupthink" and such can easily be extrapolated to scientific review.
I'm not sure if that's a defence of slashdot's moderation/threading system, or if it's an attack on science as it stands today.

SCO Vs. Groklaw

Speaking of slander...
Isn't it slander to declare Groklaw of being comprised of IBM lawyers if it isn't?
Because bearing a hidden message is one thing. These things were emblazoned with obvious glowing elements. Without resorting to excessive second guessing, there's no situtation where this would represent something any terrorist would do.
Your second statement can have a few noun substitutions to demonstrate how ridiculous it sounds.
example:
If the car parked by a minority really were part of an organized campaign of planted explosives, the government would be cheered for its foresight and training. When it's nothing, people like you shrug it off because it didn't turn out tragic this time. That's the price the authorities pay for protecting the people as the people demand.
Just because something is different by no means makes it suspicious. What you're talking about is the very definition of hating freedom. When the only thing you're free to be is what people expect in their day to day lives, you're not free at all.
The fact that a whole industry can press for something out a vendor is a sure sign of price fixing and various other crimes done by trusts. It's time to dust off the Sherman Anti-trust act, and use it on this horrendous industry.
Sure they do. Classified information is information that they don't like that they decided they don't like ahead of time.
We're a few years away from "instantaneous classification". Watch for it about 2 presidents from now.
Could it be the most popular book series of this millinium? IT MIGHT BE. I don't even read this crap, and I can recognize why it may be treated as news. It's fantasy(technically) so it suits slashdot in some sense. What do you have left to complain about?
Only on the xbox 360. you can code some regular old c# computer apps that use xna and there's a redistributable package that lets people run it. I think this whole thing has nothing to do with helping the xbox, or making money on the "creator's club" and a heck of a lot to do with pushing C#,.NET and XNA on the development market.
I know the rules of games are different, but surely your familar with the goal of traditional beta testing.
It's to get the largest number of possible use test-cases as you can to test for bugs before a comercial release. At least that's what I've been taught in my software engineering courses. No doubt there are different concerns in acceptance testing in the world of games, but fanboys will do everything in their power to break the game. If there's any sort of logging system built into the beta release, then hands down a useful addition.
Most wikipedia editors you ever interact with are really quite nice. Wikipedia has a good sense of community. There's also a bit of personal satisfaction of knowing that you're slowly helping expand the ammount of freely available public knowledge, without the cruft.
No, really. Those things are buried among the true stuff, not the other way around. If you watch the changes people make during high vandalism periods(for english wiki, that's usually when schools get out during the 4 U.S. time zones). It still has a really high ratio of "good" to "bad" edits.
Your argument holds no water. I can distribute my copy of a book. I own it. It's completely legal in spite of the fact that I have no consent from copyright owner. What I don't have permission to do is copy it.
I'm not a lawyer and there's a a good 2 centuries of legal precendent on this matter I don't know about, but fair use has to do with the kinds of copying you can do yourself without violating someone else's copyright. The example you usually hear trumpteted is backups.

Not that the price will go down... sigh.

It's still in the N log(N) time class. Mergesort has minimal time overhead to prepare and only N memory overhead. Do we have that for this algorithm?

You'd have to be crazy to think that NASA doesn't do a psychological screening of their personel. It's just not likely that she was already messed up.

Not for the pirates, no... It's generally beleived that DRM is to screw those who actually pay for things into paying for them more than once.
You could not be more right, all the fun of CIV plus strategic combat and fantasy elements, win!
It redirects to avoid confusion on the part of the misspellers.
Honest answer to rhetorical question:
No it does not involve personally sampling. It would involve watching someone else selected from a pool of applicants doing so.
Sure they do. Classified information is information that they don't like that they decided they don't like ahead of time.

Like people who kill attorneys willing to prosecute those in the mafia. If any phishers can be found, I hope they get jailed for life.

Oh yes, because carbon is totally on the left side of the periodic table. Of course.
