...psychic's. Google's academic result versus MS's commercial result (photo studio) is a company policy. The search results are based on algorithms, however they arrange the importance of (meta)data is reflected in their search result. I'm not sure if Google's method of displaying commercial ads along the right is a trademark/patent but ads must be displayed to generate revenue, if they are not displayed outside of the results they will be displayed within.
Google has always been rumoured to making a thin client, web browsers offer enough functionality to do this. If at all Google would include a trimmed down Linux kernel binary, TFTP would be a nice implimentation, or a Google branded USBHD that would plug and play it.
All this means is, when the call occurs to save data to disk the call not only writes to the primary disk but as well to a network device in parallel. Almost like a network RAID setup, realtime only means that the writes are "requested in parallel" as network latency will be much higher then on device storage. For mission critical the data to be saved would have to remain in memory until it can be verrified that it has been successfully stored at both points which should really be done regardless.
As for polling evrey Xmins it may not work as well as during busy times of day you may have massive amounts of data in queue (just as much memory needed to short term store it while waiting to be written). Proformance will also get hurt as the stack gets flushed interrupting currently running processes and will continue to do so until the built-up data is sent and verrified. Your server will be stalled in intervals causing catchup conditions. The data being delt with as encountered allows better usage of intermediate storage off the main machine to help the bottle neck if saving over slower networks (i.e. VPN over INet) of course depending on your connection to the destination;)
I guess if someone elses javascript ran while reading Gmail it would be a bad thing. With Gmail (DHTML) most of the headers and some content of your messages are loaded in your browser. Evreything loaded in your browser is a part of DOM which javascript can copy, send or hide or I guess even change. Don't forget though since Google's javascript is also running we don't know for sure if it will let the other script run, crash the browser, slow evreything right down or just do whatever it wants. Theoritically it could copy evrey branch of the DOM and send it as an object but as far as I know javascript can only communicate to the server from which it sources.
The heating may not be that bad actually. The inital heating would be expensive but once it is the crops will give off heat as they grow, condensation can be gathered as the heat touches the dome and used to water the plants. Along the inside perimiter growing fungus(mushrooms or moss) help to insulate as well as contain the warmth. As well because it is a dome it can be constructed to allow sunlight in during the day time (not to mention northern canada parts of the year has 24hrs sunlight) so lights would only have to be powered minimally.
I guess as well burning of product that may not be salable could heat the area as well, hell we have so much land we could use a square mile just for planting solar cells and wind turbines for juce.
Since you are a farmer you might be tempted to eat some of the food you grow insead of purchacing it at a grocery store? Why is this acceptable? If you are a farmer you are growing (alot) more then one family can consume? It would be difficult to make money or even break even otherwise (if that is your primary source of income.) I think it would be safe to say the production would have to be enough to feed a huge demand.
There are huge diffrences from farming other than tending and harvest procedures. Life span, soy has a much higher resilancy then many farm products; consistency, no worries that consumers will no longer like one type of product and shift to another(red pepper to yellow or similar) it is soy and thats it the whole growing area can be geared to one specific soil 'setting'(PH, nutrients, etc); training, since your crop is now static training a new hand will be simplified as nothing is going to change other than what effects all crops(flood, fire, frost,...)
I understand your background, it is similar to tradional farming but the demand is consistent and extremely high(how often do farmers get paid top dollar for each crop pulled from their fields?) and of course you are only turning out one type of crop that makes things easier as well.
Here in Canada the North half is mostly cold as hell and not growing anything right now. Making a huge inflated dome or groups of would alow us to change the climate within and take advantage of land that would remain frozen other wise. We have availible land at least 2x larger then the largest state in the US. It's cold once you get out side, but there is no infastructure and putting rail or other means of transportation would be simple as there really isn't much up there anyway as well we have lots of access to water for transportation overseas.
The combonation of a material device (RFID?) that will produce a 128bit or higher unique ID as well as mental contribution (knocks) is a pretty good idea. It would prevent access to lock pickers as well as after theft of the device.
I love your idea of using mouse clicks though. I don't think it would be as difficult to memorize the click pattern as you could use a visual prompt(flash?) that would change to the 'beat'. So click-rest-click-click could be represented by the appearance and disappearance of images to keep the user in tune. As a higher model of security the location of the mouse when clicked would further the autentication and the user would not be the wiser. This would all be relative to a short animation.
This is definately cool for phishing attempts as when you goto the companies web site they will have to provide your personal animation, which they really have no way of knowing in advance.
You know the funny thing is that Moore was the co-founder of Intel and sais that evrey 18 months chip speed will double. The question is what is the factor that makes it take 18 months? I find myself doubtful that Intel brain power sits around for 16 months comming to the conclusion that making the process smaller is the way to go.
If the company came to the correlation that size effects speed do you think they would really start at a process 10um and restrict themselves to small advances at a time? I know if I was in their position I would definately figure if speed = small size I would start looking at the smallest off the bat. If so then 18 months is likely the time it takes to make enough off of the last batch to afford the new ones.
Just as an aside in your 2k calculations does that include swapfile? I can easily run an install of 2k (fresh with no temp files,inet files, etc) 800MB
The problem with that is Aero-Glass may be set up to *only* run on certain chipsets. Meaning the system *could* benchmark the subsystem then make its decision, but that will not generate as many sales. The Microsoft way would be to check your chip mandate you have an internet connection call Bill to see if they want it to run.
Its not the bandwidth that google 'uses' its that each person who uses the internet takes the time to type www.google.com. There is a want that Google fulfils that make people type it into their browsers each time. Does Verizon really think by responding to the internet users around the world when they press enter saying 'sorry can't do that right now' they will teach Google a lesson? I don't think so, I don't think their share holders will either.
Either way I think Verizon is kinda slow if they attempt this, if they slow Googles upstream, they could serve the packet from anyother country and it would still get to you in a quick manner, as a bonus Googles pages are extremely small and if compressed even smaller.
If they slow the downstream as well then again it migrates to somewhere else geographically for crawling. Remember Verizon are only the gatekeepers between the US networks and the backbone. I guess Verizon could sniff traffic comming from the backbone to ISP's but wow that is a way to go to prove a point, with all the extra hardware and employees just to watch Google-packets it would be cheaper just to sit-down and shut up and that is not a good position to be in.
Actually I think this is an intresting case. If this holds true then can telcos attain compensation for business calls as well. If I call my friend to say hi should I be charged a diffrent rate then if I make a profitable business arangement? Should top execs be charged a premium just to use a network? And if any of this holds true by what means could they be allowed to attain assurance of the severity or amount of the charge?
Could this be a new cash cow? Imagine making even 1% on a company like IBM, HP or GE for each multi-million dollar deal made through means of telecomunication(pots, IP, cell,...).
This could either create new accepted business methods or bring each company into the telecom game by buying a part of, or the whole "wire".

As Google narrows down the matchup between seller/consumer using my data to bridge the gap, at what point to I get a cut of the action?
