Bill, you have to go to the RFID conference,...boss i still have a headache for the IT conference last week. Oh, ok ill go, party on!.
Prosthetics will evolve from simple mimmicks for limbs to fully functional devices that will help improving life quality for may persons. You just have to plug this in your shoulder, wear this on your ear and....psst pssst....pssst....you are assimilated.
I also preffer water . Still since coffee is a stimulant, increases the pace of your normal metabolism resulting in a little more calories burnt each hour. So it is a diet diet drink.
I tried once to do the "coffee" diet and my belly wasnt smaller and it felt like a hole inside!, so please dont drink coffee to lose weight.
Thats the spirit. Every electric and electronic appliance should go for that goal. While the effort to finally get a cheap, clean and reliable source of energy is good, we must for once pay attention to nature and reduce power consuption to a minimum, that would buy us some time or being able to rely in smaller sources of energy like wind or solar pannels. Size does matter!!, Although I dont know what im going to do whith such a tiny proyector, maybe i'll put it in my back pockent and sit on it afterwards and break it. Or have it stuck in a child's ear.
man i just read it at wikipedia. I suck at history!, and my teachers, AND my textbooks. I have a textbook(Chilean) that actually says Pasteur discovered the penicilium.
its pure eye candy!!!. Last thing i've ever seen like this is ONI FPS game. Cant wait to watch it, although it means i have to wait like 8 months till it gets to Chile. 2 years if you are thinking of a legal copy.
I agree with the process of an idea being contributed by others. Heck my thesis cited at leas 30 articles and all i did was putting them together and make something else out of them. Of course, those ideas were there for me to use, published in journals and stuff. Is not the same when people want credit and ownership for their ideas, so others wont come up with something better. For example there is a rumor that says Pasteur didnt discover the penicilium, some other guy did, do we know his/her name? are those facts in the history books?...we'll never know. One thing is for certain, if you have an idea that you dont want others to know, just dont tell anyone...or dont relase the source;).
Well, unless the US has claimed the moon to themselves, there is no reason for them not to allow the chinese to do that. I imagine the future of the moon as the antartica`s, where many nations have their bases and no one lives there permanently but all include them in their territorial maps. On this line of thought, the moon will be protected and preserved as the antarctica is or its natural resources(im shure they'll find some) will be mined to the point of swiss cheese moon?.
The Pakistany/Indian conflict is well determined as clubs have names. Besides the "sorry but i had to" message in one of the MyDoom variants, no one has claimed authory on this "gang" attacks to evil empires. As far as we know it could be a single programmer with lots of free time and a bad temper. Maybe is many ppl, but they are merely common intrested in a visible evil empire rather than a gang.
OSS should be looked as if it was a portfolio not a personality definition, since many developers start doing software because they need it for themselves(like a driver or a new phone book, whatever) so basically is mostly real ppl with real intrests, so an interview is what really should happen, not weasely speculation or minding caffeinated beverage taste.
To reach 1.0 status is a milestone for any software developer so, good for him. If you check the screenshots, he has a really nice motivation to get the videoconference going, so good for him again!.
how about, can it run linux? imagine a beowulf cluster of theese, and does it respect the laws of thermodynamics? Someone in this whole wide world will find a suitable purpose, dont worry, just wait.
You have pointed out a critical thing. Marketing. For many year Sun has been succesful in the market because is a reliable brand and quite good.(at least in Chile, of course) its like being "mercedes" or something like that. They have a name and a reputation that helps them a lot. If windows came with a better command line(like xterm) it would be news too!!, and they of course would make shure its news for everyone.
If we want to make OS software more succesful in the market, we have to come up with marketing schemes for it, they can be as important as good coding.
this can be translated to the very nature of the universe as entropy always is growing. It can be interpreted as chaos of matter. When you try to put some order to something(say boil a kettle or build a tower) you relase energy and increase entropy hence reducing the total order of particles. And with time, the tower will fall and the water will cool, rerelasing all the energy concentrated on it, in a chaotic way. For us, is not chaos what matters, is the order we create, to use, while it holds. In a creative process you relase huge amounts of energy(sweat, blood, tears, other ideas, brainstorms, useless thoughts, etc) while putting some energy in an ordered form(your creation).
im positive that he envisions it(he is thinking at that moment:if i just bend his spoiler just a little bit, just a tini displacement of my hand, he'll hoplessly crash), then it actually happens and there's a flash on his face showing a "what da..??". Later on he just says it was an accident(but with a tone saying he wanted it to happen). The real question that macross plus asks is what if apart from your objective functional thoughts, like creating beautiful music, your emotions are transmitted to a machine...will you have control over that? and if you cant, what will the machine do to satisfy your desires...will you add moral constrains to it?.will donald the duck ever wear pants? ohh so many questions...

Mind Over Machine

· Score: 5, Interesting
I remember a scene from "Macross Plus" Where two batteloids where flying and one of them was "neuro controlled". In a part, the neurocontrolled batteloid falls very fast and the other batteloid saves it from crushing into the ground, but as the "neuro" pilot regains control of his mecha, he wishes the other pilot was down(there is some grudge between pilots) and inmediately the mecha obeys the wish and wrecks the old batteloid!!. Be carful of what you wish, if you are hooked to a machine, you might get it!.
i agree, even more the more appropiate term would be dissection. "A Detailed examination or analisys."
On the other hand,autopsy, "Examination of a cadaver to determine or confirm the cause of death".
So unless he was trying to find out why his ipod died, is a dissection(which by the way doesnt imply the subject must be alive afterwards).

so i can just flip burgers in my spare time and then pay a CaseModer to build me one. Hmmm.
Can case moding turn into a serious business or it will remain as a hobby?.
the simplest method used to detect a lie is to cross question the subject until it gets confused and contradict itself. This guys have security departaments, management, developing, sales, etc. They should build a "Lie Tracking" departament, then, they'll have at least something consistent.
I think this post should have been published in "its funny, laugh" category.
thats not my point. I totaly understand your point of view and thats mine to.
My point is What about that people that is being killed, raped, eaten, abducted snuffed and then raped again?. Or are those sites cartoon and props?. Is there freedom of speech for them? of course, you can hear them cry for help, so probably they got a chance to speak.
well that is because no one can defend a point of view to the extreme. For instance, right now, there is no control over the contents of the internet, and many people thinks this needs to be stopped. I think that is too radical, but drawing the line is moral and so it varies amongst us.
What i say is freedom of speech must be treated as such, freedom. Your freedom ends when it can harm the liberty of others, so if your freedom of speech is damaging other people, or even their privacy, you are not free to speak anymore. And another thing, anonimacy has to be out of the question, because if you want to say something there is no reason for you to hide behind it...or is it?.
I strongly feel that freedom of speech must be defended at all costs, however, there is content on the web that i dont want to see, and i just dont. But when i think of people that can see that content and make something bad of it, free speech doesnt guarantee my freedom anymore, giving someone the blueprints for a car bomb. If you want freedom of speech, you should be responsable for your speech, in other words, i think anything that is posted on a website, can be related to an identifiable person. Perhaps your fingerprint or something. This is too controversial anyway, so if im troll please ignore.
