It's not really interesting when someone does something in 45nm. It's interesting when enough of the problems with 45nm are solved for it to actually be practical to make 45nm-based chips.
Well said. Even the article mentions it as (I believe) "evolutionary not revolutionary". The standard transistor design has not changed to my knowledge but only one (or two) substrate mediums from which it's made. However, I think the molecular (DNA) logic gate model would qualify as (at least) "revolutionary" (if not "evolutionary" as well). And to your point, I believe even a molecular computer has already been demonstrated, but in realistic terms is far from practical.
Yeah, brother. I don't know either to be quite honest. My guess would be that he was probably receiving messages while holding hands around a candle lit medium table, typing on his laptop in between "messages".
There never was any holy war. Jews have always lived in that region, even while dispersed amongst the many nations. Only recently, within the past two centuries it was understood by all civilized democratic nations that this heritage and people needed some protection against historical and persistent persecution. So, under the auspices of Brittish direction that state was established. It was about dignity. Human dignity. The United States nor Brittain nor any other democratic nation is fighting Israel's holy war. Far from it. We as a civilized people are fighting for the protection of other democractic and civilized people worldwide. There is something to be said about loyalty. As separate as even our own cultural differences widen today between the States and the European continent, would you not have us defend the French or Germans or even Turkey? I think too much is implied here when people dabble and fancy with trite expressions like "influence" and "interest groups". Let's not skirt around the issue, shall we? This is the same infant kindling which fed the early Nazi political firestorm of "Jews controlling all the world's Banking and Commerce". So, I ask you. Do we really wish to follow down that path again?
I've dealt with many people who are the type of soldier you're talking about. We don't want to stereotype, but from my experience, soldiers from the states of Arkansas, Alabama, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri do tend to have a lower intelligence than most other soldiers from other states.
Actually, I've trained soldiers from every one of those states while serving in the Army. Your clumsy application of generalizations here is no more persuasive than Billy Joe poking fun at you for hooking a worm that way while fishing together. I've also trained college educated soldiers who later became officers as well. Elitist definitions of intelligence have no weight in fact or even definition, as it varies upon one simple truth alone - experience. You can teach a monkey to use a hammer, and he may just use it in ways you never expected. Similarly, you can teach a scientist to properly thread a worm on a hook, and he may very well add a curl or two on his own for some wiggle. Unfortunately, most "scholars" here at slashdot (and elsewhere) who feast and relish in the application of isms onto others, most certainly suffer themself in both behavioral and cultural iso lation ism. And I assure you, someone from one of those afformentioned states could even point out to you the delicious irony in my last statement. Did you catch it?
Wow. Impressive. I've never seen two physicists battle minds like this before. I must say, from my humble Homer perspective, it's like watching one Stephen Hawkings from our universe battle another goatee wearing Stephen Hawkings from an evil alternate universe, all set in an Ultimate Fighting Championship cage while staring eachother down to scan the other's head to explode.
blazes is going on here? I clickety click the article and it's no more than a summary of the slashdot submission (or vice versa). Where's the beef? Give me more meat and potatoes here or I will be forced to go Digg vegan.
My buzz can't wait for nano. Might I suggest the word "loose" instead? And for all my rock hard liver/. buddies out there, I raise my glass and salute you as we say together, "Moore's law will loose to HP!" Here! Here!
What about those customers who then treat IT like dirt every time a problem occurs? IT is only the savior when something gets fixed.
Customers pay Company. Company pays you. As Sam Walton always said, "the customer is always right." Even an Engineer is no more immune to scrutiny and absuse than a cashier is to a mismarked shelf item. If you understand that, then you're on your way to management, your company dividends headed towards exceeding market projections, and/or your tenure there supplanted with job security.
I'm kinda hoping ground zero for this comet will be in my backyard. I haven't cleaned the pool for winter yet, and that should take care of the black mold.
It's a shame ain't it? Like you, we got a blanket of winter loving clouds down here in these parts for the next few days. I really hate to miss this astronomical event too. Apparently FTA, it's only a weekend matinee showing. As usual, great timing mother lucking nature!
(After 5 minutes of song and dance with a tiresome albeit raspy and curiously sexy automated menu system voice, I finally get some flesh, bones, and real blood hooked up to a pair of lips...)
Me, "Howdy, I have no internet connection and it's worked reliably for the past five years."
AT&T, "Ello, my friend! Can email send from you?"
Me, "Well, it's not just my email but my browser returns 404 as well."
AT&T, "Oh. Ok, my friend. Just a second of time pleese.... Ok. Pleese open aye-eee to www.sbc.dsl.yahoo.com my friend."
Me, "Hmm, well. I cannot use any internet connection at all. I.E. or outlook or anything. Could you please run a quality test on my line?"
(10 minutes of my life transpire next, which I'll never get back, as he covers the handset with his hand while I hear some garbly gook mumbled with his peers in the background. We battle back and forth for a spell over what I should unplug, plug, or try next. And I reluctantly do, well, telling him I did anyways.)
Me, "Still no dice, bro." (as my normal hospitable attitude tempers a bit)
AT&T, "Uh, ok my friend. Just a second of time pleese............. (I can hear the rustling of notebook papers at this point).......... I give you superior visor of best quality now pleese. Pleese hold my friend."
Me, "Thank you." (At this point I see white chips flying from my mouth as I grind my teeth in politeness)
(A few more minutes pass by, but hey, what's a few more right? I mean, how many of us actually walk out the door after stripping down to a thin blue paper loin cloth after waiting 20 minutes for our Proctologist to finish his 10:30 am?)
(So I finally hear a series of clicks. Yep, from prior experience, at this point I've been thankfully switched to Colorado)
AT&T, "Hello, this is Amy, let me run a check switch on your phone number sir. Just a second please."
Me, "Thanks.... "
AT&T, "Sir, we see that you Central Office hub is down at the moment. Please try your connection again in 5 minutes and call back if you're still having problems. Here's your problem ticket number..."
Me, "God Bless America, and thanks for your time Amy."...
Five minutes later I'm back in action baby! The sweet sweet scent of google, msn, etrade and everything else de.lic.ious on the net began to reinfest my senses. At only 7 to 10 pieces of scrillah per hour per native support personnel here, you big shot CEO's making these offshore decisions telling me my 5 years x 20/month x ~1 million like customers =~ $1,000,000,000 is worth losing our business over these trans atlantic fellers??! Fix it. Fix it now! For the love of Crom, fix it now! If I expend one more of these sessions over the phone with one of these guys, I swear to Crom I will rip up the fiber running underneath my sidewalk, use it for a jump rope in my morning workouts, and use the Farley "What'd you dooo?" when a curious AT&T repairman comes knocking on my front door.
I agree with the parent, the iPhone is the first phone that doesn't entirely suck.
Which one doesn't suck? The Cisco iphone or the Apple iphone? Isn't Cisco suing Apple for that trademark currently. I'm in the market for one of these fancy expensive doohickeys, and I don't have a clue which is which anymore. In my day, we had campbell soup cans and kite string hooked to typewriters with battery cables, and by golly, we liked it!

Hmm. Article praises Vista. Slashdotter praises Vista. Moderator deems slashdotter a troll. What's wrong with this picture? Oh wait, nevermind...

Did someone say monopoly? I heard the lawyer for Hans Resier recently tried handing the Oakland D.A. one particular community chest card.
