Actually, I found Gosling report devoid of information, and the bit about there being no sound was incorrect - the Mustang went in with the throttle open, and there was plenty of noise evident in the videos. I'm sure it might have seemed that way to him at the time - the mind can play funny tricks in situations of extreme stress. There's been lots of informative posts from race experienced aviators, in other forums than this.
And platform independent? It's not like he wrote the post in Java or anything - WTF?
UPS system should automatically alert via SMTP or SNMP when a battery faults. The batteries are hot swappable too, so there would be no outage required to replace it. If Murphy strikes and you get a power outage whilst swapping out the UPS batteries, having dual PSUs in your servers powered off dual UPS units would cover you.
If by modern you mean Dolby 3D as used in Avatar, then no, they don't use polarised glasses.
There's a subtle shift in the RBG wavelengths projected for each eye. The glasses have very precise filters. The projectors have a digitally controlled filter wheel that basically interlaces the left and right viewpoints. Because the frequency shift is so slight, you don't really perceive it when viewing without the glasses.

W00t - I forgot this was due out, thanks for the heads-up. I'm off to bookdepository.co.uk to order it now :-)
I think this sums it up nicely http://www.amazingsuperpowers.com/2009/12/back-in-my-day/
It's not Kurzweil's Singularity, it's Vinge's Singularity.

Not for business accounts. We have a 20 Mb pipe and it's all you can eat. Admittedly it's bloody expensive, but at least it's uncapped.
Unobtanium?
"not documenting them good enough"
Were you being ironic?
What is the fascination with making animals glow?
I figure it's a long term plan to make night time less stressful when the zombie apocalypse comes
Maybe they're just holding their phones wrong?
Do not look at satellite with remaining eye
Is that some kind of Pong clone?
Have you tried Palo Alto? They have the lowest latency among the current crop of UTM firewalls.
I don't 'kin see what the 'kin fuss is about.
If you were a passenger on a 747 and all four engines failed, I bet you'd find it pretty fucking unusual.
I dunno about quantum photography, it's neither here nor there.

It seems to me that no matter how much I spell and grammar check the crap out of something on my screen, as soon as I read hard copy I find mistooks.

I don't bother asking users to describe anything any more. I just remote in with UltraVNC and have a look myself.
Get people to submit pics of themselves. They could call it Bada Bing!
What?
They could add a new character to the McDonalds family, Phil McKraken.
