No Kidding. And revit please, while we are at it. Unfortunately Autodesk agreed with Microsoft that Autocad would never run on an OS other then windows in return for tools to port from unix, back in the day.
The doctors and physiotherapists both checked for a rotator cuff injury. They didn't find anything wrong there. I just have to work on these muscles In think. It has only been three weeks since I took the brace off the arm.
The loops we put into freeways for incident detection last a lot longer than loops at intersections because there is very little shearing force in the road surface where there is less acceleration.
I am working with a physiotherapist to get full movement back but it takes a lot of effort working on the joints, muscles which needed to be stretched, and the muscles which need to get their strength back. Around the office I have made a concious effort to use my right arm again (opening doors, etc) and in the last two weeks it has improved significantly.
Yeah lying down I can swing that arm to the vertical then back above my head. But working against gravity it can't go nearly as far. The joint seems okay and I have had to stretch the muscles on the bottom of the shoulder joint to get that amount of movement.
I have had about a month of physiotherapy now and the advice I have is that the limiting factor is the strength of the muscles which lift the arm.
I broke my right arm in a cycling accident on the 30th of july. The arm was pretty much immobilised for two months. To this day I still can't lift my right elbow above the level of my shoulder. The muscles in that arm are gone. Hard to think what shape I would be in if I spent six months on the ISS.
Well this was 15 years ago. We were developing systems to do optical incident detection, but the technology wasn't really up to it. We had incident detection systems based on inductive loop detectors which worked very well though.
Really just low tech jobs. You are just using human brains as pattern recognition devices. They could outsource the whole job to India, or these days use AI, which might be more expensive.
We had about 200 traffic cameras in my last job. Experienced operators would let the video switch cycle between cameras, one per second. If anything strange happened the change in the regular pattern would be immediately clear.
Going beyond 200 cameras per person would be difficult IMHO and you couldn't pick up small incidents this way. It was mainly for big changes in traffic patterns like a car crash.
My openmoko phone runs Illume (E17) and I am developing applications for it using the toolkit which comes with Enlightenment. On small screens its a pretty good environment. I tried E17 on my HP laptop and was less impressed. If I had been willing to tweak it before going back to Gnome I might have had better results.
He doesn't have a party to pay for his reelection campaign so he needs to drum up controversy as a way to get free publicity. Picking a minority and calling them a Criminal Organization is a good way to get your face on TV.
If you think a person has broken the law then call the cops. Don't just splash allegations around under parliamentary privilege. If people in the CoS have broken laws then that says nothing about other people who associate with that organization.
In the absense of facts the senators statement in the summary could be applied to pretty much any set of people.
I don't like Scientology either but I value my freedom to associate.
Maybe they just got into the company web site or billing system.
But even so imagine that the operator of the system wants to save $$$ by outsourcing maintenance to Indian or Chinese companies. They would have to get in with a VPN. If the tradeoff is between money and security, money wins.
I am not from the US but it is pretty clear to me that the US is vulnerable only on its energy supply. That is why they now have an oil producer (Iraq) as a client state. You can mouth off about the US being the next victim but the fact is that as long as they have a supply of energy they can't be effectively attacked short of lobbing nukes. And even there the chance of success is small.
If the recoil has the energy of the projected laser but in the opposite direction, the way a bullet gun's recoil does, how is it not enough to notice? The lasers in this article, including the hypothesized portable version, pack quite a wallop.
The recoil has the momentum of the projected laser. Photons, like atoms, have mass-energy which, along with velocity determines momentum. But a lot of energy gives very little mass. So photons have a lot of velocity (C) and hardly any mass, so they have hardly any momentum for a lot of energy.
The atoms in normal rocket exhaust have less velocity but heaps more mass-energy, most of which is just dead weight.
It might depend a bit on your objectives. If you want to spread terror by setting fire to (say) Baghdad then cruising around the sky with a laser might be more efficient than dropping bombs all over the place.

AutoCad would be nice to have on Mac OS X.

Mercurial for...
Windows
MacOS
For linux it should be in standard repos.
This way you can make changes on any of your systems and move them around as required, merging only when needed.

Whats your point?

The movies were advertising for the clone wars cartoon series. Its all to get the kids sucked in. My seven year old son has four light sabers.
I think there was a band in the UK which filmed a public performance that way. They just applied for the footage after the performance.

Its worth pointing out that Enlightenment has multiple back ends, only one of which is X.

Seriously
First they came for the Scientologists and I said nothing...

Should be simple
e=m*c^2
m=c^2/e
momentum = mass * velocity
=v*c^2/e
Or maybe thats naive.
Obvious troll is obvious.

I think we are way beyond 40 watts now.
Does firing a laser bring recoil opposite the laser's direction with the energy equal to that in the laser, the way firing a bullet does?
Yes, but not enough to notice. In theory a laser can be used as a rocket drive, as can my LED torch. Just not a very good rocket.
