I have been playing with Arduinos very recently. The places that the PI will fit in is where you need to plug into a standard monitor. A TV will be the most common for this. It will also be better than Arduino in places that need keyboard or mouse input. The Arduino seems like it will be better suited to to projects that need IO. Given that the PI runs a full Linux OS and clearly supports host mode for USB, it seems to me that hanging Arduino Nano's at $13 off of the PI's usb port will likely become a very popular solution. Use the PI as a UI system that handles the non-time critical heavy lifting while Arduino's slave out to autonomously run their particular tasks without the need for the PI to even be powered on.
Not fair to even include battery life in the equation as the PI has no battery, so it has 0 battery life. Better to count the Android devices battery as a built in UPS.
A) Yes you can. It's easy. Just say it. You might be wrong. You might be right, but you can certainly say it.
B) Whether something works or not is not dependent on whether you have tested it or not.
The only thing that testing does is let you know if saying it works is correct or not. Of course, I presume the person that said "It hasn't been tested, but works" was using the word "tested" to mean a large scale study with controls and formal analysis. In that case, claiming that you can't say something works without testing it goes from being wrong to being absurd.
if the worst one has had in one's life is a couple insults, then tough cheese, grow a spine and quit using a poor availability heuristic as an excuse to make an embarassingly fallacious tu quoque argument. Most men are not on a day to day basis constantly patronized,
Yes. Evil overlords are an improvement over plastic clamshells.
The cardboard replacement is a little better, but having tried to pen these, in practice they are 70% as difficult to open with little to no risk of injury. An improvement yes, but still not good. Those pieces of cardboard are tough enough that you are not just going to poke a hole through them or easily tear them. The plastic is glued between the layers, so it doesn't just pull free. If your going to cut, you can still gut the plastic, or the paper from behind.
The receipt check as you leave isn't even because they think the customers are thieves. They treat you like a criminal because they believe their own employees are thieves.
It isn't weird at all if you don't make a point to try and misunderstand what he means. If you are in a lit room, and the next room over is dark, you cannot see that the other room even exists because your pupils constrict to let in only enough light to comfortably see in a lit room. This makes a person feel like they are in a space that is much smaller than they are really in. It is even worse than being in a room that is that small because the dividing line between open space and the boundary of sight is blackness. Not a white wall. This is the same effect that you get when you are in a dimly lit cave. You can see your immediate surroundings, but very quickly your sight falls on darkness. You can't see if the passage extends a thousand feet, or if it is a solid wall only a foot past the darkness.
Why can't they just register (buy from who ever already owns) "bank.com" and run a DNS from that? They could just as easily sell bofa.bank.com, capitalone.bank.com, etc, etc.... as they could bofa.bank, capitalone.bank.
You might want to re-read the definition of oxymoron. There is no oxymoron in the phrase "I know it has yet to be tested, but it works." Whether something works or not has no bearing on whether it has gone through testing or not. Testing does not make something work. I finds out if something already works or not.
That is a very good point. It is so bad that in here in the US, a very large portion of the population will state that there is no culture in the US. Most people don't even know what the word means.
I wouldn't expect to find that phrase in a mathematics journal. I also wouldn't expect to find the phrase "Pink fluffy bunny farts" in a mathematics journal either. That doesn't make it field specific. The phrase uses big words, but it is all plain English. It does sound like a phrase that might come up in conversation with friends or my child.
Because you don't really KNOW it works. You hope it works, and you figure that the added processing power is worth the price to catch that occasion that you make a mistake. Your explanation requires a fallible god that is not all knowing.

No kidding it isn't like Madden 2012 wasn't released...
I can buy Arduinos for $13. That is nearly half the price of a PI. Of course for many, $25 is very nearly $13.

Because they taste good?
If you don't see it, you likely never will. You have made your case. I have made mine. I think you have proven my point quite clearly.

Not that far off at times.
Which is why the claim that God is testing us is nothing like running automated test suites.

that pretty well sums up the level of your post.
Numberwang!

It sounds like you have never been in a cave.
If you can't figure out what is neat and nerdy about discussing packaging, you are probably too cool for this group.

It's being replaced by guys shaking hands in front of giant maps of the world?!?!?!?
More seriously, while natralock is better, it still sucks.

The shuttles also jettisoned the part that lifted them into space.

Same with that industrial solvent DHMO.
