I just visited NASA Goddard (great visitor's center, take the kids) and according to the web site they're working toward a 2018 launch of the James Webb Space Telescope. Quite impressive if you can also wrangle a lab tour.
it's a newspaper. this should be familiar territory for them. My paper's not delivered one day, or the paper boy doesn't sleeve it and it rains, or he leaves it in the mud, I call the 800 number and they credit my account. Should be straightforward for everyone to get a credit for 4 days in July. 20 $/month *4/31 = $2.59 each. How many subscribers do they have?
and that's where you're wrong. the initial question IS about wonder. I started messing with BASIC to make simple games on my C128 when I was 8. TFA is talking about kids.
what would you teach an 8 year old to do with bash?
"Chiropractor-diagnosed illness in which the subluxation contained extraordinarily high levels of Chlorine"
This statement is so full of win I don't know where to start. so now subluxations are like sponges. got it. but manipulating the sponge will squeeze out the chlorine? will we see a mop bucket style squeezer at the next chiro-conference?
Chiro's can help with musculoskeletal problems in very similar fashion to physical therapy. everything else is snake oil.
reporting someone gets you no money. but, you can privately sue. and settle. If we're talking about the same guy, I think that's his process. If I recall, certain frequent offenders know him by name. he's a cost of doing business to them. it still works for them because he's a rarity.
my first program was when someone showed me you could type 10 print"butt" 20 goto 10
Type run and the teacher flips out because she doesn't know about the Break key. yes, she eventually just pulled the plug on the computer. next we learned the PLAY command, and the room was filled with ambulance wails. Some of us may have been temporarily banned from the computer lab.
But I learned how a program works. I made the computer do something using a total of 24 characters.
Low bar to entry, intuitive method for an absolute newbie. what's the modern day equivalent? "hold on Johnny, first you forgot to include all the right io headers..."
why did many of us condone or at least find humorous the initial 'big-corp' attacks? IIRC, it's because they (Visa/Mastercard, etc.) were cutting off services to Wikileaks. At the time it seemed they were doing this mainly based on allegations of illegal actions by Assange, the primary face for Wikileaks, but not Wikileaks. There were rather groundless assertions by the US that Wikileaks had done something illegal, but nothing that could really hold water. So, people saw Anonymous attacks on those corporate entities as justified. it was generally limited to denial of service, as opposed to cracking the system and stealing user data, and the companies were seen as unjustifiably hamstringing a strong proponent of transparency and free speech. Easy to paint a 'fighting the man' picture of oppression on that one.
Now, we have this one. Frontline runs a Wikileaks story. I haven't seen the episode. Someone doesn't like it, and they hack PBS. Now, how much damage is done? If we assume actions are limited to what we know, not too much. Full public disclosure of the vulnerability, anyone who's info was obtained was published and has the opportunity to change passwords, etc. But, it was definitely criminal access to a computer system. It is possible that login info was cached elsewhere and may be used for attempted fraud elsewhere. It is possible more was obtained that was revealed. How justifiable is it? Not very. Was the episode 'really unfair'? Knowing Frontline, I doubt it. But anything's possible. Wouldn't mind seeing a critique of the episode. Would it justify what happened? no. If it was biased, would I think it would justify what was done before with the denial of service type attacks? maybe.
Now, if by 'what happened before' you're referring to the Sony fiasco, that's a totally different story. That started with the denial of service thing, but all of the hacking that's followed, stolen CC info and all, falls way outside the normal 'protest' and is clearly criminal activity.
either way, I find it quite easy to differentiate between the different cases, just as I find it easy to distinguish between people holding a sit-in and people throwing rocks through office windows. One's a protest, one is criminal. Sure, you can get arrested for both, but at least in one case people are aware of a line and don't cross it.
is there a particular octave package or function set? I saw some parallel algorithm and MPI libraries, but is there something I missed relating to GPU parallelization?
a quick google search turned up one or two discussion threads where the focus of the debate was whether certain GPU processing libraries were license compatible with Octave. After a few pages of discussions about GPL, BSD, linking libraries and system libraries, Brook and CUDA and something else, my eyes glazed over.
why did i have to get this far down to find this question, and why is there no answer yet. is it that hard to spend 3 words in the summary telling me me what a DM is in this case, and whether G or light will matter to me?

no. Why? because it's called seamonkey.

but thought the entire web was supposed to run off the almighty LAMP stack? you just can't make a neat acronym with Oracle in there.

they're arguing a duopoly. what's the combined market share if you add up Verizon + ATT/Tmobile?
pssst... all technical journals have top reviewers that work for free. that's how the industry works. it's all part of the closed journal gimmick.

those baffled consumers subsidies loss leaders for the rest of us. we should all thank them for their kindly sacrifice.

A lot of dev funding when you realize it requires removing the 'has a battery' feature.
got it. will only ever log in from a single PC/mobile device. no need to remember more than 1 password evar.
maybe you've forgotten:

not sure what'll get through, but we'll try -
alt-0230: æ æ (that 'ae' character)
alt-0181: µ (mu)
alt-0176: ° (degrees)
I was always fond of CuteHTML.
well, lets think about it one step deeper:
why did many of us condone or at least find humorous the initial 'big-corp' attacks? IIRC, it's because they (Visa/Mastercard, etc.) were cutting off services to Wikileaks.

such a group would be a blip on the radar compared to the general mass of voters voting the same way they always do.
dear god... it's only slightly less correlated than babies near airports!

so, maybe?
