Okay then -- how would you go about installing Linux on a PowerPC laptop with a working DVD drive but a broken screen? No, using a DVI adapter and an external monitor did not work. I will consider any distribution, but would strongly prefer something Debian-based. (A Gentoo derivative would be preferred as well, from an administrative standpoint, but I would rather not compile shit in the middle of a heat wave.)
Here's a better example: you see a nice car drive by on the street, and you decide to watch it. Well, that decision happened four seconds ago. And you moved your head four seconds ago. And you're consciously seeing it NOW.
Even in your computer example, intent is not "crystal clear" unless you have left a message indicating that the computer is for public use. I've left my computer on and (according to you) available in places like public libraries, and would be pretty damn annoyed if I found someone using it to check their email while I went to grab a book.
Intent in the wireless router case is utterly opaque.
Now, to make a simple analogy, if I leave a desktop computer running in the middle of the street, powered on and lacking any authentication mechanism, should I be able to throw a passerby in jail for using it to check his email?
No, obviously not. Your intent is fairly clear.
On the other hand, if every car had a constantly-turned-on computer installed (on their door, facing out, say), with no authorization or authentication enabled by default, such that turning the security features on is relatively difficult to most people, intent would be a bit more difficult to determine.
No need to use a compiled application, really. Use Ruby's Cocoa hooks to create a legitimate-looking application bundle, and have the trojan do a Kernel.system("osascrpt -e... ")
Twice the volume of 2010, i.e. 24,228 would be 48,456 which is less than 43,518. So, though not quite doubled in one case listed there, to say that it would double every two years would be incorrect. And we'd be all over that if they had claimed it to be. IMHO, to say 'double' is a reasonable way to express this concept.
Look at what the two sentence post was replying to. A dumb joke about never having seen female programmers. The two sentence post said he had seen female programmers and a female CEO. A response to the joke claim that there are no female programmers.
Like I said, reading (in the sense of interpreting) that they suck and were only hired because the CEO is a woman out of that says more about the READER than the WRITER.
When all you need is a quick yes/no answer when you're in the middle of some work, having to drop everything and move on to another project or leave your desk to physically find the person is a real pain.
(To my QA guys:) Maybe the fact that we're not available for your "quick yes/no" questions means we're in the middle of some work.
Is it time to move to online-only publications to save costs and speed up distribution?
That's a pointless idea. I like the interbutts as much as the next guy, but you need to realize that the distribution phase of academic publishing takes only a small fraction of the time of producing a work. Most of that time is spent by the peer review process, which is already done electronically.
Your comment does not compile. You're missing, at the very least, a \documentclass{} invocation, document environment, and package declaration for the comment environment. Also, 700 is being used as a number (as opposed to a textual marker, like numerals in "outlines", and so should be in math mode.

Indeed I am, for now.

That makes no sense. Turing completeness is a property of languages, not algorithms.
And when the Administration manipulated the CIA into claiming that there were WMDs in Iraq, they started lying.

"Area" and "volume" are both computed via volume integrals over volume elements.
I've been watching the Ben Stiller Show since you posted this comment, and I must heartily disagree. Mr. Show was far better.

Which is a lot more work than just citing a primary source in the first place. You shouldn't be citing a source you don't understand anyway.

It certainly is.
I always read at -1, because I am a troll and can appreciate others' work.
Mom and pop ought to be screening shipping addresses, not rejecting users based on spurious information.
In fact, I just ran Kernel.system("osascript -e 'tell app \"ARDAgent\" to do shell script \"whoami\"';") in irb, and it worked.

They mostly like to make up crazy ideas that won't work.
Sounds like a good reason to join.

Twice the volume of 2010 is 4020...

RASENGANNNNNNNN!!!!!
I'm surprised how few of us referenced Mr. Show.
We're Earthlings!
Let's blow up Earth things!

How does this competition benefit the consumer?
