If the app impacts diagnosis in any way it is no longer just an app, it's a medical device, and subject to regulation.
This doesn't even begin to speak to patient data stored locally in an app and current HIPAA regulation.
The DSM-IV, which is simply a list of diagnostic criteria for psychiatric disorders, is available in e-book format as an "app". Is that app a medical device? What about a paper copy of the DSM-IV that I carry around in my pocket? Is that a medical device, too?
The DSM-IV is more than just an app, and it would be impossible to argue that it is not subject to regulation. In fact, were such regulation introduced to medical apps, would you not agree that the mental health aspects would be regulated, and that a large basis of this regulation would be based on the DSM-IV?
Despite its flaws, it is still one of the benchmarks in psychiatric medicine, and would undoubtedly be a foundation for the regulation of psychiatry apps were such regulation to be introduced.
Consider, however, the development of non-volatile RAM (eg MRAM) which could retain all the information needed to restore a computer to exactly as it was before a power-off. Even on modest bus bandwith, loading should be virtually instantaneous - and you would essentially be able to resume from where you left off.
But can you transmit 400W of power, safely? You simply cannot walk through a beam of power like that without knowing about it.
This is the problem.
Most people would choose fertility over wireless power.
I can honestly say - being a High School student - that the only reason that kids want to use computers in class is to make a change from the boring routine (and by Christ I mean it when I say boring) that makes up lessons. Being taught things you learned in elementary school, again, 6 years later, is not an entertaining experience. Staring at a computer screen, attempting to think of something meaningful to type, is.
This, however, is not as bad as the "test" regime run. Now, there is nothing wrong with testing in certain subjects (maths, science etc.) But putting time limits on such things as history tests is retarded. Not once - once - have I been able to write everything I wanted to say in the 60mins allocated slot given. And then they are dissapointed when I do not achieve 100%, blaming it on lack of revision. It disgusts me. The work in class? Has no value. Your final results do not reflect on the work you do - be it good or bad - during the 60 hours of class that you have done that subject in. Instead, all future employers will have to look at is a bit of paper representing 60 minutes worth of scrawling. And then they say that no child is left behind.
When you can prove to a 15-year old kid that learning about the Casimir effect and ionic bonding will be useful to them in their future (whatever that may be), and that going into a career in sciences will pay the mortgage, despite the fact that they work 10x as hard and are 10x smarter than that joiner guy down the street, then maybe they will begin to care whether or not they learn about it.
Fibre optics work on a system of total internal reflection, whereby no light is lost out of the fibre, as to avoid data loss and crossed wires - so this would not work.
You, my friend, are stupid.
We are talking about unneccessary, stupid gases.
Water, on the other hand, is vital to the atmosphere. However, due to the greenhouse effect, more is evaporating and thus the concentration is increasing. However, it still remains at a healthy 60%, compared to a very unhealthy 20% for C02.
Where the hell did you get these "scientific facts" from?
Oh yeah, farright.org
A re-run? Again?
I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!
Initiating self-destruct sequence.....
Remember: No matter how good the numbers are, some satellite, somewhere, is sick of putting up with their shit.

No, they aren't

I propose building a giant, fantasmoriphic mirror to solve the problem!

I wouldn't trust experimental evidence by someone called "Dr Wang".

Is CmdrTaco a journalist? (I've got nothing against you, but alot of people here seem to...)
Why doesn't he just surrender already
I don't think too many people will be complaining about getting free nitrous oxide in their car....

Arghhh!! Those damned Zorgs be blastin' the sail again! Fire the port cannons!
Does it come with nuclear missile launchers to search and destroy DoS attackers as standard? Don't ping flood this motherfucker.
