This quote pretty much sums it up:
“Even at a conference you don’t get this kind of interaction happening,” says Suresh Venkatasubramanian of the University of Utah. “It was like the Nerd Superbowl.”

Good point. Let's make a slashdot penpal network. Slashdot, can you print a list of everyone home addresses and send each of us a large bulletin board. I'll start composing my next comment. Should be there in a couple weeks (I'm thinking I'll get "-1 Smartass")
Doesn't the iPhone already do all of that? Oh wait, it would take a boat battery to charge that POS for four days (not to mention it can't can't even make a GD phone call...)
It's a videogame about videogames; and I'm in the videogame. Wait a minute, does this mean he's just the tiny boss of one of the videogames in the videogame? I'm not buying this just so I can watch Bart defeat MG in a mini-videogame... Someone please clarify this ambiguous statement ASAP.
In any case, mapping out the different perspectives has been a good exercise for me as a researcher. I'm glad you had fun. 35 Perspectives on anything is really boring for me as a reader. You basically cut and pasted "The _______ Perspective: Social Networking is really _______" and filled in the blanks with 35 random words. Are you a researcher of MADLIBS?
I don't know what these DVD-thing-a-ma-jiggies are, but unless they remove TV outputs from my laptop, or inputs from my TV, I'll watch movies and eat popcorn with or without my fingers or eyeballs... err... wait...
Sorry. Just found a major bug in the IHT format (at least when viewing in Firefox on Windows). To see what I mean, do the following:
1. Left-click and hold to select some text in, say, the middle column.
2. Drag down to select all of the column and keep going past the bottom of the frame.
3. Watch the weirdness which results in the article scrolling up into oblivion.
4. If you are the web designer for IHT, pray that your boss isn't reading this post.
4 posts in 55 minutes. I guess that the only thing more boring than an article about an empty field is an empty field with a couple of robots roaming around in it.
"Although it runs fine without wires, he had to plug in the monitor to be able to show that it was really up."
Actually, the mac is both dead and alive until the monitor is plugged in - at which time the mac's probablility wave instantaneously settles in at its definite and final value...that is until the batteries run out, then it's a $500 doorstop.
when Linus doesn't understand a problem, he won't fix it
This is interesting logic: The idea that the creator of an organization must understand minutiae and micro-manage everything that the organization does.
Interesting indeed...too bad it's fallacious. (Although it might explain what is taking Longhorn so long to come out - I can see Bill Gates searching Google for whitepapers on file systems, search algorithms, GUI's, etc.)
Slashdot Mirror
This is a contentless comment on the re-posting of someone else's website's story about the contentlessness of scientific reporting.
Why do I have to wait until next month to google "TV"?
I saw what you did there... Moving the "!" to the end...

Everything I say is a lie.
Yeah but most of them just link to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0
Nevermind, the original estimates were correct. Somebody bumped the globe and were looking at Iceland this morning.

Can you make another button that I can push that will automatically push this button periodically for me?
dialup anyone?
In MATLAB:
>> mean(mean(qrand(1000,100)))
ans =
0.4996
photons give us random numbers "free of charge."
Another fix:
Homo erectus = Adam
Home sapiens = Eve

Too bad PINE is not an emulator.

Kudzu grows as fast as one foot per day.
If only beer grew this fast in the wild!
I already patented that technique. (And this one).
