Because the tsunami happened and then was over with. The reactor situation is ongoing, and isn't getting better very quickly. There's little point on dwelling on the past, there's nothing anyone can do about the tsunami now, the damage is completely done and over with. There are no new developments. Obviously this translates to "no news".
Yeah I'm glad everything's fine with the tsunami and everybody else returned to their homes.
This is very nice from the signal analysis perspective, but the implication that emergency call may be delayed if the caller is not stressed is a bad idea
I vehemently disagree - the Nyquist theorem misses nothing. In music, there is no reason sample over 48 KHz, unless there is some pitch/time stretching going on. Anyone claiming to hear a difference must have, by Nyquist theorem, a superhuman hearing (highly unlikely).
The nystagmus is a smooth pursuing movement... I don't know how it applies here, since the visual acuity, (spatial resolving capacity) is never measured in terms of the retina alone but as a property of the whole human visual system. Once we're beyond that, we're beyond that.
Are you Italian? if so, it was not a problem of censorship. bwin (and many similar sites) were denied access by ISPs after being instructed by the authorities since those sites were not complying with the italian laws about gambling. Once they complied, access to these sites was promptly re-enabled.
I prefer a phone where MMS Just Works, Out Of The Box.
Yeah, let's bash Apple for issuing firmware upgrades that are more than just bugfixes, and including feature the public asked for. And if someone said he didn't need MMS... he must have been a fanboi or otherwise under Jobs' RDF.
Me: You're in a desert, walking along in the sand, when all of a sudden you look down...
Eugene: Really? Oh, you always say banalities in the way like you present a sensation! Could you tell me what are you? I mean your profession.
Me: You look down and see a tortoise, Eugene. It's crawling towards you.
E: Could you tell me what are you? I mean your profession.
Me: You know what a turtle is?
E: I remember it! The turtle is an aquatic chelonia.
Me: You reach down and you flip the tortoise over on its back, Leon.
E: By the way, have you heard how one Russian on-line translator translates "Bin Laden"? It says - "Trashcan is full!":-)))

Meanwhile, on Twitter, they bought ad space to promote IE9 over the release of FF4. Stay classy, Microsoft! http://twitpic.com/4c6nth

Slashod: news for laymen. Stuff that meh.
They can be, for example I can decide by dice throw.
Mostly because any good software engineer could put a hard-to-find bug in the code.
Yeah, I do it all the time without even concentrating. I'm that good.

though IIRC there were ways to lock up the system if you wanted
Oh, there were lots even if you didn't want to.
it appears there is prior art
Coming from the Twitter feed, I hoped for some behind the scenes tales about making records with Sting.
“Intuitive”? Looks like a nightmare to learn.

If this means I don't have to hear the fans spinning, yes, I'm glad to be back in pixel world.
The fact is that you don't need to “support” Opera or Safari, since it pretty much works as expected.

No MMS on the iPhone. Video I don't give a rip about, but the lack of MMS is annoying.
Well, MMS support has been available for more than a month now, you can be annoyed only towards yourself for not upgrading the firmware.
that would read 7/2, so it would have to be february 7th.
