great work...keep the viruses coming. Let the whole world join together to overwhelm Iran with cyber attacks. If we can avoid a conventional war through this action...it's the only responsible thing to do.
Nintendo. Keep the system cheap. $250. Make it support HD. Make it run silent and efficient. No optical media. SD card games only. Currently...4GB cards are $5.00 / 8GB cards are $8.00 online. Prices will only continue to drop. Support robust online play.
ur OS is not going to disappear just because XP isn't supported. Just as u are still running Win 98 machines, you will be able to continue to run Win XP machines...although it's probably best to keep them off the internet once they're EOLed.
Google recruited me to work for them last year. The process was illogical at best.
They told me they wanted to hire me as a software engineer, and that everyone was hired in as a software engineer regardless of experience and therefore this is the position they would place me in.
I did some research and discovered that what they told me was just plain not true. They have many other positions, some of which, were much better suited to my skills and interests. In particular, I was interested in the product management role. I asked if I could be considered for this position, and was told that it was impossible because I didn't have a computer science degree.
First of all I've been out of school for a long time and have lots of industry success/experience. Second, they'll hire me as a software engineer (computer scientist) without a computer science degree...but not as a product manager?! What? They continued to insist on this point....so I said no thank you....I'll keep my current job (at a major tech company).
Kind of sad. I would have been up for a career at Google...if only I hadn't lost confidence in them during the recruiting/hiring process.
FYI...I do have a graduate level degree in Artificial Intelligence...but they claimed it was not sufficient since it was not the same as Computer Science. Crazies.
simple...after you write down the coded, you validate it with your cell's camera. If there are mistakes or (machine) unreadable characters...it highlights them in the image.
might we say the only diff between something like this and a plane is that it has wheels that stay on the ground (hopefully!). It's got surfaces tuned for precise lift (or lack thereof), jet engines, and stabilizing fins.
Yes, but a Spanish major from a reputable school. I'd take a Spanish Major from Rutgers over a "CS" major from ITT Tech any day...if both could do the job.
You've already got millions of peeps buying these Apple TVs, which are fairly capable computers attached to everyone's TVs. It's a no brainer for Apple to enable users to link their iPhones/iPods wirelessly to their Apple TVs to use them as accelerometer and gyroscope based control devices for games...and to let the 3rd party game development community do their thing
Smart phone: $0 and up (Androids can be had for $0, the iPhone 3GS via AT&T is only $50) Data capable plan w/ AT&T: $55 and up
Dumb Phone: $0 and up Simple plan on AT&T: $40 and up
I don't see a huge cost difference here. There's a difference, and it can get even larger as you add services, but it's much less than you imply.
I pay $50/month for my iPhone 3GS with AT&T after my 25% employer discount. A dumb phone would cost me $30/month.
I paid $300 for my iPhone at the beginning of my 2 yr contract, but I can also sell it for $300 on eBay at the end of my contract. It's a break even deal.
My dad took me on vacation down to FL to watch a shuttle launch. It was the Challenger. We got down there and waited around but the launch got rescheduled and delayed multiple times until eventually we needed to fly home so he could go back to work. The next thing I know I'm at my elementary school, sitting in a room with about 30 kids and a few teachers watching the shuttle launch. When it exploded, as kids, we were mostly confused, then shocked. The teachers were crying at first, then some tried to distract us. If I recall, this was a mission where a teacher was on board. Feels like yesterday.
Hey, it's an American news company. Just loop the video and report the same thing over and over again. The civilians and wreckage will be long gone but everyone will still be dancing on TV.
In in some states like Georgia (and I think California and Texas as well?) college is COMPLETELY FREE.
Get into any state school with over a 3.0 HS GPA (which is much lower than most admittance requirements anyways) and the State will completely cover all your tuition and give you several hundred towards fees. Maintain a 3.0 GPA in college and you will be funded all the way through. Even if you drop below a 3.0, if you come back up above it, they will continue to pay.
All states should do this. It does wonders for the local economy...and nearly every university/college in the state is becoming more competitive as a result.
Soon.....
Phones will control the launch of Satellites.
These Satellites will actually be Phones with large antenna and thrusters.
These Phones will serve as comm satellites for Phones on the ground.
It's Phones all the way down.
That's not the only result...
Suicide bombing and deadly terror attacks emanating from the West Bank have dropped dramatically since the wall went up.
The wall is not a long term solution...but it certainly helps to reduce violence in the near term.
means that they promised Israel that they absolutely do not want to destroy them if only Israel would give them back their land...
and by their land...they mean all the land in the middle east, including all of Israel.
and by absolutely not destroy them...they mean, hey, let's have a bit of peace, for now at least, we still don't recognize your right to exist, and hey we might try to annihilate you AGAIN in the future, like we tried to do in '48 and '53 and '67 and '73 and so forth...you know those wars when we original lost the land...but for now...hey let's all just get along.
With good sensors and great algorithms, which we're quickly approaching on....I suspect that your average untrained driver would do a far worse job recovering from a blowout than the control algorithms and sensors on your car which have complete knowledge of all surrounding cars and road features and an extensive data base of maneuvers that are known to be effective in these situations.
I think the chances of being bugged by our gov are around 100%....with a little help from our mobile providers, ISPs, etc.
The risk of those taps ever being examined (by a human - I imagine all are examined by machine) and used are near 0%.
...and sometimes I want to watch a movie where there is no broadband access like on a train/plane/abroad/hotel or a TV in my house which is not "connected" to the web and it's just nice to have a DVD/Blueray.

Interesting how we use something super modern like ceramic lasers to optimize something super old like the combustion engine. Seems a bit ironic.

Now with 480 cores....2x as fast and with 9x better graphics than the iPad 19.
simple...after you write down the coded, you validate it with your cell's camera. If there are mistakes or (machine) unreadable characters...it highlights them in the image.
you just need cell phones with lasers to micro etch the pattern into an envelope....no need to write it down on the letter yourself.

Let's try doing some different math...
Smart phone: $0 and up (Androids can be had for $0, the iPhone 3GS via AT&T is only $50)
Data capable plan w/ AT&T: $55 and up
Dumb Phone: $0 and up
Simple plan on AT&T: $40 and up

the best marios were those with mostly 2D game play but 3D graphics
Yea like a friends and family plan. Pick 5 numbers.

Could the new screws be lighter? They seem to have more volume removed from the screw head. That would be a good reason for using them.
wonder if would have been better to put it in the oven for a bit instead of the freezer...wrt killing bacteria and reducing smell
