A. Create separate colony around some other star B. Wait about 3 generations C. Get invaded by descendents of original colonists looking for better place to live.
"This achievement is the direct result of the new architecture we developed under the DARPA program," Barnett and Honsberg said. "By integrating the optical design with the solar cell design, we have entered previously unoccupied design space leading to a new paradigm about how to make solar cells, how to use them, and what they can do."
Coincidentally, this gaseous exhalation also achieves a buzzword density of over 42%. We have "new architecture", "integrating", "unoccupied design space" and "new paradigm". I have no clue what point they are trying to make. For extra credit, try to explain the difference between "how to use them" and "what they can do".
Thanks for the link, it has a lot of good stuff in there. I remember seeing a miniDAP at ICL Kidsgrove around 1984. Neat machine with 1024 processors intended for a single-user workstation.
As I read the Cell architecture it doesn't violate the other two claims, since it doesn't have a switch. It uses two rings to communicate between processors with none of the performance benefits that are claimed in the patent. Can't imagine why these folks think they have a case.
Back in the 70s C.mmp used a crossbar switch to connect multiple shared memory to multiple processors with local memory. It covers claims 1, 2, 3, 6, 7 and 8 but claims 4 and 5 appear to allow a processor to simultaneously write data to multiple memories (local and shared). I can't think of a parallel architecture that did this.
Many blog sites would be interested in a solution to comment spam. You might try letting them know that you're working on it. In fact, you should post a note on a few thousand blog sites letting them know about your website!
I think you are on to a better idea. Put the generators in the lines at Dunkin' Donuts and Starbucks. It will not only give you something to do while the person in front of you spends 10 minutes ordering a freaking cup of coffee, but also make you feel less guilty about your own double-mocha grande frappaccino.
If being totally open is such a good thing, then why do the police get upset if you take a video of them making arrests? Do they have something to hide?
fibre channel arbitrated loop was pretty much like token ring, and has been largely abandoned for the same reasons. Switched fabrics support multiple connections, and single misbehaving machines can't create havoc for everyone else on the loop.
Given that all space projects in the US are run by and for DOD, the added benefit of "beaming" is the ability to focus the beam of energy on undesireable features on the surface of the Earth. Think long and hard about who gets the joystick that aims this thing.
I think the grounds for a suit, if you are a content provider, are that the ISP is creating an unauthorized derivative work from your copyright material. They can add a disclaimer to their customers, but they don't have any protection from the website owners.
How many people work at credit card and insurance companies doing low-paid data entry? How much more could they make if they were using some of their time to make lists of names and addresses of people with specific ailments or problems and selling them on the black market?
Based on the wording in the bill, if Dick Cheney goes on Fox and says "Fuck you" Fox gets fined, not Dick.
The broadcasters have made bleeping a fine art by not cutting off the beginning or ending of words, so you can still understand Jon Stewart when he says "mo********er". I am expecting the FCC to close this loophole next.
You have evolved to fear bombs and guns over millions of years? Wow. I had no idea that they had existed for that long.
On the other hand, a 1-week-old baby that I held last weekend was perfectly comfortable. Yet I know that one two months older would have cried because I'm not its mother.
Nope. According to the doc, it claims the security flaw is due to "integer overflow". Some computation goes out of bounds when handed a malicious image file.
I think the parent's point is that saying that the results of an Economics paper is "Decided by Math" is like saying that the Miss America winner is "Decided by Talent". The result that the author wanted is supported by mathematics, but the conclusions were not reached through a step-by-step mathematical process. There are many subjective arguments made in Economics papers.

We used RoundUp for a while and had no problems with it.
If you only have two connections, you can do point-to-point, there is no need to run the arbitrated loop protocol.

Does this explain the last two presidential elections?
I think she is very, er, qualified
strncpy is a frequent cause of code bugs and inefficiency:
1) It does NOT guarantee that it creates a NULL-terminated string.
2) It always writes every byte of the destination. Copy 10 characters into a 1000-byte buffer and it writes 1000 bytes, mostly zeros.

How else will NSA know where you are when you call your terrorist buddies? You don't think they required e911 for your benefit, did you?

How can an internet service started in 1993 be described as fledgling?
