For me, the giveaways are:- The fictitious university, The glaring errors in the Game Theory section, The sheer stupidity of the opinions. This has to be deliberate, as actual stupid people are not that literate.
I only respect the opinions of others if I think they are right. Clue, not you God Squad.
What a screw! The link goes to a web site with a low res picture and they want you to subscribe to some crappy printed magazine from Tonbridge, I mean disgusted or what?
Has anyone got a decent 1600x1200 of this we can download without bothering these wankers?
Here's how it works: Each image, whether a picture or a map, is created by a series of dots. Inside the dots are a string of letters and numbers that computers read to create the image. A coded message or another image can be hidden in those letters and numbers.
Well, I got a magnifying glass, and it didn't help, so I looked at my screen with a microscope. It's true! Each dot on the screen contains strings of letters and numbers. And each of those characters is made up of dots... Who knows what those could contain? I think I saw a plot to elect an idiot somewhere...

In fact, forget the clock. The purpose of the clock is to slow the system down! A huge amount of the circuitry of modern CPUs is devoted to getting the clock to synchronise everything. Asynchronous circuitry doesn't waste all that space, and goes faster. Exits, muttering something about a new paradigm...
I was going to apply for a grant to do blindingly obvious research, but I forgot. My thesis was to have been called "Starvation and eventual surcease in the food-deprived."
I imagine that "The Economist" was referring to the American habit of shooting up its allies on the ground, rather than the marginally less frequent shooting own aircraft, flying through cable railways, crashing Harriers with no reason at all, but as usual, irony flies over the American head.
Yes, but there are quite well preserved dodos in several Natural History Museums. It should not be too hard to get DNA from the feathers or feet. And remember, the dodo is extinct because it tasted lovely. Dodoburgers anyone?
My youngest brother wrote a program to do this, in Z80 Assembler, including a very nicely coded Fast Fourier Transform. It ran on a Sinclair Spectrum, and the music was fed in via the tape interface. This was at least ten years ago. As I remember, Vanilla Fudge was really easy to detect...
This hardly counts as news. I read that site about a year ago, I think. Now a Beowolf cluster of Linux penguins attached to a JATO, overclocked, and found on the Moon, THAT would be news...
When I ask my coal merchant for half a dozen sacks of coke, I do not expect either white powder or a brown drink of indeterminate flavour. Coke is a black lumpy substance that has been produced from coal for quite a long time.
I should like to know what sort of plant's growth this would be used to accelerate. I think the inventor has been rolling it in paper tubes and lighting it...
Try "Writing Interactive Compilers and Interpreters" by P Brown. It doesn't go into huge detail, but warns agains all major pitfalls, and gives excellent hints on making your compilers usable. Aho Sethi and Ullman is very good, and nothing in it has stopped working due to age!

"Its" means "of or pertaining to it".

No need, it definitely doesn't.
Go into an exam.
Answer the questions you would have liked to see.
Ignore the actual questions.
