In India, voters decide whom to vote based on many criterions, such as who is giving away freebies, who is paying me money, who belongs to my cast, who belongs to my religion, who is talking about giving children of my community a special reservation in school colleges and jobs,who helped me in corruption, who is going to help me to get away with those inefficiency and bribe charges etc.
You see, Internet and Search Engines do not play big role here.
I used to give presentations on 'professional hazards' and it is no secret that continuously sitting in front of computer could give you neck, back, wrist/fingers/thumb, eyes etc related issues.
The solution is really simple. Just develop a habit of getting out of your chair for 5 minutes, stretch and walk around, pull your fingers and twist your body in every comfortable way you could while focusing on object hundreds of meters away. Make sure the blood is flowing by feeing it, and then only get back in the chair again.
UAE, Malaysia are actually a different world than other places you might have perception about (like Afganistan, Iran, Saudi, Pakistan etc.) They are pretty much open and have far better developed infrastructure, wide open for technology and business.
Most certainly ISRO must have gained a lot from previous mission whether succesful or failures and most certainly ISRO must have access to better technology. But that does not undermine the efforts of ISRO scientists.
You need to recall that China's mission failed in 2011, and read your arguments/nitpicking again. China's failure in 2011 simply implies that with all the advantages you mentioned, MARS mission is still a challange. And ISRO needs to be praised for what they achieved.
Simple solution is to patch it although it might be harder on some devices.
Agreed.
I do welcome these kind of reports, because they will motivate procrastinating managers. I know managers having big 'change resistance', with simple arguments like "Does it affect us?". These kind of report does tell them why it is much better to act now.
How the hell user will be able to go to the website in the first place? Google it and then surf around even if you knew the URL?
I like entering URL of sites I know, for example 'mail.yahoo.com' when I am in hurry to check my mails. For me it sounds like a bad idea.
There is web site of Indian Railways. To book a ticket, they need your name, address, telephone number, blood group, blood sample, retina scan, tongue sample, sperm sample and name of your first born son, your great grandparents and names of all teachers who have taught you in past.
Once one company has done it all others should stop.
Well, not necessarily. There could be lot of interesting (read creative) ideas one could have missed. And indirectly, it creates a healthy compitition everybody benefits from.
If that was not the case, we would have had only one type of car, only one type of plane, only one type of phone..and the list may go on.
I agree that dogs do great job. However trained dogs are expensive and they have a time limit.
Back on topic, I was involved in design electronics and algorithms of chemical detector useful for military/security forces. Right now I am involved in design of device that would detect certain diseases. We used nanomaterial and I believe it does great job. It provides great sensitivity and helps package everything in a small 3 inch box.
IANAC, could anybody explain me whether the technology used in the device "ion mobility spectrometry" is better?
Long back I heard that in India there are people offering insurance against getting caught by ticket checker. The insured person pays money in advance and travels without ticket, and when caught pays fine and the amount is reimbursed.
I tried switching to Xubuntu, thanks to Unity. Xfce is much better. Works great for me. Hope they will not include this feature in Xubuntu OR atleast provide option to disable it.
300 miles is impressive, and probably because they are using Lithium Ion batteries, it should weight less. With gas prices touching sky, I would certainly be interested in this kind of researh ongoing. Some interesting add-ons to this could be PV cells embedded in the body to charge batteries while driving and add couple of hundred miles on the fly.

WTF. Andre Rossi has ecat devices that has been producing MWs of power since 2009 :)
I for one welcome our new terminator overlords.

Want to end terrorist Isalm, target the two originators Israel and Saudi Arabia.
Did you misspell Pakistan?
UAE, Malaysia are actually a different world than other places you might have perception about (like Afganistan, Iran, Saudi, Pakistan etc.) They are pretty much open and have far better developed infrastructure, wide open for technology and business.
Doesn't Jonathan Rosenberg know that 99% of the statistics is wrong, including this one?

Well said. I wish I had mod points for you.
Try ulimit. It helps a lot keeping things under control.

it was as heavy as 14 African elephants
Next time, could you please use car analogy?
Absolutely. There is only one category, good developers and bad developers.
There is no usch thing as YOUNG and OLD developer.

That's nothing.

I said, no thank you.
As if the law is going to stop people from spying...
They do. Or else your DNA would have been public property and related information a public property.

Economy is not science and won't ever be.
Yep. That's why Indians used to use astrogers as Finance Ministers (except for Manmohan Singh.)

Husbands, take notice.
I would think about it later. Do they have anything on 'how to attract chicks'!!

Just checked and surprised to see India has 929 million mobile subscribers. That is huge market.
