He just says "a different set of data, from another customer" without saying what the IPs were. It's a bit of a stretch to assume it's the IP of another end user, but what could it reasonably be?
So with all of this taken into account, what are your odds of dying in an asteroid strike in any given year? About 1-in-70,000,000.
So all-in-all I can assume I personally die from an asteroid strike about three times in 200M years while ignoring that the entire human species is wiped out twice.
And if I wanted the US Department of Transportation to handle this, based on personal risk to individual US citizens alone, they could spend about $30M a year on asteroid prevention.
The article sucks. It just says the risk is low and makes no attempt to compare the risk or the cost to anything else.
I suspect Google would disagree. They've been putting lots of effort into getting everyone a decent Internet connection and more and more of that is mobile nowadays.
Makes it even more weird. Their yearly budget is "just" $3 billion. So apparently they could pay it all out of their investment profits? I wonder wtf they are planning to do with all the money.
You'll probably get most of the value out of electronics exports from China to the US that currently go by sea when air transport would be too expensive. How much is that worth and how much more would it be worth if you could get it to consumers how much faster?
If you can get a 10% increase in price because you have all of China's exports on store shelves a month earlier it could be big bucks. Unlikely to pay off a trillion dollars but anyway.
You have professionals doing the tweaking now. Publishing a documented interface for you to do your own tweaking seems like a waste of money to both AMD and the game developer.
There's news like this every week. None of these is clearly better cheaper or faster to market than any other breakthrough like it at this early stage. It all evens out to a fairly steady improvement over time. Battery weight and prices still keep halving every five years or so and that's already factored into stock prices, minus some risk.
The company created a subsidiary called ACCUmotive in 2009 to develop lithium-ion batteries.
It built an energy-storage array that is now operated by German electricity joint venture Coulomb.
The system's 96 lithium-ion "modules" boast a combined 500 kilowatt hours of storage capacity, which is used to stabilize the Saxony Kamenz power grid.
There are plans to expand this installation to 3,000 kWh of storage capacity.
That article and many others missed the point. What they thought they'd seen was evidence for gravitational waves during inflation. There are lots of other reasons to believe inflation happened.
Assuming loads of people put panels on their houses, 22c/kWh in the day and 5c/kWh in the night can't last. Presumably day prices would be lower than night prices eventually.
The Tesla Battery's cost $13,000 would pay most people's electric bills outright over it's life.
The Tesla's battery is also 53, 70 or 85 kWh whereas the average household uses around 1 kW (kWh/h) and certainly can get by with a few kWh of storage to handle its overproduction of solar during a day.
In the end, it's just economics. Does solar + battery pay itself back in lowered electricity bills? If it does, nothing else matters.
Before the void was found, a cold spot that large should have been rare enough that it seemed odd we had even one in our sky. With the void explanation it's no longer rare enough in the models that it seems odd we have one.
The difference between 25 and 40 € isn't that big. Depending on where exactly you are and want to go in Helsinki/Tallinn, it may well be more convenient to take a train.
Heck, people ride the metro for nearly half an hour to get downtown for beers. If I can get to a decent Tallinn pub in less than an hour door-to-door I'd probably go now and then, depending on how late in the evening I can get back home.
For those who don't know, alcohol and restaurant food are around half the price in Tallinn compared to Helsinki.

It's still a useful measure of speed; it just hasn't improved in a while.

I just tried and found no old version to remove.
Thanks, this is what I came here to find.

None of the ice lost from Greenland is sea ice.

Pension funds (pdf) cost between 0,1 and 1,2%. Is there a good explanation for this or is Yale getting scammed?

"decent" is a word so the spellchecker in the browser didn't catch it. And none of the Slashdot editors can spell.
I can't imagine the actual technology is real, but apparently the interest is real enough.

Independent failures that pile up can be bad. Of course, just checking the safety for two months is far different from being unable to retrieve them.

Amusingly, Bluff magazine has a ranking of the best HUNL players where he's number one. But he's written the list himself :)
He really is among the best heads up no limit players though.

At least the youtube video in the story is from 2013.
Eh? Around 3,4 now and changing over time. It's just the expansion of the universe, isn't it?
