Placebo's were not invented for use in clinical trials, they existed hundreds of years before them. They refer to medicines given "more to please the patient than to benefit them".
In clinical trials, it has been shown that sugar pills, when compared to nothing, alleviate pain. Additionally, different forms and colors of inactive pills have varying efficacy. There is also a correlation between price and efficacy. The effect demonstrated by this, the psychological effect whereby the thought that you have received medicine leads to some of the effects one expects, is referred to as the Placebo effect, and it has been clearly demonstrated many times.
A change in the psychological mechanism that leads to this effect could lead to a change in the magnitude of the effect. I really don't see what the fuck the PaIMD is quibbling over.
Well come on now, you can hardly call PS3 OtherOS an incubator for games when it runs unaccelerated 2d Linux games. And most graphics cards today (I see one on Google Product search for $60) have S-Video. An S-Video to RCA converter is like $10 bucks.
Well, not really, at all. With no hardware access and no accelerated graphics, and all running under virtualization, PS3 OtherOS didn't really provide a platform for small developers.
That problem is definitely an important one though.
No, re-read his post. You got an intelligent response to your previous comment, and then echoed the same response yet again. The similarity is in the decision making process forced on the 'victim'/'consumer'.
Yes, because Google has certainly abused that ability before. That is why nobody uses GMail or Google Search! Because of the horrible privacy violations.
Oh wait, never mind, not everyone is a paranoid schizophrenic.
Electric companies, water companies, and gas companies DO let you take as much electricity, water, and gas as you want as long as you pay by quantity. Which is what you do for bandwidth on a cellular network. Stop acting like cellular data bandwidth is free.
"Many employers are concerned about liability related to the employment of international students in the United States due to changes in federal laws governing non-citizens. This handout is provided by the Office of International Services (OIS) at the University of Pittsburgh to address concerns employers might have about international students and work. If you have any question, please call 412.624.7120 and ask to speak to an Immigration Specialist."
Yup. Sounds like advising against hiring US students to me.
As far as I know, AMD and Intel aren't even building new chips without virtualization. Their goal is to make it ubiquitous so it can actually become a consumer technology (for virtual pc stuff, anti-virus vendors etc).
You best be trollin. His analogy makes perfect sense, if you missed the point you are an idiot.
We all get to use public goods, the people who create them get an additional incentive to prevent the freeloader problem from causing everyone to say "someone else will do it".
They are going to give 57% of the profits. 57% of the profit from selling property that they are saying ICANN should give them? They better give far, far more than that if they expect any sympathy.
Not to mention, this use is pretty idiotic. The TLD name should have some relation to what sites using it are actually for.
Have there been prior mass deletions? I don't see it as likely that there have been previous publishers who gave permission to publish electronically and then changed there minds later (which is the case with Animal Farm and 1984).
True, but in this case the conclusions of the study might merit some fun-poking. This isn't rigorous research, this is using a model based on cellular automata to make real-world predictions. It may provide interesting insight, but you can't really say human decision making can be reduced to a simple set of rules.
No, just make an account under some alias, upload the photo, mark it "Own work by uploader", put it under CC or public domain or whatever, and you are good.
That is really not true. Fancy gear won't take good pictures if you can't manage to set everything to auto yourself, and a good photographer MIGHT be able to squeeze off a good shot with a shitty camera, true. But having better gear generally makes a huge difference in the quality of the picture.

Also, it isn't related to the TCP/IP stacks, or the teardrop attack. It is a totally unrelated except that it causes a BSoD.

C'mon, we all realize by now that you can get an extra "+1 insightful" for free by saying "Before you mod me down..."

The original PS3 had A (to an extent)

PS: development machines and SDKs costing thousands of dollars tends to hinder free development.
So, you've never had a scratched disk and been forced to shell out another $60 bucks to get a game you already own?
I also find it offensive and painful when I can't run my own code on my computer.
NZ is probably right-to-work rather than employment-at-will. There are states in the USA that require a good legal reason to fire someone.

The difficult part is probably the parallel processing needed to achieve these speeds.

That is bullshit.

I really, really hope that both Apple and AT&T get fucked for this behavior. Blatant trust behavior like this cannot be allowed.

Of course it does. (... double checks)

Probably procedurally generated server side, lest we end up with "all totems in one spot" hacks and such.

Short answer? Yes.

We see bacteria do it all the time, in very clear repeatable ways.
Word soup? Have you *HEARD* German lately? Most of their speech is made up of huge conglomerations of words and prefixes and suffixes.
For example, the word for CPR in german? Herzkreislaufwiederbelebung (heart-circle-run-again-enlivenment).
