  2. torrent on MIT Warned of a JSTOR Death Sentence Due To Swartz · · Score: 1

    This article convinced me. I will publish our speed limit data on a torrent.

    We have a big database and we want it to be realtime, but it costs $72/month (you know who hosts us) which adds up quick.
    So alas, when the money dries, we will torrent it...

  3. Re:Too Late on PayPal Preparing To Address Frozen Funds Policy · · Score: 1

    I hate that company and always will. Please tell me an alternative.
    I setup a nonprofit (completely legit, but not 501c3).
    They let me set it up, then kept asking for crap I didn't have.
    Then they wanted a deposit which I gave.
    Then they asked for the same (never had em, never will) documents.
    I asked to re-list it as non-charity and they froze my deposit.
    I finally listed them as SPAM and wrote off the deposit.

  5. In medicine, the words microgram and milligram are so confused with deadly consequences that they now use the word GAMMA to indicate a microgram.
    This is why I advocate changing the words micro and milli to now be platypus and doorknob, hence they will say give me one platypusgram of epinephrine which isn't confusing.

    The metric system doesn't "solve any problems". We would solve more problems by standardizing on ENGLISH worldwide, but no one advocates that. It is funny that we have tolerance for everything except the British system of measurement which relates the measurement to the industry, not a meaningless standard of 10.

    Ok, I didn't read diddly squat, but I will go out on a limb and say that the researcher didn't speak to a common audience.

    Researchers need to publish cliff-notes at a level that high-schoolers would understand. We all assume the study was "local" and flawed, but the "cliff-notes" would address that right up front!

    Google is still aok in my book.
    They removed spam from my life, they gave me a free CR-48

    IMHO, all these internet $B companies are too big. Apple, Facebook, et al.
    I imagine Congress will smack them like they did Microsoft.
    Then I hope they move off-shore to send a message to our stupid leaders to
    embrace openness, not their TSA-style future.
