...in the face of all conventional wisdom in theoretical particle physics...
In which other web page do you think you will ever find a phrase like that? I really love Slashdot today. Talking about "conventional wisdom" in "theoretical particle physics".
Hum... I have the same feelings. In TFA you can read:
And free seemed like the right price to drive adoption among developers (honestly, we're not too worried about folks who elect not to buy failing to return a $5,000 server (we cover postage both ways)).
But in the "Try & Buy Agreement" you can read:
The purpose of this Exhibit is to provide Company, who has expressed a good faith interest in purchasing Sun Products,
with the opportunity to borrow and use certain Loaned Products for a period specified by Sun, prior to making a final
purchasing decision.
and later on:
Company shall insure the Loaned Products against, and upon receipt of an
invoice reimburse Sun for any damage to the Loaned Products sustained during this time period.
Still more:
Upon the termination of this Exhibit or an attached Appendix for any reason, except purchase of the Loaned
Products under Section 6, herein, Company shall immediately terminate use of the Loaned Products, and
within five (5) business days, return the Loaned Products at Company's expense to Sun.
So, TFA talks about average Joe Blogger while the lawyers talk about a company interested in purchasing
In spanish you write: La gente es: Gente => singular, es => singular.
In proper english you write: People are: People => plural, are => plural
And, in improper english I wrote: People is. The origin of my mistake should be clear now. Being gente singular in spanish I assumed that "people" should be also singular in english.
I now work in Madrid (Spain) for a U.S. company and I have previously worked in a spanish company outsorcing jobs to South America. I have also worked for a spanish company being contracted by germans. I mean, I have been working in every side of globalization and I think it is always the same song.
The "strong" country (Note that Spain is "strong" to Mexico, Argentina or Morocco but "weak" to USA or Germany) is always speaking about open markets, and neoliberal economy and blah blah blah until the economic flow starts in the opposite direction. Almost all people from US think it is OK to sell high aggregated value goods as microprocessors to "weak" countries BUT it is wrong to outsource jobs.
The same can apply to europeans. All of us feel confortable with the idea of sell our trains and our industrial automatons to ex-sovietics east-european countries and our ex-colonies in Africa and America BUT we are all afraid of the rumanian plumber and the cheap fruits from tropical countries.
To put it in one phrase, every country in the world wants to be rich. Every country in the world wants to close its own market and wants to open the markets of others.
Slashdot Mirror
I live in London, you insensitive clod!
SAUC-E, the european version of this contest ended yesterday. And the winner is team VICORB, from Spain.
This is yet another one of these scientist confronted with a theory that, if true, will made all her previous work futile.

What's next? The Spanish Inquisition? (Nobody expects spanish inquisition :P )
Seriously, ban science? ban experimentation? what's next? This is the same kind of people who judged Galileo.

Do not trust a CEO.
Hum... let me explain:
Upss sorry, in spanish the word gente, which means "people", is singular :/
Is non US people allowed to send proposals?
Hum... for me, ESA means European Space Agency :/
The failure was ascribed to the textbooks use of English, but who knows if that was really the cause.
Hum... will be a textbook written in Basque useful to you?
You, insensitive clod, don't have a rigth to live if you have to ask why should be anyone worried about millions of people.
Hello, yes, my name is Conner McPolu of the clan McPolu and I was born on the shores of barrapunto in the year of our lord 1524 and I cannot die :P
It looks like barrapunto.com is not enough fun for me while I am waiting for my unit tests to complete ;-)
Whats their timeline on this one , 1 light year?
Actually, 1 light year is exactly the same amount of time than 1 tortoise year.
if "Do something useful" is quite long, I will write it in a separate function ;)
Hum... Both blocks are wrong (for me). I prefer:
//Do something useful here
bool bSentinel = false;
for (i = 0; i < 100 && !bSentinel; i++) {
for (j = 0; j < 100 && !bSentinel; j++) {
if (sc[i][j] == ch) {
bSentinel= true;
}
}
Hum... that is why exceptions were invented.
