Stop using Windows for handling anything remotely sensitive. I fail to understand why this is considered an extreme measure when the reality is that it's simply prudent.
I think we collective don't really stand much of a chance against nature's natural selection.
In the short term, this may reduce mosquitoes, but long term? Probably not.
We are on the verge of accidentally destroying the global ecosystem after accidentally putting a giant hole in the ozone layer and you still doubt humanities capability for destruction of some bugs?!
The top AMD chip has 40MB of cache which is enough to run an entire Linux distro from cache alone. However, if you use it's virtualization technology then you could have an entire Beowulf cluster on a chip.
It turns out that AMD has been reading my weekly email demands this whole time!;)
Encoding information in DNA is just one step toward achieving a larger goal: data logging into cell genomes. What Seth Shipman is trying figure out more about our brains like how neurons determine which type of thing to become. From his own page:
Yet, despite identical genetics, the neurons in our brain are remarkably diverse at the molecular level – diversity that defines unique cellular properties (think morphology, localization, projection profile, and neurotransmitter type for example) that can be used to classify the mature cell into a category of cell-type.
Children have underdeveloped immune systems and are the least hygienic humans so this makes them most vulnerable and likely to spread disease. It's worth noting that the elderly are also highly encouraged to get annual flu vaccines because they have failing immune systems and it's far more likely to kill them and the elderly people around them.
That said, it's wise for everyone to get vaccinated against that which they are most vulnerable too and most likely to contract (i.e, the seasonal flu)
The web isn't suddenly locked down and all browsers must be closed source now. If you don't want to use DRM, then don't go to DRM enabled services like Netflix. You are not entitled to anything Netflix, Hulu, etc has to offer.
The social value of the Web is that it enables human communication, commerce, and opportunities to share knowledge. One of W3C's primary goals is to make these benefits available to all people, whatever their hardware, software, network infrastructure, native language, culture, geographical location, or physical or mental ability.
I run Linux on PowerPC and can see everything that complies to standards on the net just fine. Who is going to port their DRM to Linux let alone PowerPC?! I can't watch Flash stuff but it's also not an open standard. However, with the EME I cannot watch several platforms despite complying with every standard.
I have zero problem with those companies withholding their services from me but I object to mere suggestion that they should be able to claim that they are complying with open standards. There is no standard interface or format for CDMs which is a problem because the EME is specifically designed for them.
However, one of the possible outcomes of climate change is more extreme weather patterns.
I don't mean to come across as pedantic, but the issue with "climate change" is that we don't know what will happen.
Regardless of how it changes, what we do know is that a rapid change in the climate will have devastating ecological consequences. These changes are happening over the period of decades instead of thousands of years meaning that organisms have a much lower probability of adapting through evolution. What this means is that mass extinctions are going to take places and it will have a serious impact on humanity.
Will we see more powerful storms? Will we see storms where we don't normally? Will we see more storms that are less powerful? Will we see fewer storms that are more powerful? Will we see stronger winds? More moisture?
The logic is, if it can be tied to AGW, it is and is "Climate Change". If it doesn't fit AGW, it is "weather".
The difference between weather and climate is time. What we know is the oceans are getting warmer and that's a change in climate. However, one of the outcomes of climate change is more extreme weather patterns. It's climate change regardless if it's good weather or bad weather because weather is a local phenomenon.
This is why it is hard to have rational discussions on the merits of AGW, causes and effects. The Greening Of Africa is another great example ignored.
Getting particular predictions incorrect does not diminish the point that the climate is changing. What we do know for sure is that the oceans are getting warmer at an alarming rate.
Grow some balls and take back your kleptocracy from Dear Leader Putin and then maybe someone will believe you when you say you aren't a vehicle for Russian government malware.
Easy to say, difficult to do. For example, the US also has an oligarchy problem and while you are free than in Russia, you are quite incapable of causing actual change. If you are advocating for violence than I would point out that you should take your own advice knowing that you will most certainly end up dead.
This conflates accessibility with actual use under the term "popularity". I have yet to hear anyone say, "hey, did you watch that show on Amazon Prime?" but I've heard plenty of people talking about stuff on cable tv. Similarly, I have yet to hear anyone talk about how they eat their own shit for dinner despite 100% of people having access to their own shit. -_-
The fundamental problem here is that the first amendment let's you say what want without being jailed. What it doesn't do is ensure that anyone has to listen to you. Secondly, you are talking about twitter, a private forum that can make up any rules that it wants or even violate it own rules without cause.
My cellular phone has a charge that's measured in weeks, not hours. My cellular phone isn't a battery sucking brick that can't even have it's battery swapped. My cellular phone is for talking and on occasion texting. It was less than a hundred bucks and I spend very little on a monthly subscription. Your handheld computer (sold under the guise of being a telephone) may be "smart" but it makes fools of it's users.
Most people know that most businesses fail. There are numerous reasons why this can happen but that's not being discussed, what is being discussed is that "shit doesn't work out for everyone" which is kind of a "well duh" type statement.
...what are they afraid of them learning on the open internet?
It's a phobia that is similar to the frothing at the mouth defenders of the US Constitution's second amendment. They feel if they give even an inch that it will become an unstoppable force that ultimately destroys them thus they must not let up in allowing even the most minor of concessions. People can be reasonable but some individuals just aren't.
At this point, premade UAVs can easily be reprogrammed to be fully autonomous (with minimal skill) and microwave jamming won't do anything to stop it. What's really needed here is for the prison guards to actually... guard the prison. -_-
Stop overreacting. How do crazy people like you come up with this garbage? Seriously though, they don't need this stuff because the NSA is already listening to your every word thanks to the radios in your fillings.;)

True but anyone looking to undermine their own marriage really isn't deserving of money let alone pity.

After flagging the trades as suspicious through data analysis, the SEC traced them back to Yan.
The SEC was already on his trail by the time they found out about his search history.
But why not adults too?

Whatever. How big are her jugs?
Canada has... different priorities. ;)
Julie Payette is a high-quality person and I applaud her transparency. ;)
Are people the enemy?
No, DRM peddling corporations are the enemy.

That's not even half the problem. The W3C's own mission statement states that:

Those all sound more extreme to me, so...

To be fair, Eugene Kaspersky did meet with Russian intelligence, but they only discussed adoption.
Someone's finally going to adopt Eugene? Aww, that's cute. ;)
and really shitty for everyone else who runs servers on a reasonable budget. It still appears AMD is going to take the server market.

I cannot help but wonder - since the whole planet agrees on the basic principles of free market capitalism...
You have made a very incorrect assumption.
