Sure. You should read it like this: eldavojohn sends us an article about a discovery by Carnegie Mellon researchers that explains why repetitive studying or training is effective..... From the article:
"In a series of experiments the researchers bla-bla-bla, bla bla, bla bla... ...bla to stop"
Duh!
Could you please enlighten me on how exactly introducing a top level domain is clamping down on internet? What exactly is wrong with great firewall of China and how an.rf domain would be a better solution (or a solution at all)?
Life is unfair. I hate Trolltech. And yet they do it right(at least that's what I can infer from your api description) - AGAIN, while others offer tools that are only good for parallelizing and multiplying pain.
Consider this - what if the intelligence behind UFO events, both modern and pre-1940's UFO events like Fatima or Lourdes - is the same intelligence that appears in stories of Fey folk (elves, dwarves, sylphs, succubi, etc)?
it's the same intelligence indeed. look no further than the mirror in you bathroom
Correct me if I'm wrong, but no US state had 99.36% votes for Bush (with 99.5% turnout). How many Americans faced a dilemma of either voting for Bush, or losing their jobs? There's no comparison between elections in both countries because only one of them can be considered election (rigged or not), the other was just a farce loosely resembling an election.
Dunno who's grandparent, but I can assert that it's common belief among Russians that elections were rigged - we had this belief long before elections, given the way the authorities were preparing for them. And yes, Putin is still very popular. Actually, it follows the old pattern - people don't like what authorities do, but they like Putin. I find this schizophrenia very disturbing, but it's been like that for several years, so I'm not surprized.
They don't really care about subversive stuff. They care about public stuff. Putin's regime is just a Russian version of Wag the Dog. As long as public is convinced, you're entitled to whatever opinion you fancy. Once there's a remote neglible infinitely small chance(or so they think) that you could make people realize that the king is naked, you're in trouble.
A fat share of Russian IT market is controlled by foreigners (Europeans, mostly). And now one American IT company(which were serving Russian market anyway - Wikipedia says 45% of LJ entries are in Russian) is owned by Russians. It sure looks like Russia is gobbling up American companies...
This is almost a text book example of the scientific method isn't it?
No, that's a kind of post you can expect from slashdot. On the other hand, we still don't have anyone welcoming our alien overlords, so we're not at our lowest point
What exactly does it mean to be similar to terrestrial life? The least common denominator seems to be somewhere close to molecular level. Don't be fooled by similarities of mammals - we're essentially one kind of species, a bit finetuned. If you look outside Mammal class, you'll find a lot of weirdness.
The topic of the submission was "Russian Software Piracy Crackdown Restricts Free Speech"
Does it have to be about software? Or is mentioning "software" enough, even if the story involves no software at all? Russia nowdays is a pre-Magna Carta country. When the authorities want to do something to you (no matter what, murder included) they just do it. They also make up some semi-plausible grounds for that, to appear civilised to the outside world. So this time they used a software - don't be surprised to find out that prosecutors don't know what software is. It's like putting "jews eat christian babies" into "children and motherhood" section.

First, they build the computer, than someone posts the link here and voilà - the whole internet is slashdotted.

I prefer the Flying Spaghetti Monster as an explanation. It's just as groundless, but much more fun.

may be this is a correct question: what if Yoda runs IBM?
First post! Oh no, some chimps have beaten me...

And why would they care about non-public entries?

You don't nead to own LJ to do it. You just need to read it. In fact, you could do it yourself
Apparently, slashdot has already scavenged angle brackets - they're gone. Truly the most scavenged code ever.
where are my mod points when I need them...
thanx, dude
