  1. Which LED bulb ? on Europe To Ban Halogen Lightbulbs (theguardian.com) · · Score: 0

    Which LED bulbs last longer than fluorescent bulbs ?

  2. Re:Interesting question ... on Interviewing Experienced IT People? · · Score: 1

    This brings me to think: How many is N^2 ? Yes, I am only 23, so not enough experience with these figures.

  3. Re:Link to current status page on LHC Shut Down By Transformer Malfunction · · Score: 1

    Me idiot, the webcam really got me for a while :) The first problem I was thinking about, was that "Isn't CERN in Europe ? It should be dark there now" and then the black hole strike, I really did shake a little :)

  4. Re:Transformers... on LHC Shut Down By Transformer Malfunction · · Score: 1

    In deference to relativity, perhaps they are exploring another aspect of this?

    Still, the best note on that site is the "Without Financial Support, I May Shut Down. ".

  6. Re:ban wifi? what about other technologies? on UK Schools Bans WiFi Due To Health Concerns · · Score: 1

    Just to compare 802.11b at 2.4GHz can do about >400 meters in the open space with just 100mW, but inside schools where there may be more Access Points spread around they may operate at 1-10mW. Also, when these APs are not used (and well configured and connected) they produce only beacons every 1000ms with a (I take a guess) 500ns (?) burst. That leaves us with 0.005 mW average power.

    GSM cellphones have a rating of 1W @ 900MHz band even though though they run at much lower powers if you are in a good coverage. Some may argue that you don't use phone too often.
    Cellphone BTS are interconnected at some higher frequencies(6GHz ?) at some higher powers depending on distance between them, I would say it is miliwatts or watts in the cities but tens of watts in the country side. These are running 24/7.

  7. 9/11 on The Ultimate Net Monitoring Tool? · · Score: 1

    "use as big a key as possible (within acceptable performance)" - I would say also as big as allowed, there are some laws that set a restriction to key size(as far as I know).
