But what abstraction is it supposed to be?
According to some googling.. 1000 times the mass of 1 cubic centimeter of water. But then that just comes back to the original problem with this definition. Pressure and temperature effect this definition.
So what are they aiming to set the kilogram as? Many SI units, and measurements we've made, are based around the international prototype.
Are they just trying to define the mass of the international prototype in terms of atoms?
If/when that technology becomes available, it'd be interesting to see what a variety of programs might do if hooked up to someone who is asleep. Perhaps it'd be usefull for Psychiatrists (or Psychologists?).
At my university a recent assignment used a submission system which required one of the files to be a.doc file.
Being an OpenOffice user, I found this annoying. Even more so when the tables in the document became very messy on export to.doc. It make much more sense for large achidemic organizations to use more global filetypes, such as OpenDocument formats or Portable Document Format.
I finished high school in Australia last year.
Comments on teachers from my school were largely accurate, and not all negative. On the whole there were more positive comments.
Wireless might be bad for the possibility of intercepting/pirate signals.
Think of the alternative. A cable comming out?:/
Prone to infection, super ugly, it'd be like a wound that never closed... a head wound at that.
If this experiment shows interesting results then I'm sure someone will go ahead and build one with more neurons. If not, then I don't see how the number of neurons will effect anything.
Theres plenty of replies that make it seem that this machine will give you a 10 second video clip of the person imagining their intentions.
I think it would be more along the lines of finding which parts of the brain are active as they would be if the person was (for example) employing deception. Even then, finding the deception 'signature' of activity in the current thought would probably be quite uncertain.
Thats my thoughts on how it'd work. Likely I'm wrong, but still, it wont be give a video clip or anything so clear as that.
That would require a special camera. This software can be used with pictures from any camera. Just put the square in there somewhere (not hard to make if it doesn't come with one).

Or would you live a few seconds longer?...

One genome's junk is another gene's treasure...
Didn't you know Reading is part of track and field?
Brilliant, except Firefox is Right click -> Save Link As...

I guess bots would have some difficulties with a more conventional ???? step.
Come with me please Sir.
I'd be on linux instead of XP right now if it natively ran as many games as windows...

You know it makes a lot of noise...
It shouldn't be that hard to find, unless your asleep or something.
When I saw the number of fire icons littering the region I was horrified. Then I was amazed at how horrific icons can be.
DNS is not the problem here. Servers just need to be configured more friendly.
There must be an underground civilization of dinosaurs!!
Just like all those movies! We must go and steal their crystals or something!!!
I believe it also built units fast.

Perhaps they should consider that 80 people is a relatively tiny portion of the viewers.
And for the record that baby is a pretty skillful driver.

Well... don't just post it here, send your suggestion into the public consultation!
I think "Next gen" is the next gen of "super" or something...
I imagine google would be in the best position to gather browser stats.
