You're laughing now. Just wait until Cthulhu returns.
I actually post all my comments via a dead-man's-switch proxy that logs my keystrokes in real time and submits the post once it detects inactivity. This way I can type things like Candlejack and still publish my po
I fail to see how. Even Physics proposes models and then tests them experimentally - you have to interpret the results to see whether they match the model's predictions, and you can compromise scientific integrity by redefining models or ignoring experimental data.
In Mathematics, you make the model, prove it, and you're done.
In the words of xkcd: "e^i*Pi + 1 = 0 - politicize that, bitches."
Streamed video is another cornerstone of fast distribution of information, though. Twitter, text messages and Facebook were essential, but it were the Youtube videos that really let the world watch the protests.
That is exactly what Tor was designed to prevent. Many, many nodes (many of which are way outside jurisdiction) would have to have their logs (which are not usually kept) compromised before you could use timestamp synchronicity to even narrow down the path more than a few hops back.
Well, not that there was anything pure about the tenets of Scientology before people started using them. It started out as it is now - a get-rich scheme.
That means we will soon see the Animal Rights activists facing off against the Natural Food activists. Wonder who's going to win that one. The Organic Produce people know a bit about nutrition so they'll probably have more stamina when it comes to blows.
PETA has nothing, NOTHING to do with protecting animals as a species. Their misguided anthropomorphizing of "fluffy animals in cages" is a view that is about as dangerous to biodiversity and progress as you can get without being an evil corporation.
If they cared about animals more than about making noise, they would invest in habitat preservation for species that are actually endangered, rather than waxing hysterical about laboratory rats.
Contrary to what the summary implies, it's a reprint based on a surviving copy. The actual original from the seventies is going to fetch more than $20, and will probably not be available at Amazon.

Well, you definitely don't want to piss off an octopus that smart.
We need to strike preemptively. War On Seismology! Nuke Yellowstone today!
Yes, like the dozens of times they've pulled it before.
Arrr, I've got me eye-patch already, savvy.

Argh. That is as if XML and SQL had a kid and it was ugly as fuck. :(

Did "open format" and "News Corp" just get mentioned in the same sentence? Even "somewhat"?
Ha. Ha. Ha.

At least Microsoft can finally compete with itself again. It used to be a running joke with Vista.
"MS to leave OS market, XP's competition too strong."

The BOINC project is pure simulation. No actual LHC data has ever been processed by community grids, nor will it.

It's been broken for over a year, being repaired.
Yes, but this energy is concentrated in a single particle. It's a lot more on that scale...

FIGHT! :P
The creators of the Matrix movies failed thermodynamics forever. And this is the result.
Clearest answer I've seen so far.

Stealing virtual items in a MMORPG is not a crime, and at most a violation of the terms of service.
Stealing identities by way of online passwords is not a virtual crime, it's a very normal, plain computer crime.
Whoosh.
This is a thing we call satire.
One thing is certain: Referring to any group as a deptartment (or worse, a deptardment) will not win favor with anyone, top-tier talent or not.
