When is the last time you had sex? The average bonobo chimp gets laid every hour and a half. I'm willing to bet you'd not bother with facebook if you were getting enough action to chafe daily.
They finally decided on communist? Last I heard Obama was a fascist, I think they switch on thursdays.
I'd like to add: Obama is a muslim Obama is a terrorist, or is handing the country over to al-qaeda God isn't a fictional character. The moon landings were fake. Obama shot JFK and Lincoln. The world was created in a week a few thousand years ago. The world is flat. The government installed cameras in the colour red.
The reason the standard is being broken is because they are using flash which essentially walls the data away obfuscating it (the opposite of open). And blind people have 0 access. So.. that's what the standard is for. So really, you don't agree with him.
I could see this becoming popular for small OSS projects. These can often have an IRC channel or 5, A website, Possibly a google group, a forum, a bug tracker, a gitorious site, a wiki, email, IM, and i'm sure other things.
If this Google Wave thing gets good robots and cuts the crap in half it will be incredibly useful to small OSS projects. Not only will it be less of a pain but it will make the project more efficient and better in general. I've seen plenty of situations where half of the info sources are out of date.
Some good tools would be importing data in a nice manner from a variety of sites. If it can just import a wiki then we will see people change much faster. Other things would be tools for programmers generally, ability to post code in a nice way, with the dif highlighted. Or perhaps something to make a todo list.
That said it is all in the implementation. If they make it easy to add toys I can see it being used quick. It also needs to be open, private wikis spread since people can make their own. It doesn't matter if it still goes through google so long as users have a way to implement it in their OWN way on their own site, so it has to be customizable. Making an OSS client for this would help, they are replacing types of communication that can be accessed from lots of places. I also think integrating feeds of different types would help, maybe be able to email into the wave or read through email. Access through a phone ap. Basically for it to go well they need to integrate and eat all the forms of communication they are competing with. They'll be hard pressed to make this work unless the are competitive individually with each type of communication.
There are a lot of little things that need to go right and I doubt it will happen first try. But I believe this type of integrated, combined interaction is the future of small group communication. And I haven't tried it myself.
Except for if you have something to say in twitter you can't... making it more of a waste of time than other tools. At least it might waste less time by not allowing you to say much.
God you are dumb. Changing speed to amount of weight you can pull is simple gearing. If a setup can go really fast you can re-gear it to pull heavy things. Since the motor is comparable to racing engines we can make one comparable to the biggest trucks. I mean Jaguars have truck engines in them these days... God you are dumb.
Ouch your infrastructure must suck:/ I live in Canada and definitely get worse weather than Ohio. Probably in heat and cold and precipitation. I get maybe a couple hours of outages a year. Earlier this year we had enough rain that floods ruined houses and swept away some cars but we only lost power for about 2~3 hours. I live in a city mind you. Though 5" is regular snow... I've gotten over 50cm in a day (20inches).
I don't understand why oil lamps would continue existence in Ohio... Perhaps people in central Ohio are very backwards but... There are these things called flashlights, don't need to buy them oil, no risk of fire and no glass. Also they are brighter and cleaner. You can flip them between directed light and area lights. They probably hasn't been good reason to use oil lamps since widespread electricity. I have seen one probably 15yrs ago now but it was bought because it was funny not to actually use...
For your example situation that hasn't happened to me in my lifetime, the longest time I've been powerless is during the 2003 north america blackout. I'm more worried about being attacked by ninja's than having regular power outages after 9hour drives such that it'd effect my life.
2-5 days at a time is common??? I've been to place up north where bears and moose walk the streets and that would never happen. Electric cars will likely roll out faster in 1st world conditions. I doubt wherever you live where you need candles and oil lamps.... has the electrical infrastructure to support electric cars. Seriously where do you live? 1920's Alaska? I know places where there arent roads to and you have to take a helicopter to reach... and they would be insulted if you thought they used oil lamps, though their internet sucks which is almost as bad as not having flashlights yet.
Assuming a 5hr charge time you would get 100miles an hour of charging. So if you got home after a trip from Detroit to Philly then took a shower and took a dump you would be able to drive those 50miles.
Really 500miles translates to 9 HOURS of driving with no breaks. You shouldn't be driving much more than what a car as described can do. I'd like to think that if you did say 13hours of driving in a day. That you would take at least two 1 hour breaks. And you might say HAH I've done more than that before on a road trip. I must say, I don't think that is a necessity for a car. And safety wise I don't think it is a good idea either, even if the vehicle could manage.
No. Electricity produces in a very efficient factory is and will always be much much cheaper than in a car. I mean if that were the case couldn't you just stick a gas generator in your house? I'm pretty sure that nuclear power will provide energy at a fraction the price and I doubt there will be and major issues over growth. This is not an issue in 1st world countries.
That said I have heard stories about corruption in the US over energy. I believe some company in California was producing rolling blackouts to increase the price or some such.[citation needed] But that doesn't have much to do with supply and demand.
I believe laptop and phones batteries are scaling up to cars. In fact they are either rip offs of laptop batteries or cordless drill batteries atm. And laptop batteries learn from phones. It is hard to compete on battery tech when the industry sells 1m hybrids a year vs 1.1billion cellphones and 70m laptops.
In any case improving battery life will help make a lot of products better. I think once life gets long enough we will work on eliminating cords with wireless power so you NEVER have to think about it rather than once a day giving you even more freedom. I don't know if I'd want wireless charging tech on my car though, that s a lot of energy in the air. Mebbe an automated robotic plug underneath.
Learn to read. They say the new battery type is expected to be completed in 2 years. Following that there will be a mass exodus. They never give a time-line for the exodus itself.
Sort of an interesting idea. We know evolution proceeds in quick leaps ever once in a while. While I'm sure much of these had more to do with temperature and oxygen levels. But I bet certain cosmic events could act as a catalyst for evolution. Even if cosmic rays aren't necessarily one of them.
I really don't think this was intended for end users. You could have all media saved on computers over the course of a week. Whining that you wont get that seems extreme. Also I doubt HD vids on netflick are 20gigs.
Most unis don't handmedown textbooks. You can buy used ones where you can check if ppl wrote in them or get new ones.
That said I think I would need 3 or 4 kindles easily for this to work out for me. I like looking at lots of things at once spread out over my desk. I also often stick a pencil in the reference section in the back so I can flip to it quickly. I think I could probably handle a half dozen kindle at once really. And I don't have 3 grand to drop on something that doesn't give me much of an advantage. Going to class though I'd probably only bring two.
This isn't a lesson about javascript. It is a lesson we should have learned from Bobby Tables a long time ago. This shouldn't have been possible regardless of javascript.
Slashdot Mirror
Was it worth making the account just for that?
I guess at least with slashdot you can count on a dupe and use the joke twice.
I think I know the point you were trying to get at...
I believe you could paint yourself with aluminium and wear a faraday cage as clothes from when you go outside.

Damn, you are even better than a real psychiatrist. They generally have to see a client before blanket diagnosing ADD.

Electric motorcycle KillaCycle: 1/4mile in 7.8seconds @ 170mph
It sounds like a pod racer and launches about as fast. They intend to get it to 560hp and under 150lbs for their next run.
Here, watch an electric car obliterate some exotic sports cars (This is old btw, electric tech is advancing fast): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqqtJpfZElQ&feature=related

Misuse of a trademark. And it could count as libel depending on how people feel about this. So yeah this could be illegal.
You are too LAZY to leave a piece of plastic in the car when that is clearly the only place you will need it?
Denial much?
I'd take an extra 9 of reliability any day over either of these things.

This is why the engineer engineers make fun of us in software engineering. :(
