What if it turns on for a very short interval every so often and detects whether there is a power drain. The change in the drop in voltage across the unit gives a clue as to the state of need. Essentially it becomes a sampling frequency and threshold decision problem.
The reason UV radiation causes cancer is primarily because it interacts with (I believe) the CG linkage in your DNA, excites it, and causes it to randomly bond with a nucleotide adjacent to it. Various repair enzymes are responsible for fixing this obvious and easily invertible error, but sometimes they fuck up, thus, cancer.
Gamma radiation is stronger, so I imagine it simply causes all sorts of fucked up ness to happen to various cell components.
However, below the UV range, your cells absorb the power if certain chemical bonds resonate with the frequency, and the vast majority of it is transduced to kinetic energy (ie heat) if it is below the bond energy (which is usually the case). Thus, you mostly need to watch out for thermal effects. If you dump too much energy in, you'll get irritation and burns.
I'll let the rest of you figure out if this means the pads are bad because I am exhausted.
Do you know whether the medical applications of the directed antennae are being realized presently? Is it simply a matter of getting all the side effects research done?
What if you put a capacitor in series with the inductor so that when it's not being used, it breaks the connection AND stores some nice power for you to use for some reason. Perhaps a better solution would be better done with a digital voltmeter controlling a transistor.
I think the real problem with that isn't a technical one (although it would be really really really cool!). If you make it so players have to shut up in a dungeon or whatever, they'll just use an alternate means to communicate (ie telephone or voip). This will destroy immersion and annoy players. The only way this could work is really in a single player game where you have to talk to NPCs in english....
It makes sense in some sense. I was reading a book by Morgan Freeman and he made the following point: Democracy works until the poor realize that they can get shiny things by taxing "the rich" without taxing themselves. Then the country keeps devolving until a civil war breaks out. The trick is for all government programs to be sponsored by everyone accepting a equal (you have to define this) burden. This keeps the government small and thus all taxes lower.
I'm not saying that the fair tax is necessarily the best implementation, but I think that its concept is a step in the right direction.
Hey why not run with that? For at least part of your income tax form, what if we let citizens pick what they want to pay for. You get reduced or no use of some resources if you don't pay.
Volume limiters are not a bad idea at all. Mandating them lock at a certain level is. For instance if I'm listening to my iPod and I walk into a noisy environment, I might want to still be able to hear it, so I kick it up a little. If I have a volume limiter, I can safely say that I am not entering a dangerous region because I decided beforehand how high I'd let it go. It prevents overcompensation.
Electric circuit design. Capacitors and inductors obey differential equations. However you can use a Laplace transform to turn it into algebra. Additionally, the abstract concept of force is actually dp/dt (change in momentum with respect to time). Calculus is everywhere, but smart people simplified it into algebra for the layman.
I was about to say that - you beat me to it. MATLAB and OCTAVE are extremely powerful. Once you get the hang of their close-enough-to-C-to-confuse-you, one based array indexing, and other things, you will be able to compute complex mathematical functions within a few lines and plot them.
Octave is essentially MATLAB without the symbolic toolbox. It hurts sometimes, but when I'm using linux and need to compute something fast, it works really well!
I'm currently doing both design AND programming and I was wondering what people think of dialog boxes used for input. Yea [OK] dialogs are awful, but what other strategies can you use for data? I have a few in mind, but I'm not sure they are as effective.

That explains how they lost so much weight.
I believe the human eye in it's daylight mode has peak sensitivity to ~555nm wavelengths (ie green)
I've already checked you out commander ;-)

Just adjust your fitness function accordingly :P

Which is done by the state not the fed. Who knew?
What do you suggest?
It's not open source for US it's open source for THEM so that they can fix implementation bugs and share knowledge. Open Source != FLOSS

Ahh. In context that's pretty funny.
What are you smoking? How would you possibly store data in these things that is readable by a computer?
It's not automatic. It's a teleoperation system that can be used on the spot.

Probably. I have too.
Question: Are you high?
I'm quite enjoying it though!

The real question is why is there an asymmetric distribution of cluons with respect to bogons in the universe. The world may never know.
