exactly, edison was the one that burned cats with the "evil" alternative tesla current on public places... and is the one that "invented" electrocution...
so i do find it revolting that his name ends up next to tesla's with the adjective pioneer...pffff
on the other hand, though tesla experimented on wireless power transfer I have not seen any proof that he actually did it... there is much speculation about his work...does anyone have references that he actually proved it was possible?...and also, tesla was seeking for a wireless power transfer, not because he was unable to imagine the "modern" ultra costly and barbaric infrastructure but because he believed that wireless transfer was the only way to provide electricity [and progress] to any how ever distant point of the world... he also talked about some kind of a resonator in frequency with the earths own oscilations that "could" make possible the transfer of power to any point of the planet...one would just need to plug to the ground....
of what the bible says I would not have any troubles with believing god made the earth in 7 days...
I figured it is all about *believing* no matter how absurd the claims are
it's just like flying... if you can avoid thinking of the earth that is rapidly approaching, or how much it is going to hurt when you both meet... then you end up just floating in the air...
then you have waived any and all constitutional privacy rights in any communications or other use of the ISP.'" you agreeing on an abusive clause does not mean they have the right to spy on you... i hope so
I thought that laika died in space from 'overheating", though its temp was about 38C which was 'normal', and then they concluded they needed not only to sustain air temp but provide a ventilator for air flow...
I can't quite bear to buy Chinese while the Burmese military are shooting at monks with the Chinese Government as their biggest backer. hehe right, how can you bear buying US stuff then ?!
I gather it's more of a human right because you can not refuse it to someone based on his origins, colour (put your custom discrimination here), nor because of one's criminal (and served) history.
A man has a right to work and have a job, that's all, it does not mean governments should secure & offer it.
now, a company says he rocks and offers 130k$. You say he'll feel rewarded as other sous-payed chineese suits get 10k$....or just maybe he'll still feel like shit because he's worth a lot more anywhere else & he's going for the world, not where you put him.
I'd give a kid "brief history of time" to read before Ulysses any time...
you know, in a sociological aspect, the world is not any more a few "rafined" gentlement that exchange casual knowledge of poems, culture & history whilst drinking the afternoon tea...
it's more like a few geeks having a casual discussion of parallel universes & wormholes while playing a video game...
but than ofcourse I always found it cool to see a klingon citing shakespeare in an invisible klingon space ship.
in short, arts culture & history is good. science, math & is ok too. you really need not have those prejudices
if my product made a real interesting story on its own I assure you I (at least) wouldn't go and spend +$ on slashvertisments. Would not the techie community you speak of be eager to talk about it already?
so the obvious answer you knew:
"a slashvertissement" is paid for, not always interesting
"a real interesting story" - is... um... interesting
The problem with this approach is that there are many ways [to] say the same thing
that is an idea or a concept. Interpreting an idea or concept in different ways is meaningful only by its context.
ex1 the sky is blue => it's beautifull weather (context: you're making a walk) ex2: the sky is blue => use #0000FF for the sky area (context: graphic work)
this compression/decompression algorithm is tested using strict text-comparison only.A real AI might compress 'The sky is blue today' and decompress to 'Today it's beatiful weather' and not be wrong.
If you say, "the weather is beautifull" to an artist he may draw you yellowish-reddish sunset, which is not the correct interpretation of "the sky is blue" you had in mind" So the context is vital.
I imagine a real AI would evaluate the context and predict what are the next words most likely to be put forward. If it succeded to translate a concept to an another in a meaningful context "the sky is blue => it's a beautiful weather let's get down the nasa shuttle" it would no longer be an AI but an I:)
..this is what I was thinking while going through the lines where he had illusions afterwards.
I don't care for his illusions, did he save the cat?
the cat probably couldn't have escaped on itself because:
- it would have already done so
- though it can jump, it is very low, and getting its head & vital parts caught in the fire would have
killed her trying, while a man being taller can still move while his shoes are on fire, and the head somewhat out of the smoke...
fyi sarkozy puts a french language requirement in use with the immigration that is joining their relatives(wife, husband, father...) in france. In other words, your non EU wife you met while working abroad may not join you in france untill she has learned french properly.(among other requirements) you either fall in love in a person speaking french or your sex life will suffer. (hmm, it seems geeks won't mind it anyways)
... now the question raises by itself: knowing that Edison founded GE, shoud not GE be accounted responsible for the inappropriate actions of its ex-owner? (if theese are proved)..i mean much of its wealth is generated through "unlawfull" appropriation of other peoples patents
Slashdot Mirror
proton beam!
any reference that he demonstrated this? ....besides his patents

to show me the artfacts. I really am not interested in the beliefs of its curator
I always chose the nearest select option, which I believe was afghanistan...
4,568 million years is a decimal number (4.568) for most of europe,
why do you use the comma in that manner anyways?
it's just like flying...
if you can avoid thinking of the earth that is rapidly approaching, or how
much it is going to hurt when you both meet... then you end up just floating in the air...
ofcourse this is very difficult to do.
as a citizen of the world I believe the best military is the one that would not exist
as it is considered to be a separate work of art
High Import taxes ARE meant to deter you in importing the goods, but the message is:
"do not import, invest in the country & local economy, settle your own factory in br.
and thus you will avoid our ridiculously high taxes"
it's all by the book, no?
remove the article all together...

Beeing offered a job is not a reward. A job is just a human right.
theese times though, many people feel rewarded if they have the opportunity
to be employed and exploited.

I kinda thought he paraphrased greenspan ( currently popular in other news)
he wrote. "They swapped principle for power. They ended up with neither."
