  1. Re:Of course we don't need running shoes on Do We Need Running Shoes To Run? · · Score: 5, Informative

    It would seem that way These Toes Were Made for Running

  2. Re:nice, but... on When the Alarm Clock Runs and Hides · · Score: 1

    Its not exactly the same thing, the MIT clock has a much higher cool factor. The helicopter flies away, but the alarm clock itself stays on the table. You just have to get propeller on top of the alarm clock again to make it shut up...

  3. Re:The link on Pirating Software? Choose Microsoft! · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Holy un-closed tags batman!

  4. Re:And Universities Killed it on Is Computer Science Dead? · · Score: 1
    I think you touch an interesting point, and one that has been bothering me for some time now: the difference between Computer Science, and things like software engineering.

    To me, CS is kind of physics (as a discipline) and SE is kind of like mechanical engineering. Evidently you do not need a physics degree in order to design a machine, but you do want one if you want to reason about how it works or to make a breakthrough in machine-making.

    If the analogy holds, it is clear that there is less (diminishing) demand for CS. Not every mechanic needs a Physics degree.

  5. Street Fighter 10 years after on Inside Street Fighter - The Movie, The Game · · Score: 2, Interesting
    For those who still don't know it: Street Fighter: the later years .

    It's a rather well-done fan flick about Street fighters after the fame has faded out.

  6. Re:Clearly, evolution as a system has failed... on Microwave Experiments Cause Sponge Disasters · · Score: 3, Insightful

    You are implicitly supposing that IQ is a genetic trait, which may not be the case. Intelligence (or the develoment of) could be more related to social or monetary issues.

  7. Sound like the beginning of tuning on Neural "Extension Cord" Developed · · Score: 1
    "researchers in this field are using non-invasive EEG"

    I for one welcome our Emergents of the Emergency Overlords

  8. LASER weapon? on China Tests Anti-Satellite Laser Weapon · · Score: 5, Informative
    From TFA: " ...weather satellite target with a kinetic kill vehicle launched on board a ballistic missile"

    That doesn't sound like a LASER weapon.
