  1. Re:RAM?? on Australian Researchers Demo Random Access Quantum Optical Memory · · Score: 1

    RAM is not about O(1) read latency. Quantum information can be read only once, so _on-demand retrieval of arbitrary quantum states of light_ may prove useful in quantum computation.

  2. Merging on MS Word 2010 Takes On TeX · · Score: 1

    I'll consider using Word as soon as I can use git to track changes in documents and effectively resolve merge conflicts.

  3. Re:Plato on The Universe As Hologram · · Score: 1

    In universe hologram what we perceive as a real object is actually a projection of its shadow. We need another few thousand years to make full circle.

    Well, can owner hire some Asian company to do it?

  6. Re:256byte demos on Programming As Art — 13 Amazing Code Demos · · Score: 1

    Comparing it to "modern programmers" though is sort of like comparing a Sudoku expert to a professional
    in applied mathematics. The Sudoku expert will probably outclass the generalist at Sudoku but I wouldn't
    describe it as putting the mathematician to shame, nor would I trust the Sudoku expert to work out some
    difficult integrals for me. You forgot to find some car analogy. It is like comparing guys from "Pimp my ride" to a car designer.
  7. Re:Data corruption on ISPs Inserting Ads Into Your Pages · · Score: 1

    > If this continues then someone can write a plugin for Firefox to stop the adverts.

    Adblock Plus does it's job. I'm often surprised to see that somebody has ads on pages which I didn't explicitly allowed to display them.
