That's a good idea. It would probably be owned by the power company who would also use it to offset the difference between peak/min power usage.
Actually, that is probably a more likely use than in cars. I've heard that one of the difficulties in power generations is the difficulty in storing power generated at one time so it can be used at another time.
I've also heard that you can sell power back to the power company by supply electicity to the grid. The power company is required to pay you for the power you supply. A household could use one of the capacitors to store energy during the night when power is cheap and put it back on the grid in the morning and evening peak usage times.
Although, the idea that they have to buy it back might be an urban legend.
Isn't it more like someone saying, "I represent 70% of your employees. Give everyone a raise or we all quit."
Or maybe, "I have teamed up with 70% of the companies in your chosen field. Take a pay cut to work for me or you are fired and I've seen to it that no one else will hire you."
I've always thought "New Scientist" was mostly junk. If I see something on/. that is scientifically questionable it is usually from "New Scientist". I thought the name even sold itself as being on the fringe. "New Scientist" being a scientist working on new stuff on the fringe that may or may not be valid.
How does Libertarianism deal with groups of people (like corporations) that manage to amass a large amount of power (more than is 'necessary'). Who defines what necessary is? Does Libertariamism say that it is okay for someone to rise through their own ability to the level of a King or Emporer where, by their own self-gained power, they are able to impose their will onto others?
Art is an expression of the artists viewpoint of the world. Art allows us to glimse the way another human experiences the world. In this way, art brings people together and build culture. Nearly anything can fit this description, but if the creator is not putting some personal viewpoint into the creation then it is not art, it is simply a craft.
Of course video games can be art. Movies can be art too, but many aren't. Both of these forms of media are so often filtered through corporate guidelines and commitees that any personal meanings are leeched out. If video games were dirt, instead of a richy earthy top soil you end up with red clay.
Which isn't to say that red clay doesn't have its uses in the world. There have been some very beautiful pieces of art made out of red clay.
And that will mean fewer foreign travellers which will make it easier to run security checks on the ones that do travel here. I wonder if this is part of a larger plan to move the USA to some sort of weird isolationism.
No. The original poster just did not explain himself clearly. I had the same interpretation at first too. Then I realized that even an AC couldn't be that stupid and he meant to say something else.
Microsoft Robotics Studio lets you control the NXT using a variety of languages from C# to Python to Javascript. It does not provide a solution to have more inputs and outputs (unless you want to add a second brick, which it does support).
It uses a tethered architecture though, so the code you write will actually be running on your PC.

It was intended to be funny. I honestly think the IRS would frown on that as a deduction.
I think he meant charge $200 to launch one cremation. If you can put them all into a single launch then the profit margin goes even higher.
Is there any way I can use this to make my next graphics card purchase tax deductable?
I remember hearing lots of talk about how Clinton stole the election and should be impeached from day one of his term.
Not to mention all of the other JOKES he made.
mute point?
all intensive purposes?
doggy dog world?
It is just Google's new crawler.
I didn't use a soldering gun to fix my computer, I used a pencil. You know that graphite can conduct electicity, right?

Put a capacitor in your home and charge it up at night. Transfer the power to your car in five minutes from your trickle charge capacitor.
Although this still doesn't address the safety issues.
The station could have a bank of super-capacitors that are trickle charged throughout the day and then quickly discharge to power a vehicle.
Although this does put a limit on how many cars such a station could power in a day.
You could have such a system at home too.

Maybe they are just borrowing the momentum from a future frame of reference.

I know that /. is famous for dupes, but at some point I start thinking the editors are playing a little joke on us.
Actually, I am using the same 21" CRT from 1997. What is your point?
No external libraries? Did they expect you to write a TCP/IP stack? to get sockets? Or is that considered an internal library?
Completely off topic, but shouldn't old ships with damaged warp drives be showing up all the time with people long thought dead?

But since the photo has energy and energy is equivalent to mass doesn't that mean the photon has mass?
Or should the masses in F = G*m1*m2/d^2 really refer to energy?
Or does that equation not even hold anymore since we aren't talking about Newtonian mechanics anyway?
No. The original poster just did not explain himself clearly. I had the same interpretation at first too. Then I realized that even an AC couldn't be that stupid and he meant to say something else.
ATLAS also automates AJAX development.
The last part of this video shows an asp.net web page being AJAX enables (although ATLAS is not asp.net specific).
No no, Canada is America's ... er... Canada.
never mind...
