   "I" meant "cron". The system does this on its own, but it's still a cheap hack. I'd like the crashes to be more predictable, but maybe this is the best I'll ever do. I've spent enough time setting thi

   Do you mine on linux with cgminer? I'm having terrible reliability issues. I have to restart cgminer every hour or else it crashes. Even with this measure, it crashed yesterday night and I sadly lost mining time :)

   That's probably because the author is able to devote less resources per client than Wolfram?

   I'm not too enjoyed by the thought of privately owned drone fleets, for different reasons, some related to privacy and liberty. Keep in mind that not every reader leaves a comment.

   Well, this is technically very difficult. I don't see how it is a new "paradigm" though. It's just a next step in the same direction technology has been heading, no?

   Bravo, but I have one question: What exactly is the "utterly new, insanely ambitious computational paradigm"?

    Then we agree that it is a very risky investment and one should be careful about it =)

    Any investment is speculation until proven otherwise. And by that I mean that "the mass" accepts it as an "investment".

    I read Propaganda last year. It is much less interesting and "magical" than some hype it to be.

    I bought 50$ of bitcoins a year ago. I have sold them this week for 100$. I'll buy back when it's low. At first I thought a deflationary currency was the future. The more I think about it, the more I think bitcoin is just the firs

    Your Google isn't my Google. We're all in a bubble tailored to our interests and habits. It feels awkward to use the engine when someone else's computer - especially non-tech people.

    Good looking, but it isn't immediately obvious why I should pay 10$ for it when software like Adium already does this perfectly well? I might have missed some crucial functionality.

    'Reindeerspotting' is a good watch if anybody's interested. Subutex/Suboxone has its merits, but it's not a silver bullet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reindeerspotting:_Escape_from_S...

    I got 4:56 minutes out of my battery today. I switched from FF to Safari when I wrote the previous comment. It did make a difference.

    Ouch. But I can hardly see why that could reduce battery life so much. The new power-saving features in Mavericks shouldn't, in theory, lower the battery life. The OS should act like it did under SL unless lots of RAM is needed (I&#x27
