An idea for an historical fiction. The idea is based on the fact that the allies have known about the holocaust happening(at least in the USSR) since around mid-1941/september-1941(based on crypto analysis records) , and did nothing, a

Paulo ,good article. BTW, there's also lightswitch , which offers really simple development for database apps. And there's .netmf , which lets you use modern ,memory managed language to develop some types of microcontroller system

Didn't xilinz released a high level development tool for fpga, using a c like language? One problem thought, it costs around 5k, so not hacker friendly. And tool I know of is convey-computer which offers tools to develop fpga acceler

This chip will probably cost $8000 or more. equivalent asic's will cost much less.And yes,the problem with ASIC is the higher development cost(NRE), but companies like baysand and especially easic offer low NRE chips with performance&

Another thing that's missing is whether the backlight is based on PWM(meaning flashing at some frequency) and what's it's PWM frequency, Because it causes some people headaches.

Yes you're right ,they are modular. The change christensen refers to is the shift from companies that built whole computers, like IBM - to the IBM pc , which was an assembly of parts from different companies. My guess is that at that t

This could be a huge win for Motorola. Say they control/patent the shell and the communications interface. It's easy and cheap to build. They charge $99 for it with great margins. All this while module builders compete both for p

Not just in the case of cs. It could work on electronics, where building some stuff is relatively easy, given design data. In general, a replication requirement might drive us to build replication tools for each science, which could be q

Since people here talk about the difference of e-cigs and cigarettes , i.e. the lack of effects on MAOI, have anybody tried any juice that claims to have that effect on MAOI, for example "aroma ejuice" ? How were the results for y

Some e-cigs deliver nicotine more slowly, that might the reason for what you are describing. See "A fresh look at tobacco harm reduction: the case for the electronic cigarette" , reference 76.

Today there's plenty of competition in the cloud space. But amazon had a pretty long run without serious competition and had managed to create pretty strong ecosystem, and probably lockup on its platform.

If gps jamming becomes an issue, using some anti jamming(using spread spectrum or frequency hopping) transmitter together with few drones over the city to do signal localization isn't the complicated. Jamming this technology is much h

So basically it's a VM/hypervisor that creates a random key that is stored on the cache or on cpu registers, and uses it to encrypt memory content. similar to tresor[1]. Seem like something that can be usefull for android devices,

One solution to this problems is asking the required information from users, even in advance(say 20 minutes), and in return offer the relevant discount. Do you think it'll work, and is it possible to sell this to drivers?
