Perhaps more exact would be 'Canadian' ghost-ship. It was build in Russia, but Canadians are to blame here.

Czech MET lost contract with major televisions long time ago. Not much has changed, except science is now sponsored by state, not TVs.

Similar plant is near my home in Central Europe. It uses the same turbine to generate electricity and push water up 1,670 ft (reversing turbine). Startup time from zero to 650MW is 150 seconds.

I dont like 'predator' connection. We have quotas, planning, protection areas... It is basically farming and agriculture.

Not really, problem is that most people define "work" as sitting behind computer.

Under good conditions one can easily work 70 hours/week and stay productive. But traditional open-office sweatshop with 2 hour commute does not work that way.

At least HFT pushes technical boundaries and gives in something back.

Why so angry? If company in Bengalore can have 70% women engineers, it should not be a problem for well funded startup in US.

Lets be grateful for yuppies and their money. Computers and gadgets are today cheap and widely available. And there is finally no social stigma related to nerds. 'Real hacker' who works on AI, security etc.. has now life easier.

My 4 years old mid range CPU and motherboard supports 32GB. Linux does copy-to-ram for at least decade (Slax, Knoppix...). > My dream machine would be 13/14" laptop Toshiba Portege Z30 supports 16GB RAM, in theory it handles 32

I have the same situation, not worth the upgrade. Maybe in 10 years there will be better CPU. If you want upgrade, buy watercooling and overclock it.

I would probably try to use it for some publicity. Prove if NSA can do some stuff, like breaking SSL certificate. Or you could recover perhaps 30% of your money by mining coins using spot instances. Other option is to donate CPU time to Fol

> Power generation produces 32% of all greenhouse gases Water is also greenhouse gas... Anyway nice island setup, for my taste it is too small. I would add a few square meters and perhaps a generator for doing laundry. And good luck wi

Why sad? XFree86 and GCC had HORRIBLE code, first thing done in forks was to delete 70% of code.

Water cooling from Antec, it fits into regular desktop case. Under load it makes sound like hoover. Some cheap RAM, some motherboard for $200, 500 Watt PSU. I use it for IDE (Scala compiler is slow). No problem with stability, it ran a fe

Parthenon is a construction site right now. Also air pollution in Athens is not so good for marble. Remove the cranes, cut heating oil tax, and we will talk about it ;-)
