I really like the idea of pretending that all customers are Mick Jagger and think that it is fantastic, although I now have an image of a pregnant Mick Jagger in my head and I don't like that at all. It is all bulbous and wrinkly, like some

To be honest, I wasn't sure about the whole gyros thing and thought that it was unneeded complexity, until I realised they were also using them for regenerative braking/power. Then I went ooooo... If they are really smart with this, and if

When they learn how to cut bed slats to the width required for the bed, so that they don't fall through when you sit on them, I will be a lot more impressed.

The writer is mentioning the charity, because this case involves that charity. What do you suggest as an alternative? You could remove all mention of charity for issues involving charities, just to make sure that no-one is being emotionally

But at ground level, cosmic radiation accounts for apparently an average of around 11% of ionising radiation exposure and this is measurably affected by the interaction of the solar wind with the magnetosphere according to experiment, or at

In rough agreement with you, but have a quibble about your second point. As far as I understand it, while the lower atmosphere does provide significant protection, the ionosphere does have a substantial role to play as well. Here is a very

Polarity flips take thousands of years, as far as I know. In the middle bit you have loads of poles floating around and the ionosphere is much weaker and very confused, so you get a hell of a lot more radiation at the earth's surface. I als

Would be really interesting to see how much you make off this with your donation model. I wonder how much it would affect income if you used someone other than paypal, or had several donate options. Anyways, good on you for doing this.

The US military might, but they are not in charge, and the military in general hasn't been in charge ever since the city machine subsumed the war machine. [edit] Wouldn't claiming that post-industrial economics is not the problem, by sugges

The bit that surprises the fuck out of me is that they're buying stuff in from China. I've never seen that - ever! Where else are they going to get the chips in the quantities required since the US outsourced most of its commercial silico

In the report I read they were using SQUIDs to make the effect of a mirror that operated in the microwave range. [edit] you could also use a real mirror, is just very hard to move it that fast.

The US is just starting a trade war with China over solar where they are putting a 31% tariff on Chinese panels, which will hugely increase the cost of solar in the US. http://rwer.wordpress.com/2012/05/23/obamas-latest-china-mov...

As far as I am aware, dynamic casmir is achieved by moving a virtual mirror at relativistic speeds to create photons, so I am assuming that if the photons are preferentially directed, there would be a small net force in the opposite directi

However you can just imagine any grouping you like though, by using the power of thinking about stuff. It's a new process they just invented that, get this, lets you think about stuff. It isn't just restricted to thinking about stuff like g

Ethics can be personal though, and there are many different forms, many of which explicitly focus on the result, and many which do not. I still think that it is very difficult to separate the concept of ethics from the notion of harm. Even
