Yes, while the crowd is large, the demonstration is lengthy so people do mill around the machine. You can get quite close and get pretty much any view of the machine you want while it is in operation. Totally brings this to life: http:&#x2

bah, whatever algorithm necessary to implement consciousness is impossible to implement in reasonable time in this universe. Our brains just perform a suitable monte carlo simulation of that hypothetical algorithm.

The article seems to me an admission that the locks were never intended to secure anything and just there to make people feel better. At least the TSA understands that not only are the locks unsecure now, they never were.

Hmm...reading further the problem doesn't seem to be one handled well by EPA standards. The new water supply is more corrosive than the old water supply, so in poorer neighborhoods with lead piping, more lead (sometimes significantly)

The one thing I don't see is the lead levels of the water supply. Doesn't the EPA have limits on that and isn't it an easy thing to test? It is true that different water supplies will have different levels of contaminants (le

Clearly you haven't worked on an old buggy codebase. Sure that function has a bug, but the rest of the codebase has adapted to it and worked around it. If the function suddenly doesn't have a bug, dozens of other functions will fa

Actually now that I think about it, two straight lines, one at 45° and one at 135° would display this problem assuming that the display is not displaying the lines at the correct aspect ratio.

The must be talking about curved lines that intersect at a perpendicular angle. I think that might make sense.

The worst part of working at Texas Instruments is people assuming that you have something to do with the "calculators".

Oh geez, I'm glad I'm the only one with the battery frustration. I've given up and I'm getting the 5x as soon as it comes out and trashing the Nexus 4. Without a new battery, it's pretty much a brick.

There is an entire family of memory elements who's resistance is modified in order to store data. RRAM/ReRAM, CBRAM, PCM, MRAM, as well as many others.

The response in question has a lot of ah, uh's, and stutters: "Relative to phase change, which has been in the market place before and which micron itself has some experience with in the past again this is a very different archit

No, this is not memristors (unless you consider PCM to be a memristor) and it has no relation to crossbar-inc.com. This is phase change memory. https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Amicron.com+%22cross-p...

Actually you should be taking the claims very seriously. This has been an area Micron has been researching for decades. They've had a patent on the memory cell for about 11 years now (US6777705). Phase change memory has for a very long

It seems to be very difficult to find a genuine Nexus 4 battery that isn't already a year or two past manufacture date.

Here in lies the problem. People who don't understand proper testing protocols won't blind their testing. And they'll subconsciously influence it to work. And if it doesn't work, they'll let someone else who is more

I'm really not that well versed, but disorder and complexity seem to be used interchangeably which is incorrect: "According to this fundamental law, entropy - and with it disorder - should always increase with time. This is manife

The issue is that they aren't actually selling magazines. They are selling their story, and how they are trying to rise above poverty. But of course they aren't the ones profiting from their poverty and despair. An entire industry
