Sadly the journal reference isn't freely available. My first question with these new discoveries is always how much do you need to use to get a reasonable effect. Doses as low as 0.2 microM were effective, 90% lethality, against some of the

I agree that the potential consequences of a breach would be significantly greater with robots than with human soldiers. Most of the wars I'm aware about during the past few decades have been highly asymmetric technologically or have been b

The vulnerable part will be the communications. If an enemy can decipher the communication channels then they can send false instructions. Having said this how is it different to the situation today when the soldiers are for the most part

I wasn't doubting the accuracy of the article in claiming the statement was on the reprap site. I was doubting the accuracy of the statement. I don't believe we're unable to manufacture 40% of our proteins.

Currently the project remains some way short of that holy grail. Bowyer estimates that Darwin can replicate about 60% of itself, and he even extends the Darwinian evolutionary metaphor to this figure. According to the RepRap website, "this

Strangely the paper makes no reference to any correction. Instead stating that, "Traders had equal access to capital and information, and their risk limits were determined by their track records." The methods give no further information on

I believe the paper discussed is: http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2009/01/12/0810907106.abst... There is this related paper which looks interesting: http://www.pnas.org/content/105/16/6167

This is a really interesting counter-adaptation. I wonder what the mechanism might be. Does it prevent echolocation or is it eliciting a pain response? It would also be interesting to see the counter-adaptation in the bats to this counter

As described I don't really see how the solution proposed handles DoS attacks any better than a lock out after x failed attempts. The key to preventing DoS attacks is that the throttling is specific to a given host so that when the genuine

"Despite the immense secrecy, reports have leaked that the limo also comes with a 10-CD changer . . ." All that tech in there and he'll only have 10 CDs to choose from? Seems a little dated.

Thanks for posting this. Unfortunately it doesn't really add much detail. Have you had any luck in tracking down more details? There are some gems though, "According to recent reports, images of sexually abused children available on-line

I would expect they're preserving bacteria at -80 and not growing them at -80. You need very cold temperatures, -80 and storage in liquid nitrogen, to maintain the viability of a bacterial culture during storage.

They also describe zopa as "a human-centred way to loan money to people in the developing world." Zopa is a great service and I would happily recommend it but the UK, USA, Italy and Japan are not developing nations.

I've never really understood that argument. Assuming that your site is totally down when your server goes down and that you rely on jquery so heavily that loosing it essentially renders your site unusable it doesn't seem to matter how muc

Actually I wouldn't be all that happy with my password sitting around on the server for an entire second. In computer time, for want of a better phrase, a second is actually quite a long time. Perhaps switch to 'the instantwe receive it i

If it is backed against another currency, presumably US dollar, don't you avoid this problem? If you put in USD1 you get out small-town-dollar1.1

"A lot of the requirements are driven by regulatory mandates. If you're a financial services company, you can't have a datacenter with no roof." Does anyone have a reference to the regulatory mandate that stipulates that a datacenter must h

Sounds like these are custom selections rather than a straight track for track copy of an album. I could be reading your comment incorrectly though.

In that case it sounds a lot like what I'm doing but on a bigger scale. I would definitely be interested in seeing your recipes.

I'm a little unclear on what you do. My understanding with OAMC was that you cooked the meals (once a month, obviously) and then just reheated them on the day. Reading your post it sounds more like you just prep the ingredients once a mon
