I don't think it is a licensing issue, there are plenty of online book sellers who would have been happy to provide Apple with a way to sell ebooks on the Iphone, Apple properly just didn't believe it would be worth enough.

You are right on both counts. I mentally misplaced the comma somewhere, but the point that that machine is no more powerful that what I guess most people here have stacked around somewhere. As for the generic algorithm, you are _also_ right

A thousand hours is just above 10 days (assuming you run on a single CPU), so I guess most of us have a spare computer lying about which means that it should be able to handle this data. As for the 1,000,000 hours? A genetic algorithm that

As long as you are only sending charectors on the paper, you might be right, but you can send physical items in a letter - unlike in an email. And the set of people I want to send mail to intersected with the set of people who have the fain

Unless you are really desperate for people to contact you, forcing them to "decode" the email address might be a nice velvet rope that keeps out those who aren't worthy of your time. Obviously this might not work if you have a customer supp

They properly didn't know whom Arrington is. Most people don't care.

The dorm I live in is behind a NAT, so we all have a shared IP.

Interesting site, but just a friendly word of warning: Pik (with one k) is the Danish word for 'cock', in the porn sense.

What side effects did you get from the shot?

That might work for your, but I have the interesting problem of not being in the risk group in my country but for some reason being in the risk group in the US. So which government should you trust?

Super nice work. I wonder about two things: Did anybody try to contact Yahoo to get a copy of the server content? If you where running out of machines, why not try Amazons ECC? Would be pretty sweet having web 1.0 saved by web 2.0 tech.

Thanks for those links. Hopefully I will now fall for some other traps.

That is true, but would you really want to pay for a service that also beamed ads at you? Most people on the internet are willing to watch ads, plenty of people are willing to pay for stuff. But when you start something that competes with s

That might be true, but those people are frankly stupid.

It will be worth it if they make it as good as cable tv with out ads. Unfortunately they will properly just double the amount of ads.

Not necessarily, just because we have access to better tools in the west doesn't mean that television can't be a benefit to those that have previously had access to none. I believe that, if choosen wisely, television can improve your knowle

Properly, but then the parents would have attended the school in the first place.

Pretty interesting, but I hope no company here is ever forced to take his advice.

You seem to be right, that would be what is happening. So, how do we mass produce medicine?

Yeah, that makes sense - sometimes I really want to smash the media guys so hard. But I also wonder if I person dies in a hospital, isn't shouldn't there be a legal course of death on the death certificate? Because then we might have someth

Well, no they have to catch it from somebody that _do_ have it in the first place, so the real culprit is those who have the decease currently. But yeah, statistically you are most likely to get to sick if you aren't vaccinated but at a cer

Don't down mod the parent - he is only referring to the old comic about what happens when you ask medical advice on a forum. In this case, I think he is wrong though - the people on this board knows more about this particular aliment than d

But that would be the upscale embedded market - your ordinary remote control, microwave oven, light sensor, etc would not need an embedded web server.

Sure tax gets much simpler that way, but given that I can start a company in the UK for a pound, it feels foolish to do it in Denmark (could also be that I love London more than Denmark).

As smart as it was, I have yet to find some software that adds tags to the messages that I don't hate. Mostly because the kind of software that does stuff like that isn't the kind of software I would want to use - but it is pushed on me any

Well it is cheaper than Denmark. If you want the company to assume liability they have to have at least 160000kr - which is something like $32000. Not all of it has to be in cash, but there has to be enough to pay taxes of any income includ

The problem with that is that not using the machine can also cost lives.

That was exactly what I told one of my professors. She pointed out that then I would also deprive the users of the benefit. Never mind that - let somebody really good work on that.

No, not really but given the amount of meta programming DDH made to make ROR possible, I am not so sure.

Is there something wrong with that link? It is only two minutes long for me.
