Agreed, poor choice of words on my part. I was using it colloquially as concerning legal matters, which was inaccurate.

I didn't disagree with the, "they never show that the text was copyrighted." But I did think it reasonable to point out that there is--in fact--a place to register your works for a registered copyright. You don't have to, but it does give y

Agreed. First, very uncool to mention the wife of your competition ordered a pair. Second, dick-maneuver to not send glasses that a customer ordered and to include a snarky card instead. Much classier would be to have sent the glasses with

I'd actually be interested in running the numbers on this data, but I don't really want to grab actual numbers from at the DOL. Tangentially, I also also find it interesting that yours is the only comment that calls the numbers into questio

Monorails aren't inherently flawed, are they? Isn't it just that implementations are generally older and not particularly high quality? My largest complaint regarding Sim City 4 was that the transportation add-on was almost essential to the

Is that a comment about the free-to-play or about the actual quality of the simulator? If it's the later, carry on, I've not looked at it yet. I think that free-to-play makes a huge amount of sense for simulators. Train Simulator 2012 [1] i

I don't tend to think it's that dangerous, but it's certainly messy. Another couple hours of work could have had proper mounting with nicely routed cables, doors that close and status indicators. It still wouldn't be super safe, but it woul

That's where the whole world is headed. As a general consumer, why have a desktop when you can dock your phone/tablet and playback or stream videos, edit content and browse the web?

I find his concern about losing access to his account interesting because the only feature I get sad that that gmail doesn't have is an easy export/backup tool. Backupify has a nice service, and I realize I could run IMAP either locally o

I really enjoy using duckduckgo, but both it and wolframalpha suffer from slow response time. I'm confident that I could query google, duckduckgo and wolframalpha for any query that all three could answer ("diameter of a quarter" ) and have

Ignoring the zombie blood for a second (because you're absolutely correct) I'll approach your last question. > how common is it for typically impotable water to have these type of compounds? My gut feeling is, "not very... right now." T

The watercone is great for non-potable water that isn't contaminated with compounds that also boil below or near 100 °C and are either in A) high proportion or B) that bio-accumulate. If the preliminary findings with the graphene oxide are

Ah that makes sense, thank you. I may steal that idea for future talks with R. Though, just embedding a shell in a slide deck would be very nice.

I knew, but decided to lump NIH in because it doesn't require any open access to data collected with taxpayer monies.

by tylerritchie 15y ago
For papers you would just do what NIH requires, which is "upon acceptance for publication." Upon further reflection and discussion data would probably be more reasonably published in an open format no later than 1 year after the grant ended

by tylerritchie 15y ago
Really all NIH and NSF grants should come with open access requirements. I would suggest that all raw data be made available no later than 1 year after initial collection and all publications be open-access upon publishing with curated data

I think cost is also a huge factor. But I would be interested to hear from some IT directors. Right now volume licenses for Windows 7 just aren't that appealing cost-wise, especially when you consider that XP does still work . Home users h
