That article still mentions the use of mud pulse telemetry, though. Considering the low bandwith of mud, pulling a cable all the way down is probably not an option, or else it would already be done. I wonder if it's possible to use a

Depends on how it's optimized. If a star gets sucked into a black hole but nobody sees it, does it truly make hawking radiation? (Next stop: solipsism.)

If 'fundamental' stuff gets to break P=/= NP, then I don't see why we can't do it in a computer, if only by aping the design. But then P=NP and things get weird.

Alternative explanation for the spike in freshmen interest: the engineering/cs classes are 95% men where I am. Liberal arts has more even mix. Not only is stem widely considered harder and requires crazier time commitments, it also ex

Rather than griping about inaccurate dislikes, I would like to highlight the much, much larger number of books that you will never read simply because you've never knew about it. Go check out the Amazon best sellers list, for example.

Two problems I can see: 1. You'd need a hydrogen source. 2. Exactly how much vapor does it release? Water vapor next to sensitive electronics, in your pocket, can be very bad.

I can see a more advanced version of this being deployed as part of automated admin packages for commenting sites such as reddit and HN. Any comments of sufficiently negative tone gets auto-downvote/hidden/flagged, etc. In fact I
