Who wants to live forever, when love must die!
As far as I can see the plan seems to be to create a blueprint engine/rocket which can be sold on the open market, this company seems happy with just making the "pre-cooler" part of it. I suppose the analogy is like…
The BIOS on the original IBM PC totally made it easy to code a homebrew bare metal OS which could access all the peripherals. These BIOS calls exists today in i7 based motherboards allowing OS's coded in the 80's to…
So we need exoflops of computing power to simulate the brain but only 16 bits of bandwidth to make it an AI.. Go figure!
..glug ..glug ..glug ...choke!
NASA has its uses in R&D and pure science but pleeeaaazzz, we need the money going to the SpaceX, Blue Origin and ReactionEngines of this world NOT the $10 million for a toilet contractors they currently have.
Probably a touch screen calibration problem. Still bad though
Its my big bug-bear when developing ARM embedded systems, having to re-learn and re-code libraries every time the chip changes. Just look at the guys struggling with the low level stuff on the Raspberry Pi A low level…
I think we need a new web acronym, DWP - "Dripping With Sarcasm"
I turn fifty in 3 months and love it more than ever. These days I get to design hardware on an FPGA that would take up several square meters of circuit boards in the eighties. Bring on the next thirty years I say..
Even if it doesnt give us a warp drive, the research should be encouraged as it may lead to better understandings of the universe, maths and physics. Seriously though, beyond the "Fuck Yeah I want a starship" How does…
Still read it, but stopped contributing to slashdot a few years back, the slashdot effect had a downside that comments were getting lost in the noise. I dont think nobody has yet solved the problem of comments once a…
Ironically I wrote my first my first web cgi app in turbo pascal in 1995.
This was my future. What went wrong?
There are quite a few arduino users waiting to make the move to 32 bit, arduino are not doing themselves any favours with their delayed offering, the appropriately named "due" and this is the third "arduino" like…
Open source death-ray would possibly work (no I havent read TFA only the title)
University education is the way to go, but 3 years is stupid and you could easily achieve the same thing in a single year in a well structured course.
Generally agree, it would be nice to say "fuck em" but if you dont have someone to support your fuck-em lifestyle then you still need to eat and have a roof over your head, pay for a passport, travel etc etc :-(
Should read "When will this high regulation and litigation era end"
Got to start somewhere if we want a shiny starship
The world is really no longer divided into countries or geographic regions (although politicians like to think otherwise), I feel I have a lot more in common with a programmer in Germany, France or China than the…
Mod up for the quote, unfortunately sums me up nicely!
Dirty, thieving, copying bastards, I hope Apple sue them for everything for ripping off Siri like that!
Oh to be back in the home country where a pint only costs 1/8th of a Raspberry Pi..
Obvious hoax, would be nice if it could be paid in Samsung shares.
