I'm suprised that no one mentioned the Underhanded C Contest
http://underhanded.xcott.com/
Quoting their web site:
"The goal of the contest is to write code that is as readable, clear, innocent and straightforward as possible, and yet it must fail to perform at its apparent function. To be more specific, it should do something subtly evil. "
As written above, the result is not so surprising since emigrating is an enterprise in its own right.
Another question is whether foreigners make better entrepreneurs. Doing such a study would need to include those who haven't migrated in order of avoiding a selection bias.
And that's not enough... if you want to simulate each quark individually (after all, you wrote "you take the number of particles").
The number of particles is not relevant.
You can do a one billion simulation of a single galaxy or of the whole universe. The purpose is different.
In this respect, a particle can represent a single star in one galaxy or a single galaxy in the universe. Large scale structures in the universe don't depend on the exact location of each star in each galaxy.
No one has commented about them "breaking the software encryption". I am surprised that it would be so easy to do. Could it be true ?
Does anyone has insight into what type of encryption is used or how it could be broken ? I'm pretty sure it's not ROT13.
I think it does the opposite: such an horrible piece of software prevents anyone from switching to a Mac.
I disagree. You are not a shareholder and you are not entitled a share of the profits. You only get the rewards.
How much do Eyez weigh?
Eyez will weigh less than 200 grams
Mmmm. How can someone find anything serious in this answer ?
Sure, I can compute this number with 2 significant digits. But with a scale which can measure masses to the nearest yoctogram I'd like 24 significant digits ! That's not what I call a Fermi problem. Going back to the original question, a wild guess would be a dynamic of 100. But I can't afford 18 dollars to read the paper. I could pay a yoctodollar, though !
Very interesting. However the article does not mention the maximum weight this scale is able to measure.
I'd love to know how many protons I am made of. I guess this scale won't help !
What do you think of this ?
It was made made by a 45 meter impactor.
Yes, A 45 METER IMPACTOR.
even though we're about 26,000 mi in diameter
Who are *we* ?
A) The fact that he used the breathalyzer and it indicated he was not over the limit is a sufficient defense against a charge of drunk driving.
After an accident, the driver is tested. So this test will determine is he was drunk (or DUI) at the time of the accident.
