Yes, it was in my submission but apparently edited for brevity. TL;DW?

Yup. Progress in clock speeds has pretty much slowed down, and Google appears to expect future performance enhancements to come in the form of parallelism

I'm sure this study is testing cultural bias, not human propensity. In Japan, for example, it's considered rude and direct to look into someone's eyes, and many people look at the mouth, or even slightly away.

Email lists are regularly stolen from ecommerce and info sites, as anybody who owns their own domain for email and can give out single-use email addresses knows. I report it every time it happens, and I've only gotten a positive response once, from Walgreen's Photo. Everybody else either fails to answer or points me to their privacy policy (as if that somehow prevented them from having data stolen). My suspicion is that there is a back-door or two in popular mailing-list software that ecommerce sites use; it can't be *that* many corrupt insiders stealing and selling email addresses to have actual human inside involvement.

I remember having this discussion with people close to the principles about the NCP to TCP/IP transition when the 32-bit (four octet) address size was picked.
The sound bite was that it's bigger than the biggest European phone number, so they planned ahead for a time when there would be as many computers as phones, which seemed way enough. (Remember, NCP had a hosts.txt file that listed all the hosts.)

For DNS, they designed an hierarchical system, but events overtook the hierarchy and people got fetishistic about names, leading to most names being in ".com" and being public-facing. The original theory was that the hierarchy would be more important, with more hosts in organizations and so on.

But on the IP side, the segmentation with subnetting (and later, classless subnetting) made things more complicated, so it became possible to run out of IP addresses even though there were still plenty available, but fragmented. Along the way with all the subnetting routing got more complicated and there were a few routing table crises that required new algorithms and lots of new designs, and that pretty much works miraculously now, but doesn't solve the walled-off inaccessible IP address problems.

If you can figure out a way to transparently change who firewalled-off Class A subnet over to a non-routable private net and then release the class A net, you could reset the clock back to the problem IPv4 thought it was solving and become a zillionaire in the process.

nobody gets it anymore...you have to say hadoop cluster now.

We called it "mail" and "netmail."

When I got to MIT in 1979 email had been in use for a long time. Both " at " and "@" were in equal use on ITS to send mail over ARPAnet via NCP. I'm not sure what this guy is claiming about having invented email in 1980.
