sounds like a job for Watson - or at least a slightly modified version.

I guess they could re-use that hand which is currently used to press the buzzer to, say, feel your balls when you opt out of the x-ray.
just back-up during the 'visible' time. Does provide some limitations for an immediate restore, but better than driving to Austin to get the tapes......
The 1.3 seconds to the Moon would drive most computer communication protocols nuts, especially since they won't know if the other end has even received a packet for a bit more than 2 and a half seconds.
I've worked with some military communication devices geared for Internet Protocol over half-duplex HF and they work just fine. While it's not 1.3 seconds latency, the problem is similar with half-duplex. You could easily have full duplex comms, and the need for forward error correction, Automatic Request for retransmission (ARQ) etc wouldn't be as high.
of course you wont be playing COD4 Black Ops and getting headshots......
Building on that,...... search could actually resolve (in a DNS way) IVP6 when segments of the network dont support it. Think of google being the 'portal' that IPV4 users use to access the IPV6 internet.....

Coffee keyboard spill on isle 5.

I'm pretty sure a device that took electricity and emitted a stream of matter would be damn interesting.
I expect it would look something like this:
Can they just move upstream and make game good development environments that 'everyone' can use - with the licences for nintendo things like mario - and sell these to the developers for a few hundred bucks? maybe new customer can use the tools to create and on-sell the games for $2.
either that or make games for the mobile platform that are better, and similarly priced, and go for volume?
Agree. This approach will stifle innovation in the US.
I'm going to put forward this argument next time my mother uses famine in Africa as the reason I should eat my vegetables...
What they call "leadership" is worth nothing.
wow. just wow.
That said, doing martial arts as a kid is a wonderful way to learn self-control, among many other benefits.
So does "doing" musical instruments.
Any sport, for that matter.
And any activity that requires concentration and diligence.
I born in New Zealand in the 70's, played saxophone (badly) age 10-12, then delivered newspapers to people at 5:30am age 14-17.. does that count?
