Comment Re:Heomeopathy = Placebo (Score -1, Redundant) 507

Actually not, homeopathic medicine is made from the wrong stuff.

When you make a homeopathic sollutins you observe the symbtoms
and chose a chemical component which would give the same symptoms
if it was given in a concentrated form.

You than add this component to pure water, shake it, dilute it, skate it etc.
Where the resulting remedy have the OPPOSITE effect of the original chemical.

If you know a little chemistry you know Le Chaterlier's principle.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Chatelier's_principle

When you add a chemical to water it will prompts an opposing reaction.
So, water will take on a vibration which is the opposite of the chemicals.
When you add some more water and add some energy by shaking,
then the new water start to vibrate in resonance with the first water.
Then you repeat this process until no trace of the original chemical is present.

Programmable Quantum Computer Created 132

An anonymous reader writes "A team at NIST (the National Institute of Standards and Technology) used berylium ions, lasers and electrodes to develop a quantum system that performed 160 randomly chosen routines. Other quantum systems to date have only been able to perform single, prescribed tasks. Other researchers say the system could be scaled up. 'The researchers ran each program 900 times. On average, the quantum computer operated accurately 79 percent of the time, the team reported in their paper.'"

I consider Google a smart company.

But I don't think they have manage this project very well.

Instead of going trough 150000 suggestion and let the
public vote for 16 made-up projects.

They should have used the wisdom of the crowd to vote for the 150000 suggestions
and have the advisory board chose between the top 100.

What I would like to see is a open funding network.

Where people can post ideas like this, vote on there favorite projects
and where funds can find and support this projects.

ps. yes, I did submit this idea to 10^100.

It would have been better if they
