What does the Skilled Occupation List have to do with this?

First of all, I would make it so you can press the Enter key and it conducts your search. Forcing people to either tab or navigate their mouse to the button makes it a little annoying.
The best part about Graffiti was that you didn't have to watch the screen while entering text. When I travelled across Europe by train, was able to look out the window and enjoy the scenery while I wrote my travel diary on my Pilot (actually a Handera TRGPro with a compact flash slot). I didn't have to move my hand like I would with a paper diary. I didn't have to key my eye on the screen for when I hit the wrong key or auto-correct decided to change what I meant to write. It was a very liberating experience.
If they are anything like their previous product, very limited, and not useable.
We tried to use the goggle setup they have sold for years. They sucked, the Dev kit was horrid, and the goggle device was buggy as hell.
Maybe by the 5th generation they will get them right and not so small use but open so that anything can be installed.
They patented things that other people in the community designed and claimed them as their own. Makerbot may have been one of the first, but they ended up as scumbags.
Now there are a ton of other companies out there doing it better, Good luck to the new CEO, he's captain of a sinking ship.
do we call assholes "researchers"? This guy is nothing but a grandstanding asshole. You dont make comments like that and you dont do the FUD slinging that he does after getting denied.
Researchers do real work and publish their findings for peer review, not act like a street cred seeking HAx0r trolling for Lulz.
That sounds like "Cosmos" is cancelled then.
Too bad, as it was the best thing on TV.
That's cheating.
And inside, a modern x86 processor is actually a giant hardware emulation of x86 instructions with a RISC/VLIW core... You call it cheating, and I call it optimizing.
They second you try a cool trick like migrating a thread to another machine...
But this would happen with a macrokernel as well... you can't just magically make networking overhead disappear...
I wasn't intending on saying that CISC was superior to RISC... what I was more saying is that there has been more money put into CISC processors, and so they develop faster.
It's just a simple fact of money == better access to stuff to make more money.
The main reason CISC is faster today is probably more related capital investment needed in production. Intel just have so much more.
This was basically what I was trying to say. More capital investment typically means better outcomes.
Hackers have a better chance of deorbiting a satellite and hitting the aircraft while it is in flight than they do taking it over from the in flight wifi.
It's the same for all the hype over car systems. EVERY SINGLE EXAMPLE they have to install hardware to get access to the data interface.
So yes Terrorists can take over the airplane from their cellphones if the flight crew let them into the maintenance areas and help them install several specialized devices that give them access.
The terrorists need to make appointments so they can make sure that avionics technicians are on hand to help them
Motorcycles are faster than dogs, yet many people get injured by dogs intercepting a motorcycle.
I am thinking you did not take physics and algebra classes to learn about trajectories and interception.
Which would make flak guns way more effective. Start shooting flak that is nothing more than simple drones that look for large objects, get close to them and explode.
Flak shells are already 50% there as they have the proximity fuse, all we need to do is add a system to let them steer themselves to big objects.
titanium? just the baseball will take out the turbine of a jet engine. all you need to do is break one or two turbine vanes and the engine will destroy it's self.
Jet engines are pretty darn flimsy in regards to objects entering the intake.
