Or you want to hear from other people about what they're working on. Believe it or not, the more technical "trade shows" are quite useful in that regard.

Yes, because apple is the only company that does high-dpi displays.
(Actually, that's unfortunately pretty true right now, but I hope to start seeing better displays out of the hardware makers soon.)
They already do. Just try to contribute to Hamas. See how well that goes over.
And while GPL may not be viral, it is my-way-or-the-highway.
Show me a license that's not "my way or the highway". In fact, show me any legal contract that's "my way or... you know, do whatever you want."
Blah... Built in South Africa, not South America.
It's not incorrect. ASKAP is referred to as a "pathfinder" project - an initial proof of concept that will eventually be rolled into the full SKA array -- most of which will be in South America.
The SKA organization only came into existence formally last year. The ASKAP project was in progress long before that. SKA is in the "pre-construction" phase now, and won't even start building telescopes themselves until 2016.
Seriously? He made two comments on twitter, of which he's an active user, and the media picked it up. I don't quite see how that's trolling for attention.
You, on the other hand, seem to be doing quite well at it.
I've always grasped the limitations of special relativity - it's made this conversation especially interesting to read. That said, you just touched on one thing that has consistently been beyond me. Can you expand on this a bit? General relativity - and many of the corollaries in the early universe (specifically the inflationary period) have been things I've struggled with.
How can you have two objects moving away from each other at greater than the speed of light, whilst maintaining special relativity? For inflation to work, that has to be the case, correct?
Did the original iPhone have 225 hours standby?
And the fact that you still get 8 hours browsing, even over LTE, is really impressive. It might be slightly shorter than browsing time on an original iPhone but how much browsing could you have got done on Edge? You could probably read 10x the content on the iPhone 5, so how is it not far ahead?
It comes back to the problem of looking at a raw number on a list, without thinking what that number MEANS to a user on the device.
Great example of cognitive dissonance. The point of the article is that taking into account technology changes, this iphone isn't any better than the original. And you just argued "but but but... new technology!"
Seriously? Dood can't brew beer in his spare time without it being politically motivated?
Timing might be politically motivated for releasing the recipe, but I highly doubt the beer is.
Yes, because nobody has their own proprietary data sets to use.
Hadoop is a tool. How you use it is up to you.
You're not reading enough bureaucrat. They're saying they'll consider invading Ecuador to get him.
The embassy is, both legally and by convention, part of Ecuador itself. When they say they'll "take action to arrest Mr. Assange in the current premises of the Embassy" means they're coming in without permission. Which, from Ecuador's perspective, is not very much different from saying they're going to come and arrest him if he was in their capital.
And for good measure, now the actual paper:

Funny thing, I was reading this last night.
Read the paper. They make rather optimistic assumptions about Moore's law.
My god these posts are annoying.
