Jobs wasn't wrong. If someone posts images of the PCB board of an iPhone 5, everybody will be interested in looking at it. At this period of time, showing a PCB board was just awesome. It looked like the future. Having a beautiful PCB could have been a strong communication point. Maybe Jobs didn't think about that and was just plain wrong at this time, but I'm not convinced the situation is so clear.

Looks like the company did receive the termination notice. But likely a *software bug* in the streaming software missed the removal ...

The main reason why 10GbE took time to arrive is simple : connectors are not the good-old RJ45 used for 10Mb, 100Mb and 1GbE. The RJ45 connector is small, cheap and backward compatible. The 10GbE connectors are deep, expensive and not RJ45-compatible, hence cannot be used as a 1GbE port.

10GbE is appearing on servers because the price order is compatible with the expensive and deep connector. It won't appear on commodity motherboards until a smaller connector is designed.

Quoting http://askville.amazon.com/dangerous-car-batteries/AnswerViewer.do?requestId=4217899 :

So the answer is simply : no, it is not dangerous to touch my car battery (though the battery can be dangerous in a lot of other ways).

I learned something today :-)

Hum ... so you mean that touching my car battery + and - which is just 12V DC is not dangerous ? I kinda doubt that.

I'm I the only one who is concerned by the validity of their experiment. The last experiment lets me very dubious.

Imagine you have 3 smileys. They have similar ratings, but for sure there is one you prefer, one you rate 2nd and one you rate 3rd. Now, let's just see the result we would have for each scenario.

Rating of cards 1/2/3 ; 3rd card chosen after initial choice ; 3rd card chosen without initial choice (so just between card 2 and card 3)

1/2/3 ; False (1 chosen on first pass) ; False
1/3/2 ; True (1 chosen on first pass) ; True
2/1/3 ; False (1 chosen on first pass) ; False
2/3/1 ; True (2 chosen on first pass) ; True
3/1/2 ; True (1 chosen on first pass) ; False
3/2/1 ; True (2 chosen on first pass) ; True

Which makes in the first experiment 50% chances of choosing the third card and 66% when we made a previous "preselection". This is approximately the figures children had. Monkeys had lower 3rd card preference, maybe because they prefer to take cards in order.

About the rest of the article, I'm just as dubious. If you choose a product, for sure you rate it better. It's called the cause of you choosing it, not a consequence ...

I didn't know Civilization had been ported to ipad ...

Because .. Stanley Miller was in fact God. Problem solved, everyone agree now.

I would agree that you are responsible for what you put on the internet. Still, what you are calling a "moron" may be more than 50% of internet users. At this level, the responsibility may reside in the big companies that lure masses into their "trap".

I'd rather have Windows Love.

e Bay ... well maybe. Searching ebay for 3ware escalade cards, you may find some 8 ports or 12 ports IDE controllers. With this, you should be able to connnect 20-40 drives per PC. Hard to find however, but often not so expensive (IDE cards are no more wanted).

After that, the last issue would be the power supply, but I guess this is just simple DIY.
