So I suppose product placement in movies should be forbidden as well? Don't give Republicans ammo to whine about over-regulation. Let's just break up companies that provide data delivery and ISP services, into those two components.

The lowest repeatable-measured rate I've hit is 36bpm.

I read the poll narrowly as "streamed from an internet source", and for me, that would (potentially) be sourced by 98% Netflix, 2% Amazon. The point I was trying to make is that AV quality matters much more to me than convenience. I'd rather wait for the BluRay disk in the mail, than to stream.

When A/V quality is at least 80% of BluRay, I'll look into streaming. So ~33Mbit/s. Are we there yet?

I was a co-op at IBM in Manassas, VA in 1992. My group was aggregating components for a submarine-based rack system with an embedded "monstrous" 19" monitor. I thought running processes on a remote system and viewing the result on a local system was the coolest thing I had ever seen in my life. My mentor was tasked with finding every security leak he could in X. I was clueless then and my brain on overdrive just learning vi (not vim) and ksh. It was a mostly worthless internship, but it did imbue my soul with unix. So I have that going for me.

Try clicking "Try it!" on their web page. Your container is lost at sea :/.

I started running 40 miles / week and lost 40lbs. No other changes.

Build an office park on The Mystery Spot, if you can find it.

If you can't buy one of these, who cares?

Citation? The same could be requested of me. Has anyone even asked this question. Google doesn't turn up much on the topic amazing.

Yes, because "we" demand zero-defect terrorism policies. Don't blame the gubrmnt just because people flip out over bombs but accept causes of death orders of magnitude more significant. The terrorists have officially won.

https://www.coursera.org/course/algo About the Course In this course you will learn several fundamental principles of algorithm design. You'll learn the divide-and-conquer design paradigm, with applications to fast sorting, searching, and multiplication. You'll learn several blazingly fast primitives for computing on graphs, such as how to compute connectivity information and shortest paths. Finally, we'll study how allowing the computer to "flip coins" can lead to elegant and practical algorithms and data structures. Learn the answers to questions such as: How do data structures like heaps, hash tables, bloom filters, and balanced search trees actually work, anyway? How come QuickSort runs so fast? What can graph algorithms tell us about the structure of the Web and social networks? Did my 3rd-grade teacher explain only a suboptimal algorithm for multiplying two numbers?

We wouldn't have the processors to run most of this software without the seed - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPICE .
