Ex-Deus Ex writer Sheldon Pacotti on massive reactions in Cell: emergence (Joystiq)

Mar 1st 2012 11:35AM @BlueRajasmyk No, he's right in that it doesn't have an AI in the traditional sense.

The rules that he's described above can be easily mimicked or at least thought out as a bunch of if this happens then that happens, or several well known cases and scenarios with defined outcomes from those cases.

This game is basically a trumped up version of Conway's Game of Life (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life).

7 anti-Apple cliches that need to die (TUAW.com)

May 30th 2010 1:16PM By the way, iTunes/Apple holds 70% of the digital music market, kinda like how Office had 70% dominance of office market. So, Apple is in fact, in a Microsoft like de-facto monopoly position. The 25% would hold water if iTunes actually sold physical music like its competitors.

Which it doesn't.

7 anti-Apple cliches that need to die (TUAW.com)

May 30th 2010 1:12PM "The Apple of 2010 wields a lot of power, and it sometimes does it in a very heavy-handed manner... but name one thing Apple's done that even comes close to what Microsoft did to Netscape Navigator."

iTunes, App Store and it's draconian and sometimes spurious censorship, Apples ongoing war against Flash that's getting very close to what MS did to Netscape to name three off top of my head.

Not as evil as what Microsoft did in the mid-to-late 90s, mind you, but it's emulating the very best tactics from that era.

Motorola XT720 spreading Android, BLUR to South Korea? (Engadget)

Jan 12th 2010 4:38AM This would make it the first phone with Android to make it to Korea, officially supported by any carrier.

My Mytouch3G gets looks since no other phone in Korea has such features save for the recently debuted iPhone 3GS (not CDMA but GSM).

Hell, in Seoul (more or less), they have readers for your SIM Card and charges your mobile account for the stuff that you use your phone to pay for. Why can't we get something like that in the States, eh?

Panasonic SDXC cards roadmap and Lumix camera lineup at CES 2010 (Engadget)

Jan 8th 2010 5:04AM Well, lookie here, looks like SD's taking a page out of Sony's playbook. What? No one remembers Memory Stick Pro Duo XC Mark 2?

Apparently, neither does Sony.

Wireworld's Platinum Starlight HDMI cable is only $1,000, better than your HDMI cable (Engadget)

Dec 8th 2009 7:02PM I'm in the wrong bithneth.

You know what, I'm gonna sell my own cables, exclusively made of ores mined from Shenzen mountains in China, then treated with an exclusive organic formula: uRiCaCiD and SHIfT. Then washed in an neutral liquid known as Dihydrogen Monoxide.

It eats all EM Spectralrats, Quarkups and Quarkdowns, HiggsBoson and its uncle JimmyBosom, to create the purest sound known to man.

I'll charge $1000/in for this stuff. IT makes your music and music videos... danceable!
