I'm not here to make you smarter. I'm not here to entertain you. I'm not here to provide traffic for your website. I'm certainly not here to listen to your complaints that I don't do anything of these things. Sense of entitlement, much?

Make: Online : Harnessing bacteria to turn gears - http://blog.makezine.com/archive...

"This looks neat, a team of scientists from the Argonne National Laboratory and Northwestern University have figured out how to get bacteria to spin tiny gears. Though the gears themselves are small, the bacteria are even smaller, so apparently it takes hundreds of them swimming in swarms to produce enough energy to turn the gears. Anyone have ideas about how to turn these gear motions into logic gates? I'd love to have a bacteria-powered computer! [via boingboing]"

Need to wind your watch. Cough or spit on it. The Bacteria can then run the gears in circles winding the clock. :) (I know not practical but still, wouldn't it be cool?)

This is really the question of browsers and HTML5 and Silverlight-- the speed of innovation.
- Cliff Gerrish
Innovation is there, but implementation is sorely lagging on Microsoft's part. Silverlight suffers from different issues: I could use it, but the platform is not going to ship any time soon on Android or iPhone. Every platform requires Miicrosoft's attention before you can use it there. Around the end of 2010, IE6 and 7 adoption will have dropped off the map enough that we can start targeting HTML5 browsers as the primary platform and deliver static, barebones experiences to everything downlevel.

Android and Silverlight (the politics of java) - http://silverlight.sys-con.com/node...
- Cliff Gerrish
I don't see Silverlight playing off the 'schism' in the Java community that Android has brought about. Mobile development is so fragmented in general that adding another platform doesn't really change the balance. I don't really have enough characters to explain why, as a web application developer, I'd never choose Silverlight as my platform. It's basically the same reason why I...

@Cliff - that article was from 2007. Things haven't really worked out like that. Silverlight is DOA anyway - the OS/2 of RIAs.

Awesome. I found Scheme completely impractical personally, but this is pretty cool if they did manage to fit the heap in that low of a memory environment.
- i80and
As an exercise in footprint reduction, it is impressive. As a practical system I'm not sure its useful, but then again Forth had quite a foothold in small systems so perhaps Scheme has its niche.
