Clarifications: You don't get to communicate or negotiate with the other person, you just offer a percentage. Then the lottery board communicates with him or her, and your offer is either accepted, and you both get the money, or rejected, and neither of you get a penny. - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo

Deciding if behavior is rational depends on the goal. If only the profit from a single event matters, then it is irrational to turn down any amount over zero. However if an individual in a tribe punishes another member for being selfish, that might improve their behavior in future situations. - Mike Chelen

Bioinformatics, Vol. 24, No. 11. (1 June 2008), pp. 1381-1385. Motivation: Internet-based electronic resources, as given by Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), are being increasingly used in scientific publications but are also becoming inaccessible in a time-dependant manner, a phenomenon documented across disciplines. Initial reports brought attention to the problem, spawning methods of effectively preserving URL content while some journals adopted policies regarding URL publication and begun storing supplementary information on journal websites. Thus, a reexamination of URL growth and decay in the literature is merited to see if the problem has grown or been mitigated by any of these changes.Results: After the 2003 study, three follow-up studies were conducted in 2004, 2005 and 2007. Unfortunately, no significant change was found in the rate of URL decay among any of the studies. However, only 5% of URLs cited more than twice have decayed versus 20% of URLs cited once or twice.

I'm not sure I like the idea of paying, especially on a monthly basis for a subscription, once I have to foot the bill, and also if free cloud-based services exist and can do a half decent job... - Jason Snyder

"Imagine buying time on a computer in Ireland or Indiana the same way you'd bid for an antique on eBay. That's how a new crop of startup companies called "cloud brokerages" plan to change the way companies buy and sell computing capacity. Cloud computing has already made accessing computer power more efficient. Instead of buying computers, companies can now run websites or software by leasing time at data centers run by vendors like Amazon or Microsoft. The idea behind cloud brokerages is to take the efficiency of cloud computing a step further by creating a global marketplace where computing capacity can be bought and sold at auction." - Wildcat from Bookmarklet

Been using Amazon EC2 spot instances for a while, great value if you bid when prices are low. More providers would help with price spikes, especially if there are ways to place orders across multiple exchanges. - Mike Chelen

Proponents of book destruction warn against the mentality that sees the library's function as a "museum of the book." Their point is that while you may think of the library as shelf after shelf of beloved old works of literature, the most important function (and often biggest cost) of a library is maintaining active subscriptions to dozens or hundreds of journals that students and academics use for research - LibrarianOnTheLoose

I think the key to understanding this article lies in one of its first sentences: "For the past year or so, part of my job has been to walk through library warehouses and destroy tens of thousands of often old and irreplaceable books." It's a lot easier to do that job, I bet, if you see it as something ALL libraries are doing, nay, being forced to do, than as one approach to the... more... - Marianne

"In one of our previous posts we discussed the General Processing on the Graphics Processing Unit (GPGPU) concepts and architecture. For C/C++ programmers this is all great but for Java Programmers writing C/C++ instead of Java is to say the least an inconvenience. So what tools are out there for Java programmers?" - imabonehead from Bookmarklet

"Most of the renewable energy sources that are under consideration involve an obvious source of energy—light, heat, or motion. But this is the second time this year there has been a paper that has focused on a less obvious source: the potential difference between fresh river water and the salty oceans it flows into. But this paper doesn't simply use the difference to produce some electricity; instead, it adds bacteria to the process and takes out a portable fuel: hydrogen." - Me from Bookmarklet

"Physicians gauging pain have little to go on besides a patient’s self-report. And some sufferers simply can’t communicate how they’re feeling. So scientists have searched for a reliable way to measure pain physiologically. And they may finally have one. Researchers performed functional MRI scans on the brains of 24 subjects who were having an arm heated to the point of moderate pain. The subjects’ brain patterns were recorded both as they experienced pain and zero pain. The researchers then used an algorithm to develop a pain model, based on the patterns. The work was published in the journal PLoS One." - Shevonne from Bookmarklet
