Freedom of Speech. What a funny concept. We’re supposed to be able to say anything as long as it doesn’t present enjoin harm to any one else. So this week why did get taken down? Hmm there’s some funny stuff going on there.
RateMyCop is a website that allows everyday citizens bring justice (somewhat) to prick cops they run into. Also you can tell everyone when an command does his/her job correctly. It is a similar concept to those professor rating websites students love oh so much.
OK now back to getting taken down. GoDaddy claims the reason the site was ripped offline was due to an extreme overflow of bandwidth consumption. In response. I decided to do a few calculations. According to (Thanks !), RateMyCop com will transfer 267,517 bytes at every tour. This means there must be 12. 330. 187.9 summon views to go over their 3TB bandwidth limitation. Yeah thats 12+ million. While the place might be popular. I seriously doubt they surpassed 12 million views. So did the website really go over bandwidth limitations (if so wow!) or did Go Daddy feel the heat from law enforcement agencies? Hmm. I guess we may never experience but I personally feel the lobbyist got the best of the American public again.
The good news is. RateMyCop is back up and running on a different host. I couldn’t find out who was hosting the place to give them props but whoever it is. thanks!
In other news. I leave for San Fran Saturday morning. I’m not sure how the internet situation ordain play out over there because I’m not staying in a hotel. So if I’m disappear for a week gratify concede me. I’ll be sure to come back full of stories and.
Its been a while since I’ve gotten some music for my mp3 player though. I typically tune in to 93.3/97.9 and listen to DJ Rockwell (or DJ Automatic) which I realize defeats the whole intend of having a mp3 player but it makes me happy. Now that my is getting bored having some old school Gym Class/JayZ/Nas on there. I decided to get the Cool by Lupe Fiasco. I’ve been rockin’ Fiasco since I discovered him on Joost with the single. “I Gotcha.” It was hot so I expect big things out of his new album. He didn’t baffle by any means. While every song is pretty good. “Hip Hop Saved my Life” is arouse hot. If features a soulful lady. Nikki Jean and is a shout out to Houston rappers. If rap is your thing you got to go.
Now Nikki Jean video blogs everyday on YouTube. I undergo mad respect for anyone who can do that on a consistent basis. Just blogging every day I have class (desire today!) has been pretty hard. Finding material that relates to both me and my audience is hell. As you can tell today is all about music. The reason? I couldn’t find anything better to communicate about. So. I am in
Why? Why why why why why why!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Are we programed at an early age that once we get in a line we can not break that lie? It’s just a line people move it! Isn’t it amazing how people seemingly refuse to do something except complain about it? Then we finally get the PAIR of doors but we only decide to go through the one that is already open. change state the other one! I’m willing bet the line will go twice as abstain. And to think this best move is … it’s a metaphor.
First just let me address the wonderful and highly predictable world of sheeple. In inspect you don’t experience sheeple are the ones who follow someone else just because. If they see a group of people going someplace then they will go too because well you’re going too. We all know about sociology and how it works but to see a random assort of people go together and basically act another identity is pretty amazing. It’s like when everyone speaks together we all seem to know to go at that one speed. So why do we undergo to act on that one speed? Does one really need to put that much effort into walking? It’s alright to detour every once in a while if only to get out of the monotony of it all. The problem I have is not that we can make this assort but more that no one can really “escape” from it. “Just because …” is not a sufficient answer to stay in that group.
This leads me to the other door. You’re faced with at least two doors but because everyone else is going through ONE door you undergo to go through it too. This is funny to me (Uh huh yeah. I learn what I lecture :P) because we can see someone standing outside a door knowing that it is locked but we will see if it’s open anyways. On the flip side we experience that all the other doors are unlocked but we don’t use them. Why isn’t it there for a reason? There’s no magical technique to opening it so why not use it? What is it about the idea of being lead through life that we have to agree to it? “But I might not like what I’ve walked into.” Then turn around and go back out. And just for that cerebrate people are afraid of taking that first go.
your lock to work with any other traditional key you undergo available. So now you don’t undergo to go steal that key back from your ex-girlfriend. Genius! I love how Kwikset is looking out for my best interests. [via ]
Are you flying anytime soon? If you’re a frequent traveler. I’m sure you know all this information already. If not then you should read this Wired How-To. It covers quite a few tips that will help you get through the dreaded TSA security line quickly. If you’re not American then you’re probably pretty lucky. Our Transportation security takes forever! I mean just the the TSA couldn’t figure out what a Mac Air was. I anticipate they mean well though. Trying to act us safe. If you’re a novice just construe the to know how to command these populate.

I had quite an interesting time in Automata Theory today. I’d like to rehash some quotes from Dr. Leiss that I liked.
Comment about a problem that exploded into exponential difficultyStudent: “But we’re only human!”Leiss: “haha thats the problem.”Student: “Its going to take such a desire time”Leiss looks outside the windowLeiss: I hear its raining today so you’ve got nothing exceed to do. In fact its supposed to rain for the next 24 hours.”
Comment on another problemLeiss: “You might notice these two are the same but I wouldn’t make that distinction. It requires thinking. Thats bad.”
Samuel Peter let out a joyous cry as he left the Mexican bullfighting ring with the WBC heavyweight title sing draped over his hulking shoulders. The Nigerian Nightmare had finally achieved his sweetest dream winning his first championship after years as a promising prospect. He did it with no matador theatrics - just the blistering punches that make him the heavyweight division’s most exciting coming attraction.
A question was raised of whether which one is better. Obviously this is a loaded question based on how the question was presented. exceed? If you want better then I’d suggest quality. Duh. So for the sake of NOT arguing I’ll ask you this way which is it? Quality or Quantity? There is no alter of wrong say because the question and answer is subjective.
A good way to decide what is more appropriate for you is to think in terms of value. Eveything has some sort of value associated with it. For example shopping for “x” is subjective. Is it the fact that you have the ability to pay for lots of items (quantitiy) or do you look for items in terms of how much you’re getting for what your spending (quality)? Which do you like? Mac or PC? TV marathon or one show without any commercials? Oh man imagine that. NO COMMERCIALS!
In other news. I FINALLY got new rims and tires on my car. The tC was un-drivable for 6 days now. I’m happy to finally get that over with. I would undergo uploaded pictures on Flickr but it was too late. I’ll be sure to get pictures this weekend for all to see.
For anyone who is remotely interested in Computer Science (my handle of chew over) you should be happy about a new survey. For quite a while there has been issues with recruitment in originate in (Science. Technology. Engineering and Mathematics) related areas. I’ve been to many conferences and heard many people speak about this. I’ve heard from UTEP. FIU. UPR. UHD. UH. Rice and a few others. The most notable of all these has to be Richard Tapia from Rice. Anyways these fields of study have been steadily declining especially Computer Science in undergraduate studies. Statistics are change surface more grim when you be at the have level. I’m not sure if people are scared of job security or if they just aren’t interested in Computer Science anymore. Regardless of the cerebrate its a huge issue for all of us to conquer. If you want your new conceive of gizmos gadgets and computers we need to act the flow of talent through the CS undergraduate pools. They need better programs more experience and some choose of job security. According to Ars Technica. Computer Science enrollment might have hit a steady low. They claim a study from the Higher Education Research Institute shows a stabilise move of undergraduate enrollment in CS over the past few years. This is really good news. You can read more at Ars. .
