  1. Don't think it has anything to do with new hardware, rather some OpenCL acceleration for Adobe Premiere.
  2. Repost http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/117195-german-ping-pong-champion-to-play-against-industrial-robot-next-month/
  3. boinc has some interesting projects that are CPU only so that would be no problem. Here are all the projects and some information on them: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php
  4. mtgox blames "bug in bitcoin software" for their withdrawal problems. https://www.mtgox.com/press_release_20140210.html Transaction mellability is already known for years but many people just don't get it and panic.
  5. meh. https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=2598.0
  6. Yep, just a troll being worth 58 million dollar :unsure:
  7. Just had a look at coinmarketcap.com and saw this: So what's wrong with people? Any thoughts?
  8. this. And if you go for GPU don't mine bitcoin but litecoin or any other scrypt based crypto.
  9. Some things I would like to add: (hope it's not too late :unsure: ) 1) Explain what Logic is You can begin with a bit history. First research in this field was done by philosophers in the ancient world. Today the most known mathematical logic is propositional calculus, which is a boolean algebra (like already mentioned). But there are also more complex formes of mathematical logics, e.g. predicate logic. There is enough material out there about this stuff. 2) Explain what computer programming is Computer programming is telling a computer how to solve a mathematically specified problem, in which way doesn't matter. Different approaches to computer programming are also called programming paradigmes. Imperativ programming is basically giving sequential instructions in combination with flow control (if - then -else; loops). Functional programming would be another paradigm. It is more mathematical and describes the problem to solve, instead of describing the way to solving it. 3) Explain how Logic is used in regards to computer programming As I mentioned there are many programming paradigmes and one of them is logic programming (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_programming). The most famous example of a logic programming language is Prolog (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prolog). Basically you write down facts and rules that describe your problem. Then you can ask certain questions and you will get the result. Prolog performes this on basis of mathematical logic, it tests satisfiablility etc. Furthermore logics is heavily used in hardware development, eg FPGA programming using VHDL. (not exactly sure if this is relevant for you) Hope i could give you some more ideas for your paper.
  10. Exactly. It just makes it possible to type in linustechtips.com and it redirects you to the specific IP address. It doesn't make you any faster and it is certainly not illegal.
  11. Are you sure you mean DNS and not VPN or something? Because DNS is a very basic part of the www and we are using it every day.
  12. I don't quite understand your question. DNS servers are used to resolve domain names, so you don't have to type in IP addresses. I guess that's an advantage :D
  13. Higher density yes, but still the heat emitted per transistor is lower which means that at the same number of transistors it has a lower heat output.
  14. Looks amazing, I love that tubing and that case...and probably all the other stuff in that build! :D But seriously one of my favourite builds so far.
