https://vimeo/63118596 I have a confession: I ;ve never properly backed up my computer. Ever. Whether it was a cloud-based solution or a local NAS, the upload speeds were horrendous or the software was just plain ugly and confusing to use. But a couple of former Mozy employees have convinced stanley cup me otherwise. Say hello to Space Monkey. The way Space Monkey and its two co-founders Alen Peacock and Clint Gordon-Carroll describe the service is that it vaso stanley basically brings the cloud to your home. You pay $10/month for about 1TB of storage, which is stored both locally on your Space Monkey and on Space Monkey encrypted shared stanley tumbler network. And all of it can be accessed from anywhere you are on virtually any device. Should you be skeptical Yes. But trust me, this is different, and different is good. The basic process works this way: You back up whatever it is you ;d like from your home computer to your Space Monkey, then all of that is broken up into 40 different pieces of data. Twenty of those are erasure coded, with the other twenty being parity pieces. So rather than relying on a central data center, the individual Space Monkeys create a network-based data center for your virtual goods. This solves a couple problems inherent with existing backup solutions and is pretty genius in practice. If, for instance, a portion of the country goes down because of a major storm, you can still access your stuff because you only need 20 of the 40 bits floating around the shared netwo Xfkt Are giant jellyfish evolving to take over the seas

All planets are vast clumps of dust and gas packed together by gravity. If there lots of material, a gas giant is the result. If there isn ;t much material, you g stanley ca et a rocky planet. At least, that what we thought. But now Seung-Hoon Cha and Sergei Nayakshin of the UK University of Leicester have come up with a rather intriguing complication for the longstanding core accretion model. In this current view, planet formation is a bottom-up process. Dust and gas clump together into disks around their star, and then they start smashing together into bigger and bigger pieces until stanley becher , eventually, the force of gravity is strong enough to pull all the material together into a planet. However, the researchers propose a new, top-down model that they call tidal downsizing. In this new theory, giant gas disks form far away from their star, further out than where most of the currently known planets are found. Over time, these disks would start to clump together into gigantic stanley cups planets as much as ten times as massive as Jupiter. During this clumping process, heavier dust particles would fall through the gas into the center of the forming planet, creating a rocky core. But here where tidal downsizing gets really interesting. The gas disk all around the newborn planet works to push the planet out of its orbit towards its star. Eventually, the planet gets close enough that the tremendous tidal force of the star starts ripping the gas right off the planet.

A company called Vertical Power has created a GPS-based co-pilot for smaller private planes that constantly worried about the worst-case-scenario when stanley cup flying. But that a good thing, since in the event of an emergency like an engine failure, it already knows the nearest and safest place to land. Developed in partnership with Laminar Research, the makers of the X-Plane flight simulator, the VP-400 is wired into the plane avionics so it always knows the craft altitude, air speed, and heading. And it uses this information to determine how far the plane could safely glide to a landing. If there an airport close enough, it will use that, but if that not an optio stanley termoska n, it will even seek out the closest road or field that long enough to make a safe touchdown. https://youtube/watch v=9bkYXdlLYJ8 And if the pilot finds themselves in a bit of a panic during the emergency, which is understandable, the V-400 is even able to take control of the plane autopilot and perform the proper maneuvers needed to get the aircraft in position to make a landing at the chosen location. At which point t stanley cup he pilot should be able to safely land the plane. With a price tag of $8,000, plus the cost of monthly subscriptions to various aviation databases, the system isn ;t cheap.

Memories have a way of informing our identities, reinforcing our conceptions of who we are, and helping shape us into the people we will become tomorrow. In almost all cases, our memories 鈥?even the unpleasant ones 鈥?play a formative role in our lives; but they can also be so painful or traumatic that they become become debilitating. In the latest issue of Wired, Jonah Lehrer provides us with a detailed look at a future where editing our memories could become a reality. We ;re not talking Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind style brain-wipes; the memory-editing of the future will offer incredible precision, allowing us to address the neurological underpinnings responsible for everything from post-traumatic stress disorder, to drug addiction, to regret over a one-night stand.

Warner Bros. wants actor-turned-director Ben Affleck to adapt Stephen King mammoth novel for a feature film. But can Affleck whittle down all the crazy into a single film We highly doubt it. Now that Harry Potter is gone and Green Lantern turned out to be a bit of a disaster for the Warners, we imagine they ;re looking for the next big franchise. And there certainly is enough material in The Stand to warrant multiple movies. As of now, there are no reports that the studio plans to break The Stand into several features, but this ma stanley quencher y be t stanley mugs he smarter way to go. As for the rumors about Warner Bros. tapping Affleck to write and direct, that fantastic. Affleck work on The Town was really quite good, plus the director excels at working with strong 鈥?some would argue completely over-the-top 鈥?characters. And The Stand is basically a grab bag of insanity. There a deaf mute, a woman who sleeps with The Devil, a convict who eats a rat, a pyromaniac, and a burned-out pop star. Affleck should have a lot to work with. If this rumor proves true that also means that Potter director David Yates is off the project. [Via Deadline] Book stanley mug sMoviesStephen KingThe Stand

All is not well at Meg Whitman HP, we learned during the company fourth-quarter earnings call this morning. HP just recorded a $9 billion devaluation of its assets stemming from serious accounting tomfoolery at a company that HP bought for $11 billion last year. Ouch. Last August, HP bought the British software company Autonomy for $11.1 billion making it one of HP biggest assets. We knew at the time that it was probably a mistake, but the deal turned out to be so much worse than we could have imagined. In today call, HP claimed that Autonomy books had been cooked before HP ever got there, and th stanley cup e company will take an $8.8 billion hit to its balance sheet to compensate. Some nitty-gritty from the earnings statement: https://gizmodo/ stanley cups hps-buying-giant-software-company-auto stanley water bottle nomy-and-spinning-5832225 The majority of this impairment charge is linked to serious accounting improprieties, disclosure failures and outright misrepresentations at Autonomy Corporation plc that occurred prior to HP acquisition of Autonomy and the associated impact of those improprieties, failures and misrepresentations on the expected future financial performance of the Autonomy business over the long-term. So even though Autonomy accounting department was apparently staffed by liars, the software engineering is still sound. If I were an HP investor, I would be pissed.
