Being an art director and a freelancer, I believe any proof other than a press run should be assumed imperfect. If your client demands perfection, get a match print. If not, explain to them that it is not physically possible to show them a 100% proof, and use your own printer to emulate what...

This is exactly the type of attitude that allows for progress. It's simply not illogical to think the impossible or infeasible anymore; we're constantly discovering properties of the universe that provoke us to modify our preexisting set of scientific doctrines. It really bothers me when the...

Oh I have no doubt we'll continue with at least the spirit of his law. Quantum computing, as my PhD-having poster probably knows more about, could very well exceed his law year-over-year. By "ceiling" I'm referring to the point at which more power becomes unnecessary or unusable.

Yes, if I were in a rush situation, my productivity would increase. My point is that it's unnecessary in the majority of things we currently do with our personal computers. The physical amount of work I can do with my hands and mind has really become the bottleneck in most design situations. I...

I realize that physical law does come in at some point, but just look at the huge number of inventions and innovations that came exploding in the face of naysayers. Honda has a hydrogen car, so is a water car really such a stretch?

It seems to me that the processor speeds of our personal computers are approaching a kind of singularity. Given our current GUIs and tasks that we tax our computers with, our processors simply have become fast enough to handle it all without much necessary improvement. For instance, I do a lot...

No, reed, you're right. The only thing I'd add to that is motivation. That'll be the real crux. A lot of the Americans over here like their enormous air-conditioned SUVs and hillbillymobile pick-up trucks to cave to a simple global climate change argument! :(

Yes... quick math says that there would be around a 16% favor towards the Imperial gallon, given that you thought in terms of US gallons.

Actually, I love Mail.app; it's simple and straightforward. It seems to be that other mail applications are intentionally crammed with little-used "features".

This is the blatantly obvious truth of everything that nobody wants to admit, and the people who do usually get labeled nihilist or other such projective bull. If we want to play god, we better start getting good at it.
