Hulu Plus subscribers top 2 million

In fact, Hulu Plus — the streaming service's $8-a-month premium offering — has hit two million subscribers, reports The New York Times. That number is up by a third since the end of 2011, and has roughly quadrupled in the past year, showing people are increasingly willing to pay for better video quality, access to more content, and the convenience of watching their Hulu programming on non-PC devices.

With the growth of its own original programming, Hulu is competing more and more with traditional networks, and as such, is hoping to snag higher ad prices.

La loi de Moore n’a plus que 10 ans à vivre

Personne ne saurait le dire. Personne, ou presque. Le physicien théoricien Michio Kaku prédit sa fin dans dix ans. La loi de Moore, une des théories de base de l’industrie informatique, explique que le nombre de transistors des microprocesseurs sur une puce de silicium double tous les deux ans. Et même si ce n’est pas une loi physique, cet énoncé empirique s’est révélé exact depuis son énonciation en 1975. En effet, l’augmentation exponentielle de la puissance de nos ordinateurs ne pourra pas suivre avec pour seule technologie le silicium. Judge: An IP-Address Doesn’t Identify a Person (or BitTorrent Pirate) A landmark ruling in one of the many mass-BitTorrent lawsuits in the US has delivered a severe blow to a thus far lucrative business.

Judge: An IP-Address Doesn’t Identify a Person (or BitTorrent Pirate)

Among other things, New York Judge Gary Brown explains in great detail why an IP-address is not sufficient evidence to identify copyright infringers. According to the Judge this lack of specific evidence means that many alleged BitTorrent pirates have been wrongfully accused by copyright holders. Mass-BitTorrent lawsuits have been dragging on for more than two years in the US, involving more than a quarter million alleged downloaders. The copyright holders who start these cases generally provide nothing more than an IP-address as evidence. They then ask the courts to grant a subpoena, allowing them to ask Internet providers for the personal details of the alleged offenders. The problem, however, is that the person listed as the account holder is often not the person who downloaded the infringing material. Walter Lewin Promo.

The Science. 70 Things Every Computer Geek Should Know. The term ‘geek’, once used to label a circus freak, has morphed in meaning over the years. What was once an unusual profession transferred into a word indicating social awkwardness. As time has gone on, the word has yet again morphed to indicate a new type of individual: someone who is obsessive over one (or more) particular subjects, whether it be science, photography, electronics, computers, media, or any other field.
