32 technological innovations that will change your tomorrow

6. The Congestion Killer
Traffic jams can form out of the simplest things. One driver gets too close to another and has to brake, as does the driver behind, as does the driver behind him — pretty soon, the first driver has sent a stop-and-go shock wave down the highway. One driving-simulator study found that nearly half the time one vehicle passed another, the lead vehicle had a faster average speed. All this leads to highway turbulence, which is why many traffic modelers see adaptive cruise control (A.C.C.) — which automatically maintains a set distance behind a car and the vehicle in front of it — as the key to congestion relief. Simulations have found that if some 20 percent of vehicles on a highway were equipped with advanced A.C.C., certain jams could be avoided simply through harmonizing speeds and smoothing driver reactions. One study shows that even a highway that is running at peak capacity has only 4.5 percent of its surface area occupied. More sophisticated adaptive cruse control systems could presumably fit more cars on the road.
When a quarter of the vehicles on a simulated highway had A.C.C., cumulative travel time dropped by 37.5 percent.
In another simulation, giving at least a quarter of the cars A.C.C. cut traffic delays by up to 20 percent.
By 2017, an estimated 6.9 million cars each year will come with A.C.C.

and …
Perhaps, I haven’t explained myself well.
About the pogoplug and the disk drive.
You plug both into any power strip.
The disk drive plugs via usb into the pogoplug.
The pogoplug plugs via an RJ45 (local area network connection) (looks like a fat phone wire with bigger that a phone socket plugs on each end) into the ROUTER.
Note: it doesn’t plug into ANY computer.
(You can, but you don’t HAVE to. The value of this little 45$ linux box is that it is it’s own computer / appliance.)
Once you do that, I can give you a directory on the drive that you can:
(a) “mount” the drive on any computer on your home lan (wirelessly or wired) and use as you would the hard disk that’s internal to that computer. Including IPADs, ITOUCHs, IPHONES, and most smart phones.
(b) by correctly defining any path to the pogoplug via it’s web interface, it will give you a URL that you can “publish”, share, or use yourself.
So, for example, Luddite can upload his corny spam megabyte movie files to is and any one who has the link can look at it. ANd, would CLOG everyone’s mail systems with HUGE files.
So, for example, MIX2 can put the that big video on the “platform” and only allow certain people to see it. (Even if someone has the link, they can’t see it. I think it comes back “404 url not found” or something like that.)
SO, you can think of pogoplug as a “personal / group / public” cloud solution.
I’d like to deploy them at all my favorite people’s routers so that I can have off-site storage. (The power is use is about 8$ per year I’m told.)
I think it’s a neat device.

Are you ready for IPv6?

IPv6, on the other hand, supports a huge number of unique addresses – 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 to be exact. This is well over 340 undecillion addresses (a number that most of us can’t even imagine). Here’s some perspective on just how big that number is. One immediate benefit of having that many addresses available is that NAT would no longer be needed because every device on the planet – computers, tablets, smartphones, refrigerators, washing machines, security cameras, TV sets, etc. – can have its own IP address to connect directly to the Internet.

Wow!!!

“We’re here today to carry out the court order,” Idaho state Corrections Director Brent Reinke announced to the press this morning at an early-morning briefing, …
*** end quote ***
Nuremberg is a city in the German state of Bavaria, in the administrative region of Middle Franconia. Situated on the Pegnitz river and the Rhine–Main–Danube.
The Nuremberg defense: “I was just following orders.”
Didn’t work for the Nazis!
I follow the news about all my “kinsmen”. While not the most uncommon name in the world, I don’t know ANY other related “reinke’s”. And, only a few unrelated Jaspers who share the name. (I try not to embarrass them for the purposes of a Google search.)
This saddens me.
Where does the State ever get right to kill its “citizens” in cold blood? One libertarian philosopher I read once made the case that in RARE instances, it might be justifiable, if the human represented a “clear and present” danger to society (i.e., a Doctor Hannibal Lecture that was too dangerous to confine). But that would be an extreme rarity.
I’m hard pressed to find this comparable to that.
IF faced with such a “duty”, I’d have to resign.
Makes me think of Saint Thomas Moore.
“And when we die, and you are sent to heaven for doing your conscience, and I am sent to hell for not doing mine, will you come with me, for fellowship?” Paul Scofield as Thomas More in “A Man for All Seasons” (1966)
So would you, could you kill a fellow human being, no matter how flawed. If the Eastern philosophers are correct, we are all but “fingers” on the same “hand”.
Would you cut off one of your fingers without a very very very good reason?
And the death penalty is as final as we can get. No eraser can make it right.
Nope, sorry, this is “wrong” by any standard I can find.
And, if an individual doesn’t have the right to do it, then creating a mob or a Gooferment doesn’t change the calculus.

Was tired this morning. Stayed up to watch the two hour premiere of Falling Skies.
Not sure if I liked it.
Can’t we “kill off” “john carter” and all the Hollywood stereotypes? Some of the characters are distracting.
Like the little kid shooting a souped up AR15.
Yeah, right!
More likely than killing the alien, he’d have done us all a great service and killed his “dad john carter”.
I’ve shot a plain old ar15. It has kick like a mad child. It tends to rise. So the kid would be on his A Double Q with flash impaired vision and gunfire deafness. The only way he get the alien is when the slug shot up would come down like a mortar round!
Personally, I could cheer: (a) the kid’s wild fire kills “john carter”; (b) the alien kills “john carter”; or © the returning to earth slug kill everyone.
Anyone else rooting for the aliens over the formulaic Hollywood writers?
Probably should stop now befre I become “Politcally Incorrect”!

Evlynn received 125 pints of blood and 75 bags of platelets in the last year of her live as the doctor tried to buy her enough time for them to find an answer. As you know or can guess, time ran out. Personally, I’ve replaced about ½ of the platelets used. So far, others have donated 20 pints. Some beautiful people made the donations that allowed my beloved to survive year. Her family and friends are try to give that stuff “back” for someone else’s life. I was super impressed that the docs and hospital would just pour it in without hesitation. It always amazed me.
If you can’t join us, then give where you can. It’s more of a “spiritual effort” anyway. I’m the only one keeping count. Hate to leave the game “owing”, I’d guess it’s a corporal work of mercy.
