I had the opportunity earlier this week to diavlog with John Mueller, Professor of Political Science at Ohio State University, on his new book, Atomic Obsession. Mueller's argument is that the importance of nuclear weapons has been substantially overstated in several ways; popular culture has exaggerated the effect of individual nuclear weapons, historians and political scientists have exaggerated...

(TrendHunter.com) I don’t own a watch--I don’t like to know the time when I don’t have to. But if I did own a watch, I would want one that was never out of synch and always had the correct time. The Atomic Pocket Watch…

A University of Arkansas professor and his colleagues have shown that the Earth's mantle contains the same isotopic signatures from magnesium as meteorites do, suggesting that the planet formed from meteoritic material. This resolves a long-standing debate in the field over the planet's origins.

Top Questions - Stack Overflow (Free subscription) | yesterday
Suppose I'm writing (assembly) code for a CPU whose only atomic operation is an unconditional swap -- no LL/SC, no compare-and-swap, just plain swap. (An ARM9 would be an example of such a beast.) Is there a way to perform atomic increment/decrement operations using the swap operation? There is a relatively easy answer, which is to use the swap to build a spinlock, and use that to provide...

Howdy, kids! Ready for this week's Atomic Tuesday? I thought so. I know you so well. It's a little late coming to you today, but I had a Very Important phone interview with a Very Important person this afternoon and so I'm a bit behind on, well, stuff. Exciting! Zing! Wee! Huzzah! (Enter any other annoying sounds a person makes when they're happy, X here X.) I'll be sure to post about my interview...

For most of us, having a watch that is accurate to within a minute or two is good enough. But not for some people! Some people want their watch to be accurate to the second, and they want it to stay that way for tens of millions of years. Fair enough! The Atomic Pocket Watch isn't atomic itself, but instead it just gets its time via a radio signal from an atomic clock. They claim...

With the release of 10.6.2, Apple killed unsupported support for the Atom processor — the processor used in low-cost netbooks. Certain models of netbooks could run OS X quite easily, and people used them to make the Little Netbook Apple Refuses to Make. While it’s a stretch to say Apple has killed the hackintosh market, [...]

So far so good. No problem receiving the atomic time updates and after calibrating, I get good results from the compass, atlimeter. My favorite function is the barometer which has proven very reliable in predicting rainy conditions 12-24 hours in advance. Like many reviewers have mentioned....body heat does affect the temperature, so if you want the true temperature you need to take to watch...
