    Scientific Gaming Journals?

    Anyone know of any reputable scientific journals focusing on gaming and perhaps more specifically on game AIs? I'm currently looking for a Masters/PhD thesis or dissertation topic in this area so I want to know what the "cutting edge" of technology is in game AI.

    Neutrinos measured going faster than the speed of light

    Still a little early to say the experiment was not flawed in some way but CERN scientists have spent months checking the equipment and results. The results suggest that neutrinos reached the end of a 732km track 60ns quicker than a photon would with a margin of error of only 10ns. CERN have now...

    Human perspective hindrance to better scientific models?

    Does anyone else here wonder if our perspective as humans will prevent us from coming up with scientific models that describe the Universe better? For example we experience particles (any discrete object around us) and wave phenomena (in water, etc) all the time and hence it was only reasonable...

    Class J Radio Frequency Power Amplifier

    Can anyone recommend some good sources that may help me design a class J RF PA? I don't necessarily expect the source/s to cover class J PAs specifically because they are a relatively new class of PA however the source/s should cover class A and/or B and/or AB as the class J is similar to...

    Quick question regarding RAM compatibility

    I just bought some DDR3 RAM @ 1333MHz. The i-7 processor I am getting only supports DDR3 RAM up to 1066MHz (all i-7's only support 1066MHz DDR3 RAM weirdly). Does anyone know whether my RAM will work but just at 1066MHz (what I assumed when buying the RAM) or will it not work at all or is it...

The requirements are: 1) Sensors to detect...

    Worst Billboard I have seen......

    Just found this billboard. I really don't think I can describe it. When I saw it I just more or less just felt the jaw drop. http://i42.tinypic.com/16238l5.jpg What kind of manipulative misinformation can't they stick up? Can anyone match this?

    Stalin was an atheist and a bad man so atheism is bad?

    This also applies to Pol Pot and Mao Zedong (and arguably Hitler). I know that this is a terrible argument against atheism and I know intuitively that it is wrong but I can't see exactly why. Most theists using this argument will say he had no reason to have morals and so atheism is bad...
