Talk:Mary of Rome

message: If it is going to be expanded to more than 1 line maybe.
If there is no other info about her, then this article makes no sense. --Taw
Merge this article into the main Mary page, as a subheading?  It might not be important enough to stand as its own article, but the information needs to be somewhere. -- dreamyshade
Subheading seems right. --Taw
This encyclopaedia entry title is ridiculous and silly. Is someone claiming that this person is so imporant that eventually an entire article will be written on her? Of course not. Stop writing new entries for such small things. This should be deleted, and the information moved to some other entry where it actually would be relevent.
I agree with the guy above.  This is nothing more than a dictionary entry and abuses the purpose of Wikipedia.  Unless substantial info can be added, we should delete it. --Jzcool
What's it hurt to just leave it here?  I added more information, and wikied some relevant words. --Jimbo Wales
:It certainly hurts nothing to leave it here, where nothing redirects to it and no one who needs it will ever find it.  These few lines would be well at Mary, is my opinion. --Wetman 03:09, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

Revision 4 seems to be more readable: we should have some stuff on its uses, such as reliable systems engineering -- The Anome
----
The Article states that
"The value of the operation is false when n/2 or fewer arguments are false, and true otherwise."
Shouldn't this be either
"is false when n/2 or fewer arguments are true, and true otherwise."
or
"is false when n/2 or more arguments are false, and true otherwise."

Talk:Microkernel

message: I am not aware of any significant use of the term Nanokernel other than what essentially appears to be a catchy name for a microkernel. Even the referred KeyKOS paper implies that the KeyKOS nanokernel is, in fact, a microkernel: "What sets KeyKOS apart from other microkernels is...". I therefore propose to remove the whole section on the grounds that nanokernel is rather a fringe term used to market one specific product. All in all, it brings no benefit to the Microkernel page.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jjermar (talk • contribs) 10:04, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nanokernel section should be removed 

message: The short discussion on lazy scheduling seems to be an idiosyncrasy of the original L4 implementation, and not a design principle that is applicable to microkernels in general. In a typical synchronous IPC implementation there is absolutely no need for the sender to be put on the ready queue (it is blocked, not ready). Consequently, there is no benefit to the so-called optimization described here.
In any case, QNX does not implement such a scheme, contrary to what is stated in the last sentence of the paragraph.

Talk:Mobilian Jargon

message: On the Mobile, AL article, there is a redirect to this page. Yet the "Mobilian" article has no mention of a language or that a Mobilian would also be someone from Mobile.

thread_title:  Mobile, AL redirect 

message: Is Mobilian now a dead language? -- The Anome
I'm almost certain that it is.  I found a short reference on the Web that indicated that elements of it had survived in some of the Indian languages that were spoken in Louisiana.  The reference was undated, but it had a 19th-century flavor to it, so I suspect that possibly there were some people still speaking it a little up to maybe a hundred years ago (if that recently). -- SteveSmith
:Drechsel dedicates his book to the last speaker of Mobilian, so I would assume it's no longer with us.  As Steve above notes though it has been absorbed into other languages as well.  Drechsel notes that it happened the other way too- local tribal languages changing the Jargon to be more like them.  Interesting reading. -E. abu Filumena 08:31, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

message: How can a pidgin be said to be a lingua franca, while pidgins by definition
are never native languages? They are instead always formed or learned. Therefore
it would be erroneous to describe any pidgin as a lingua franca. Rather it was
in common use by the various language group populations that used it
among themselves.
:Since when did the definition of "lingua franca" require it to be a native language? So long as it's used for wider communication by people who speak other languages, it counts. --Ptcamn 02:28, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Nobel Prize

message: On the Nobel prize siteNobel prize site, there is a list of Nobel Prizes. It lists 5, all of which it introduces with identical preludes: “The Nobel prize in…”. Economics is not among them, it and it alone has a separate introduction  “The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel”. The committee could have called it the Nobel Prize in Economics, and they deliberately did not. They consistently type out the much longer name to underscore the fact that, while this award is every bit as prestigious as the Nobels, it is not one.

Talk:Natural monopoly

message: What a load of pants. For example, if you're going to write an article heavily using the theory of contestable markets, you ought to use the term, and credit Baumol. (And preferably have read Shapiro's response.)

replies: text: Having taken the time to read the thing properly (I'd only skimmed it before), I have to say I'm shocked. It's not just bad; in the way it tries to construct arguments out of nothing but hot air and misdirection, it borders on the mendacious. Even beyond that, it's just useless at making its case. It really should go; it's useless for anyone interested in the possibility that there is no such thing as natural monopoly. But (sigh) that would lead to an edit war, plus I can't find anything better in that line of thought, so never mind. Rd232 00:11, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)

text: At least http://www.mises.org/journals/scholar/Sechrest7.pdf, on public goods, to take another one from that journal at random, is interesting, though not for the reason the author thinks. The examples of privateering and lighthouses (non-govt provision of public goods) are interesting: the former only works as national defence (as opposed to licenced piracy) to the extent that the privateers are blinded by patriotism to their self-interest; and the latter needs some social mechanism (ie disapproval of free riders) to avoid the tragedy of the commons the purely homo economicus free market would create.

Talk:Nicaragua

message: Article 4
The State recognizes the individual, the family, and the community as the origin and the end of its activity, and is organized to achieve the common good, assuming the task of promoting the human development of each and every Nicaraguan, inspired by Christian values, socialist ideals, practices based on solidarity, democracy and humanism, as universal and general values, as well as the values and ideals of Nicaraguan culture and identity.
Article 5
Liberty, justice, respect for the dignity of the human person, political and social pluralism, the recognition of the distinct identity of the indigenous peoples and those of African descent within the framework of a unitary and indivisible state, the recognition of different forms of property, free international cooperation and respect for the free self-determination of peoples, Christian values, socialist ideals, and practices based on solidarity, and the values and ideals of the Nicaraguan culture and identity, are the principles of the Nicaraguan nation.
Political pluralism ensures the free organization and participation of all political parties in the electoral processes established in the Constitution and the laws; and their participation in the political, economic and social affairs of the country.
Christian values ensure brotherly love, the reconciliation between the members of the Nicaraguan family, the respect for individual diversity without any discrimination, the respect for and equal rights of persons with disabilities, and the preference for the poor.
The socialist ideals promote the common good over individual egoism, seeking to create an ever more inclusive, just and fair society, promoting an economic democracy which redistributes national wealth and eliminates exploitation among human beings.

message: As a non-mathematician, but engineer, this article is somewhat confusing.  It indiscriminately mixes chat about any base logarithms in with that of the natural base logs, instead of focusing on the natural logs and how they are different from the others.
It's missing what I recall as the defining characteristic of the natural logs:
"But the one property that goes to the essence of e and makes it so natural for logarithms and situations of exponential growth and decay is this:  d(e^x/dx) = e^x."
