Elder Scrolls Fans in Robot Research?

31 October 2013 9:31:04 AM

I have to wonder, with the acronym mentioned here:

Recently, the U.S. Special Operations Command issued a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for proposals and research in support of the development of Tactical Assault Light Operator Suit (TALOS)—what the media refers to as the "Iron Man Suit." … Now, where is the BAA that asks for similar research proposals about the psychological aspects of the people actually wearing these proposed suits? In addition to any physical requirements that may be needed for wearing TALOS, what sort of person will be able to effectively use TALOS?

Chuckle Worthy Traceroute

Ok, if you are on a Mac or Linux machine, try this in a shell:

traceroute 216.81.59.173

If you're on Windows, open a command prompt and use tracert. Give it a bit - the payoff is worth it :)

I think today's xkcd is about the intersection in the title (or one very much like it, anyway). When I go through that one, I have no clue what they expect of me....
