I personally do not believe that I have the math or computing skills to be able to do that, but it would not surprise me if one or two of the people who frequent this forum were able.
I found out that Fuco has an handle on this subject. As he has written a thesis on genetic programming.
Hey people, I have seen you guys discussing complex mathematical and geometricla problems relating to solar panel shapes etc...
And then I have seen how Bill Gross solves problems by using evolutionary algorithms, actually I have seen other guys solving problems using that same method.
Here is the link to Bill Gross TED presentation:
http://www.ted.com/talks/bill_gross_on_new_energy.html
I would like to know if you guys can take advantage of such computing techniques to solve certain problems.
Thanks
Have you guys ever heard about Focus Fusion?
I don't have the scientific of technical know-how to figure out if it is even true or not.
it's me being overly suspicious, or anyone registered after me has a login name that sounds like spam? Look :

Nah, it's just you hiding in the crowd
.
You are the real spammer here
Haha. Welcome to Newmars, CheckDavid! (I really missed saying that, haha)
Thanks ^^
I already started posting some stuff, just to get used to the forum.
I am still dizzy with all the sections
I think that the dangers to Earth from not having a second planet available is one of the stronger arguments for terraforming and colonizing Mars. With regards to terraformation, though, I tend to wonder if it's actually worth the cost, given that it's presumably somewhere in the range of billions to trillions of dollars with relatively little return compared to simply doming large areas of the planet as needed.
Oh!!! So if it is in the range of the Billions, it is cheaper than the war on Iraq lol
So, who wants to weight the benefits between those two?
Hey people, I am about to share with you another TED talk.
This time Stephen Petranek lists a speculative lists of ways the human race could be erased from the history of the universe.
The one that got into third place are the threat of Solar Flares.
And guess what is the proposed solution? Yeah, you guessed it.
If you are in a hurry jump to 17:50
Ahh!
Why can't I embed the video here for everyone to enjoy?
Anyway, here is a link:
Hello, here is an old talk on Ted by Will Wright, where he presents his new game project.
I guess that his project turned out to be commercialized as a game called Spore, which I never tried, though as for I have seen turned out to be a bit disappointing.
But still I leave you with the reminiscence of what I think is a great project, and very interesting idea, as it can actually educate children on topics such as space colonization, terraforming, space travel and even evolution.

Are you sure CheckDavid was a spammer? There was someone in the IRC channel using that name a few days ago. We actually had some conversations with about Linux, atmospheric chemistry, and graphene. He seemed glad to have stumbled across the IRC channel and interested in hanging out on NewMars. Was it really all an elaborate ruse?
Yeah man, you uncovered my evil plan to take over.... The WORLD (Mars)
