Comment There should be no Unlimited plans at all (Score 1) 305

Wireless bandwidth is not cheap - there should be no Unlimited plans at all. The plans should be in a loose relationship with the real costs, otherwise the overuse of the plan is causing losses - if an extra GB costs an extra 1$ go ahead, charge it and spend the money to extend the network. But why throttle? This is so socialist...

Comment Thou shall not compare different codecs by PSNR... (Score 1) 378

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_signal-to-noise_ratio "When comparing compression codecs it is used as an approximation to human perception of reconstruction quality, therefore in some cases one reconstruction may appear to be closer to the original than another, even though it has a lower PSNR (a higher PSNR would normally indicate that the reconstruction is of higher quality). One has to be extremely careful with the range of validity of this metric; it is only conclusively valid when it is used to compare results from the same codec (or codec type) and same content."
