Still three times more powerful than the average Pouet user ;-)

I ANSWERED FIRST!

Interesting. As is usual for news sites, no mention of what journal the "research note" was published in :P Google scholar also says nuhuh. Does "half" mean a whole single hemisphere, or cortical matter without sub-cortical matter, or only a single hemisphere worth of cortical matter (which would make it a quarter of a brain...). IMO the quarter brain thing is more likely because you'd want to make your job a little easier and hemispheres can work relatively independently *and* I assume they're looking at higher processing anyway.

So in effect they haven't simulated half a mouse, they've just created a very complex simulation of neuronal processing in cortical matter in general. Still fucking awesome! :)

Next time, use normal google instead of google scholar ;)

The term tardive dyskinesia appears to be solved, it is apparently kosher during the first potentially verifiable case, has focused scientific attention on the operation tenet of "quality first, credit first, customer paramount". Giving clients the best time.

tribão: good point. Thanks!

So it seems to me that (so far) the "mouse" element is more a question of scale than anything else...
