From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I discovered wikipedia 2-3 years ago while searching for information on the internet to do my homework, place them in my Favorites, and ever since come to search for other informations. Since finding valuable information in Internet is just like finding a needle in a haystack.

But just started posting on Nov. 26, 2003, in an article talk:Generation_X.

[edit] My Life

0-18years 5months: In Indonesia 18years-25years: In Taiwan

Undergraduate student in central Taiwan majoring in CSIE. Mostly doing little editing in Wikipedia especially "See also" subsection. Not an english native speaker. Articles I started mostly based on inspiration rather than depth-knowldge on it. Hoping those articles could became a good, worth reading articles.

  • I think wikipedia could became Symbol of Human Civilization.
  • I think it would be much interesting if wikipedia could place applet, flash animation, and movies.

[edit] Proverbs & Quotations

I think proverbs & quotations are the same thing. Proverbs usually older and people forget their author so they were divide into countries. While quotations are new/fresh, people still know the author. So they were divide by the author's name.

[edit] suit me & I believe

  • prepare for the worst, hope for the best

[edit] mine

  • A beautiful day starts with delicious breakfast.
  • When choose friends of the same background you were tend to be separated, pick friends with same dreams you were tend to be united.
  • You can lie to some people for some times, but not to all the people and all the time.
  • God and evil are seeking the same glory, but with different ways. (glory: as much followers as possible)
  • The earlier you fell, the earlier you learn how to get up and stand with your own feet, and learn not to fell again. Unless you die on your first fell, but that's rarely happened, I guess.
  • God puts us in a terrible condition not to complain but to improve the terrible condition.

[edit] pinpoint theory

[edit] Architecture of life

This might be a dream or a plan or a guidance or a science. And it is growing and always being revised.

Architecture of life is art and science of designing and planning on how to live a life, in purpose achieving a life to the fullest. That every person have their own definition of happy success life. Therefore, knowing the definition of happy life in their early age is essential, still they must perform their responsibility to society.

[edit] Creation of life

First the invention of electricity, then transistor, then computer, then AI, then robot, then cyborg, then self-replicating cyborg.

[edit] Simple Q&A

Reference desk: Computing, Science, Humanities, Entertainment

1. Why water put in a container for a long time (a few weks maybe) could cause the container surface slippery? What really caused it? roscoe_x 11:41, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Per Matt, see biofilm. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 17:41, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

2. What's the average price to build a wind turbine?

Let say a 2-3 MWatt wind turbine. roscoe_x 18:35, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I put "wind power 2 mw" into google and this was the first hit GE 2.5 MW WindTurbine There is an ordering information link that requires you address and contact information. I would suppose that a significant part of the price is delivery and installation, seeing as the technical specs say that the rotor blade diameter is 100 meters. That would explain those trucks you sometimes see on the road with what look like giant wings carried on their flatbeds. According to this article Wind Power FAQ there is a capitol cost of about $1.5 million per Mega watt for wind power. But that probably includes the economy of scale for a wind farm with many turbines. This company Home Turbine sells a 10 Kw home version with a 7 m diameter rotor for around $27,900.
