SunOS is still *probably* (dont flame me) a better platform for high end servers
do you really mean SunOS? or are you trying to say solaris and just forgot how to spell it?
just wondering, it would be nice if you got your terms right, cause SunOS and solaris aren't from the same code base, from the same company sure, but SunOS got dumped a while back. I think there might still be a few refs to sunos in the config files, but solaris is not to be mistaken for sunos
any word on if any format changes will be comming up? like the terms journalistic integrity will be used around the office(not just in jokes), perhaps manditory fact checking?

Get a clue, I'm not going to use a Mac to virtual host 300 websites,
well, now that OSX has the FreeBSD core to it, it gets a default boost into the SMP arena, and also extreamly good I/O, makes for a great webserver from the sounds of it.
and I'm not going to use a linux box to suft the net at home.
personly i think the fact that you suft the net at all is a personal habit you shouldn't be sharing:)

Then they should just be installing Linux or BSD, or at least dual-booting, yes? I've never seen one of these Swiss Army computers actually function well
well good thing that its not made by the swiss(jk). seriously, its not like this isn't a 3rd party tool, WTF are you complaining about?
Besides, OS X is meant for the server market, so what the hell do you need a GUI for in the first place?
uhm, i believe they are talking about OSX the CLIENT PLATFORM ok so now we know you don't even read the SUMMARY of the story, and you have NO FSCKING clue about what OSX is.
a giant claymore may weigh more than 10lbs i don't know, however a traditionaly or semi-traditionaly(like the shinto katanas) forged katana on average weights in between 2 and 4 lbs.
Actually running is better than lifting free weights. Your body still has to do the same repair stuff after running and its better for your cardiovascular system then weight lifting. Ideally, you would do both but if you could only do one running or some other aerobic exercise such as swimming, biking, etc. will be better than lifting.
running is not better than lifting, read the original message again, it says loose weight, AND gain muscle. running will help you gain a little muscle, but pretty much only in legs. running however is a great cardo program
THE fastest way to loose weight and tone up a bit would be to find a traditional northern style kung-fu class. THAT will whip you into shape.
kung fu is a cardo style exercise that also makes use of small free weights to give you some upper body strength.
I can't remember ever having the IDE crash, and it's very powerful.
I used VS for several years, and while there was much that i liked about it, there where a few that i didn't. One is I have had the IDE crash, but thats not the big issue, the big issue is I've had the compiler flake out on certain programs. the compiler would exit out w/ an error(the error was a long complicated thing that made 0 sense, even to the MS people) and a second compile would finish fine. sounds like a small thing, but turns into a huge annoying festering ball of hate when you've been coding for 16 hours and have to compile twice EVERY TIME.
2, I've never found it more powerful than XEmacs, but thats just me.
3 whats w/ that FSCKing MDI? that sucks, i have multiple monitors, they rule, and i can't spread out the source files!!!!
sometimes the intellisense just stopped working, and just about nothing you could do would fix it, short of shutting down VS and deleting a certain file.
there was something else i wanted to vent on but dont remember
whats good?
like you said the edit and recompile while still debugging is a huge time saver sometimes.
aaaand... thats about it. I have gripes about everything, don't get me wrong, its just that VS isn't the panacea of programming that some people make it out to be.
COM not a bad protocol, people, in fact it's quite clever. first off COM is not a protocol, since COM cannot talk outside of the box its on, you may be thinking DCOM or COM+. also read the link below, DCOM is a bad protocol, its over complicates the conversation between the two boxes, most COM components suck as DCOM components cause you don't take into account network latency or anything else when you first write a COM object.

It was my impression that some ACs on Slashdot actually copied and posted the spec verbatim
well it is true, but microsoft cannot prove that they aggreed to the EULA. If a simple way around viewing the EULA exists, then microsoft did not take sufficient measures to protect its IP.
This suggests to me that either Kubrick had an idea that he liked but couldn't ever get it work or it was something he sort of liked but not enough to actually ever do. In either case this film probably won't do Kubrick's reputation any good, especially if it's mauled by writers, editors and so on.
if this is the film I'm thinking of, it has taken so long because the film details the life of a person, and kubrick thought it would be really neat to use the same person. ie film some when the kid was 5 wait a few years, film some more when the kid was 10. etc. he bought up a ton of the same film stock when he started the project, so that he would be filming on the same stuff throughout the project. meaning that the quality and color remains constant through the entirty of the film.
Is there a patent? Mayhaps someone can write a filesystem which implements this. I'm really doubtful that this is anything that will more than marginally affect effective hard drive capacities, and at some cost in overhead, but it might be worth playing with on a UNIX i doublt that a filesystem is what is needed, sounds like a daemon scanning in the background during file copies, etc. is more of whats going on. that and somesort of database to store the hashes.
Has anyone tried making something like a MSDN library for Linux? This is one of the things that is really nice about programming for Windows (esp. when developing using a pay per minute internet connection). Having everything in one place (including journal articals) makes finding obscure information so much easier.
Actually there is a group thats working one something like this.
actually, they are working on a standard for opensource documentation formatting. and thinking about acting as a central repository. they will have tools to convert too and from their format(docbook? last i heard) to older/legacy formats
as a part of this there was discussion for working on a search engine/framework for looking at the documentation on your system(so you can keep everything on your system, or look at the internet version)
I'm afraid that I cannot remember their name off the top of my head. they have a mailing list that I read from time to time.

Just because someone doesn't care about their computer for its own sake doesn't mean they should be forced to use an inferior operating system. I would very much like to be able to recommend linux to my friends, but right now although I use it myself, I would definitely not recommend it to most of my friends.
no they don't have to use linux, or an inferior OS, just suggest Be to them, and all is good.

It sounds like you may need a database engine doing most of the work.
To allow multiple people to access the data, but make sure that everyone gets updated data, you will probably want to rely on transactions. PostgreSQL is the only opensource database that I know of with support for transactions. All of the bigger commercial databases support them as well.
transactions basicly use an intelligent locking scheme to keep people out of records that are being updated/accessed. This won't last long, and requests can be queued up so that except for a slight delay(time ranging on the complexity of the transaction) it will not be noticable by the end user.
transactions also have data integrity built in, in case of a power outage/crash they will not be only partially complete. They are an all or nothing option.
